    Busy environment, suited best to younger crowd. Staff very friendly and efficient. Couldn’t be faulted . Food good to very good depending on dish. Angus steak and chips , and cabbage plus lentils excellent . Poached pears with ice cream good but very sweet (youghurt would have been better accompaniment than ice cream). Overall recommend but more of an excellent bar with seating than a conventional restaurant .

    My wife and I dined at Bicicletta for a special anniversary last night. Besides the great food (the ravioletti was to die for!), the team in general and Sammy in particular were so lovely and attentive. Sammy organized a special desert for us to request and took extraordinary lengths prior to our booking to make sure the evening was atmospheric and memorable. We'd thoroughly recommend Bicicletta and their wonderful team for a delicious, warm dining experience in a casually elegant setting.

    The steak, spatchcock and octopus was well cooked and beautifully flavoured and balanced with all the ingredients on the plate. To add to the delight was how well the vegetables were cooked and flavoured.
