    Excellent. A special thank you to the waiting staff, very professional. It has become so rare these days that it is worth highlighting.

    Great food and good value for money especially pre theatre menu. Only one small disappointment was that birthday desert plate was just a desert on a plate and no message nor any candle. I should be happy to be offered a desert plate but would have been nicer to have a candle etc since we were celebrationg 50th birthday.

    Foid was excellent. Overall was a little disappointed with the setting which was too bright and not intimate enough for the price being charged. Staff very attentive and friendly. Had scallops and beef both superb

    Really lovely bistro. We had the working lunch last saturday. Just amazing value at £45 for 3 courses. We took the £59 per head which included a glass of champers, coffee and sweets after. The first course of venison ragu with gnocchi. The meat and flavour was intense and moreosh The main was the belly pork with roscoff onion The food was wonderful. Meaty jus and crackling to die for Dessert was a modern interpretation of an apple crumble - not too sweet, not too sharp. Just right

    Loved the Wild Honey before, but fell off the radar when closed so wonderful to get reacquainted. Very impressive venue, good if slightly inconsistent service ( for this level of venue) Otherwise, a great menu with extra breadth, as one would expect. Food was truly excellent, beautifully served, and exquisite combinations. The Scottish Wild Hare Shoulder was superlative, and very many thanks to AD himself for the in depth dish explanations. Would highly recommend, and hope to revisit soon
