Brilliant venue staffed by the nicest staff ever. Very well worth a visit.
Six of us went recently and enjoyed the experience so much I am now booking again for food.the food quality surpassed many top London restaurants and I have eaten at a few.the flavours and textures were all there. Our waiter Ben was charming and efficient.he was proactive and when my wife mentioned some allergies she has he was quick to adapt her preferred dishes and drink.Naturally no alcohol is served but there is a good range of soft drinks and a mocktail of the day.i had a few issues as I am in an electric wheelchair but again the management team were quick to get me into the restaurant a different way and out through the main entrance.I don’t know how many of the prisoners go into catering when released but I am sure they will easily get a job, in fact we were told that two recently obtained employment at The Savoy Hotel in London.
Food was fantastic. Atmosphere was great. Price was reasonable. Service was good. Minor slip ups but could not have been more accommodating and happy to chat to you. A great experience out of my comfort zone.
Only negative would be that you have to leave the restaurant in groups for security reasons. So you may have to wait for slow eaters to finish before leaving. Can't hold that against them though.
Amazing concept with prisoners as chefs and waiters. You wouldn’t know! Service is such incredible quality and the food is so delicious. Really, really recommend. Even cater to vegans!
Been meaning to have lunch at the Clink for many years and finally got there. Food was excellent as well as the service and it was interesting talking with the inmate who served us (very friendly and open about his past and his experience in prison). Really impressed with this charity giving inmates skills and confidence for when they leave prison. Highly recommended.
