St John Bread & Wine

You can't fault the quality of the food, but customer service is another matter, so much so that I won't return.

I made a booking for 9 people for a birthday celebration. I was not told that if the number rose to 10 then we would all have to choose from the feasting menu - in other words no choice whatsoever. When I called to increase the booking we ended up with an exceptionally limited choice of food for all courses. I was the customer - not the restaurant owner!!

As for the bill, it took the waiter 3 attempts to get the correct bill. Such a pity!

Honest, down to earth food at a very reasonable price. I had an excellent crab and wonderful smoked mackerel, followed by madeleines with a double expresso. The place attracts a rather trendy crowd and the atmosphere is lively; may be too noisy for my taste. In any case, an absolutely recommendable venue.
