My friends had brilliant pizzas and really enjoyed them. I had spinach ravioli which was great, it was good to be able to choose a slightly smaller size meal as I don’t eat as much and don’t like to waste good food. Having the vegetarian choice was good too, I do eat meat but just love spinach and Italian cheese!! The welcome was warm and friendly and have eaten here before so new it would be great to return for a great meal. Thank you

Le Cafe du Marche continues to offer a first class dining experience. An interesting menu, excellent food, a particularly good sparkling wine to start and very attentive service. Thoroughly recommended.

Absolutely delightful and totally delicious food. Each dish was superb. We were a group of three and shared pickles, artichoke with ricotta, and burrata with raisins . Yummy. The mains we had were ravioli filled with pheasant, mushrooms and Marsala. Divine. I’d go back just for that. We shared a rhubarb trifle with honeycomb for dessert. Again, delicious. The service was calm and friendly. Unobtrusive. There was very low music playing so we could hear each other and chat for hours. The interior design was very English, reminding us of Andrew Edmund’s in town. We loved it. A bit pricey but I did not mind for this special occasion as it was all pretty wonderful.

It was perfect from start to finish. The food is flavourful, original yet classic and delicious. The restaurant is beautifully lighted, the noise is surprisingly low for such a wide space, and a special thank you to our waiter James who was lovely, gave us good advice and a special treat for my mum’s birthday. It’s a truly special place !

The food was amazing and the staff were all very professional and welcoming. We even got extra courses that weren't on the menu as Christmas specials.
