    Good food, but rather a close packed restaurant. Became expensive too, they now add a hefty service charge to the bill.

    All the staff were friendly, attentive and professional. The restaurant had a very nice atmosphere. We enjoyed the Theatre Meal which is tasty and good value. An old school friend and I come to Palm Court every year for my birthday. I always get a card from the waiters and a small cake with a candle. I think it's a really nice gesture and I never grow tired of it. We were served by a very lovely waiter called Jesus who couldn't do enough for us. He had an amazing sense of humour and made us laugh, whilst remaining strictly professional. He enhanced our enjoyment of the restaurant and we left smiling. Looking forward to our next visit.
