  “We came here for our first wedding anniversary and can confirm that Rafters entirely justifies the stellar reputation it enjoys. We were seen to by Nathan (sommelier), Will, Moby and Ben (FOH) and Dan and Sam (kitchen) and I've never had such attentive and anticipatory service before. This is not my first time in an upmarket restaurant and this was by far the best service I've ever had. The entire team were very knowledgeable and excellent at swooping in just as we needed anything. We had a vegan 10 course menu which was outstanding start to finish. Vegan food is not always the easiest to keep engaging but every dish was knockout here. An interesting and varied menu which I thoroughly enjoyed, with some excellent wine recommended by Nathan. Atmosphere was relaxed and smart casual. It's a small, intimate venue ideal for special occasions. Overall very happy indeed. It's not cheap but for the level of experience it was unquestionably worth it. If you're considering it I would strongly advise just pulling the trigger. We will absolutely be returning in the future.”

  “We finally made it to Rafters after wanting to visit for so long, and it did not disappoint! The food was absolutely outstanding, and the service was just as impressive. Was really surprising they put a special touch on the menu with my name, made the experience more special. Honestly, we’re surprised it hasn’t earned a Michelin star yet. The staff were all so welcoming and friendly, making the experience even better. We’ll definitely be returning soon for special celebrations!”
