Every one of the 4 staff front of house who were working this evening provided the standard of service I delight to receive. We ate from the set £20 May menu - a small choice of excellent dishes. The surroundings demonstrated the HN quality you associate with the name. Wines by the glass sufficiently varied to provide a peasant choice.... More

Went here on the sunny bank holiday weekend with my mum and my girlfriend. We got there slightly late and decided to have some cocktails in the lounge. They were fine with this, did not rush us, and the cocktails were amazing. We were pleased to see when we sat down that there was a set menu deal for 3... More

A recent return visit for lunch, a couple of weeks ago and following a previous disastrous visit in respect of service, we were very, very happy to find that the service was back on track plus some! Faultless and of a high standard, the team worked well together to provide a seamless service back in line with the quality we... More

The cocktail bar 4th floor. Had the unfortunate experience of visiting Harvey Nicks laughingly named cocktail bar. The only part of the name that has even the remotest connection is [--]. Not only can they not make cocktails, since when do you serve margaritas without salt? but they must have been fermenting the tequila they were obviously growing their own... More

I came here with 2 friends as a break from shopping, it wasn't very busy so we got a table straight away. The a la carte menu was varied, but a little dear for lunch for us, so we opted for the set menu. There were only 3 choices a course, which I thought was a little restrictive, but I... More
