We had a fantastic time for my 30th birthday. Our server made everything special for us. The pepperoni flatbread sharer was delicious as were the mains. We’ve been to several hard rock cafes and the atmosphere is just excellent.

I had a lovely afternoon tea at L'Escargot with a group of girl friends. It was raining heavily and they were able to accommodate us half an hour early, and we were made very welcome. The choice of teas was good, and we all enjoyed the ones we chose. The sandwiches, scones and cakes were also excellent, as was the glass of champagne that we decided to included. All in all, a lovely afternoon tea experience.

Great food and friendly service. We had a baked Camembert to start with and baked cod with white beans for main. The only reason for one star less is that the profiterole could do with more chocolate, but this is a personal preference. I have been back on numerous occasions and this place never disappoints.
