Curveside Bistro in Leicester

I recently visited curveside, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. The coffee I had was superb – rich, flavorful, and brewed to perfection. The breakfast offers a great variety of options, whether you're a coffee lover or prefer something different. I especially appreciated the friendly and attentive service. The staff was warm, professional, and made sure everything was just right. I highly recommend curveside if you're looking for a place with great coffee, excellent service, and a welcoming environment. I'll definitely be returning soon!

After a perfect breakfast, I was very happy to finish it with a perfect coffee…

I’ve been searching for the perfect coffee in Leicester for quite some time, and today, I finally found it! The coffee I had was, without a doubt, the best I’ve tasted in this city. From the very first sip, I was blown away by the rich flavors. You can tell that the beans were carefully selected and roasted to perfection. The taste was smooth, well-balanced, and had just the right amount of acidity – neither too bitter nor too weak, simply perfect! Not only was the coffee itself amazing, but the presentation was also top-notch. The barista crafted it with such care and added a beautiful latte art design on top, which made the whole experience feel even more special. Each sip felt like a reward for my taste buds, and the cozy atmosphere of the café made it all the more enjoyable. If you’re a coffee lover in Leicester, I highly recommend trying this place. It’s a hidden gem for anyone who appreciates quality coffee!

Cafe Americano is one of the best I have ever had before

Had an excellent breakfast at curveside. Great service.

Excellent breakfasts. Friendly service.

The coffee was not good it tasted awful which partner had to throw away and our sausage cob tasted like plastic shall never order from here again we want a refund

lovely little place, I got a coffee and a homemade cinnamon roll and it was delicious! staff were so friendly :))

I do love a good breakfast. Curveside didn’t disappoint Good quality tasting food

The staff are very friendly and helpful, have been a few times and everytime I've been nothing is too much trouble (even picked up my crutches for me) can highly recommend the full English breakfast as good quality, and the price is very reasonable 👍🤤🧑‍🦽👌 thanks 🙏

I had a mighty breakfast. Cooked well, presented well and tasted great. Good value.

I will always recommend Curveside Bistro to anyone that asks for somewhere nice to eat. The food is great. The staff are always very friendly. The atmosphere is excellent. I have been coming here for years and the place gets better and better. Don't change a thing.

Really good food and excellent service. Perfect if your staying at the encore hotel or just visiting Leicester.

wow absolutely amazing even they read my note and they did absolutely what it said definitely recommend delivery driver was friendly and the service is amazing will order again 100% thankyou youre a legend

Stay at the Ramada hotel but the hotel breakfasts are to expensive for what I think. Had an excellent breakfast at curveside !

I've only just found this place. Got to be honest, I don't think I'll bother going for breakfast anywhere else. Lovely people, the breakfast was cooked to perfection, and both of my lattes were literally the best coffee I have ever had. Everyone should try it!

Excellent food and very warm and welcoming atmosphere. I would definitely recommend. This will now become my local. The owner is a lovely man.

Very good food good price very clean

Very good food well priced and very clean

Warm place owned by a gentleman. Coffee is like or even better than Starbucks.

Great breakfast, everything was cooked perfectly. Good music and friendly service

Mind blowing espresso experience with a side treat. Breakfast varieties seem also mouth watering.

The place is really nice and the owner as well. The food is amazing too.

Excellent service and delicious food

I was staying at the Ramada opposite and I didn't want to pay for an overpriced stale hotel breakfast. I'm so happy I saw Curveside, beautiful ham, cheese and mushroom omelette and gorgeous black coffee! Highly recommended!

Classic English breakfast, well cooked sausages Great service, absolutely amazing.

Very nice service and clean place. Besides owner of the shop is a very kind person. I wanted to talked with him and asked lots of questions. He answered all my questions patiently. Thanks Sinan Baylan. 👏👍🏻

Nice place for breakfast.Friendly staff.

Lovely bacon and sausage quality ingredients happy to order again.. maybe a pinch of sale and pepper on the scrambled egg would of topped it off me not having to get out my seat hahaha easily a 9/10

I can’t fault a single item from my order! No missing items, order notes and delivery notes were not ignored like some other restaurants. We tried the Mega Breakfast from here and every single item was absolutely delicious! Great portion sizes, cooked to perfection and delivered right on time and piping hot! The delivery guy was also nice and polite which made our day too. Will definitely be ordering from here again and can’t wait to try other things on the menu, 100% recommend! :)

Wonderful breakfast, very well served and the staff is super friendly. I would totally recommend!

The breakfast took over an hour to cook and the bread and bacon was from Tesco. We were told we had to wait for them to go to Tesco to get our bacon, which is frankly ridiculous. The sausages tasted like food poisoning and the milk jugs weren't cleaned properly. The one upside was that, after waiting 45 minutes for a cup of tea we were given the drink for free, the first ones anyway. Due to the length of our wait we asked for more tea, and that one we did have to pay for. Furthermore, when we ordered our food, the waitress told us the item we had ordered from the menu in our hands was not on the menu and even after showing it to her she had to go to the kitchen to check that item existed!

Absolutely shocking breakfast, I came because I was hungover and still threw half of it away it was that bad. Eggs were so overcooked it was like eating rubber. The tomatoes were literally cold own brand straight from a tin, and the bacon was in a pool of grease when I opened the container, I know bacon is greasy but this was vile. They asked if I wanted tomatoes or beans with my big breakfast, I asked for both and they said ok, it wasn't until I got home with my takeaway I realised they had actually substituted a sausage for the tomatoes without telling me! It's a shame because its so close to my house and the guys were friendly. AVOID.

Really wanted it to be good as I live so close but honestly it's probably the worst English breakfast I've ever had.

If you want an inexpensive, tasty and satisfying meal, then you definitely should visit this place.

very good~ I like this place. Very suitable for Chinese people’s taste.

Really nice food quiet little cafe more seating upstairs

I ate big breakfast today. was great. and the staff is very friendly

Very good panini i liked bacon brie and cranberry the most. I recommend this place

The best breakfast I ever had in Leicester, quick and very nice staff. Tasty food! Will come back again as usually

Not great. Waitress ok, but didn't really know the menu, we were waiting for breakfast over an hour because they were "busy". Breakfast not the best either simply due to the TESCO value nature of the ingredients. There's potential here but the game needs to be upped.

Very friendly staff. Great Lavazza Coffee!!

Fast service and delicious food

Great little restaurant, awesome breakfast selection!! Highly recommend trying this place you wont regret it!

Absolutely disgraceful! Service EXTREMELY poor! Deliveroo stated they could deliver the food within 20 minutes. When we rang to add onions in to a crusty cob they first said we are not delivering! Then they said well spend £15.00 and we will deliver! Not to mention they barely understood anything we were saying and then they kept passing the phone around!

I pop in here a few times a week for a take away lunch. Usually get served promptly. They do fantastic soups but unfortunately these haven’t been available recently. I usually have a filled roll with salad. There is a choice of fillings but I’ve noticed the servings aren’t as generous as they used to be. But overall happy with my desk lunch from here.

flawless breakfast especially mighty breakfast. Very chiper price. The employees are very kind and friendly. Good area.

Very nice breakfast. Most chiper menu

Excellent breakfasts with all you could want on the menu, this cafe has friendly efficient staff, and is worth diverting to. Recommended!

Impressed with the burger meal deal at £4 it’s a bargain. The meal tasted very nice for the price and staff friendly. The only bit of feedback I would have is perhaps an option for a soft burger bun.

Was over in Leicester for the weekend, for a Family Wedding. Stayed at the Ramada, right beside. Called in here each Morning for Brekkie. Absolutely great wee spot. So clean, and friendly service. The Breakfast was a fair plateful, at an amazing price. Freshly cooked and beautiful. Will definitely be back.

Now changed hands and gone down an awful lot. Try somewhere else. Cannot think of anything else to say, so disappointing.

Went for a baguette and watched on as the staff proceeded to pull a long strand of hair off a piece of meat in the chilled display.They did not dispose of the meat, just simply took the hair off it!!!No hats or hairnets covering the staffs long hair.... it is allowed to simply flow onto food!Needless to say, i will no longer buy my lunch from Curveside Bistro!!!

During a cold morning, I really wanted a warm meal. I went to the Curveside Bistro to get a special baguette breakfast. Best choice I could have done. Good baguette with eggs, bacon, sausage, mushrooms and beans. Soooo goooood. I really recommend it. Just 3£, worth it.

Not much that I can say about Curveside for breakfast. You get just what is advertised. The setting is nice, it is a large breakfast at an exceptionally affordable price. On top of that the service was excellent.

Very friendly service and great value: I had a good small breakfast (toast, bacon, egg, sausage, beans and tomato), plus a good coffee for under a fiver. The sausage was a little cheap looking, but otherwise all fine. Both better and much cheaper than the Ramada I was staying at, right across the road.

Perfectly cookes serves with a smile benn a couple of times now it's clean friendly and service is spot on see you soon guys

Right opposite the Ramada Encore Hotel, very reasonable, would recommend the panninis. Didn't try anything else but the menu looked good.

Whether you're looking for breakfast, coffee or lunch, this city-centre venue will cater for you. The staff are very accommodating and the food is well-cooked. There is also a wide choice of rolls and baguettes available.

Really great breakfast here. Very reasonably priced and nice decor upstairs. May I suggest a grilled tomato instead of tinned tomatos though.

Conocimos a nuestro hijo aquí para un desayuno tardío antes de coger. Rápido servicio eficiente , sabroso desayuno inglés cocinado. Mucha variedad . sólo pequeña cafetería con ocho mesas aproximadamente por dentro.

Good selection of breakfast items from toast to full English. Staff are nice and accommodating even allowing us to use a plug socket to charge a mobile phone. Nice coffee and my poached eggs on toast were lovely.

A lovely little bistros to enjoy light snacks and breakfast.It is very friendly and welcoming.The rolls are nice too.!!

Great food and all the team at Torrwaterfield love our Friday morning breakfast from here. Highly recommend !

Just found this place excellent value breakfast and rolls.Understand it was a. Steak restaurant bu not enough clientele shame.

My friend and I decided to eat here prior to seeing a show as it was close to the NCP carpark next to the theatre and they offered a pre show meal deal - 2 courses for £12.95. I must admit I didn't expect much as it is very small inside on the ground floor. On entry no one was around so we had to call to the kitchen see if we could have a table. Once seated the staff were very attentive. We both ate off the deal menu and chose prawn cocktail and Pate with both of us choosing a steak. Mine medium rare my friends well done. Not the best steaks ever but acceptable for the price. The chips were made with real potatoes which was nice. Not the biggest portions ever but we were satisfied. For convenince when visiting the theatre we would consider chossing this place again.

Went to to the curveside bistro with my family for a meal .First we were met by two lovely waitresses who very friendly and made us feel right at home .Our meal were great cooked to perfection , so to sum up great meal friendly staff and I would go again

I have eaten here but called in for a coffee and the staff were very helpful and freindly I will be eating here very soon.

Stayed at the Ramada across the road and ate in 5 different establishments. They were all fine (Bella Italia, Buffetmania, Wetherspoons, ChutneyIvy and Curveside Bistro whch was the best).Our choice of food was perfectly cooked and presented. Really friendly service. If the theatre had been showing I imagine it would have been a lot busier, so we were lucky. Highly recommended.

Great food, staff and second to none. Brilliant value for money, I have been going to Curvesdie for years on a regular basis and will continue to do so.

I travel a lot around the UK and eat in a lot of different restaurants. what a pleasant surprise it was to have freshly prepared food rather than the 'ping cuisine' many places now churn out. The decor isn't too appealing and the food presentation could be sharper but I thoroughly enjoyed the scallops and sea bass and will be returning soon.

We decided to take the lazy option of stepping out of the hotel, strolling a few yards and settling in this small and welcoming bistro. What could be easier! We enjoyed dinner , starting with scallops followed by sea bass, others had steak and everyone was satisfied. The staff were lovely and keen to ensure quality service. We were so pleased with dinner that we went back next morning for breakfast and it was still just as good, the service and the food. This is a humble restaurant with no frills but good food.

I ate here two weeks after enjoying a somewhat more expensive, but otherwise similar, steak at the renowned Gaucho Grill in London's West End.As the name indicates this is more cafe style in appearance than restaurant, serving locally sourced, quality dishes with a minimum of fuss.Flat mushrooms with just enough dolcelatte to excite the taste buds without overwhelming the dish made a terrific starter, followed by a melt in the mouth fillet.The menus do not include a wine list but I enjoyed the house Rioja and Merlot and, being slightly cynical, expected to be charged premium price for the pleasure but this was not the case.I would fully recommend this if you are looking for a hearty traditional meal in a relaxed, informal settng with pleasant service at very fair prices.

We attended the Curves ide on a Saturday night as a couple. We had a booking for 8pm and when we arrived the place was fairly empty but did become more busy quite quickly. They only take bookings after 8pm and I believe the restaurant might be busy with theatre goers who will disappear when a show starts, and then you start getting the arrival of the evening diners - this is speculation though.We were warmly greeted, seated quickly and presented with menus and a drinks order taken. We asked a question re an item on the menu which they were happy to clarify. The waiting Staff, it has to be said, were exemplary all night attentive but not intrusive, sociable and warm.We had each had a starter and a main. My partner had soup which was excellent and I had scallops - again excellent; the size of the scallop portion would have benefited from being slightly larger.We both had steaks - my partner fillet and myself ribeye. My partners was excellent - a quality cut and cooked to perfection; tasted wonderful. My ribeye was not so good, a little stringy and a slightly strange taste but in fairness I didn't complain so it can't really be considered a criticism as I'm sure they would have responded well if I had (see drinks comments below).We had some bottled lagers during the meal and the first ones were a little warm; I mentioned this when we ordered the second drinks and the waitress brought us nice cold beers from then on. At the end of the evening these were deducted off of our bill even though I said it was a polite request and not a complaint, and said I didn't mind paying; this was a great gesture.Overall not a bad visit. The bill was around £53 for two starters, two steaks, garlic bread and a couple of drinks each.I think the most negative comment I would have to make is that the restaurant is listed as a Steakhouse. Unless I misread the menu they only do four steaks at 8oz each of different cuts; this is not really what I expected as I would normally have a larger weight.The environment is nice with a relaxed ambience, the service and staff brilliant, the food reasonably good, and value for money average (mainly based on serving size).Tip: Try and get street parking as the NCP car park in the same street is nearly £7 for two hours.

We booked a table for 8 on Saturday evening on the strength of the many positive reviews on trip advisor, but I am sad to say it was a huge disappointment. The good was adequate to be fair, but didn't equate to the glowing reviews. Their was no wine list, two reds in total on sale, honestly more of a glorified cafe than a sophisticated bistro as per reviews, sorry to say but be realistic when visiting this establishment.

We stayed in the Ramada in Leicester and noticed that the Curveside Bistro was just across the road and as it was recommended in tripadvisor we gave it a go. The steak was really tasty and you could tell they used the best meat. We had the sirloin and the rump. Both were good but the sirloin was excellent. The chips were good too. We would of gone back but we were only in Leicester for two days so wanted to try another restaurant. If we ever go back to Leicester we will definitely go back for more !!!!!

Our second visit for a pre-theatre meal and again was fantastic. 3 fillet steaks all cooked to our requests and a beautiful sea bass, oh and I nearly forgot the lovely homemade courgette and cheddar soup - which doesn't sound all that nice but was delicious! The staff are lovely which makes the whole meal even better. We've booked again for another pre-theatre meal!

Visited this lovely bistro on Thursday 4th April before going to curve to watch hairspray, we had the pre theatre meal the steak was delicious and cooked to perfection, the staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was great, we booked and it was a good job because this place was full and were having to turn people away. Great little family run bistro a must to complete a brill night .

Thanks for a lovely meal tonight. From the friendly smile when we came in and the very attentive service we received to the fantastic food all made for a lovely, relaxing meal out.

Excuse the innuendo laden headline but the rump WAS fab!!! We came here prior to the show at the Curve and were served efficiently and promptly. We both went for rump steaks as our mains and they both arrived cooked as per our request! Friendly staff and great cooking by a young talented chef!! Great location for the cultural quarter and a car park 50 yards away - ideal!!! Give it a try.....,

Pre theatre trip on Thursday , 27th March , we needed a quick decent meal ...and found this HIDDEN GEM!!! Superb Food! AMAZING price, 2 DELICIOUS courses for less than £20,00!! Homemade soup to DIE for!!! Along with the BEST fillet steak I've ever ate in Leicester!!!..and charming, welcoming staff to boot!! Honestly 11 out of ten!!! Brilliant!!! MUST MUST go...But I would advise pre booking as seriously , this little Bistro...is SERIOUSLY GOOD!!!...

Fab staff, good food at a great price. What more do you need from an eatery? Perfect! Can even organise a topless waiter..... will be back soon

To celebrate my daughters birthday we booked for 5.30pm prior to visiting the curve. The staff had decorated the table and allowed my daughter to choose the ambient music. The food was very tasty and the steaks as previously reported on TA were well cooked. The staff even played Happy Birthday and brought my daughter a chocolate muffin with a candle. A nice touch. Shall definitely revisit.

had my mum's 60th Birthday meal here...it couldn't have been more perfect..we were seated upstairs which was so personal and cosy..food was amazing..and the staff were on the ball the whole time...nothing was too much trouble. .my first time eating here but definitely wont be the last...thanks for everything curvside! !!!

We went her tonight. No theatre involved. The steak was the best I've ever had and I've had a few. So soft, tasty and amazing. You should try it.

We booked to dine at Curveside Bistro on the back of Trip Advisor reviews on a rare night out into Leicester city centre as a couple. Our 'date night' with kids staying at their grandparents! The service was welcoming and very warm throughout the evening. Spot on service. We opted for the 'Pre Theatre' 2 course special (we didn't divulge we had no theatre tickets lol) and both courses were delicious. My wife opted for the Pate and I the Prawn Cocktail. For mains were went for Rump & Fillet Steak with homemade chips, crunch veg and a peppercorn sauce. Fillet was just £2.95 extra and the sauce only £1.95. With drinks our bill totalled £45 which we both agreed was excellent value for money. Would we return? Most definitely. Booking I would imagine is vital as it's only a small establishment.

Fantastic food service all round well priced for a 3 course it was a lovely nite thank you to the lovely staff I will be back

This was my first visit with friends celebrating a birthday. The waitress greeted us immediately upon arrival and showed us to our table which they had kindly decorated with a balloon and a glitzy table decoration.All 5 of us opted for the Pre-Curve Theatre meal, 2 course for £14.95 and requested the fillet steak for an additional £2.95. Definately worth it, our steaks were amazing, was like cutting a knife through butter. Everything was cooked fresh from scratch, no frozen food here thats for sure. We then opted for dessert as felt like we would be missing out on more delicious food.I will definately be going back and I would also recommend this bistro for small parties as the upstairs is ideal and lovely furnished.Overall this bistro is a little gem, ideal location next to the curve, bars and NCP parking, I could not fault at all hence my 5 star rating. Thank you to the waitress and the chef......lovely people.

My girlfriend and I visited the Curveside Bistro before our visit to see Chicago at the Curveside early in January. Having previously had a booking cancelled in October due to the chef being ill - I was excited to taste the food based on reviews I had seen on TA.We were also offered a complimentary bottle of wine because of the cancelled booking so i decided to book in for the Pre theatre menu. The restaurant is very small - especially downstairs, but we thought this made for a very homely feel. We also loved the choice of music. As we both work in a similar city centre restaurant getting sick of hearing Florence and the Machine over and over - we were loving a bit of Jackson 5 and other classic anthems! The food we thought was amazing. My patê was lovely and my partner really enjoyed her mushroom starter. For our mains, we both ordered the Fillet Steak (how could we not!) With chips and salad. We were even asked if we wanted iceberg lettuce instead of rocket as we had rocket with our starter.The chef got our steaks perfectly cooked, and the red wine and bacon sauce was lovely. Desserts were also very nice. Overall we loved the attentive service, had best steaks we've had in a while and the lovely atmosphere.£45 for 2, three course meals was also good value for money.

Found this bistro on Google after being fed up of the only option to have a pre-theatre meal being the chain restaurants in the city centre or Chutney Ivy. Well, what a hidden gem! We booked a table (which I'd recommend as it is only small) the 2 course pre-theatre menu has the option of Starter & Main or Main & Pudding for £14.95. All four of us ordered the Fillet Steak (this has a £2.95 supplement), we all wanted it cooking slightly differently - this was done to perfection. The home-made chips were amazing and the veg was clearly well sourced and perfectly cooked as it tasted fresh and all was beautifully presented. We all had pudding, crumble, lemon meringue and I had chocolate melt in the middle sponge...this was to die for! Perfectly presented and baked - they could easily charge £7 for this yet it is on the menu at £3.25 (I think).This seems to be a very clever set up - its a breakfast/lunch bar by day and a steakhouse bistro by evening. The waitresses told us its a family business - then we caught sight of the chef, who looked very young! We've eaten in some very nice restaurants and this steak was one of the best we've had - the young chef has a natural talent! We will definitely be back for our next theatre trip.

We were going to a show at Curve tonight and needed a swift but enjoyable meal -we found it here. Friendly and quick service, presentation is simple but enticing and the food was very good and reasonably priced. Clean plates all round! Recommend the 'Mediterranean pasta'. We will be back.

Went for a Christmas party last night, the food was really nice and very good value for money, staff were very friendly, couldn't help us enough. We certainly be going back

Lovely, intimate restaurant. Friendly staff very organised & quick service. Food was excellent, cooked to perfection (best fillet steak I've had in Leicester!) Great value for money and highly recommended. Will def be visiting again :)

Nice atmosphere and nice friendly staff. Food very good - I'm vegetarian and the chef did a vegetarian pasta especially for me. I wanted ice cream, which wasn't on the menu, but the waitress fetched me one from 'Chutney Ivy' across the road! Good value & great service.

Visiting the Curve Theatre during the week and needing an early evening meal called in at Curveside Bistro and was met with a warm welcome. Had the pre-theatre menu and was not disappointed, the fresh food was excellent, good price and had plenty of time to spare. We would definitely return and would recommend others to visit, we will certainly be going back.

What a great place food was great and friendly staff too I have also stopped by in the day for a quick bite to eat.

When visiting this bistro we were warmly welcomed by the front of house and let the staff know that we were going to the curve afterwards, they were very attentive and made sure everything was ok - the service was fast and many if the waitresses were very happy to help I felt we were treated like old friends and would love to visit again! The food was very fresh and used good ingredients well done to the chef who was very experienced!

I attend the Curve a lot with various groups of friends and family, so finding somewhere I'd happily visit again so near to the theatre is a big plus. On this evening I was going to see a show with my mother and my 6 year old daughter. My daughter was very excited as it was her first ' grown up evening show', so I was a little anxious that she would behave in a restaurant. We were warmly welcomed and shown to a table upstairs. The staff were friendly, chatty, and very kind and patient with my over-excited daughter. They spoke to us as if we were old friends and couldn't have been more helpful. Our food was all very good, and they accommodated my daughter's pasta requirements to a 't', even double-checking that she liked mushrooms before adding any to her carbonara. After our meal, the chef came to speak to us and again, made us feel very welcome. I shall definitely be visiting again.

It's unusual for me not to rate a restaurant 4 or 5 stars on here and 3 almost seems too few. However considering it's currently the 21st best restaurant in Leicester according to Tripadvisor I give it 3 more out of disappointment than anything.I attended with family (seven in total) before going to the theatre. We had been recommended the steak so most of us ordered that from the pre-theatre menu, as well as one risotto and one sea bass. Oddly, when one of us tried to order the chicken we were told there would be a half hour wait. We decided that would be ok, as most of us were having starters anyway, but the waitress didn't seem to be able to grasp this, so in the end the chicken was left unordered.For starters I had spicy parsnip soup which was very good, my favourite part of the meal. Other starters included prawn cocktail and paté. Our mains took a fair while to come (much longer than half an hour!) even though the staff knew that we were going to the theatre afterwards. I can't talk for anybody else but my steak was...ok. Nice, but nothing special. The staff were very friendly, although I think they need to work out a better system than carrying one plate up the stairs at a time - more for their benefit rather than anyone else's! It's a very cosy little place, but does have some odd touches; rather than air conditioning you get a standard, ugly white £10 floor fan.Maybe this place is a wonderful bistro during the day and a good-ish restaurant at night, or maybe we just caught them on one of their less brilliant days. The pre-theatre menu consisted of starter and a main for £14.95. There was no option to swap a starter for a pudding, although the puddings were all very reasonably priced (between £3-£4 if I remember correctly).Considering the wealth of good restaurants in Leicester it might be a while before any of us return, which is a shame.

Ate here before a Theatre trip - hadn't booked but when we arrived we told the staff that we were attending The Curve for 7.30pm (it was about 20 to 7) - order taken quickly, starters nice - Prawn Cocktails (would have been nicer with a slice of bread and butter), but disappointed with the Main, steaks - the "fresh" veg was overcooked cauliflower, sweet corn and carrots, new potatoes were undercooked - this was ordered with sauces (1 x Peppercorn and 1 x Mushroom) which they had clearly forgotten to make - whilst I was a little disappointed, this was then turned into a something else, WHEN the Waitress (who needs to learn some customer service skills pronto) serving us came to the table and virtually told us it was our fault for not booking (as they had been very busy) and it was just a little mistake ! - Hmm, as my friend pointed out, we did tell you our schedule when we arrived and clearly ordered what we did - basically they forgot the sauces - whilst they deducted the cost of the sauces (after I had ventured inside to ask where they were and saw them making them with hot water...) - this was unacceptable - either tell us at the time of arrival you haven't got the capacity to serve us before Theatre or serve us what we ordered without interrupting our meal (as it was!) to basically tell us it was OUR fault and that you hadn't "done bad" to get our meals out at 7.15 with one "little mistake" - well I don't enjoy a steak without sauce or mustard and therefore it wasn't "little" to me or my friend! The fillet steak was very nice to be fair, but the attitude of the staff was not! £39 for two meals and two soft drinks for a price indicator and have had much nicer meals for this price.
