"We chose Persian cottage to have a private dinning upstairs for our wedding reception. This involved only immediate family and we wanted somewhere where we could enjoy amazing food and relax. Persian cottage (Mohsan) went above and beyond to make the whole experience perfect. They listened to all of our individual requests for food and allowed the florist and wedding planner to completed transform the room to make it perfect for us. They made sure they looked after everyone involved to complete the room transformation. Allowing them to arrive the day before and the morning of the wedding. Making sure they all felt at ease and had everything that they needed. They are all so kind and caring listening to everything we wanted and exceeded my expectations. They even added some of their own traditional and personal touches to finish off making this experience so unique, personal and comfortable. The food was absolutely outstanding as it always is from Persian cottage. We had a mixture of all the starters to share because how can you chose just one. They are all so amazing, authentic and home cooked like my dad makes! If you haven’t tried the starters then you need to order one of each with the bread to eat them with. Absolutely amazing! The presentation was beautiful and the attention to detail made it perfect. We all chose our own mains and I got some extra dishes for people to share everyone was so happy with their choices. Everyone commented on the authentic food and amazing flavours that we all love. The whole team made sure everything was presented amazingly and come out all together. We then had their baclava for dessert and it was amazing flavour and so fresh when eating it. Although we were all extremely full we had to get the rest boxed up to take with us. The whole day ran smoothly and was stress free thanks to the amazing team at Persian cottage. Thank you so much for making our wedding day so perfect in every way! I would definitely recommend Persian cottage for a meal or an occasion as it never disappoints!"

"The place itself seems nice enough a good aesthetic that screams rock n 'roll. However, the online presence really lets the place down. Book a Table says the website. I booked a table. Only to receive an email saying I didn 't need to. When we arrived, two tables were marked Reserved . Based on information found on the various online sources we could find, my other half (looking to celebrate her birthday), chose SF having seen a selection of grilled cheese sandwiches , and offers on a range of cocktails . The evening got off to a poor start when we got to the bar, and the only two non lager/cider options on the draught drinks were both out of stock. Undeterred, we asked for one of the range of cocktails , only to be told they were not doing cocktails. Undeterred, we finally found (barely) suitable beverages and found a table. We waited for the menu, and were disappointed to find it was much smaller than the online presence had led us to believe. Calling over one of the staff, we were told We don 't do those anymore . When we pointed out that this really should be updated online, we got Yeah, its all changing . At which point we left to go home. Where we could enjoy drinks we wanted, and the full array of delights available from local takeaways. One word of advice if you promise burger and chips, and deliver burger and chips, I 'm happy. But if I visit on the basis of online information, and you don 't have what you 've marketed, I 'm going to be elsewhere."
