    Restaurant was very cold and the menu more suited for breakfast brunch. The food and service were both good.

    Small portions and expensive . No mention that we were celebrating my son’s birthday . My glass of sparkling wine was flat and was replaced,then my cider was flat , but I couldn’t be bothered to complain. £200 for an average meal ( included a13% service charge) I won’t be visiting again

    Food was great - a little on the pricey site. But overall, wonderful experience in a industrial/rail shack setting.

    Good food and great service! Solomon was a star from start to finish, finding me a seat at the bar as I arrived early and looked after us so well!

    We booked this restaurant as the first part of our Christmas day out, and the building and ambience was lovely. The inside is well decorated and has a cool vibe. The front of house was friendly. Initially our table was in a section of the restaurant that was quite cramped and our table for two was right next to a step and the waiters station. I did feel uncomfortable as I felt in the way of customers and service staff trying to get through. As our waiter came over to attend to us, I asked if it would be possible to move tables and he went straight away to enquire. This was no problem for the front of house and moved us into the main hub of the restaurant near the window. The food was good quality, good size and very tasty. I ordered the full breakfast with a side of macaroni cheese (with truffle) which was amazing. My husband ordered the burgerdict which looked nice, the only criticism was that burger was dry. Our waiter in this section let down the service overall as they were slow and not particularly friendly. We ordered hot drinks and asked for tap water which did not arrive. One point I started to cough and my husband asked the waiter for water again, and he was very slow to the point where the table next us offered us their water to relive my cough - very kin of them! Eventually at the end of our meal and after waiting a long time we received our table water and bill. This was a shame as the other staff were really helpful especially during such a busy time of year. I would go again, but the service needs to be consistent as this lets the other workers in the restaurant down.

    I arrived to a warm and personal accueil from a personable gentleman I presumed was the manager and offered the services of a cloakroom. I was quickly shown to my table, the service was prompt, attentive but not intrusive. The breakfast was sublime with fresh, imaginative and good quality ingredients all served at the right temperature. A smart but relaxed ambience made for a very pleasant contemplative breakfast away from the rush-hour madding crowds. I shall return. Thank you.

    I think the food is quite expensive - the cod portion was tiny and didn’t come with anything
    Rail House VictoriaResponded on December 19, 2024

We aim to provide high-quality dishes, but we understand that the balance between price and portion size is important. Your comments are helpful, and we will review them with our team to ensure we continue to offer the best experience for our guests. We hope to welcome you back soon and provide a more satisfying meal. Best, Sarah
