Fletchers review Underwhelmed based on the hype! My partner booked for us to visit Fletchers for a birthday surprise, it’s been on our list to visit for a while so we were excited to go. Sadly, we both left very underwhelmed. It started well when we opted for the Battered Anchovy snack before the starters arrived, that was absolutely delicious. We could have ordered another. Then it all went south. To start my partner had the pigeon wellington, her knife could barely cut through the pastry! I’m pretty sure pastry on a wellington should be light, crispy and flaky. This was nothing like that. I chose the trout and sadly, it was tasteless, which considering there was meant to be wasabi and other flavours added, it really missed the mark. Just ok, nothing exciting on the palette. Based on other Mitchellin restaurants I’ve been to, every bite should excite. For our mains we both had the market fish as everything else felt a little dated, pork belly, etc. The best part was the sauce, the fish was nice but mine was a little dry so I needed the sauce, the mash was actually delicious but the dish felt a little confused by adding a kohlrabi fondant which tasted of very little, was tough, and added nothing to the dish. Weird. We finished with the salted caramel tart which was sickly sweet and too rich. For a Mitchellin star restaurant the service was poor and inconsistent. We were seated and waited a fair while for menus to be provided, they didn’t offer to take our coats but did offer to take coats for the table next to us, and it took a long time between being provided the bill and paying, the service was slow despite being served by several different servers and the restaurant was half empty, they had plenty of staff, there was no atmosphere whatsoever, a main for someone else was placed in front of me and then when they realised it wasn’t for me they took it away and placed it on someone else’s table (I think that’s poor for any restaurant) and lastly, my partner was left disappointed that despite telling them ahead of our reservation that it was a birthday treat, they didn’t acknowledge my birthday. First time that’s ever happened in a restaurant on a birthday night out anywhere! I really don’t like leaving low rated reviews, but I have to be honest, for the price and overall experience compared to other restaurants, this really fell short of being an exceptional culinary experience - 4/10.

Perfect place to celebrate with my parents. I am a total fan of Fletchers where my husband and I dine regularly throughout the year. Today was a bit different as it was lunch with my parents. It was perfect from start to end - thank you Adam and Becky for front of house and all the kitchen team - we know you have all been stepping into different roles with the recent Fletcher Family Birth - and you did the team proud today 👍👍✌️

We had just been to see the Warhorse matinee at the theatre and booked here because it was 5 minute walk away. We were grateful it was so close as it was tipping down with rain. We booked for 5.45, but it opened at 5.30 so we went straight there and were seated straight away by friendly staff. We had requested a table in the main restaurant area, not the conservatory. We chose a 3 course a la carte meal, but we could have had a set meal with less choice which was a lot cheaper. All the food was delicious, we have eaten in quite a few fine dining restaurants and this was one of the best. All the food was delicious and the service was very good.

We booked for a taster menu for a special occasion. As we first walked in it wasn't clear where we were meant to go or who to see so we walked to the bar and finally got seated. It took around 25 mins to receive the canapé and bread. We then waited another 30 mins to receive the scollop which was a second starter. The entire meal took about 3 hours for 7 courses. For us personally 3 hours is a little too long but this may be standard for a 7 course meal. The gentleman who looked after us was friendly and polite, however everyone else seemed rushed off their feet and tired. The food was alright, we found that the sauces/jus for a few dishes were overpowering and it made other elements lost their potentials. Overall it was above average but there were no wow factors. We still had a good time but we wouldn't rush to go back.

Fletchers seemed like the perfect place to celebrate my daughter's graduation, we were not disappointed. From the moment we walked in we were welcomed and seated, of the two options we went for the a la carte over the tasting menu, both looked fantastic and not overwhelming. We were impressed by every plate that came out, immaculately presented and described. I started with the pigeon wellington, this was a triumph, I would certainly recommend! I followed with the venison to continue my game journey, perfectly following on and the recommended wine complimenting my food perfectly. I opted for the soufflé to end my meal, perfectly risen, bursting with raspberry with a beautiful pistachio ice-cream and creme anglase to accompany a perfect end to an amazing meal.

Enjoyable evening with some very good food, service was OK but after 2 courses only partly cleared the table. The only part of the food that didn't hit the mark was the apple trifle, which lacked apple flavour, unlike the apple petit fore.

As always, a fantastic meal here. I had the chicken bites for a starter/nibble, the duck for a main which was insanely good and the caramel tart which made me feel weak at the knees. The food is always so nice & served so exquisitely for such a good price. Unfortunately they were down 2 staff members so the team were rushed off their feet on one of the busiest Fridays they’d had yet, however they were very tentative and apologetic so I didn’t mind waiting a little longer for food & drinks to be served. Huge credit to the front of house staff.

The restaurant was busy but the tables were well spaced and comfortable. Excellent food, beautifully presented, a real treat. Our wine was good too. The atmosphere was warm though the venue is a bit lacking in personality. Service is very good, though some of the staff seemed a bit short of training; my post-meal cointreau was delivered in a tumbler with a billiard ball sized sphere of ice - awkward to drink and way too much (nor was I asked if I wanted ice). Overall, an excellent experience and good value. We will definitely go again.

Booked for an early evening dinner before visiting the Theatre. Fabulous from the moment we arrived. Smiling, knowledgeable staff. We decided to eat from the set menu, so only a couple of choices per course. We both chose the cauliflower soup to begin and it was absolutely gorgeous. So tasty, rich and creamy. Both main dishes were equally well presented and full of flavour. I can certainly recommend this restaurant and suggest you book as it is very popular.

We had the Taster menu. The food was very flavoursome. Interesting and different tasting sensations. The waiter rapidly reeled off long list of ingredients. The enjoyable evening was spoilt as we were advised twice we had to leave by 9:15. We booked a taxi. But by 9:00 we were still waiting for three courses. Told we could ignore departure time despite it being on website. Had to leave as taxi waiting! Unacceptable and unnecessary, when so much was great.

Fabulous food with, I dare to say, only one or two rival places to dine in Plymouth. there are two dining areas and every time I have eaten here I have a table in, as it were, the heart of the restaurant, which is my preference. I suspect that the chef sources as far as possible only local produce. On various visits I have enjoyed both the taster menu and the a la carte menu both are superb. On two visits now (May 24 and August 23) the service was a little slow and ponderous, which (only slightly) took the edge off the experience. If you are in or going to be in Plymouth or environs, do book and good

The best food we have eaten in ages. Fletchers restaurant in Plymouth. Recommended in the Michelin guide - in our view deserves at least one star on taste/ texture alone. Their lunch/early evening 2/3 course special deals are amazingly good value. Comfortable West Country service. Feels like home ❤️

Perfect food, wine and service. Went for lunch on Saturday and was easily able to chose from the set menu price options. The celeriac soup was incredible - fletchers consistently deliver the best soup we have ever had with real depth of flavour and soft texture. The pork belly was beautiful, and as usual we order a side of their incredible triple cooked chips which are exceptional and should be ordered every time you visit, what ever meal you are having!! We were able to have just enough space to share a desert which was sooo light it was the perfect end. Thank you fletchers team - always spot on - you remain our FAVOURITE restaurant in plymouth 😋

This restaurant was recommended to us, as one of the best eateries in Plymouth, and we were not disappointed. It may not have the Michelin style decor you would expect, but the food was extremely good, as was the wine choices. I also liked the fact that the tables were proportionately sized rather than tiny tables as can often be the case.

This restaurant will get a Michelin Star, of that, I'm sure. Let's begin. My wife and I travelled to this restaurant from Newbury, even though we hail from Plymouth, it was our wedding anniversary and we wanted to be original. On arrival, very polite staff who showed us to our table, we were shown menus straight away and asked if we would like a drink. Drinks arrived, duly drunk and ready to order. When the food arrived, oh my days, breath-taking, the attention to detail on the Pigeon Wellington and the flavour, wow. My wife had mackerel, she states it was beautiful, although she would have liked it cooked a smidge longer. Mains, fillet steak with an amazing "gravy" I could eat that again and again. The wife had fish again, Brill, and in her words " I'd have that again, so tasty and full of flavour" Now for the best bit, the dessert. Please order the souffle, it will knock your socks off, but there is a wait, but the wait is worthwhile, trust me. A glass of Malbec was served at the perfect temperature. Nothing at all to fault with the food. Note from us though, paper napkins and no table cloth let it down a bit, but not enough to warrant less than 5 stars. Thank you to all the staff for making our anniversary meal memorable.

The food was amazing, the staff were very polite and discreet but almost to the point of looking unhappy the restaurant lacked atmosphere, but our seating location may have added to our negative experience. The table and view were disappointing. It was our first visit and we were sat at the entrance of the building which is an add on, almost like sitting in a conservatory at home. The view was of dirty old buildings. May have felt more luxurious if we had been seated in the main restaurant. The ladies toilets need consideration. The toilet seat was a cheap nasty plastic one and was broken. Hand towels which are cloth were supposed to be white but were grey and looked dirty. Toilet floor especially around the doors looked like they need a steam clean and a scrub. A few minor adjustments and this would be a restaurant as a local I would return to, but in the basis I was seated inside the original building.

We had a 3 course meal. Each course was made to perfection. To start we had the pigeon wellington and mackerel. Absolutely stunning, we both had the Westcountry lamb. Again beautifully made and finished off with the lemon tartlet and white chocolate tart. The prices were very fair and reasonable, the service was outstanding, times between courses were fantastic.the actual restaurant was open yet cosy and well decorated. The chefs must work incredibly hard to create such wonderful food, the sauces and combinations are second to none. Our waitress Jess was lovely and friendly and very helpful in helping us navigating the menu. Would highly recommend.

Warning!! If you are garlic or fish intolerant then this is not for you. After phoning the restaurant twice to confirm my allergies I was told it would be fine for me to dine there. On arrival we was met by very friendly staff and taken to our table. However, after ordering drinks I had the menu given to me to be told of everything I couldn’t have which left me with one option: the steak. Now the steak was lovely but again when asked if I could have the chips with this I was told no they are coated in garlic and had the option of mashed potato. Now I would like to point out that I have dined at many Michelin restaurants, even at Michael Cains and didn’t think for a chef of this standard that he couldn’t be more accommodating, especially in this day and age of people having many food allergies. This said my family enjoyed their meal as thankfully this was a birthday meal and had travelled over an hour to dine. Personally, I won’t be attending again and will go to other restaurants where the chef can go off grid for people like myself when it is not easy to dine out.

Restaurant was busy which is always a good sign! The staff were efficient and friendly & service was very good. Appropriate timings were left between courses & presentation was excellent. The Beef was quite underwhelming for £38 - I was asked how I would like it cooked & this was not reflected once served. Another member of our party also requested that their Beef was cooked in a way that suited their taste to which they didn’t get either. ( Don’t offer to do this - if it cannot be actioned ) didn’t make a fuss as we were entertaining guests. Left feeling a little underwhelmed this time - but the service and ambience did make up for the main course.

After the usual online search for places to eat, we found Fletchers and was impressed by the reviews and social media publicity. The food was on point and it matched everything we expected. Maybe food portions could be a little more. We chose from the 530 to 600pm meal deal for approx 25 each. The ambience and cleanliness was fine. Nothing to gripe about. Service was attentive but overheard other tables waitress having to apologise and ask for information again, so maybe just new or a confidence thing. Again not a disaster for anyone. The biggest and most concerning complaint from us was upon arrival we were made to wait outside in the rain and cold until they opened at 530pm. The issue was our table was booked for a strict 530 to 7pm window, so you would expect to be arriving a few mins early to have a drink in the bar and then be seated. What you should be doing is making your table times 10 or 15 mins later than your opening times to allow for this. There was another lady who arrived 15 mins early to meet friends who was elderly and cold. By allowing customers to arrive and relax into their evening would allow you to sell more drinks before they are seated and more importantly make the experience more enjoyable for the customer. Lots of positives but some tweaks needed.

pleasant location and nice food, very expensive when considering service and choice, waitress didnt know her own food leading to a mixup in the order meaning we had to wait with food cooling on the table whilst another meal was cooked unnecessarily as the meal had simply been served to the wrong person and then sent back we had to pre order due to group size(8) and had to chase the restaurant in order to get the menu and then chase them again to let them know our pre order then there was a not very subtle attempt to overcharge which when challenged was immediately dropped without reference to the orders or records which frankly just seemed all the more suspicious

Nous avons dîné dans ce restaurant et tout s'est très bien passé. Le service est aux petits soins et la carte de boissons et de plats proposée est variée. Les plats sont très bons avec des plats locaux proposés

Well, what a gem! Plymouth central. We had heard it was good, but were in for a treat. The pigeon was magnificent. Wrapped in filo and spinach with a beautiful sauce- highly recommend it. The main, venison, was even better - you should definitely try this one - cooked to perfection with sublime accompaniments. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Looking forward to a return visit.

Fletchers Restaurant embodies the ideal dining experience – exceptional fine dining, a welcoming team of knowledgeable and friendly staff, and owners committed to engaging personally with customers. Owner Jess in particular is always a joy to speak with! It's reminiscent of a visit with family, where you feel genuinely welcomed and special. The memorable service, coupled with incredible food, leads me to wholeheartedly recommend Fletchers! With thanks, Andrew MacDonald

Absolutely go here! The food is incredible, well on par with many Michelin star restaurants I've been to and they surprised us with a birthday dessert. Service and food was sublime. Was worried the plates would be too small as it's fine dining but they're very filling and we came away super happy ☺️ Thank you!

By far the best tasting food in Plymouth. Expect to pay more than your usual meal out but it is worth every penny and is even better than you'd expect. Every dish is perfectly balanced with a fantastic variety of flavours and textures, I have never eaten a single mouthful and not immediately moaned in joy. We come every year for our anniversary but if I ever won the lottery then I'd eat here every day. Wish me luck on my numbers!

Had the 3 course set menu which was superb. Wonderful value for money- every course was subtle and delicious. Excellent, efficient and personable service. Can 100% recommend, perfect for pre-theatre.

We had heard a lot of good recommendations for this restaurant, so decided to give it a try. We were not disappointed. As we went for lunch, we had the option of a three course set menu for £30 (bargain) or the choice of the a la carte menu. I went for the a la carte and opted for the quail breast starter, and the saddle of venison for mains. I have to say the venison dish served with blue cheese, beetroot, blackberry jus and colcannon mash was out of this world, and possibly one of the best plates of food I have ever eaten. My partner selected form the set menu, and likewise was not disappointed. For dessert, we were both blown away by the sticky toffee pudding with caramelised banana and honeycomb ( you could taste the honey added to the honeycomb). I have to also add, that the wine menu was superb, and to be fair reasonably priced. The one slight niggle with the whole experience...the decor of the restaurant was somewhat dated and could do with a bit of a revamp. This however did not detract from our fantastic food, and based on the food alone I had to give Fletchers five stars. Will we go again...of course, I can't wait!

Honky TONK used to be our favourite place, the sharing platter and chilled no rush atmosphere sold it to us year after year. Not so now. The sharing platter is gone, replaced by small dishes that are in my opinion over priced. Food quality is still top notch. The left hand side of the rooms was set aside for a private function wine taste competition which was unbearlingly loud. We found we we shouting to each other to be heard. Sorry to say Honky TONK have lost their way.

I guess we must have gone on a bad day but honestly, very underwhelmed! Nearly £30 for two drinks and two bagels you think ok, this is gonna be out of this world, but we were left feeling short changed. We ordered the salted beef bagel which needed more salt and I’ve had a lot tastier sauerkraut, it was large so portion size was good but it just tasted very average, we also had the halloumi one but they forgot to add the chilli jam which is one of the main ingredients so no idea how they missed that, we bought them to go and only noticed when we got home! The coffee was ok but the chai latte was luke warm at best! All in all, for the price, and the reputation, we were left disappointed.
