Birthday Party · 12 guests · November 2022

Great service, excellent food (we had two chefs in our party who have worked in Michelin starred kitchens and both loved the food) all in a beautiful room. Would reiterate, service was outstanding (thank you Tom) and the events team are super helpful. Everything ran like clockwork and we all had a great evening.

Nothing. All brilliant
