The food was lovely but the service was lacking. We waited a long time for the food, and after ordering our initial drinks we weren’t asked again if we wanted more despite almost empty glasses on the table. If it had been particularly busy I could have understood but it wasn’t especially. The girls on the reception desk were great though when we needed to tweak our reservation time.

Great addition to Canterbury choice of restaurants. Service very good, food good but portions on the small size. Can’t help feeling it’s a bit overpriced, but that describes a lot of restaurants these days.
