The Forge

14 Garrick Street (entrance on Floral Street),
WC2E 9BJ

Actual price per head: £30 for those who had set menu, and £50 for those who went a la carte.

Nearest tube: Leicester Square (Northern Line and Piccadilly Line).

Remarks

The set menu was £22 for three courses including half bottle of wine wine plus service charge; about 3 choices per course.

The room was a cosy affair with two tables sitting eight each.

People on each table gelled well and there were a lot of positive comments about the place.

That said, looking across at the set menu food, it did not look fabulous and the a la cartes had very good food even to the point of superior real chips over french fries, but people enjoyed themselves and no one voiced dissent. With these nights the company is as important as the food.
