    Another great night at Bresson! Wonderful atmosphere and great food. A big shout out for service. Asked for an espresso martini at the end of the evening and while the bartender had left the team improvised and presented the perfect cocktail! Well done to them. I look forward to the next visit! Thanks!

    I was surprised by the fact that we had to keep asking for water - service was rather slow.

    Seven of us went for dinner with the Christmas menu on offer as we were here the previous year and it was really good. Unfortunately a different experience this time, I ordered the same vegetarian option as last year and the serving was half the size. I complained and to be fair was offered additional sides (I got chips), however I'd rather that my main course was a fair size in the first place. With wine we paid €137 each and on reflection it definitely was poor value.
