5 /5 Kapil Varshney: Caxton Grill cooked me into emotional confusion — and honestly, I loved it.
As the person behind YourFoodFantasy, I’ve eaten a lot of stunning meals… but Caxton Grill really said, “Hold my cocktail.” I came in expecting a nice dinner; I left wondering if I should rewrite my entire understanding of flavour.
The butternut steak? Outrageous. I took one bite and immediately started reevaluating my life choices. The lamb chops were so tender I nearly apologised to them for not meeting them sooner. And the soup? Let’s just say if British weather tasted this comforting, I’d never complain again.
Then the desserts arrived. The guava mousse is the kind of dessert that grabs you by the feelings and refuses to let go. The cheesecake? A masterpiece. If I could legally marry a dessert, we’d be planning our honeymoon.
And the cocktails… look, I don’t know what wizardry the bartender practices, but after one sip I was ready to make questionable life decisions in the best possible way.
The service? Spot on. Warm, attentive, and refreshingly unpretentious. The staff glide around like they’ve been trained by the hospitality equivalent of the Royal Ballet.
St. Ermin’s Hotel sets the scene perfectly — elegant, romantic, with just a hint of “007 might walk in any minute.”
