We went there with my friends who came to the UK for their holiday. Everything was very good including food, service and ambience. I strongly recommend to friends.

As always we REALLY enjoyed our visit to Claridge's Reading Room this time for a celebratory luncheon. Service ; impeccable; food superb; wine divine it is far and away our favourite place to eat. Yes coming in at just under £700 for the two of us it's not cheap but then one wouldn't expect it to be 9and we pushed the boat out a bit because it was a big birthday!) If you want cheap go to Macdonald's (I imagine) if you want class, perfection and sheer joy go to Claridge's. We can't wait to return!
