The food was outstanding, service felt a little slow, taking our order, clearing the table etc, although the staff was friendly. It was quiet so the atmosphere can't be accurately measured. Will definitely go back again. Lots to try.

Fabulous new tapas range including some delicious rump steak, chargrilled chicken skewers and a great portion of massive garlic prawns. The chimichurri salsa stuff was utterly delicious too. Decent prices £22 for four dishes (£5.50 each!).

So we did go on Monday, left a little disappointed apparently they usually give out beef dripping popcorn at the start they may have stopped this but must have been a really recent change, Between our group we had the a selection of different steaks off the menu including the chateaubriand and we all came to same conclusion it was ok but not as expected from a steak restaurant, for the price we really expected more. Maybe we just expected more but from eating recently at other similar restaurants this one seemed to be below, We will try again in a different day maybe they just had an off day.

As someone new to the area, I stumbled upon this place and had never heard of it. It was so good I came twice in 1 afternoon. The seabass was spot on, the fries went down well for a Friday and the feta salad was better than expected. Massive shout out to Mel who made a huge fuss of me for being a newcomer. I'll be back.....

We loved going to Bar and Block as the ambience was good with excellent food and service. This time around we went with our daughter and the service was ok. I personally felt like we had to wait a long time to get served as it's understaffed and busy. Also, we went small plates and few drinks. The drinks were ok but the food was beyond terrible, it was quite dry and bland. The portion size of skin on fries were really small for nearly £5. You could get better fries from KFC or McDonald's. We were really shocked how bad it became within the last few years. We were so disappointed and left after the starters and few drinks. Our previous experience of the place was completely ruined. I would reconsider going back there again.

We visited Bar & Block to celebrate our son’s 18th birthday and had a fantastic experience. The steaks were cooked perfectly—tender, flavourful, and just how we ordered them. A special shout-out to Karen, our server, who was absolutely lovely and made us feel really welcome. Great service and a great meal made it a memorable evening!

Bang average but over priced. Unfortunately the steak was overdone for all three of us also for the price I feel that the side order such as chips and mac 'n' cheese is a small portion l, the beef popcorn is nice. I am in no hurry to go back. The server was lovely polite and professional, and i like the open kitchen just a shame the food was a let down.

Advised about specific mushroom allergy for one of the party on arrival and again advised server at ordering. Reiterated once order placed and despite this the meal was presented with mushrooms on the plate. Other guest noticed immediately and meal was eventually replaced. While the server was apologetic no manager appeared. Long wait for the initial order to be taken and again delay with main courses which were barely warm when served. Overall seems very short staffed with no management visibility or coordination. Disappointed as booked as special meal with overseas visitors.

Usually I love my food at Bar+Block, but I’ve removed 1* because of my most recent experience. I unfortunately had a bad ribeye steak here last week. I don’t like being awkward, but when I was asked how my meal was, I was honest and said the steak wasn’t great (you could see the half chewed up steak still on the plate). The response from the chef was that this cut of meat is sinewy. I explained I’d had it multiple times before and it hadn’t been like this (I usually just leave the big piece of fat in the middle), and they offered us a free dessert - we were quite full, so just had one between us. I didn’t take a photo this time because I was having an in-depth convo with my friend, but I found a photo of my last ribeye at Bar+Block cooked to perfection and in comparison this one was squidgy, and had a disappointingly grey/dull appearance. Should also note that the jacket potato skin was burnt to the point of being bitter and it came with standard butter, not melted garlic butter like it was served in London (I still think about that steak and potato in London!). In general feedback for the brand, I also don’t think samphire is an adequate side for the meal - it would be nice to have a fuller plate of food, even broccoli would be better than a couple of strands of samphire. Just a suggestion because the plate looked pretty sad when it came out. Never had a problem with service here, I would go again, but I wouldn’t order the ribeye and will definitely speak up earlier in the meal instead of waiting to be asked how it was. If you order ribeye medium, as they recommend it, it should look firm on the outside, with nice charred lines (mine didn’t). It shouldn’t be so sinewy you leave half - speak up at the start of your meal, I’m sure they will fix it for you.

First visit and disappointing. Ordered a medium well 8 oz filet. Came out looking like a dried up husk and was tiny - 4 oz if lucky. Completely over cooked. Understand that food loses weight during cooking but this was ridiculous. Waitress did offer to cook a new one after she noticed how overcooked it was. I’d already eaten most of it by that point so she reduced the bill by £8. Nice atmosphere but not sure I’d go back if they can’t get their speciality right.

I have to say, after reading some bad reviews I was pleasantly surprised. The food is so good! The wife had 8oz sirloin which was cooked to perfection and I had the butchers bangers block and I'd say this is the best meal I've had in a long while also cooked to perfection, yes the prices are quite high but I guess you pay for quality. Good range of beer /lager etc, clean toilets. And our server Karen s was so friendly and happy and enjoyed some good banter. Will definitely return

Myself and a couple of friends visited on a Thursday evening around 6pm, for a long overdue catch up. We were sat straight away and the host introduced us to our server Victoria. I cannot fault her at all, she was so professional and welcoming. She was on top of our orders and getting the cocktails in (which were also amazing, the raspberry margaritas and peach & raspberry mojitos were to die for!). Didn’t catch any of the bartenders names but the drinks came out so swiftly considering we ordered 2-for-1 cocktails for three of us. The food was delicious, I believe the grill chef was called Connor. The mac-and-cheese bites were amazing, just enough for a starter and didn’t leave you feeling too full. The mains came out in a perfect timing and of course, the ribeye was cooked to perfection - full of flavour and delicious. We were far too full for a dessert but they looked delicious! It all comes back to Victoria. Such an asset to the restaurant front-of-house team. We never felt rushed, even though we were all chatting for a very long time. I’m sure we will definitely be back!

Steak was OK, although very sinewy. Scallops and prawns were over priced for the very limited amount on the plate (3 very small prawns). When it came to desert, they offer a Banoffie Cheesecake.

The food and service was excellent. I was a bit hesitant to bring the children here as its more expensive than our normal spots and my youngest is prone to a tantrum, so wasn't sure if we should risk it! Ended up being a very pleasant meal and I would return. There was loads of options for the kids. My one complaint would be the side dishes. I added prawns and scallops for £10 and got 2 prawns and 2 scallops. While they were good the menu does not specify you only get 2 and this seemed very tight fisted.

I had a lovely meal here recently for a friend's birthday and decided to come back with my wife for New Year's Eve. The food was lovely on both occasions, despite a limited menu. As were the cocktails, and general atmosphere. It was very pleasant. I wanted to leave a review however, to highlight just how wonderful our server was tonight. If the receipt is correct their name is Corrine and they were truly fabulous. They were chatty and funny and made our evening a hundred times better than it would have been otherwise. They were also getting a bit of grief from each table beside us, for things beyond their control, and handled themselves very well. So thank you, and I hope you can pass our appreciation on to them. We will return soon and encourage our friends and family to do so too.

Disappointing and Overpriced I went to Bar & Block hoping for a good meal, but the experience was far from satisfying. I ordered an 8oz sirloin for £25, which was clearly not worth the price. The steak came with a very small portion of frozen fries and no other substantial side. If you wanted to add a sauce like peppercorn or chimichurri, it cost an extra £2 for a ridiculously small amount. On top of that, any additional vegetables were priced at a minimum of £4.5, which is simply outrageous. To make matters worse, desserts were priced between £4.5 and £8, and even a basic drink wasn’t cheap. Overall, a meal that should have been enjoyable and reasonably priced ended up feeling like a rip-off for what was offered. If you are planning to eat at Bar & Block you will need around a minimum of £50 per person I wouldn’t recommend it and won’t be returning. There are far better options at this price point.

Overpriced, slow service and don’t honour the 25% discount you can get for sign up. Looked at bill when home and they claim they’ve given us 25% off the food yet only works out as 9% yet says on the bill 25%- so very scammy on prices! Took an hour before we even got our starters, just glad the place has 4 hours free parking! The beef was nice but the potatoes were something you serve at schools, small and sloppy which left the roast dinner down. Lots of menu options unavailable especially vegan options.

Decided to ring up at 5.30pm to see if they could accommodate and ask for a table for 6 they said they could accommodate within an hour. Therefore the blonde girl with tattoos made us feel judged.

I was hugely disappointed at Bar + Block this evening. Despite booking a table, we were left sitting around for over 40 minutes despite several tables being available and walk-ins being sat straight down ahead of us. Only after chasing did we finally get a table, and we saw others sharing the same issues and frustrations leave. Almost 90 minutes after we were due to dine, our food was served tepid, not as described in the menu, and altogether failed to represent good value. Throughout our visit we found most staff dismissive and unwelcoming, although the table waitress was pleasant enough. When her front of house and bar colleagues provide an unwelcoming reception, it makes it so much harder for her to deliver a great customer experience. I was left feeling embarrassed at having selected Bar + Block for our party, and won’t be in any hurry to return.

Pretty good steaks but not the best I've had, very nice chunky chips, the sauce they give you comes in a ridiculously stingy little pot which was a shame. Unfortunately the ambiance of the place was just unpleasant. Really loud upbeat dance/pop music blasting throughout, had to shout to be heard. Why do chain restaurants insist on doing this? Didn't help that we were seated on a very small table surrounded by others in close proxmity.

As a regular visitor, I can honestly say, if you're in Whiteley or the surrounding area, give B+B a visit. The atmosphere is great, the service from the staff always exemplary, especially Karen, who always has a friendly smile and a chat if she has time. I gauge a restaurant 's quality on how busy it is and B+B is busy when you'd expect which must say something about the popularity of the place and the quality of their menu and customer service!

When we arrived there were many staff cleaning and at the bar and no one acknowledged us. Eventually we got seated and ordered. My husband had steak medium and I ordered medium to well. Both steaks we poorly cooked. My husband actually left his as it was congealed and running blood. Mine was also bloody, fkr medium well! The triple cooked chips were so overcooked that they were empty inside, and the prawn side dish had 2 prawns and no garlic butter as discussed with the server. The server was not very helpful. I could not access blue light as no WiFi.

Beautiful meal. Amazing service, so well looked after. Thank you for all the birthday touches you did for my mum it really helped make her day special. The spiral cut steak is always my favourite and the Asian beef starter was really tasty! Such a treat, thank you everyone !

Been here many times but felt the experience wasn't quite as good this time ,they Guinness on tap wasn't working and that's mine and my father's drink ,it's a popular drink and the bar is a major part part of your business ,other drinks we ordered also aren't available ,food was ok but didn't seem as good as previous visits ,Deffentely needs a bit of fine tweaking ,I think I will be looking for another eating option now.

The cocktails were very bland and diluted so we wouldn’t recommend. We had the steak sampler med-Rare which was delicious. Chips weren’t anything special and the onion rings were overdone. The chimichurri sauce was lovely. Our waitress was great and very friendly even though we could see she was very busy with all her tables. Overall steak was delicious but would only have wine in future. Cocktails are awful.

Popped in for some lunch and tried this 2 course lunch menu. Food was class, arrived quick and hot and tasted great. Had an iced coffee as well. Service was lovely I had Kaz as my waitress, she was insightful and welcoming. Overall a very pleasant experience and for £20 can’t complain.

The food was ok, the burger dry, cheeseboard laughable, I have to say all a bit overpriced, not a lot of care had gone into it, but our server Lyndsay was amazing!

Unfortunately this is an overpriced quite disappointing chain restaurant. Firstly the prices are outrageous. £32 for a sirloin? Be serious, you are not Hawksmoor! Secondly the quality is mediocre at best! Burger was burnt and not enjoyable. The staff were lovely but really need to improve their food and drop their prices.

Cocktails, steak and good sides! For a chain restaurant the steaks are pretty good. The desserts are nice as well!

Worse meal so far and been coming here for years. My 12oz steak was more like 8oz. I did question but obviously said it was 12. My wife's steak that was ordered medium was more like almost well done. Such a shame.

After arriving early Tom the greeter was happy to seat us. After some recommendations from Tom we decided on the chateaubriand. After a quick conversation with Aimee she was happy to steer us to some absolutely blinding starters. The service was outstanding from the minute we stepped in and the quality of the food was beyond expectations. Thank you guys we will definitely be in again.

Retains a historic market town feel with an up to date but still classic pub menu. Good choices of drinks and great service

Cracking meal. I had pretty low expectations but couldn’t have been more wrong. The salmon and squid ink pasta was fantastic. The chicken was lovely. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. They’re obviously trying which is great to see.

Fast and friendly service, relaxed atmosphere. Very generous portion sizes, wished they were smaller so I had room for desert. Pizzas were large, light and very nice. Overall a great meal and will visit again if I'm back in the area

Visited on a Saturday night. The food was ok, not the best curry I’ve had. Was looking forward to trying some unique dishes. The Narangi Batakh was disappointing as the duck was quite tough and the sauce was not ‘korma’ as suggested. The Fish Malabar sea bass was also a bit overcooked so that wasn’t great. There was also confusion with what we ordered - we were told they were out of sea bass so we ordered another dish but then they brought the sea bass curry anyway. Also the chicken pakoras were not what I was expecting as they were just chicken chunks in a breaded coating like chicken nuggets. Anyway, the Goan Chicken and Assam Lamb dishes were nice and the Onion Bhajis were delicious. The service was ok, the waiter seemed a bit fed up and the atmosphere was dead. We were seated upstairs by ourselves with no music and just people walking in and out to find the bathroom… Probably won’t go back.
