The Well

We had our wedding meal at the Well on 5th November 2011.

We found all of the staff at the Well to be helpful, professional and courteous from day one and everything on the day went better than we had ever expected. They made sure all our requirements could be catered for before we booked, we had an excellent tasting session (which our guests were very jealous about) and they made sure that everything we asked for was provided on the day and that it was done completely hassle free.

The food was of a very high quality, the room looked lovely but most importantly the staff were so wonderful to us. They could not have done any more to make our day perfect and it was by far our favourite part of our wedding day.

Our family and friends, particularly our parents, all told us how impressed they were with the quality of food, drink and the level of service.

We would thoroughly recommend the Well for weddings. We can also recommend them for Christmas time as we returned for a meal with friends and received the same high quality food and service.

We had a lovely Company Christmas Dinner at the well. They catered extremely well for just over 20 people.

The food was delicious and was all brought out in a timely fashion despite the size of our party, the staff were friendly and fun -- highly recommended!

My husband and I had the pleasure of eating dinner here last night.

Our waitress was a star, she made us feel like we we're the only people in the place (which we weren't) and understood our needs from the begining. She suggested a non alcoholic cocktail which kicked off our evening wonderfully, (a lovely mint mojito) we then went on to order our meal. Prawns in a cute half pint glass for me, pea and mint soup for him, this was light in texture and fresh in flavour, the special main of Grouse was a new experience for my husband and he wasn't disappointed, it was just the right side of gamey with all the usual accompniments. My pork belly was cooked to an unctuous softness and I was so happy that it came with crispy crackling, my favourite part. Desserts were to die for, Eton mess was a triumph a balance of sweet and fruity, Chocolate Fondant with a perfect liquid middle and prune & Armangac ice cream, our waitress suggested a Pedro Ximnez sherry to compliment which it did beautifully.

I would happily recommend The Well to all, its relaxed atmosphere, fab service and excellent food makes for a fantastic night out.

We held our wedding reception at The Well recently and it was an absolutely fantastic night from start to finish. The food was excellent and the bacon rolls at midnight were a massive hit. Friendly, efficient staff and a great space – the two floors meant people could chat upstairs and dance like crazy downstairs. And I can't speak highly enough of events manager Nadia who made the whole planning process really simple and stress-free.

Came for lunch with colleagues for the 50% offer. I did not have to mention this at all and the cost was automatically removed form the bill. Two of us had the burgers, which were divine and perfectly cooked to order (mine was medium rare). The other had the mussels which I was was told were very good.

Desserts I feel did not match up with the mains but they were fine. The wine list is very reasonable and service very good.

I was surprised how quiet it was but Wednesday lunch after a long weekend probably isn't surprising. I would happily recommend.

I had my 30th birthday party last weekend and I had the entire downstairs bar to myself. The whole event was a rip-roaring success thanks to the wonderful and attentive staff at The Well. Nadia was great in the run-up to the event, making sure everything went according to plan. Everyone commented on how great the venue was and I have already recommended it to others.

We hired the whole restaurant and downstairs bar area for our Christmas party (50 people). The food was very good indeed - I can recommend the Scallops starter wholeheartedly - and all the staff were really friendly and couldn't do enough to help us. There is a really great team there - James is a super manager and the whole evening was efficiently coordinated by Nadia, the Events Manager. The atmosphere was both cosy and festive, and the downstairs bar was decorated beautifully. A great time was had by all and I'm very pleased indeed that we opted to have our party at The Well - we would definitely return for future events.

We had our company Christmas Party at The Well last Friday and I have to say it was a complete success. The venue, food and smooth running of the evening was great but all thanks must go to the staff who are great!

The Well copes equally whether we are a table of 2 or Christmas lunch for 14. First class ingredients are used to produce class dishes with a modern twist. The staff are on-the-ball and helpful. Definitely a restaurant you would be happy to go to regularly if you worked or lived in the area.

We had our department Christmas lunch at the Well this week and we all really enjoyed it. Both the food and the service were great - the scallop entree was a highlight for me personally...

We travelled from Canary Wharf for this lunch and it was great to go to a different area. The atmosphere was nice and relaxed and Christmasy with crackers and "secret prize" envelopes for everyone.

I would definately go to the Well again if I was in the area, the bar downstairs looked great as well.
