I loved the experience altogether. The ambience was perfect, the service was excellent and coffee and cake both great. The venue is clean, fresh and tasteful. I'm looking forward to my next coffee experience at this lovely new cafe!

All three of us were very pleased with our food, and the service was great. Sadly, the volume of the 'background ' music made our conversation difficult, and was very trying. A quiet restaurant is a treasure when you find one, and happily there are still a few. But not this one.

First time visit & we loved it. The decor & setting just beautiful . Our only complaint was we were seated in front of the kitchen & when the back door was opened the cool breeze blew in & made it uncomfortable

Third time having lunch at The Drawing Room - never disappoints. Delicious food, presented beautifully with care and attention by the amazing chefs. Service staff incredibly welcoming, friendly and efficient - always. Could not recommend this venue for breakfast and lunch strongly enough.

This was our first visit and it didn’t disappoint. The decor is very classy and there are lovely finishing touches like the beautiful water carafes and elegant menu covers. The food is to die for and very reasonably priced. I’ve just found my new favourite place.

We had the share board, the nut dukkah was amazing and the house made pickle veg helped cut through the fat in the meats. The spicy paste ball was incredible and nothing like I had before. The 10 yr old really enjoyed the kids pasta.

Our first visit to this relatively new breakfast/lunch venue. Greeting and seating was friendly and professional and the environment bright and well laid out. Service was timely and there was a good selection. The goat ragu papardella was excellent. The foccaccia was also very good though the bread itself was a bit tough. Coffee was good . The cannolo dessert was very rich and a bit overly buttery rather than the traditional ricotta or custard based filling. All in all, a good lunch experience in a handy spot.
