    Overall was great until I saw the bill and I’d been charged £7.50 for one slice of bread cut into three !! Now to be fair bread was not on the menu and we did request some bread with our starter . To put this into perspective the soup and bread was £8.50 as a starter . Does this mean the soup is only worth £1 ?? We are happy to pay for good decent food and great service but to be charged £7.50 for one slice of bread cut into three pieces is a bit much !! Everything else was great thank you .
    JD YoungResponded on December 10, 2024
    Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the overall experience at JD Young and appreciated the quality of our food and service. We’d like to share that bread is on our menu and is freshly homemade in-house, which is why the price reflects the quality and care that goes into it. The bread portion served with our soup is designed to be a smaller accompaniment to the dish, but we completely understand your perspective and appreciate your honest feedback. We value your perspective and will take your comments into consideration as we continuously strive to provide a satisfying dining experience. We hope to welcome you back soon and thank you again for your visit.

    We had another lovely meal here last night. My husband tried the pizza for the first time and was very impressed! I enjoyed the chicken, bacon & mushroom dish which was delicious. Great attentive service as always. Love the decor but it looks extra special now with the Christmas lights & tree.

    Fantastic roast. The only place where roast potatoes aren’t like bullets! Staff are fabulous. The ambience is calm largely due to the fact you’re not crammed in like sardines!

    Eaten here once before but in the bar side. A greater experience this time round, we sat in the restaurant part and it was beautiful. Even though the bar was super busy we were away from all the noise, and it was a lovely vibe. The food was insane! Very delicious. Compliments to all the staff from waiters, chefs etc! We will all be returning again. Thank you so much.

    Pleasant decor/lighting. Cool and efficient service. Food was tasty and portions adequate. Broccoli needed another 4 minutes to render it al dente. A complaint on this went unanswered. We thought the prices were above average and more in line with London pricing. Deep fried prawn starter at £11.50 particularly expensive. If prices here were reduced by 20% we would visit here 50% more.
    JD YoungResponded on December 3, 2024
    Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your recent visit. We're glad you appreciated our decor, lighting, and the quality of our food! We appreciate your note about the broccoli and will share this with the kitchen team to ensure every dish is spot-on. Regarding pricing, we put a lot of care into sourcing top-quality, locally-produced ingredients to create the best possible dining experience. That said, we always value hearing what our guests think and will keep your comments in mind. We’d love to see you again soon and hope your next visit will be even better!

    We have dined several times with this fabulous place. It’s hard for us to visit as we have a young Dog,and we don’t like to leave her too long. Today was no exception. We arrived early for our reservation and luckily the staff could cater for us straight away. The whole experience from start to finish was Top Drawer. From the welcome, to the ordering process and the delivery of the food it was exceptional. The food was wonderfully presented and tasted yummy. My Wife had a Mocktail a Raspberry Fizz. We are still talking about it now. A wonderful fabulous dinner today. We will be back again soon we hope.
    JD YoungResponded on November 28, 2024

We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another fabulous experience.
