A selection of our favourite tweets:



The RSJ is on twitter (@RSJWaterloo). Here is a selection of our favourite tweets. Starting with the RSJ's most famous diner – David Beckham. When he was still in his teens David was frequently in the RSJ when his father, Ted, came in to service our ovens. Then as Victoria tweeted she and David came to the RSJ on their first date.  


A substantial cellar raid carried out The Winery

RSJ 35th anniversary celebration dinner on 30th March 2015




RSJ Restaurant 

 Nigel Wilkinson


Tom King reports:
We had a very good evening last night with upstairs full of many loyal RSJ customers. 

I attach the menu and wines.

The 2008 Anjou Villages from Vincent Ogereau surprised Nigel and I about how well it was showing. I pulled the corks in the morning and the additional breathing time had certainly done it a favour as it was lovely and rounded with a really nice concentration.

The 1986 Clos de L'Echo was from magnums and was very good - lovely mature Chinon with life still ahead.
