    Good value for money breakfast. Service a bit slower than usual as it was really busy due to Mother's day. Only negative is that it was not very warm in there and rather draughty. Apart from that good service as usual.

    No mussels or fillet steak. Exactly what we went for. The waitress’ English was very poor and she struggled to understand what we wanted. Sirloin steak med rare was chewy and fatty, restaurant was chilly and therefore food got cold quickly. Dessert had to be sent back as tarte was not fresh. When we arrived I said I had a discount voucher, the manager took the set menu away and said you won’t be needing these in a slightly condescending manner. His manner embarrassed us. I usually enjoy a visit to cafe rouge but not on this occasion.

    While food and service was very good, I was not happy with the booking a table experience. On arrival, there didn't seem to be a table reserved for us, in fact they had to move another diner to accommodate us.

    The service was very good it was lucky we wasn't there on a busy night as we arrived a little late . Our waiter was attentive and very sweet . Food was very good for the spring menu though a few more options would have been nice . Thank you .

    Atmosphere great. Love the French music. Renound for poor service and basic food. My steak was good, but chips were oven chips and over cooked. 3 things were missing from the menu.
