    Great food, it was a hot day so we chose a lite 3 courses, with pink bubbles. Staff were very good and friendly, decor is wonderful. Washrooms are pleasant (that matters too).

    A big disappointment. Very mediocre considering the reputation and price tag. Service was inattentive and slow. We had to ask for our complementary glasses of bubbly and no one ever checked on whether our meal was ok. Tbh, the staff were polite and friendly when they did serve us. The food was the biggest disappointment. Over cooked scallops, over powering horseradish in the steak tartare, bland veal and very sinewy and tough ribeye steak. The puddings were by far the best and tasty. When your bill is over £230 for two, you expect far more. Maybe we were unlucky with what we chose. We will try once more to see.

    I took my wife to The Ivy for her significant birthday. I had booked a champagne afternoon tea. On arrival, which was a complete surprise to my wife, we were greeted at the entrance foyer by a very pleasant young lady and was shown to our table which was very well presented. We were then brought our glasses of champagne and asked if we wanted our tea brought at the same time as the food or later, we chose later. Our food was then brought, our rolls/sandwiches separately wrapped and the obligatory three tier cake stand with scones, cakes and crème brûlée. It looked elegant and the taste of the food matched that. Our choice of tea was brought at the end as requested and even a small cake with a birthday candle and Happy Birthday chocolate sign, which was a really lovely touch. We were really full and could not eat a couple of the cakes but the young lady boxed them up for us to take home. My wife and of course myself had a really lovely afternoon in a very ornate and beautiful setting. The staff were so friendly, efficient and attentive, we could not ask for more. Highly recommended. Thank you.
