    I'm a tour guide and took a group to The Wes as the lunch stop on a city walking tour. We had the set menu and I cannot rave enough about the whole experience. The french onion soup was heavenly, dripping with cheese, the steak was perfect. Service was top notch. I'll definitely bring my guests here again.

    Overall a great experience and will definitely be back. Do just wish the breakfast presentation was a bit more thought through for example my dads truffle eggs was literally just scrambled eggs on slice of bread the presentation looked like what you would make at home. The eggs benedict while nice was not as tasty as i would hope and it needed more hollandaise to not be dry. But overall, will be back.

    We're sorry to hear the meal wasn’t what you’d hoped for. That’s not the standard we aim for, and your feedback has been shared with our kitchen team, looking forward to welcoming you back.

    An overall wonderful dining experience with great recommendations on dishes and wines. Loved the beef short ribs on mash matched with a delightful gravy. The rest of our group ordered fish and steak all equally enjoyable. Full marks for the setting and ambience, absolutely stunning
