    I was there today - Sat 16th Nov. Love the cob salad. My friend and I always have that, a glass of wine and a coffee for lunch. Always great and fab service.

    Excellent menu, friendly staff and nice to be back. I would say that it was a little pricey for what we actually got.

    I like The Huxley for brunch and this was first time for dinner. The service is always 5 star, the space welcoming and not too noisy for good table conversation. Food is generally strong although not a big range of options and in my dish not as value for money as I expected. It would not put me off going again though.

    My friends and I enjoyed our birthday lunch in the relaxed setting. Bobby and her staff looked after us well, giving recommendation for the wagyu beef sandwich which was indeed delicious, and the seasoned fries were definitely more ISH (the sweet pickled onions should be mentioned too). Chocolate brownie was light, with candied pecans and just the right amount of of toffee sauce, and melting ice cream. We were treated to complimentary glass of prosecco and a sweet board wishing us a happy birthday. A special place for a special occasion ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
