Very flavorful and interesting dishes. Plating was mostly basic for this style of restraunt. Wine pairing was good. Most servers were good, but descrption of each plate felt like the servers were bored and reading from a script. On a few they, spoke so fast we and other tables near us could not understand them. We were expecting a little more for £275 meal.
We had a great evening in the Set celebrating into my birthday. Set menu was very diverse, had so many surprises, we liked every course but most the scallops tikka masala. Not to forget the cheeseburger butter which we will need our whole life to get to something near to that wonderful taste on our own. Summary: We loved the Set.
Full of character, rustic and with great atmosphere, small plates to share with a nice Wine list to choose from. Food was delicious, some brilliant, cooked fresh and with quality products. Friendly warm service and fairly priced. I think it's a Michelin recommended place, rightfully.

Amazing food, wonderful service, and a great vibe make this place truly special. We absolutely love this place and can't wait to be back!
If you have the opportunity, treat yourself to the Chefs table experience. Highly recommended!
Simply stunning, had the set tasting menu which was 15 courses.... Inventive, interesting and support tasty. Staff are brilliant, service friendly and welcoming, value very high. Go, this place is a hidden gem!
We ate at Cellar, downstairs of The Set. This restaurant feels like a secret, kind of like a speak easy. It's not signposted, you have to go through a restaurant, out into the garden and down into the cellar. Once there you're there you'll be well looked after by chef Paul. Cooking up simple yet delicious food. Mixing your drinks for you and providing all in a relaxed atmosphere l, usually playing some 90s hip hop.
Superb evening meal. Highly recommended
I had Watermilon with goats cheese and seaweed which was superb. The flavour combinations wow. I don't usually like goats cheese but it was a good combo with the watermelon. Then I had Artichoke with ojobianco amazing combination of flavours
Red mullet crevice. For my main I had Char sui monkfish and BBQ pork belly. All the drink were also amazing I would highly recommend
We went to The Set twice in the last month or so, the second time returning for the special Veganuary menu.
Both times the service is really friendly and the food is really nice. Very inventive and wonderful flavours. We enjoyed it very much, and certainly will return.
However i must point out, both times we left still a bit hungry. Not even just comfortable, but a bit hungry. In fact on the second occasion we had to drop off at Leons before the bus to get a quick burger. The Set is not cheap, and the food is wonderful as i said, but it needs more. Either an extra course or something more substantial. We are not espcially greedy or big eaters, but expect to leave satisfied. So please take this as constructive criticism.

This our first time at the new venue and the second time when the entire menu is chosen for you.
We thought we knew what to expect and then wham! You are hit with taste and texture explosions in your mouth.
Some old favourites never fail to disappoint but they are cleverly reconfigured into new dishes. While I mourn the loss of ‘chicken nuggets’ like no other, and miso Marshmallow, I was delighted to spot the red cabbage ketchup with a new bed partner and the miso icecream did not disappoint.
Always inspired cooking with brilliant ingredients.
The attention to detail did not go unnoticed and the supplier listings on the menu gave provenance to the food.
We had the flight of drinks a little worried we would manage them all but they perfectly complimented the food… we couldn’t have chosen better
Service was relaxed, informal and attentive.
Ok maybe we have rose tinted glasses, we love the Set, we always have. And we haven’t been able to travel to find new tastes and flavours which probably created a bit of excitement for us.
This kind of dining isn’t for everyone but we think it’s pure genius!
Thanks again … we will be back
Cool place, nice atmosphere, great service. The food was beautiful for the eyes and very good in taste. Nothing ordinary. All very special. The caffee offers tapas plates and the restaurant offers set menus that goes well with flight wine menus. I loved it. I recommend it. Enjoy!
