"I met one night after work a friend. we're always here when we were working around the corner. After we were not so many years, we were looking forward to a little nostalgia, but were bitterly disappointed from the beginning to the end. it took at least 15 minutes to get someone's attention just to order a drink. we ordered a side of the artisan brot and butter for the table, which is as slightly roasted cut brot, without explanation. After I had waited five minutes without luck to get someone's attention, I went to our waiter to ask why we were dead instead of the advertised brot. then I was told that they were called from the artisan bread. When I asked if we could have normal brot (instead of roasted, I was told that the toast on our table was the last thing they had! the main course, it must be said, was delicious! bangers and mash a classic! to dessert! we shared a treacle tart with clotted cream. the amount of cream that was presented was a sweat! a teaspoon full. my friend asked about the part of the cream and asked if we could have a little more. he wanted to investigate. he came back about 10 minutes later with 2 bowls of cocose cream! we then learned that the cream was already served was only double cream and not the advertised dorset clotted cream as they had run out of this and had now fled from the standard double cream! it seemed that the kitchen simply did not have their waiters from what was served or what was available to order. they also seemed so sad to be among servants, to this occasion I must give a negative review. I will still go back to our other favorite wine bars from davy, namely the becher house in london bridge, davy’s at st james and the crusting pipe in covent garden. we have not been completely discontinued :"

We went on a week day for lunch, so a quiet time which was just what we wanted. It was perfect for us. The staff stand out they are discreet, polite, cheerful and super efficient. Great place.

First off the name of this venue is not as advertised. It is Davy's. It made the venue hard to locate. Service was slow and overall the food ok but not out of this world. A little disappointing!

Having g booked the Cellars, apon arrival they were not open so we were ushered upstairs to what more resembled an extended off licence with small tables. Not quite the dining experience we were looking forward to, and given there was not one other customer, we decided to leave and eat somewhere more convivial. View menu

When entering the cellar by Davy’s wine, it’s not immediately clear where the restaurant is. It was also incredibly busy as there is a wine bar downstairs too. Once shown to the dining area, the service was pretty good. Food was well priced for the Holborn area, and arrived piping hot. Overall an inexpensive dining experience.

This is one of the chain of Davy's wine bars which in various locations I have visited for over 30 years. Seen one, generally seen them all-and that is a positive-in terms of decor and offering. The menu has grown over the years and though not long should give enough choice for most tastes. The wine list is good but I have actually never ventured far since Davy's Number 1 claret is always so acceptable.
