Used a voucher for the Sicilian wine tasting. Mike was a good host, knew his stuff. Wines were nice, and they don&#39;t skimp on the food portions either. Solid way to spend an evening.

Nice spot for a group dinner. The portions are huge, and Jon was great at walking us through the menu. Found a really interesting local red that went surprisingly well with the heavier dishes. A bit loud for my taste, but that&#39;s the trade-off for the buzz.

Been coming here for a while now, and the food just never misses. Their lamb shank is so tender it falls right off the bone, and the gravy is just spot on. Honestly, it&rsquo;s the main reason I keep coming back to this place in Bristol.

The curried goat was the highlight. It&#39;s rich and flavourful, not overly sweet like some places do it. The seasoning was spot on. A really nice, comforting dish.

They read my note for the birthday order, which was a really nice touch. The food still tasted great even delivered.

Nice spot for a drink. The back garden theatre is a fun touch. My Negroni was well-balanced, not too sweet. Just a bit pricey for the portion, but the vibe is relaxed.

Third year for Christmas lunch, already booked for 2026. The chips and homemade tartare sauce are spot on. A glass of their house red was a perfect match for the festive mood.

The restaurant offers a fantastic selection of dishes, including an impressive Indian curry and lamb shank, making it a great dining option for hotel guests.

As someone who avoids dairy, I was pleasantly surprised by the menu here. Plenty of tasty options that didn&#39;t feel like an afterthought. The staff was really helpful when I had questions too.

Garlic bread was decent. Seafood linguine though&mdash;clams and prawns were fresh, pasta cooked just right. That&#39;s what I remember. Bill seemed fair for it.

The food was pretty good. Gracelyn was lovely, very friendly with a nice smile. Service was fine overall, though it did get a bit slow when they got busy. I&rsquo;d come back with friends.

Had a fab time catching up with friends here. Shout out to Izzy for helping us pick beers - she really knows her stuff. The vibe was just right for a chilled evening out.

The gambas were fantastic, and the patatas bravas were a nice surprise too. But the main thing for me was the space &ndash; it&#39;s got a really relaxed, airy feel. You don&#39;t feel cramped at all, even when it&#39;s busy.

A proper gem of a local cafe. The food is wholesome and cooked to order, which I love. The staff were so friendly, it just felt like a warm, welcoming spot.

First time here on a busy Saturday. The music was good, service was actually pretty quick considering the crowd. Prices were okay for a special event day, not too crazy. I&#39;d come back.

Been coming here for years, and the pasta is always spot on. Had the carbonara last night, creamy but not heavy. That consistency keeps me coming back.

Noticed this restaurant for the last few months and was thinking about trying it out. The food rating was important and google ratings and both were exceptionally high.Booked a table online and went there on the weekend.The menu is varied and not complicated to read, the seating is good and the restaurant is well lit and busy which is a plus. Ordered and food took a while which means its fresh and the presentation was excellent, portions are large so even a small rice can feed two people. Tasty food and pleasant staff who take the time to talk.Will return next month and the cost is acceptable and to me not overpriced. Will recommend the Spare ribs as a starter, excellent.

Lovely pub, great atmosphere. Peter behind the bar was a real highlight, so attentive. He remembered our drinks order from last time, which was a nice touch. Made the evening feel that bit more personal.

The Sunday roast is solid. Beef was properly rare, roast potatoes crisp. Cauliflower cheese good too. Gravy was rich and plentiful. Portion size is decent for the price.

Food was incredible. Flavours were spot on, service was attentive without being overbearing. Just a really solid meal, no complaints.

The &#39;3 seasons&#39; chicken is what brought me here. It&#39;s got this unique sweet and savoury glaze, and the meat was so tender. Haven&#39;t seen that dish anywhere else! Service was quick and friendly too. A solid spot for Thai food.

A quiet Sunday lunch spot. The interior has this lovely, worn-in warmth &ndash; exposed brick and soft lighting. The pizza was a bit salty for my taste, but the flavours were genuinely good. A nice, relaxed place to unwind.

Been coming here for years after our weekend walks. The ales are always spot on, properly kept and consistent pint after pint. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

Been coming for years, and their tiramisu is still the one I order every time. Just the right balance of flavour and texture.

The lunch menu is a solid deal. The staff were really helpful in picking a wine that went with my pasta.

Love popping in here for a bite. The staff are genuinely lovely, which always makes it a nice visit. Had the grilled sea bass last time&mdash;cooked just right, skin was super crispy.

The roast beef was a bit tough, and the veg was hard to cut through. A shame, as the service from the staff was really spot-on and friendly.

Xxxxx We visit the Toby Carvery at Bridgend regularly and find it consistent in both quality of food and service which we would rate as very good.  We would have no hesitation in recommending this particular restaurant to anyone for both quality of food and service.

The tapas were spot on. Patatas bravas had a nice crispy texture, and the gambas al ajillo were swimming in a garlicky oil that was perfect for dipping bread. Good selection of beers to wash it all down.

They managed our large group booking flawlessly. The pre-order communication was clear and the service never felt rushed, even when busy.
