The Athenaeum

Once again our Sunday Lunch at the Athenaeum was wonderful. The three course meal and champagne were delicious, we could not fault the meal in any way and the ambience and surroundings were just perfect. This is our favorite restuarant and we will definitely return again and again.

Galvin at Windows

We lunched at Galvin at Windows on Sunday. The venue, views and food were superb. The staff were very attentive but not overly so. I have to have a gluten free meal which they provided perfectly. The food was delicious and with the TT offer was very good value. Will definitely return.

The Athenaeum

Lunch at the Athenaeum yesterday was superb. Service was excellent - as the restaurant was full we were given a table in The Garden Room which was very cosy and sophisticated. We have been there many times before and and shall continue to do so. It never disappoints.
