Having never visited before, me and some friends decided to try out the new "Alfresco Friday". Our waiter Dan was an absolute delight and made us all feel extremely well looked after throughout the evening. We sat outdoors with the accompaniment of a live singer which just topped off the whole experience! The food was well presented, exceptionally seasoned and surprisingly well priced in comparison to other steakhouses in the area. Will definitely be visiting again and we are exited to try their pizza nights/Sunday roasts!Thank you for having us

Myself and husband went to 16 Steak House at Greshams for his birthday. Sadly we couldn’t go before due to lockdown. The service and outdoor setting were lovely and the starters really tasty, we were both really looking forward to our steaks which we ordered rare. Unfortunately when they arrived they were medium/well. They replaced both but mine came back the same and my husband’s medium. Mine I didn’t eat and they took off the bill and Neil ate his due to being hungry. Sadly for a steak restaurant the mains were disappointing so I doubt we will be going back.

My friend chose this restaurant for her birthday, I wasn’t even aware there was a restaurant but was very pleasantly surprised. There was six of us and we had a round table which meant everyone could interact without talking over each other. Our waiter was very good, he was very tentative and happy to help with all our different demands (vegan, gluten and dairy free) we don’t do it often but we were impressed by his demure that we left a tip. The food was delicious and well presented and the options were enough for everyone to enjoy. It was all in all a good dining experience. I didn’t give it five stars as found the outside wasn’t as welcoming as I expected and we weren’t sure if we were at the right restaurant.

Just back from a beautiful Sunday Lunch in the Greshams Restaurant. A great choice on the menu, but we all fancied a Sunday Roast. At £13.95 I thought it might prove to be a bit on the small side so also had a starter, bit of a schoolboy error. The plate was full with excellent quality meat and vegetables.Lovely gravy, well cooked meat and crispy veg. Incredible value.Cant wait to go back to try the steak selection.Great service too.. Highly recommend.

Birthday Steaks all round! Treat for Dad’s birthday - 2x rib eyes, 1x sirloin, 1x minute steak, 1x pork loin all got the big thumbs up. Really like being able to make own salad and cheese board selection. Perhaps the kids pasta sauce is bit too intensely tomatoey - but that’s down to personal taste. A warm welcome, great service and loved the birthday candle in the cheese! We shall be back.

Went to the Greshams Christmas Party night. Overall it was very good and entertaining, the only slight grumble was the meal. The soup was so sparse I had to eat it quickly before what there was of it evaporated! The main course was okay with plenty of meat, but that was offet by the almost total lack of vegtables, The dessert was okay. Overall the night was very good, but the food, the meat and dessert aside could have been better. Think the Christmas party nights, although good overall, need the food to slightly improve to rival All Manor of Events or Trinity Park.

We had a mid-week meal at the newly opened 16 restaurant at Gresham's. We were looked after by Kevin who was superb at answering our questions and explaining the menu. We ended up going with t-bone and fillet steak both of which came out cooked to perfection with a side of sweet potato fries and some amazing dauphinois potatoes. If there was a niggle to be had it would be that the food of the al la carte menu is on the pricey side. All round I would certainly recommend the new restaurant and will be back to sample the carvery!

I purchased a Groupon for afternoon tea for my parents as an Easter gift. I was told that it was fully booked on my requested date, then received a call to say that they’d had a last minute cancellation. If they were fully booked I would be concerned as there were 3 other tables plus ourselves?!?! Hardly busy. Lovely venue. Lovely chap who served us. Deliciously fresh finger sandwiches, it’s unfortunate that you cannot choose between white and/or brown bread as my parents don’t eat brown. Nice warm sausage rolls. Crumbly scones. Disappointed with what appeared to be shop brought cakes and not home made.... all in all ok value for money using a Groupon but when all is said and done it’s sandwiches, scones, tea and cake! I much prefer Glasswells, all home made with a choice rather than a standard get what you are given. Unlimited tea/coffee was a nice touch.

As we were setting up the others didn't like that sprinkles had been put on the tables. Instead of speaking to Us nicely about it, they just came off rude. Having little digs regarding cleaning them up. And the blonde girls just made us all uncomfortable with the way she spoke to older members regarding cups, again, rudely.

The website for Greshams is very professional and slick, but you won't find a picture of the outside. That's because it isn't the best looking building - you might mistake it for a social club. Now don't misunderstand me - I'm not saying this is a bad thing; just not what you might expect. Inside it does resemble a very nice village hall; clean neat surroundings with really comfy seats. The menu is not extensive; yet again not a bad thing. We decided on the carvery with a choice of gammon, turkey, or meat pie (or a bit of each if you like!) The choice of veg and potatoes is excellent. The Yorkshire pudding was a little chewy and the gravy a little runny but I want to stress I liked this place loads despite my minor quibbles. Everyone in our little party enjoyed their meals - portions are just right. Service was excellent - especially the tip off that we needed to "go to the carvery right now" before a party of 24 were about to (a great bit of advice!). It can be a little noisy in this big space as there are no partitions that you might find in a pub. The value is excellent for the main course - £10.95 for a 'regular' carvery. As in most places the desserts are not good value, but you'll probably be full anyway. We were told that in the next few weeks it was going to get 'posh' with new menus; I suspect that this will be a success.

Booked this with a Groupon voucher so really very reasonable price. Staff were very nice and friendly. All arrived very quickly and looked fab. Think we were supposed to have a sandwich with smoked salmon but definitely no smoked salmon on the stand. Tinned salmon maybe and the ham sandwich was not great. Sandwiches had been made a while ago as bread was drying. Cakes and scones were nice, sausage roll was fab. I was quite happy having got it at the price I did but wouldn't have been quite so happy if I had to pay full price. Very nice restaurant, views OK but of football pitches. Staff were great though.

Then we went and meet Santa and there elf outside talking to parents about all stuff do ready for Xmas eve to help them out . So they children was so exited looking around . Making sure they know what they had to do . Then we saw Santa well he was so lovely knew my daughters name before I got into room . We walked in and it was slightly colder so my daughter thought we was in North Pole bless her .And he also knew a few little facts about Lillie which made magical for her . (These was sorted out with parents before hand ) . Also got such a lovely little gift a lovely reading book and teddy that was lovely to see . Santa gave us the choice to take loads of pictures didn’t rush us or anything . Then we went outside back into the main hall the elf’s and Mrs Claus danced with kids took photos played game !

Myself and two friends had afternoon tea today Friday 7th Dec. Very disappointed with the sandwiches which were very bland. One of my friends doesn't eat meat and what they did for her was very poor. They could have given her a cheese and onion roll or a cheese scone in place of the sausage roll we were given. The sandwiches in general were very poor. Plain ham, no pickle or mustard and just cucumber!! Nothing with the tuna, cucumber or tomato would have been better or some tinned salmon and just egg sandwiches, no mayo or tomato. The cakes were nice but really you need to do better with the sandwiches for the price you charge. Jean

Friendly meal for us and friends, good welcome, nicely placed table (we had asked for one slightly secluded) quick drinks service, but allowed time for our choice(we are always slow) starters came quickly and were really nice. Mains also, all the food was hot, well presented and tasty. Two of us had the pie, which was brilliant, home made, full of meat and tasty to boot. One person had the Lasagna, which they found very nice, (albeit too much for then to finish). One of our number a vegetarian, found her choice of meal unavailable, and asked if they would prepare a dish for her 'off menu', which they did without hesitation. Service was excellent, fun, friendly, at just the right level for us. Sweets were delicious. The restaurant was not crowded, midweek, and the weather was atrocious. We all really enjoyed the meal, and will undoubtedly return. Special mention for Scotty, one of our waiters.Great night.

Met friends today, due to wheelchair access they chose Gresham's. We waited nearly an hour for our food, it arrived via a waitress who pretty much tipped the plates on to the table. Fish and chips shockingly over-cooked, lasagne lumps of meat and pie pastry obviously microwaved. I suspect the large party in the Ven-Yew took priority and our meals had been put on hold. The catering manager Chris was rude and as good as said because the food had been partially eaten we were lying. Really shocked - won't be returning.

Our previous visit for a Sunday carvery was very good, an excellent meal. Which is why we returned. I don’t know what has happened since ! To start with my partners beer was ‘off’ and he had to ask for a replacement. I had the beef, which was over cooked and tasteless. I had the small plate but couldn’t eat the meat. The Yorkshire was like leather, the roast potatoes not at all crispy and were so hard I couldn’t cut mine. The sausage was undercooked, the stuffing tasteless, the veg undercooked! The new potatoes had so many herbs on I couldn’t eat them, and they are so inappropriate with the traditional roast. In fact the rest of the meal had no flavour, cardboard meat and no taste gravy. All for £10.95 ! The venue is lovely, but the food so very disappointing. All served in a rather surly manner by the carvery chef.

Food is excellent portions are huge but they do offer smaller portions of you ask. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We will be going again as the Sunday roast sounds awesome. We are booking for a lunch party of approx 25 people at the end of the month, we are really looking forward to going again. Thanks to all the staff.

Greshams has a good setting, but didn’t provide a ‘dainty’ afternoon tea, for my granddaughters hen party. Two of our party of twelve were gluten free, but despite this being made clear at the time of booking.. ,Five gluten free teas were brought out.

We took our friends to lunch for the first time at Greshams and were thoroughly delighted with the experience. The food was superb and plentiful; the staff so friendly and attentive without being intrusive; the atmosphere was refined yet comfortable and the surroundings were delightful. The final plus point was ample car parking on-site. A lovely experience

I booked Greshams late 2017 for my 40th Birthday celebrations in February. I was informed of the refurbishment that was happening and that it would be finished the day before my party which didn’t worry me.

Attendeed a function in their newly refurbished room on Saturday evening. The food was good but they need to have more than 5 waiters/waitresses serving 20 tables of 10. Service is slow.

Lunch with friends yesterday. Service bad waited over 50 mins for food when it came 😩 chicken was so dry and tough we struggled to cut it. No place mats so plates kept sliding on table as we tried to cut. Small portion of vegetables...

We were a 30th birthday party meal who dined here, our party ranged from 1 year to 70. We found the service was very good, Chris and his team handled our booking well. the food was good, steaks all went down very well. They had organised a 3 course set menu for us which we ordered beforehand and we had no issues with the orders. Restaurant was clean and modern, atmosphere was good. We will definitely now try their sunday roast.Thanks to everyone involved.

I'm not sure what I was expecting but it wasn't it! I visited with my fiancé and son, for afternoon tea via a Groupon deal, the front of the building looked like a shed but we were pleasantly surprised by the inside.The afternoon tea was disappointing, as a chef of 10 years I know brought in when I see it and the cakes where cut straight out of a pilgrims food service catalog, the scones I think where made in house but had been frozen and defrosted as they were hard. Ya can't mess up a sandwich but there were basic to say the least. It would have been a much lower rating if it wasn't for the lovely staff and pleasant surroundings. Enquired about hiring a marquee as we are planning a wedding but aren't interested in using there caterers and they don't allow outside catering so that's out.

I was so impressed with the buffet selection provided for my relatives funeral buffet. Everyone commented on the choice, quality, flavours and the general atmosphere of the venue. Highly recommended.

A very good selection of food from their menu and a Sunday carvery as well makes this a good place to visit for any occasion. Polite and very efficient staff. Good selection of beers and wines. I would certainly recommend a visit, particularly if there is an entertainment function on at the same time which makes it all the more enjoyable.

Hired the hall out for my aunties wedding reception on the 26th August. Everything was Absolutely wonderful, the hall is big enough to fit a good amount of people in as our family is a pretty big family to say the least & friends too! But from start to finish was amazing. The food was so good me & my parter had Soup for starter, beef for main & Eton mess for desert think we were all very full afterwards & then few hours later a buffet which was also very lovely food. Was an absolutely amazing day just want to say a big big thank you to all of the staff at greshams that bought the food out & helped out with our big day, they were all very polite and attentive.Thank you once again Greshams team!

Really good food and well priced, just sad that the lady “Jo” was quite abrupt on our arrival after being shown to our seats by the other waitress who was very pleasant. She asked if we had a reservat
