    A business lunch on Thursday. Easy to book on open table and good confirmation and reminders. Food was very good as was the service. Will go there again soon.

    We were warned that we had limited time by phone and asked if wanted to start earlier. We sat down slightly before our booking time and had a leisurely lunch without being rushed. The food and service was excellent and we left in good time.

    I thought some of the food was overpriced (steak and sides £40) and some reasonable (Fish and chips £17). Excellent service but an odd little bar. Very well located.

    I only ordered a smoke salmon sandwich for lunch, which was ok, but the bread was very dry.

    A hidden wine bar on Fenchurch Street. Pleasant staff, good drinks, but extremely overpriced sandwiches.
