Food was good, but little accommodation was made with when I told them I had an intolerance ! There was no adjustment to the menu to suit my “ no onions”. I had been once before and they were able to accommodate a table of 10 with a variety of requests, but this time it was no. Service needs a lot of attention. I don’t think we will go back.

While the food was delicious, and the portions generous- we had to constantly wave down the wait staff for everything. We were seated and then ignored for a solid 20 minutes before we even got water. Once we ordered our drinks (a bottle of wine and water) it took at least another 20 minutes to arrive. The staff mean well and are friendly but don't seem to see the dirty dishes sitting on tables for a long time after the patrons have gone... or the people sitting there awkwardly waiting for a menu for half an hour. We were constantly reminded when wait staff were at our table that everything was to be shared, which is fine. But then when the food actually arrived they asked who ordered what? And we just had to say, we're sharing? So in the middle is fine thanks. It just felt very clunky and awkward. For a hatted restaurant I expected more to be honest.

The confit of duck was fabulous and the rose panna cotte divine. Tristan is an excellent service provider, looking after his tables with efficiency and grace.

It was a lovely dinner and the staff were very friendly and the service was good. The pork we ordered off the set menu was extremely fatty that most of the meal was left on the plate due to the fact it was mostly fat. However, the little meat that was in the dish was delicious. The rose and strawberry dessert was fantastic!

Staying at the Ibterlude so this was a logical choice being only downstairs but a little concerned over a couple of negative reviews so went into it eyes wide open. Clearly a new hotel and restaurant with a very cosy wine bar immediately adjacent. The menu was new this week and in addition to a la carte they offered a very well priced “let’s us feed you” option. From the home baked sourdough starter with cultured butter, through the heritage tomatoes and burratta, confit duck pappardelle, scotch fillet with asparagus, to the panacotta for dessert the meal was without fault and the service impeccable. I can only assume the previous negative reviews attributable to the newness of the hotel and early on teething troubles, because I cannot rate my experience highly enough. Will hopefully return soon.

We were booked for lunch and a tour of the prison. But as we were seated for lunch we were advised that the restaurant had learnt the night before that the tour had been cancelled. Instead of the restaurant notifying us in the morning they told us as we were seated for lunch. Basically rail tossing us into lunch still. Poor communication. It was a long way for us to travel for lunch at an over rated restaurant

Nice restaurant with great staff. Delicious tomato starter, not the bread and water you would expect in a prison, although we did get sourdough and water!
