Booked a week ago for mine and my partners 10 year anniversary and I couldn't be more grateful for the way they made our day so special. The welcome from Hugo and Alba was so welcoming... we had a lovely table by the window and our waitress Emily was amazing I honestly couldn't fault her, she was very attentive and recommended delicious dishes... I had the sea bass and my partner the ribeye steak that was cooked perfectly (compliments to the chef) and then after a surprise dessert to wish us a happy anniversary.Thank you everyone at the Ivy for making our anniversary a memorable one xx

After a terrible experience at Ivy Asia (table not ready at booking time, no opportunity of waiting at the bar, of course even not a gesture of getting us an apologetic drink to clearly practising abusive surbooking - will never go back there), we couldn’t have a better relieving experience at the Ivy next door! Great welcome and all staff trying to save our night. The lovely receptionist, staff and food saved the night.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian menu to be asked at the entrance

Had a wonderdul time to celebrate a birthday and graduation of 3 talented women. Food was very good and the service, from George, was excellent. He made our visit so enjoyable as nothing was too much trouble. Great atmosphere in the restaurant.

Excellent in every way ?

Lovely dinner, fast service. Everything was amazing no complaints. Our waiter Finn was fantastic and went above and beyond for us.

First visit to The Ivy after years of thinking it was too expensive and posh. Well it's very posh but not too expensive compared to most gastro pub type places. Fantastic friendly and attentive service from Finn C (that's what was on the receipt) Food was really nice. Highly recommend the fish and chips and the chicken milanese. Don't live local but will be back soon in another branch (probably Cardiff) to try the burger as that looked amazing too. ??

Felt we had a bad experience visiting, tried to make it known afterwards and have been ignored since by the ivy

Fantastische ervaring. Heel lekker eten, ontzettend vriendelijk personeel en alles tiptop in orde! Niet goedkoop (in vergelijking met België, Frankrijk) maar de Britse manier van aanpakken waardeer ik heel erg!

Came here for a corporate event during the week in a lovely private room. Absolutely Amazing food and fantastic service! Have been served by the waitress here before and she is al has amazing!
No stars deserved after our 2nd 2023 visit.My guest ordered the special of pork chops, he complained they were under cooked,i ate one-having sent back the cottage pie- and throughly agreed they wern't baked but more like microwaved.The cottage 'pie' consisted of a raw ball of minced beef soaked in red wine also known as raw chopped meat- and in a bowl (i'm not a dog and felt we were being abused by The Ivy' director who first recommended the pork chops as a special; with the cottage pie my choice. but when i asked the manager "what do you call this?" it's not a cottage pie !" he took it away, off the bill. As for the 2nd bottle of Merlot wine,which was a cheap house wine,the general manager suggested he could pour the wine in two glasses back into the bottle(which my guest and i had been drinking from)if we wern't going to drink it.<a unhealthy, unprofessional disgusting idea to say the least and a WARNING to all Not to accept 'already opened' bottles of any drinks anywhere!(perhaps) even Avoid The IVY, in East Street Brighton, East Sussex UK

The shepherds pie is always amazing. However the fish and chips were disappointing as the fish batter was very oily and fish was dry. The batter was so over cooked that it was like a dry crisp. I am surprised the chef let that sort of dish be served. Not what we have come to expect from the Ivy.

Typical Ivy venue, very attentive service, highly curated dishes and a price point to match. Cool interiors, and be sure to check out the bathrooms!

The Ivy tends to be one of our go-to places for a treat before a show, etc. We find that they offer exceptional, reasonably priced food, served in beautiful surroundings by great staff.Sadly we considered that things had changed on our last visit on Monday.My prawn cocktail starter was extremely disappointing and a huge change from the previous recipe; meagre ingredients, an unpleasant sauce, and an over-fussy presentation.Our steaks were good but portions were ungenerous. A ribeye from the all day menu, one portion of veg, and a tin cup of chips will set you back in the order of £50.All in all, we felt that the usual spark just wasn't there.A pity.

Had the best time there. Visited with friends, and I must say, it was the best experience I have ever had with The Ivy. It definitely beats London, if I may say so myself.The service was spot on, the staff very attentive and the food absolutely amazing! Looking forward to going back !
Zo bijzonder. Vooral de toiletten.
