Longplay really does tick all of the boxes. The Special Edition menu is filled with variety and each dish perfectly accompanies the next, highly recommend! The wine list is extensive, and you will no doubt learn something new as well. My favorite part is the ambience created by the audiophile Soundsystem and vinyl that is played during the evening.

A quiet catch up between three friends. The recently expanded menu was a treat. Highlights were the beetroot and the calamari from the grill. Always good, always worth the effort. If you haven't been there...why not?

Exceptional service - warm, generous and informative. The food was great, the wine list impressive and the digestif's incredible (can't wait for the Brighter Later Green Walnut to be released!)

Limited menu but delicious food. Nice setting. Service extremely slow - waiting 40 minutes between starter and mains kind of ruins the entire experience, especially as it wasn’t overly busy at that time.
Longplay BistroResponded on 4 January 2025
Hey Simon - cheers for taking the time to review. While we don’t like to rush our guests, we recognise that the wait time was longer than you would have preferred. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the food nonetheless and we appreciate the feedback. We still hope to see you at Longplay again in the future!

The place is an absolute gem! Staff are friendly and knowledgeable, kitchen staff are on display in an open kitchen where you can see their culinary skills. Menu is interesting and designed for sharing. Staff were attentive and ensure that we had breaks between each course and food was ready when we were ready for the next dish. Background music was interesting and really complimented the venue. Sound buffering in the ceiling help reduce ambient noise which is important with so many hard surfaces. Overall a great way to spend our anniversary and will definitely be back.
