Another great night at Bresson! Wonderful atmosphere and great food. A big shout out for service. Asked for an espresso martini at the end of the evening and while the bartender had left the team improvised and presented the perfect cocktail! Well done to them. I look forward to the next visit! Thanks!

Really nice Christmas Eve lunch, 4 adults one toddler. Warm welcome, children’s menu offered for toddler. All tasty, nicely served. Good quality excellent, except perhaps the fish. I thought it didn’t look white enough for a white fish. It wasn’t my meal but I was glad it wasn’t my choice. Portion sizes perfect. Porchetta was lovely, deserts were really nice. A very welcoming relaxing ambience with lovely staff. Would recommend and will visit again!
