The Huxley has become my personal indulgence as there is nothing like dinner with a view! I really don’t need a menu at this point. Just do yourself a favor and get the trio sliders. Just the right amount of fish beef and pork that is well presented with a side of chips.

Was really nice (staff, food, coffee all great), but very loud. This may have been as we were directly below a speaker.

Our servers were warm, friendly, and attentive, with excellent timing. We enjoyed Lucy’s service, especially. We loved our small bites plates—crispy, tasty fish tacos; fennel, orange, beet and feta salad; and tomatoes with burrata—all fresh and delicious. We had walked by the Huxley earlier this week, and it pulled us in with its glowing, lovely ambiance. We are very happy we spent an evening at the Huxley!

This was our first time in the Huxley since the last upgrade. Loved it. Nice ambience and comfortable seating. Prices were average for city centre so no complaints there. We didn't have any food but the menu looked varied and should suit the majority of customers.
