They ask you about dislikes/food allergies when you first make your reservation. They call to confirm your reservation a few weeks before you go and reconfirm everything then.

You have to get the coffee when you go . . . so tasty and you'll love the way it's brewed.

Late to this thread. But the coffee....is what made me want to go . Haven't discussed it with DH though, yet. But I'm a barista & a coffee snob. So!

It was a fantastic night. Our 4 year is coming up and I'd love to go back, but I'm afraid I can't afford it this time around.

We did wine pairing and since it was a holiday, the price was jacked up. It was 500 for the two of us with tip.

Was there a charge for the harpist learning the song?! That's fantastic !

The servers at V&A are professionals, they truly want you to be happy and satisfied.

It's all about you!

Good to hear...

They had shawls? Wow...

JenKatt · 10-16-2012, 06:25 PM

That's so neat!

I think I have DH convinced.

DrGaellon · 10-16-2012, 07:06 PM

I'm figuring two dinners plus one wine flight, with tax and tip, is about $400-425. Can anyone confirm?

Cheshire Figment · 10-16-2012, 07:38 PM

$135 x 2 = $270 + $65 = $325. Add tax at 6.5% and tip at 20% = $325 x 26.5% = $86.13 + $325 = $411.13. And that is without any of the add-ons.

But if you have a TiW card you will save $69.23 for the 20% reduction in the bill and the reduction of the tax, as that is calculated after the discount for a final price of $341.90.

DrGaellon · 10-16-2012, 07:47 PM

Thanks. It was the tax rate I was missing.

MoonFaerie · 10-28-2012, 12:21 PM

Does anyone know how it works if I have an ADR for 4 and we end up only having 2. We have V&A booked as our celebratory dinner after the Princess Half Marathon. Right now, it's going to be me, my BFF, her mom, and her sister. Only now it looks like it might only be 2 of us. What should I do?

DrGaellon · 10-28-2012, 12:26 PM

Just call and tell them. Fewer guests should never be a problem...

Yes. I think it was $400 for us. I did do the Kobe and we also had coffee.

DrGaellon · 11-06-2012, 08:31 AM

Two dinners, one wine flight, one Kobe upgrade, tax and a generous tip (they comped us two glasses of Champagne and a glass of wine for our anniversary) came to $475.

t_daniels · 11-08-2012, 10:08 AM

Excited. Just made ADR here for our next trip- celebrating our 5th anniversary.

Now....to dress shop!

sabcook · 11-08-2012, 11:56 AM

I can't wait - we leave for our trip in a few weeks and are celebrating our 14th wedding anniversary there. I am trying to talk DH into the wine flights as we've eaten there twice now without them.

Good luck! My DH won't, he doesnt really drink. I may though.

We cannot wait until tomorrow. DW and I have the Chef's Table. We will try and check in early so we have plenty of time to get ready and head over.
