Excellent service, really delicious food and adore the space, so well designed- tables not too close together, high ceilings and very comfortable chairs and banquettes. The high Ivy standards throughout! We all loved it.

Enjoyed a very pleasant afternoon at The Holt, afternoon tea was lovely, nice atmosphere and decorated with Christmas tress and a lovely fire. Nice to have warm scones as some places do not do this, and nice sandwiches and cakes. We needed to do a last minute change with the sandwich's from their menu, and the were very obliging to do so.
