   Just lovely food and friendly service. Was very busy so the drinks took a while to come out but it was totally acceptable given how busy it was.

   Service very extremely very slow . I had booked a table for 12pm . we were put at the end of a table that another part of 5 were seated. I would have expected a table for two I booked in advanced.

   We visited here for the first time this weekend. The food was delicious, lovely attentive staff and gorgeous surroundings. I just wish they had better toilets..!

   Food was delicious and came out quickly despite it being very busy! Would definitely book in advance, especially on weekends, as there was a bit of a queue. French toast was amazing - would recommend!

   Great location and decor. Food super tasty but quite pricey. Service pretty poor and slow.

   Been previously and really enjoyed the food but this time was not up to previous standards. Some of the food was okay, but the fried chicken french toast was gristly with parts that looked undercooked. When we spoke to the waiter, he explained to me that it was chicken thigh and was ‘meant to be like this’, despite having discolouration and looking not right. I’ve had chicken thigh before but this one didn’t sit right with me and put me off the rest of my food. We paid regardless, but the waiter came over to me multiple times discussing the chicken despite it already being paid for, insinuating that I was wrong to have been put off by it.

   Had a bit of a wait for a booked table, which wasn't great as we were were booked at theatre. Crowded waiting area on entry and were pushed out despite saying a table had been booked. Managed to get to the table seating area and told them about booking Kept being told 'yes yes we'll find you'. Could see they were trying to juggle reservations and those queuing to get in. Looked flustered. After we were seated the service and food was good. Just needs more structure at front desk to provide a great experience.

   Such a great venue but it felt very chaotic. Different staff members, drinks arrived after food, confusion over the bill. All very pleasant but just a little stressful

    There were 7 people for lunch today. Some food was okay, some wasn’t. The Buddha bowl came without falafels and very little avocado. The rest of the mains were okay. We moved onto cakes which were pretty dire. One had a cinnamon pastry which was so dry that we had to send it back. It was replaced by another which was also dry. We then had to ask several times for coffees before they eventually arrived. We wanted our coffees with our cake. It arrived long after. Our table was never cleared from main meal before we had cake and coffee. Although the staff were all very pleasant they seemed to lack direction and I think this was because nobody seemed to be in charge Come on Medicine, a beautiful setting but the food was not up to standard or the service.
