The 3 of us had a thoroughly wonderful meal at Maxwells. The service was excellent and the food was outstanding. The staff are very accommodating. Originally, we had booked a… read more rooftop table, however, it was one of the hottest days and we asked to be reseated. No problem whatsoever; a table was found within a couple of minutes of our request. We have a rebooked a table for Septembe. We would definitely recommend Maxwells.

This was my third visit. The first time was very good. The second time, I sat in view of the kitchen. I saw a young man eating something from an… read more oven tray and wiping the food with a tea towel. I gave them the benefit of the doubt as the food was quite good and front of house staff friendly. On my third visit, I saw the a girl behind the bar clean out something from a cup with her fingers, which she then put on a tray to serve to someone. She was then scratching her hair quite a lot. I then saw her take out a new bottle of gin, she couldn’t remove the plastic from over the lid so used her teeth to remove it. I’m afraid this was the last straw so I won’t be doing back.

We regularly come here for something to eat and drink. The service is always prompt and the staff are very welcoming and hard working. Dogs are welcome on the front… read more terrace and always receive a treat. There’s a good selection of food on offer and often a weekly specials menu. We have always enjoyed our meals here. The roof terrace is lovely on a sunny day just to sit and watch the world go by with a glass or two. I would recommend this cafe bar.

I had a great time at Maxwells! A friend and I visited when we still weren’t allowed to sit indoors (couple of weeks ago) so we sat on the roof… read more terrace and it was fabulous! Fully covered, with heaters for when it got a bit chilly, what is there to complain about? The food was delicious also, and we very much enjoyed our drinks (would very much recommend the cocktail pitchers). The service was good; the staff had it running like clockwork and were being very covid-conscious. It was a wonderful night out all round!
One thing to note: if you’re going to make the bathrooms a one in one out rule, then I’d suggest stopping groups of girls from going in all at once to take photos with each other. I didn’t care but others might.
