    Fantastic food, the place was great and easy accessible for me (I'm in a wheelchair) and the staff couldn't do enough for us and kept checking to see if we were okay and wanted anything.

    Beautiful setting and the Afternoon tea was delicious BUT the service was terrible. Once the food and drinks were delivered no staff member came near us. When I eventually got their attention and asked for more water it was handed to me by stretching across my daughter’s face. Our waiter disappeared for most of the time. We weren’t brought the tea we requested to follow the champagne so I again had to flag a waitress down to ask for it. We then waited over 10 minutes for it and when it didn’t appear I had to ask again. I asked for the bill and again had go to wait a long time. When I saw that service was included I realised that’s why the staff take no interest in quality of customer service. I would challenged the amount due to our poor experience but it was my daughter’s 18th birthday treat and I did want to spoil the mood. It was such a disappointment as I thought h had found the perfect place to treat a loved one but sadly I will not be recommending The Ivy to anyone and certainly will not be gifting it to others.
