Location is very handy, food good.

However, it’s really noisy and the staff could improve their PR skills!

The Elm never disappoints on food, delicious as always. But today I was most impressed with the staff. I'd neglected to book a table and on a rainy Friday it seemed that everyone wanted to lunch here. Lots of reserved tables and a queue. Despite being busy, staff kindly informed me that there would likely be a table shortly (I was early to meet friends), they took my details and phoned me within 20 minutes, which was perfect timing. Thanks.

The kitchen staff are the same and food is excellent but the front of house / waitresses are different. Odd unexplained extras added to menu items = 15% extra on bill. Avoid until billing is more transparent....
