We arrived early for a cheese and Wine platter and it did not disappoint. From the friendly welcome to serving the wooden platter with a selection of cheeses bread crackers and jam and a crave of wine. The decoration of the restaurant was perfect with so many memories of items. And because the cheese was so good we had to buy some to take home. Will recommend to everyone . Thank you

Dalston Jazz Bar is a fantastic find. The night we went the Jazz Quartet was playing a range of standards and were really professional and high quality. The food was a revelation - 5 course fish menu at a set price and a range of delicious desserts. Each course was a delight, really fresh produce and beautifully prepared and cooked. The service was friendly and professional and the overall ambience was great. For a meal of this quality and quantity £40 pp was fantastic value. Where I live (on the Isle of Skye) a meal like this would cost a minimum of £100pp. I unhesitatingly recommend a visit to this excellent establishment.

This place is an absolute GEM. The name is misleading as it suggests it’s an expensive champagne bar. But it is a lovely reasonably priced neighbourhood bistro with a huge selection of fantastic wines and delicious food. Always a friendly welcome too. Highly recommend.

It was my wife's birthday and we needed someone fairly close after the Spurs! We arrived at 8:30 for our reservation at 9pm so had a nice drink out on the side terrace. All our food was amazing. My Soufle starter, incredible and then the Fillet Steak, beautifully cooked medium rare and served with a very generous portion of lovely French Fries. My Cherry Chocolate mousse was gorgeous too! My wife enjoyed all her dishes too. It was a lovely evening. The restaurant was packed, although it was a Saturday night. We both had 3 courses. A lovely half bottle of Macon Villages at £29 and a bottle of red for about £40. It came to alot but we enjoyed it all! Will bring the family for lunch next time...

We had a great meal for four at the Princess. Service was good, food was great quality and portion sizes were substantial so value for money excellent. Upstairs was reserved for a private event so it was pretty loud for conversation as it was a Saturday night. We'd definitely come back.

Can't believe I worked down the road for 2 years and never once come into this place! So lovely, ticks all the boxes for every occasion - cute booths for business meet ups, first date or when you just don't feel like sitting out in the open. Wine list is fab - oysters were served on bespoke plates and the mussels were divine with the best gluten free bread - I have ever had! The service 5* - can't fault them at all! Just the right level of attentiveness and upsold in a genuine way! 🫶🏽 Loved it so much I am back again for dinner tonight, after having lunch yesterday 😁
