Nice restaurant, shame about the lack of heating.

The food is of a high quality and is well presented by courteous staff. However, should you ever be put into the upstairs room, be warned: it is ridiculously cold. In fact it is like eating in a cold, intimately lit cave. We asked about the heating and were told that it was proving problematic. (I had been there previously and it was the same issue upstairs. I think that it is an overflow room used only when necessary) Anyway, there were about 20 people sat upsatirs on the Saturday night that we went there and all of the women at every table had their overcoats on! It really was that cold. Granted it was cold outside but you don't expect to pay £100 for two courses and a reasonable bottle of wine, only to be treated like this. We asked to be moved downstairs into the warmth, but there was no space so we had to endure. To be fair, it ruined what should have been a nice meal. As I have said if you go there and it looks like you are being put into the upstairs room then ask to be seated downstairs. I unfortunately will not be running the risk again, having been caught out twice. Nor shall I recommend it in the future based on this. On leaving the restaurant we passed other customers who joked that "it's probably warmer outside"!
