Big improvements in standards and service at 1907 since our visits some years back. The vegan dishes are inspired, the bbq meats are fair quality and it is all all very well. presented. Superb service throughout on both recent visits. Easy parking right outside the door.. Only real criticism are the prices which are rather on the high side.
