Slow service. Didn’t check up on us and had to wait to order then go to the till to pay. Cheeky to add the mandatory service charge when service was non existent

It was very loud as the Scotland game was on , we were in pre theatre and the food we ordered was very nice if a tad overpriced

Hi Andrew, Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review - it is much appreciated! We are glad you enjoyed your food. It does get fairly busy during Scotland games especially, so our apologies is it was a bit too bustling. We hope to see you again some time soon, we have a beer and burger deal on during the week for £15 for example. Cheers, Raven management

Good food, portion sizes were excellent and there was a slight misunderstanding over the contents of the order but was resolved amicably.

It was good experience, nice staff, lively place but a bit of direction on food portions would be helpful. 3 for £20 is great value but 2 could have shared and instead 2 had six portions and left lots of waste which was just a shame…. Will know next time. X
The RavenResponded on 13 October 2024
Hi Karen, Glad you enjoyed your meal with us and agree our popular 3 for £20 deal is good value. We apologise you had a bit too much food than you would like. It can be hard sometimes as we aren't to know people's appetites and don't want to come across condescending. If someone asks we will always try to be as accurate as possible but probably wouldn't interject unprompted. Too much is always better than too little in my eyes, can always take it home in our takeaway containers and have some tasty late night snacks! Thanks again for your feedback though, it is always useful to hear.
