As a family we have been coming to the Fig tree over the last eight years. The first time I visited I was debating if I would need to get a takeaway from next door . However by the fourth course I realised that it wouldn't be neccessary. I have never had a bad meal at any point. The quality of the food served has always been first class. The wine flight is beautifully matched to the dishes in the Taster Menu. The service and the staff are excellent. I am surprised that the Fig Tree hasn't received a Michelin Star. Very much worth a visit .

A lovely meal with brilliant, friendly service. It was quite early on a Wednesday evening, so it wasn't busy. Food was a bit pricey but excellent quality, so we didn't mind.
