    Lovely food. Service rather cool and perfunctory. Despite ticking birthday as special occasion, nothing was done for us.

    The food was quite nice but the service was lacking. I had to ask someone to take our drinks order, food order, clear the table and ask for the bill

    Excellent as always. Went for afternoon tea and the restaurant was buzzing. The place is one of our go to spots and always delivers. As always we have food envy from some of the other diners and hence will be back again as soon as possible.

    I came here two weeks ago for afternoon tea and then yesterday we came here for my birthday. The food is delicious but we had to ask to order our drinks, and then ask to order our food. I thought this was a one of two weeks ago for afternoon tea but this also happened yesterday for my birthday. Unfortunately although the food is delicious this doesn’t make up for the slow service, considering the price of everything. It’s a shame that this has happened twice and it wasn’t even overly busy either time, we just felt a bit ignored.

    The food and decor were amazing but the service let it down. The child's meal we ordered didn't arrive until after we had finished eating and nobody came to ask if we wanted another drink after the initial drinks order had been placed. We will try again as the food was so good and hope for a better overall experience.
    The Ivy Asia, GuildfordResponded 6 days ago
    Dear Nicky, Thank you for your feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed our food and decor, but we're truly sorry that the service did not meet expectations on this occasion. Ensuring a smooth and enjoyable dining experience for all our guests is very important to us, and we will certainly address the issues you’ve mentioned with our team. We appreciate you giving us another chance and look forward to providing you with the excellent service that matches the quality of our food. We hope to welcome you back soon
