"Whether you’re seated upstairs or down, you’ll be well looked after at the sleek brasserie. Water glasses are refreshed whenever they’re half-empty, chic table lamps give everyone a healthy glow even after sitting through Les Mis, and French food hits the mark even if prices stack up quickly. You could come for a good-value rotisserie chicken, chips, and salad, but then you’d be missing out on brilliant starters like umami-rich snail “bolognaise” on toast." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
