We had lunch here his week with a special offer. We ‘started’ with their champagne cocktail which was absolutely sublime – best cocktail I have had in years!! We were served very boring bread (the only let down) and butter. We both chose the10oz steak which was delicious, perfectly cooked with a divine, what tasted like a homemade bearnaise – fantastic. With this we ordered the tripled cooked chips, best ever and a yummy mixed small leaf salad which was the perfect accompaniement for the steak and chips. We shared a very generous British cheese plate (cheddar, Cornish Yarg, stilton and a goats cheese) with a bunch of grapes and celery and for us rather disappointing Carrs cheese biscuits (each to their own!!). We then shared Cambridge Burnt Cream (creme brulee) which was perfect. With the meal we enjoyed a bottle of Malbec from Argentina (where my friend has just returned frm!). The service was very good, just one waiter and at one stage x10 customers. The interior is lovely and very refreshing. The choice of music, well, interesting I suppose. Finally a warning to those who suffer from vertigo – the stairs down to the cloakrooms – no railing to hold on to – worth mentioning. Definitely going there again and will be strongly recommending to friends.
