The five of us all had a really enjoyable time. Excellent service and my salt beef hash and coffee were delicious. Will return.

Utterly wonderful From the moment we entered the restaurant everyone and everything was a delight. The menu of the seasons was delicious; the presentation of each course playful, and each mouthful sublime. I may not need to eat for a few days …

Delicious food and excellent service, particularly the waiter from Texas, who was friendly and helpful. We had the pre-theatre menu, with a couple of sides, which was good value and plenty enough food. We’ll certainly eat there again.

We went to Bistro Freddie for a birthday dinner and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. The food and service was excellent and the ambience on par with a Parisian bistro. Highly recommend for a special occasion or date night.

We arrived early but were given a lovely table on a mezzanine overlooking the Hotel lobby. Our waiter was very friendly and did all he could to make us welcome. The food was outstanding particularly in flavour and presentation and the portions were manageable. We both had a memorable lunch before attending the Lion King. We hope to return in the future

Second visit in seven months, and just as heavenly. Signature menu, seven courses, served by angels in disguise. By the last one I was in seventh heaven and I left floating on a cloud... The beetroot and smoked eel were love at first bite, the caviar crowned the Cornish mackerel with tiny pearls, and its spiced harissa nage rippled in applause. The sesame khobz with salted Irish butter made me silently apologise to every bread I’ve ever eaten. The Orkney scallop “Marocaine” tasted like a sunset that had been taught to sing, and the Yorkshire duck was so tender it practically surrendered, and I accepted its terms. Then the Mouneyrac pear with baked kefir and argan oil tiptoed in, like a gentle breeze on a hot summer day. Head Sommelier Piotr, with a quiet smile, had suggested to me a glass of 2023 Santorini Assyrtiko, Ancestral Vines 34, that would give some of the best Chablis a run for their money. And then the "clou du spectacle" : a 2020 Japanese Syrah from the Mariko vineyard in Nagano arrived like a secret from the other side of the world; my duck and I were speechless. As a final surprise, Piotr, the Paganini of the cellar, whispered a very rare, velvety Barolo Chinato into my glass, steeped in herbs and secrets; it enveloped the English Saffron dessert like a warm blanket on a cold night in Piedmont. What a memorable evening! My advice: choose the seven course menu, put yourself in Piotr’s hands, and enjoy the journey! You won't regret it.

Abdoul was awesome! And the food met the hype! Best Beef Wellington I've had. I'll be thinking about the sticky toffee pudding for a long time! Chef's kiss!
