This was a memorable family get-together with Australian relatives and Kettners could not have been a better venue. The atmosphere and decour are classic, the food delicious (a small, but high quality menu), the service first class and the price per head entirely reasonable. Would unhesitatingly return.

It was delicious and affordable! It did take a little to get your food but it wasn’t the longest wait I had to do. Definitely recommend this for anyone who has something to celebrate but doesn’t want anything big or grand. My wife absolutely loves it!

My girlfriend and I frequent Palm Court Brasserie every Christmas which has become a bit of a tradition. We always seem to sit on the same table which we love. This time, as ever before, was no exception. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was great and the food was tremendous and good value considering its location. My girlfriend has a milk allergy, and was immediately put at ease when the waiter came over and walked her through the menu in terms of what could be modified etc. which always makes the experience much more enjoyable for her. This was further enhanced at the end when the manager also checked the her allergy was adequately catered for. Overall, a fantastic experience and we’re already looking forward visiting again next year.
