    Pre booked for lunch, table was ready on arrival. Good lunch selection, lovely bread for toasties. However drinks service very slow, with 2 pots of tea coming after our sandwiches. Order 2nd drinks but decided to pay and go before they arrived, as also very slow.
    the 1867Responded 4 days ago
    Thank you for your honest review, Claire. It’s great that you enjoyed the toasties and lunch options, but we’re sorry about the slow drinks service. We’ll make sure to address this with the crew today.

    This is the second time I’ve been to 1867 this time it was my sister‘s birthday. She had a balloon on her table. Lunch was amazing. Service was impeccable and on leaving, she was handed a bottle of Prosecco and a card from the team. It made her feel very special and I will be going back again very soon, thank you ladies.
    the 1867Responded 7 days ago
    Your thoughtful review made us smile! It’s great to have been part of your sister’s special day, and we’re so glad she enjoyed the little surprises. We’ll see you again very soon—thank you.

    We booked for an afternoon tea. The food was lovely - three different fillings for sandwiches, crisps, small salad, 3 types of dessert and warm scones with cream and jam. You could also have unlimited Americano and tea. Staff were attentive and welcomed our two dogs enthusiastically.

    Thank you for sharing your experience, Rhi. It’s lovely to hear you enjoyed the afternoon tea and those warm scones—always a favourite! We’re also so glad your furry friends felt just as welcome as you did. Looking forward to seeing you all again soon.
