For information on making the most of your next visit to your favourite Ivy Collection location
Our main restaurant can be accessed by wheelchair via our main entrance. The access to the restaurant can be either with the use of an assisted ramp or mobility chair. Please inform us if you require assistance in advance so that one of our staff members can assist at the time of reservation.
Please note, that our toilets are currently not accessible to wheelchair users at The Ivy Dawson Street, Dublin and The Ivy in The Lanes, Brighton
Unfortunately, due to the restaurant layout, we are not able to accommodate large groups on multiple tables. If your party size exceeds the maximum table size for the main restaurant please contact our private dining team by calling 0203 727 6548 or emailing [email protected]. We offer larger parties a bespoke booking service, with exclusive menus and private rooms.
We are unable to allow dogs in the restaurant, however, Registered Assistance Dogs are of course welcome.
Our dress code is smart casual. Tailored shorts and short sleeved shirts are permitted during fine weather. However, guests are asked to be respectful of the fact that many diners will be dressed for a celebration.
We don’t take reservations for drinks, but we’ll do our best to find you a place at the bar whether you’re waiting for your table, or just joining us for post dining cocktails.
To ensure dining experiences are enjoyable for all guests in our restaurant we do not allow party decorations or balloons. However, if you’d like to have a celebration cake, we’d be happy to help. Just let us know at least 48 hours before your booking and we’ll talk you through the available options. You are, of course, more than welcome to bring your own celebration cake with you. Due to health and safety regulations, we won’t be able to serve it to you, but we can present it at your table after your meal and keep it aside for you to take with you when you leave.
We welcome children of all ages. Please do count them (including babies) into your final party size. If you would require a highchair or space for a pushchair, please specify this at the time of booking.
While we always do our very best to fulfil our guests’ requests, all tables are allocated on arrival and can’t be guaranteed in advance.
We have a range of gift vouchers available to purchase via our website. If a loved one or colleague is dining with us and you’d like to treat them to a bottle of champagne or some vouchers towards their meal with us then please call us on 0330 055 7045 and we will organise this for you.
