Martin's review of Skylon (bar)

The noise in the restaurant was overpowering. There should be a screen or partition between the bar and the restaurant. Service was attentive but they failed to bring the coffee until prompted. Food was of a high standard but far too expensive. We paid £60 per head for two courses with some very indifferent house wine. Why or why must these establishment mark up by 400%? Better value and ambience is available at the Ritz and they include service charge in their prices
