About this restaurant

Good for business meals
Neighbourhood gem
Great for fine wines

Elegant private rooms and the original arches of the champagne vaults offer endless options for dining and events in this characterful venue situated in the heart of the West End. A unique space for exclusive parties and weddings as well as smart dining, tastings and private meetings or presentations. Award winning steaks from our butcher Donald Russell are amongst the firm favorites, accompanied by an impressive wine list drawn from the vast Davy cellars, craft beers and the ever popular Davy’s Old Wallop still served in pewter tankards.

Having had a very poor fried fish on my last visit the manager welcomed me by name and provided an entirely complimentary lunch including a glass of beer. Excellent response. Fish and chips was very good as it usually is and impossible to fault response to a poor meaal.

Fish and chips is usually very good but not on this occasion, the batter was soggy as were the chips, the waitress was uninterested but as I was leaving the manager asked me about lunch, apologised and said he would take care of it next time I was there.
