    Excellent menu, the food is delicious (the "amuse bouche" between courses a nice touch), the service very friendly and efficient. Very highly recommended.

    We have dined here on numerous occasions and really like Bresson. Food is amazing, staff are friendly. This time we were placed near the kitchen and could see a lot through the hatch. We were alarmed to see one of the chefs sprinkling what was possibly cheese, onto a dish for the oven and then putting some in his mouth with his fingers and continuing to cook/serve. This same chef we then observed him wiping his perspiring face with his hand and continuing to prep food and serve without washing his hands. I found this quite disturbing.

    Really poor experience, chased the staff for everything, drinks arrived after every course we ordered them for, not what I’d expect for the cost. The food was excellent but the mains arrived directly after the starter, really rushed poor experience.

    Haven't started the weekend with a late lunch in Bresson for a while and the gap was way too long. Excellent food and presentation as always and the whole front of house team were brilliant, attentive and engaging. Haven't had such tasty spicy marinara with my calimari in years, it transported me right back to Long Island in the last millennium! Thanks all.
