"We visited on the 27th December for a late lunch, our party was 5 adults and a 7 year old. We were sat in a booth- a bit of a tight squeeze and did result in some kind of elbow jousting game that we could have done without. We ordered our drinks (a must try is the strawberry and mint margarita which did take a while to arrive; this was an ongoing issue and most probably down to the fact that their very competent bar man was making drinks for the whole restaurant with 4-5 servers sending through orders all the time. Our food was amazing, we ordered a platter for 2- this is well worth the price tag and lets you try many different dishes without the headache of trying to choose! Our son had a burger from the kids menu which he devoured (all parents reading this will be well aware of how rare this can be . We had no room for pudding so cannot comment on these. I would most definitely recommend this restaurant for their food and drinks but would suggest to the management that they do a bit more training with their FOH staff to tighten up their service to avoid communication issues and a feeling of neglect."

"Should really update and follow your time schedule for accuracy. Suggest people to call in ahead if you can. Today (Wednesday) the info says open at got to the Cafe at the chairs hadn't even been taken off the tables. A man just walks to the door and puts a hand written sign on it, sorry today we open at without any explanation. Would have liked to support a local Cafe. To our disappointment, we had to walk somewhere else instead."

"stay 2 nights (mon and weds) very friendly, beautiful rooms with comfortable beds. excellent evening dinner especially sea bass with parmesan risotto. somewhat disappointed with first breakfast royale as poached ei was hard and muffin quite dry. but squirting with chopped eggs (painted specifically for soft yellow) was nice second time. bar and lounge seems very popular and busy, always a good sign. would remain and recommend friends."

"We ended our intimate wedding celebration with a meal at Jacques. It was our first time there, but it certainly won't be our last. The food was delicious and the ambiance, decor, and service were all top-notch. A pleasant surprise was the live music on Wednesday nights by the Emma Skip duo, who added to the already perfect evening. We absolutely loved it. Meal Type: Dinner."

"After the one vegan place that is open at night in Swansea is taking a break we decided to come here. There is a separate vegan menu and we were asked upon arriving at the restaurant did we want a vegan menu or if we had any allergies. There were quite a few vegan meals, particularly plentiful at breakfast time. I had the sweet potato and felafel salad. What I was most pleased about was the salad ingredients were well distributed. It wasn’t just a couple of tomatoes then all lettuce. I also got a cucumber and mint sparkling juice. You could order from your table which I really appreciate as I don’t like having to check that they heard me say vegan. Also had the potato bravas. They were little cubes but nice. I prefer larger pieces though. My partner had the Mexican superbowl which he enjoyed. Staff were nice and there was plenty of space. Updated from previous review on 2022-09-02"

"The restaurant had a cozy atmosphere and the service was friendly but the food was just okay. I ordered a sandwich and salad combo and while it was filling, it wasn't anything special. The prices were reasonable but I expected more considering the positive reviews I had read. Overall, it's a decent place for a quick bite to eat but I wouldn't go out of my way to come back."

"A truly gluten free Italian restaurant in the heart of London seems too good to miss, and it was. Absolutely everything on the menu is gluten free, so there is no risk of cross contamination, and there is real depth of understanding of vegan and dairy free needs as well. It is a family run business and there is great sense of rapport amongst the staff, which spreads to their understanding of customer needs. Food is delicious, and served quickly (we had a vegan salad, canollini and ravioli all excellent) with quirky, healthy drinks (gluten free beer is also available, of course) and a superlative chocolate brownie to finish. Service is quick and efficient yet warm. It is a small cafe sized restaurant, so booking absolutely essential in the hour we were there they turned away at least ten potential groups because of lack of space. They could use twice the space, given the demand I saw. It is not suitable for customers with a severe nut allergy as they use a lot of nuts in their recipes. The only reason I hesitate to share a good review of this great find is that I want to be sure of a table next time!"

"We had a really nice meal with friends and the food was lovely. My only critisism would be that at £7.50, the prawn cocktail starter was overpriced. The prawns and lettuce were very fresh but there was no bread with it as you would expect so it was quite a small portion for the money considering you can get a main meal for £10-12. It was quite busy but the staff was attentive and they were quick with both the food and drink orders. My main meal wasn't bought out with the others and I had to ask if they could check where it was as the other 3 had started eating their meals. It arrived a few minutes later. Overall a good experience and we would definitely go back again."

"This restaurant review is a disaster. The coffee cups were only half full and when we requested hot milk, we were served cold milk. The toast was lukewarm/cold and the bacon sandwich had only 2 small pieces of fatty bacon. We complained to the waitress but received no action or feedback. We used to visit two or three times a week, but lately the standards have fallen, especially with the appearance of the serving staff. There are a few exceptions, such as the young lady who has been there since it opened. I think this will be our last visit as there is now plenty of competition."

"this place has about 8 vegetarian pizzas that can all be made with vegan mozzarella. they also serve a vegan salad. I had the 9 Lois pizza that was a great tasting fresh stone baked option with balsamico glazed med veg truffle oil. I was pampered by pure vegan pizzerias unfortunately the vegan cheese they used did not taste the best. it was like a supermarket brand. they had some vegan starters in the offer, but I tried the flower wings with a spicy buffalo sauce. they were very different to other flower wings that I had elsewhere, a dry Indian cube coating with al dente flower flowers flourishes the soße served in the side (would not interfere with them again) . they have a large beverage range that I went for a blueberry mojito mojito moock tail. it was not very well mixed, but after touching it was a lot tasty (even if the blueberries blocked the straw we sat outside the service was fast (expected to pay a little too long)"

"we have booked to my man's birthday to eat 4.30 clock before we go to a show. we arrived 10 minutes early and were asked to wait in the hall on a sofa with several other people, then were shown to sit at the right time. we were not particularly welcome as we were taken down as there were so many people to dive around and then, as we tried to navigate the table, said the hostess, we had the table for 1 hour 30 minutes. Happy. When the waiter came to take our order, he said how they are, we answered well and asked him how he was, he replied atmospherically- only halfway through my layer. there was another table that celebrated a 60th birthday and frankly it was more like a Henne party that constantly screamed and singed, up to the point where we could not hear. eating was nice enough, but really the setting of the staff was not great. during booking we had the possibility of standard or high-seat - I chose high seating and honestly no warning, what that meant? I have also made special wish that it was my man's birthday and nothing was done? have they received this? I'm not sure what the point of this box is on the booking if it doesn't mean anything? to be fair, I could have said at the arrival, but the personal was so annoying and scarce, I could not really be harassed as we already made a cake for him. it wasn't the worst place I had eaten, and I would probably go back when someone invited me, but it didn't bother me to visit again."

"Stopped in for brunch on a Thursday early noon after a quick scout on TripAdvisor for places to eat on Morningside Road. A bustling cafe with stripped back wooden tables contrasting against rather elaborate metal light fittings and a mismatch of metal or simple cotton fabric covered chairs, we were luckily shown to the last available table in the back room. The cafe appears small from the outside but is actually deceptively big. Music was easygoing chill out which added to the relaxed atmosphere. Smiling waitresses helped also. We ordered coffees and eggs royale and our waitress promptly brought a jug of water over. Coffees came soon after and we were pleased that they were good...read more"

"I have Coeliac Disease so we chose this place for breakfast as they had an abundance of gluten free options and was only a short walk from our hotel. I’m so glad we did as the staff were very friendly and attentive. Quick service. It was lovely to see that they were a dog friendly cafe as well (they even have a dog menu!! which was a lovely bonus to see all the lovely dogs enjoying some breakfast as well. I had the gluten free “Eggs a la swamp” which was poached eggs with a gluten free ciabatta roll, smashed avocado and a roasted tomato sauce. My non-gf partner had Eggs Royale. It was absolutely delicious and the poached eggs were cooked to perfection! Unfortunately we aren’t local but if we are ever back in Whitby, we would definitely go back!"

"Our first visit today. Lovely welcome on arrival, drinks arrived quickly and it was very relaxed. We both ordered pasta dishes arrabiata neapolitana. Really delicious food! The decor is clean and fresh with a second room to the rear. It was just us two eating in although a couple of people came in for takeaway. The cafe does not have a drinks licence but you are welcome to take your own and they do not charge corkage. However they are only open during the day so perhaps this is not an issue. We will definitely visit again."

"fish and chip Friday for fritte’s and voul au vents. on Friday in holborn, good atmosphere, tasty eating and over 52 beers choose. my favorite is the strawberry fruit beer and the Kriek-Kirschenbier. as veggie and since this restaurant specializes in moule and rotisserie huhn I was not quite sure what to expect, but the veggie option of leek courgette and pak choi voul au vents in a blue cheese sauce with a side of double boiled chips was really delicious and definitiw different. my dinning kumpel had a red pfeffer and tomato half redisserie huhn, which he quoted was the best he had in london. the portions are massive, so the desert had to skip, but the desert menu looked incredible, from chocolate fountain with salted caramel ice and bacon cheesecake will get a visit in belgo again only desert to get good service tasting something else deffo a visit worth 8/10"

"We went for breakfast this morning Sunday 1st September staff were very welcoming we both ordered poached eggs with salmon the server asked if there were any allergies I told her I was lactose intolerant so I didn’t want the hollandaise sauce also no spread on the muffin the server did point out that muffins contain milk so said I could have toast instead which I thought was very helpful of her to point that out I asked if I could have brown bread but she said they didn’t have any which I found a bit strange given there is a market over the road and also Waitrose? The food eventually arrived after some delay but when we cut into the poached eggs they were rock hard also the meal was completely cold. We should have complained but we were waiting to be asked if everything was alright to which we would have complained nobody approached us so we left. The price was £28 which we found very overpriced. This is our second visit and sadly we will not be visiting again very very disappointed. We feel that the place needs a revamp ."

"What a delightful Branch of the Lounge Franchise. The staff are very pleasant and accommodating. The Menu is varied as one would expect from the franchise, and the standard of cook and presentation on the plate is exactly as one would expect, so no disappointment there. In fact, after having visiting this Branch for the second time, I would venture to say the standard is somewhat higher here. After having a delightful Lunch, I thanked the kitchen staff, making a point of letting them know how much our dining party appreciated their efforts in producing good clean food with real evidence of care and attention. When, as a customer you receive this type of service, and it's consistent, recommending such a venue for family or groups is effortless. Well done to all the staff here a terrific team."

"My husband and me were just passing by and decided to come in and have a coffee. The atmosphere was fine and the smell of the food was very appealing but, we had to deal with a manager called Ani with no education at all. We were trying to explain to her , we only wanted a coffee and go and she was telling us off; not listening to us and inviting us to leave because we were not going to have any kind of food. This was a very weird experience, and a very disrespectful one . My husband could not articulate a word and I just decided to leave without any more words with this kind on unprofessional and disrespectful manager ?. We are not coming back again."
