Came for my mums birthday. The staff were fantastic. Food was great as always. My husband is gluten free and they have one of the best gluten free menus. But the staff made the evening. Thank you for making it special
Ate in. Beautifully cooked fish and chips, with mushy peas. Efficient staff who looked after us very well, very cheerful. Gluten free options, including vinegar!
Only leaving a negative review because the prices are extortionate! Wonderful service but wouldn’t come again for that reason. Gluten free pasta and pizza available!
We stayed tonight with my wife. . We got on very well. The restaurant is welcoming, excellent food and service. I'd like to leave a positive feedback for the the manager that served me tonight. She was very kind, well-prepared and professional. Furthermore, at the demand for gluten-free food for my wife, she made sure that the kitchen environment was free of contamination in the preparation of the dish. We been extremely happy to eat here.
We rented The Black Room at Forte for my baby’s 1st birthday. The staff were excellent and made the day completely hassle-free; we arrived to a room already set up for us, and were assisted with displaying the food we had brought with us for the babies. The canapés provided by Forte was excellent - everyone commented on how good they were! And they were able to accommodate dietary requirements of some of our guests (gluten free, vegan etc.) Thank you to the team! Would highly recommend for any event.
We held a family reunion here .We booked months in advance , and made a few adjustments to guest numbers over that time. The Staff were lovely and accommodated our requests , following up with a phone call to confirm things.
The food was lovely. There was a vegan choice which was very tasty. Just wish there were more vegan options on the menu
Gluten free options were also available.
We had a great long table in the main restaurant to seat 12 of us.
Staff were attentive and friendly.
Visited here as visiting a family member. We needed somewhere that had gf options for my son.
We were met with lots of lovely cake options that were gf , however he couldn't eat /risk eating them as they were mixed in the same cabinet as the gluten cakes! I'm disappointed that staff do not understand the importance contamination , this could make someone who is gf/colieac very poorly!

Visited the Ivy on a Sunday evening with some friends. We found the service somewhat lacking and had to ask for some things more than once and service took a long time.
I advised the waitress that I was gluten free which was fine but everything had to be researched via an app, I ordered but then I was surprised when I was served fries with my meal. I hadn't ordered them so was reluctant to eat them as I didn't know if they were safe for me to eat (it later turned out they were not). When we finally got the ladies attention we asked about the fries and explained I have a gluten allergy so I'm not sure I should have had them. The waitress said they were served in error but they wont be on the bill. Well obviously...
The starter was amazing, and the main was okay but for the price I would have expected slightly higher standard. Other peoples meals were a mix of 'fine' and 'really good'.
It wasn't overly busy so the noise levels were good and atmosphere much better than that of a Friday and Saturday, but the staff didnt seem to be on their game which was a bit disappointing.
I don't think we'll be rushing back to be honest. The allergy thing is made difficult here, having to cross check the menu with an app where the titles might not be the same. You can't join in conversations as you're heads down trying to figure out what you can have with little staff involvement to help you out.
If the Ivy is happy to serve a Vegan menu, why not have a Gluten free menu? It's just lazy and exclusive
Came here for breakfast before graduation and had a great experience fantastic food, and we had really stellar service from the lad waiting our table
Also great gluten free options
Ate here a few times now and it's consistently good! Most recently I had the Chicken Panaeng which was stunning. I have a gluten intolerance and so was handed a QR code which lists all allergens for each dish. I'd prefer for it to be printed on a menu for ease but the website is clear. When my dishes arrived they had a "Non Gluten" sticker which was appreciated.
Our server was attentive but unfortunately I didn't catch his name. I think his shift finished before we left and so Nathan handed us the bill. Payment was easy to split between 4
We had an amazing time at Samurai. Christopher, our chef was fantastic and very entertaining - he made it such a great and memorable experience. The service was exceptional, and they catered to my gluten allergy with no issues at all. Great evening all around and we will definitely come back!
Really helpful staff with excellent knowledge of food intolerances. Most of the burgers can be adapted for the gluten and dairy intolerant. The only negative was the noise levels, would probably benefit from some soft furnishings to absorb the noise. Burgers were amazing!
