fantastic manager who is so welcoming and helpful, even after having been there for 17 years! Always delivers on food - brilliant menu, with good quality ingredients simply cooked. Friendly staff, and a lovely open airy feel. The garden is brilliant for warm summer nights too. Thank you Branca team!

My wife and I had a pre-theatre dinner at Branca. The service was prompt and friendly. Out food was excellent and the coffee outstanding. Highly recommended.

Fantastic birthday meal at Branca on Saturday night. Wonderful service and the food was excellent. We were really well looked after. Only small issue was the VERY loud table next to us, and even though our waitress apologised it wasn't her fault. Still a great night out.

Great restaurant, but try to get a table further from the door. A cold draught occurs every time the door is opened, which in a restaurant this size is lots.
