Food was delicious! Atmosphere was a little noisy though, and water bottles and glasses were on the opposite side of the venue to where we were seated. Would be helpful to have a couple of water stations in my opinion, or water offered as standard when being seated at the table perhaps.

A very special night highlighted by a fantastic tasting menu of the highest quality. the service was impeccable - reliable & informative. the wines selected from the drinks menu were as described to us by the drinks person. the view from our table to the river outside added to the occasion.
