Was good until we were hurried out by security on behalf of the management despite other people still drinking including staff after work. Given first warning and then less then 2 minutes later told to leave. If you want people out faster stop serving earlier. Security was good if not well informed by the venue so no blame for him.

Popped in for a little Saturday lunch. 2 adults and a one-year old. High chair provided. Staff incredibly nice, happy and proactively accomodating. Food was really good - enjoyed by all three of us. A really charming spot - quite quiet at 12:30 on a Saturday but slowly filled up while we were here. Had 4.1 stars on Google when we came here and that is a woeful misrepresentation of this place - it's really nice!

Hidden from the main Bishopsgate road outside of Liverpool Street station, this fine eatery was a pleasant surprise! The steaks were done to perfection!! And the red wines to compliment were spot on! Thanks for the treat guys! And prices weren't silly neither!

Friendly staff. Good selection of alcohol beverages Atmosphere lovely The food took Nearly half an hour The toast was burnt I would have complained but no one came to ask if the food was ok. The ladies toilets were filthy lacking in loo roll My toilet didn't flush. The men's toilets floor was covered in sick Serving alcohol to a customer to get so poorly isn't acceptable. The staff were doing their best cleaning it . But it put us off. It was a shame we were looking forward to the meal and relaxing in the lovely bar.
