The atmosphere was so nice. I went on a date on a Tuesday and had the 2-4-1 stakes which were cooks perfectly. The only downside is it has to be the same stake but I didn’t really nice. We had 2 rump stakes and some bread and butter which only came to £30 I would definitely recommend coming on a Tuesday.

Bistro Union never disappoints, but today’s lunch was my best experience yet! Dining with my wife, a friend, and one of my sons, we were once again blown away by the quality and variety of the menu. The ingredients are second to none, and the duck breast—truly one of the best I’ve ever tasted. This restaurant is a jewel in the crown of Abbeville Road. The food, service, and ambiance are consistently exceptional, making it a reliable choice every time. Thoroughly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.
