City View Restaurant - The fun, the food and the fine dining.
With 2017 now behind us, City View Restaurant look back on their busy, event-packed year full of not only busy lunches and fine dining evenings, but charity nights, fund-raisers and themed dining evenings, too.
Staff and students site-wide are impressed with the consistent effort put in by the restaurant; their customers also seem to agree...
One visitor said:
"Fantastic service and great value for money. The students run the restaurant in such a very professional manner and the food is of a ‘London restaurant’ quality without the London prices. Definitely a hidden gem and worth a visit at lunch time or Thursday evening visit."
Another customer also commented:
"What a lovely night!! Great food, student waiters were fantastic. We met the student chiefs and their teachers!! Really inspiring knowing that young people can produce great food such as this."
