Daniel M. Ingram:
Ok, sent an email to The Lighterman over a week ago and have heard nothing. I have no phone here, long story. Can anyone call them and ask about the 27th and ask about the size of the group and if we need reservations, and, if so, at what time?
Otherwise, if not needed, I will be there by 6pm and try to find a table for at least 12.
Thanks!
From their website:
Kindly note we accept reservations that intend to dine only and our terraces operate on a walk-in basis. Turn times: 1-5ppl for a period of 2hrs, 6ppl or more for 2.5 hrs.
Normally the terraces would be fine I reckon at 6pm on a Thursday but if it's on the day of a heatwave (forecast 29°) it might be tricky anywhere without a booking. I've tried to book a table for dinner but the closest they have is one table for 8 at 8pm, and one table for 4 at 8.30pm, so I've booked that for now. Not ideal but I can cancel up to 48 hours before without losing a deposit.
I can have a look for alternative places later,
Ed
