Are frequent visitors to Ripe, their Lindt hot chocolates are sublime, however, most recent visit is the first time in 15 years that I've been disappointed. Service was very slow & haphazard and food was undercooked, with another dish cold. Luckily we'd enjoyed our hot chocolates in the wait for the food, almost made up for food. In fairness, it was an extremely busy Sunday morning - brunch time. Lady next to us on communal table not quite as patient with slow service as us & disgusted with her omelette which was burnt on the bottom & cold. We will go back, but will choose a less busy time.

A lovely setting with a nice menu. Pleasant service and the children enjoyed toasted sandwhiches and cakes but were disappointed with no milkshakes. Hot chocolates were a salvation. One of our cakes was quite badly burnt on the bottom and we couldn't eat it. We let staff know when we went to pay but still paid full price. A bit disappointing. Probably would not go back.
