We love the small plates and have had them many times, however, the bao buns were dry mainly because the chef had skimped on the duck filling. Such a shame as we love this place and have introduced lots of new customers over the years.

Our first time at The Vault. We absolutely loved every bit of it. The venue, the staff and the food were brilliant. Only thing I will add is that as it was quiet the night we came the music was a bit too loud. But that's just a small minor thing. Overall it was fab

Great visit for our first Sunday lunch at The Vault, baby shower in progress which was loud at times and might have been nice to have been aware of this when we booked. Meal was lovely, cauliflower cheese needed more cheese for my taste and food overall could have been hotter but would definitely visit again

We had a fabulous evening meal here. The food was outstanding and well priced. The staff were very polite and friendly. The only thing that could have made this better is if you offered more non alcoholic cocktails or mocktails and the chairs were comfier but overall a great night. Thank you

We had a great evening. The only point to make was to remind your team to watch tables to check if customers want more drinks. We had to approach the bar to reorder as the (all extremely pleasant) staff were in conversation. It’s a minor point and didn’t detract from our evening but it’s something I recall from student days working in restaurants to keep an eye out.

Thoroughly enjoyed our evening. Staff were lovely and they kindly reimbursed us as post ordering the dish wasn't available due to chef being concerned over the fat content of the meat, I was impressed the staff were open about this instead of serving regardless of quality. For this reason alone we will be back. It was a great first visit.

I felt the staff could have been more friendly, there was not a lot of smiling. She main was an £18 fish dish which was dry and didn’t come with enough sauce. I would only return if the vegetarian menu changed. Pasta and pesto or goats cheese risotto are not great choices. The environment is nice but as usual the couple tables are too close together.

Too noisy. Couldn't hold a conversation. Service was good with nice staff. Food good, maybe we were just unlucky with the general ambiance.
