Chef's table...

Not that I'm aware - we were quoted £800 for the table that seated eight - excluding drinks - though they gave us glasses of Dom Perignon to kick the evening off. We had some late cancellations in the party and when I tried to move the booking was told we would have to pay the £800 so we ended up taking whoever was in the office!

I highly recommend it as something different and a bit more memorable as the price wasn't much worse then what you might pay in the restaurant for a large party. We even had Marcus Wareing swear at one of the staff though I'm not sure if that was for show!
