Grand Cafe - Table reservation

We booked this as we had heard a bit about the act on social media. They looked fun.There was of us celebrating a birthday, and you know, its always hard trying to find something different but fun to do.Some of the group lived local, some London, but the journey was absolutely worth it.The venue is easy to find, and park near to and is really lovely. Great welcome as we walked in with a glass of bubbles included .Sat down and was explained by the staff what happens and as we had ordered, we had one vegan with us, and one fussy eater, but all that had been taken care of. The drag queens globe girls arrived and went around every table chatting and having a laugh. They look so glamourous and tall! Then the tea was served on those lovely cake stands ! So much food we were never going to finish it all.Then the show started which was equally shared with the girls and an AMAZING live female singer Chloe Hart who is a big West End name apparantly. She sang some amazing songs and the girls performed routines throughout.We couldn't belive it, time flew and we all were on our feet doing a conga at the end, singing our heads off to a disco tune ! It was simply the best afternoon we have had in ages and looking for an other celebration to go back.It was a head for the bubbles, the food and the show, which I think was great value we did have an extra round of cocktails too )Whatever the reason you have to celebrate, go down there. you'll be glad you did

Saturday night on a Bank Holiday weekend....the restaurant needed far more diners than the few who were in the room with us for there to be some ambience . The staff visible behind the bar at the other end of the room outnumbered the diners, at least before p.m ; perhaps more people dine later. The best thing I can say about the service is that not all the wait staff seemed to have been trained to a high level or were equally experienced in their roles. The first thing which seemed rather amateurish was to ask us to order drinks without bringing us a wine list. After that, it took quite a while for another member of staff to apologise for sangria being unavailable. We asked for a jug of water, which took a very long time to arrive.Before our meals arrived there was only one other couple in the room, so the staff were not extra-busy. At the end of the meal, one of them had even included the unavailable sangria on our bill, along with the cost of the drink we ordered to replace it. On he plus side, the wait staff were all smartly dressed and polite....just slow and strangely inefficient. The food was delicious and couldn't be faulted; the Australian shiraz was excellent and the coffee good and strong.

for years they come here for the atmosphere of special occasion, but relaxed on Easter Sunday they organized our extended family from 17 to lunch, for a 50th anniversary for me and my wife. eating was demanding and excellent, service attentive, but not intrusive. everyone had a great time. it would not have been better. thanks to great cafe and all their employees.
