We had a great time here on a cold Wednesday evening whilst celebrating our wedding anniversary. We enjoyed the cocktails for Β£7 offer and went on to have a delicious meal. The food was absolutely amazing, the best I have had locally for a long time. Service was very friendly and helpful and the atmosphere was cosy and chic. Will definitely be returning!!

Was surprised with a visit her as I celebrated my upcoming nuptials with my friends and I can safely say it was the perfect place. The staff were amazing, so friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them (even though we were at the top level with lots of stairs!) The food was delicious and the presentation fantastic. We booked exclusive use of the terrace where we relaxed and enjoyed some more cocktails and champagne. I will definitely be revisiting this restaurant in the near future.

What a wonderful little spot overlooking the river and Meadows for my beautiful wife and I to enjoy the late summer’s sun and a touch of romance. Faultless service, excellent food and reasonably priced for the quality and setting. We’ll be back!

Lovely lunch with my sister. We are making it our place to go as it is equidistant from our homes. What a find! Lovely food, fabulous service and great ambiance!

A real gem! We enjoyed a wonderful meal at The Slanted Door. The food was wonderful, perhaps especially the starter (Texture of Beetroot and the Beef carpaccio) though also the mains (Roast Bass and Pancetta wrapped Pork-Loin) Service was fast an friendly and a nice atmosphere, very glad we went.

This lovely restaurant was a treat to my husband and I. Reasonably priced for what we recieved. Service was impeccable and the ambience was amazing. We had to whole top floor to ourselves but the highlight was the amazing food and cheese platter. Cannot wait to come back on payday.
