Really great afternoon tea, it was a Christmas present from last year. We had a super glass of champagne to start with. They have us a lovely gap just to enjoy the drink and ambience of the restaurant. The selection of sandwiches were nice, there was a lovely sausage roll which was yummy. Great selection of mini cakes and beautiful fresh scones. Very generous jam and clotted cream, we were both well and truly full. The staff were really great plus it was quite quiet so very enjoyable. Thank you.

Last night we dined at Lumiere and had a wonderful evening. It is a small intimate restaurant with a comfortable cosy atmosphere. The front of house are friendly and welcoming particularly Helen who is keen to show case the origin of the ingredients. The chef Jon is clearly talented and rightly deserves the Michelin star that has been awarded to the restaurant. The food for the most part is outstanding, beautifully presented and tasted as you would hope in such an establishment. We did feel although the canapés and bread were good it was the only area we felt was slightly underwhelming and didn’t have the flavour and taste punch the other dishes had. However, once we had eaten the canapés the dishes got better and better. The highlights being the smoked eel, sea bass and pigeon courses. The deserts were beautifully presented, personally I found them just a little over sweet but that’s personal opinion as my wife didn’t agree! Over all a wonderful meal and well worth visiting.

    Lovely experience right from walking through the door. It's a stunning building which gives me a wonderful ambience with the circular bar at the centre. Food was wonderful as expected in a premium restaurant as was the service. Little details taken care of like taking our champagne away to cool between glasses but always being there with it before we asked or finished our glass. A lovely experience and a lovely treat night for a birthday
