Ice & Slice At The Kiln in Mendip - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Last minute decision for a Thursday night tea. It was amazing we really enjoyed everything. We did a tapas and everything was so tasty. Cocktails lovely too. Defo be back soon for a bottomless but try a thirsty Thursday too you won’t be disappointed 👌

Went for lunch for my partners birthday, and we were provided with a fantastic service from Tom. He went out of the way to make a sex on the beach cocktail for myself that was not even on the drinks menu, and I can honestly say it was two of the best I have ever had. Great food also. We particularly enjoyed the Mac n cheese and the pork belly bites. Thank you so much for a great lunch we’ll definitely be back. Thank you Tom and the team.

Great service from Bekah good cocktails food good. Nice atmosphere, clean, relaxing and good chill out place, would come again

Really nice restaurant, great food and great cocktails Meg who served us was very friendly and made us feel very welcome Thank you!

Bekah was our waitress and was excellent in making sure we always had a drink. The food was lovely and service was just as good. Bekah was definitely the best waitress I’ve ever had for a bottomless.

Absolutely overpriced Food and lack of food on the plate for a Starter? I was biting my tongue after being Charged £130 for 4 not so nice pizzas and 3 drinks and 2 starters that was hardly anything on the plate £8.50 a starter was absolutely not worth it. £16.50 a pizza better off going to a local fast food they are much better quality. Dissatisfied with paying Michelin Star prices for such little Quality food. Never again and Also there is very limited Choice on the Menus regarding Food ? Just my Opinion So I’m sorry if it offends

Whenever I go to a restaurant I always look up beforehand to see if I can eat there as I’m gluten free so this review is purely just for information for anyone else doing that. The service at ice and slice was very friendly, the atmosphere is great, the cocktails are very nice and the food does look good so not a reflection on that at all. The manager was also really apologetic to our situation and there are no issues there with the service at all it was just an unfortunate situation, we were grateful to the manager for their compensation of our drinks in recognition that we had to move restaurant to dine elsewhere. There are other reviews stating gluten free is well catered here, and if you are a non coeliac who needs gluten free that is true there are lots of options including gluten free pizza which is great. I thought I had done my research before and figured I would be fine. I had planned on avoiding pizza and just having something from main menu However, anyone who is Coeliac there is nothing you can eat here as everything on the menu is prepared in the woodfired oven (not just the pizzas) and cross contamination just cannot be avoided despite the staffs best efforts. There is no other method of cooking and the other small oven in the back is used for gluten containing ingredients. The team will do their best to try to prepare things in a way which reduces risk however ultimately the way that the food is prepared, dining as a coeliac here just isn’t feasible and nothing on the menu, even if naturally gluten free, can be considered safe. My genuine suggestions to help the restaurant if they really want to get it right for the gf community but continue to make the fab offering they already do without changing things massively: 1. Please remove the wording ‘gluten FREE’ from their menus and make it clear that they offer ‘non gluten containing ingredients’ or ‘gluten friendly’ options 2. Please put a visible disclaimer about the kitchen situation on both the website and the menus and a line that whilst you can cater gluten free you unfortunately cannot guarantee the food is safe for those with coeliac disease. 3. if you *do* want to be able to help coeliac diners consider having some schar gf pizza bases kept in the back and keep the small oven only used for naturally gluten free ingredients so in future, anyone who isn’t prepared to risk the woodfired oven has at least an option to eat *something* with you. An example of somewhere that does things really well is the chain of pubs that have the bulls head, the swan and the joiners arms who also have a woodfired oven. They state very clearly (and correctly) they cannot do gf pizzas in the oven at all and explain why. I would direct the manager of ice and slice to take a look at their website and their allergen information section. No kitchen, unless fully gluten free can guarantee no risk and those with coeliac disease understand that and choose the level of risk they are comfortable with, not even places like Prezzo who are coeliac uk accredited can fully guarantee no risk. What we do need is just need transparency and for places that claim they cater gluten free to FULLY understand the nuances of making that claim and going beyond just ‘it’s got no gluten ingredients in it so we can put gf on our menu’. It’s so disheartening to be excited that a restaurant can cater because ‘gf’ is written all over the place to then find out that they actually can’t really. I guess it’s no different to claiming a dish is vegetarian but frying it in the same pan as some meat (not suggesting ice and slice do this, just an analogy) Re-iterating again just to finish that aside from the gf stuff… the restaurant itself and the staff - absolutely spot on vibes and service.

Great food and place to go - unexpected in Swadlincote! Beth and Tom were great, perfect date night :) Fully recommend and will definitely come again

The restaurant really is a lovely plz d to eat … great atmosphere and a beautiful building. There is a wide selection of food on the menu and the cocktails are amazing too!

Absolutely beautiful food. Beth, our waitress, was amazing. Drinks were flowing. Will defo visit again thank you x Xxx

We ate at ice and slice for the first time tonight, we were blown away everything was fantastic, top notch food - first class service what a find, we will definitely be back.

Delicious food and great service! Our waiter Tom was very attentive, professional and friendly. We had a lovely family evening.

This is a little diamond in Swadlincote for drinks or food. The food is the best in the area, like being in a city restaurant but in a small town. I've eaten here many times and it's as good as many places I've been in London where I live. Very reasonably priced too. The staff are fantastic....shout out to Stephan, Meg and Lucas. Solo, a as a couple or in a group you'll be really looked after

Great service, great food. Would deffo come again and recommend to anyone. Get trying this place. Lovely atmosphere..

Went with the family for pizza, great food and great service. It was 2 for 1 on a Thursday so great value. Thanks Ice & Slice 👍🏻

Wow ! 😍 been looking at trying this place for so long, tonight certainly did not disappoint- it was amazing! great service, beautiful place and the food was unbelievable ❤️ Every course was beautiful but the Chicken taco was incredible, the venison dish flavours all amazing and dessert was another level. Cannot wait to return

Amazing food, the only thing that let it down was the roasted pineapple dessert. The young person lucus doing the service was amazing.

Food and service were both excellent, caters for all ages and it’s somewhere a little different to a standard pub, would recommend for casual meals or for a celebration.

First time to ice and a slice. The ambiance was lovely when we walked in. I tried a cocktail (margarita) however it was missing the salted glass rim, but tasted amazing. We were shown to our table upstairs and we placed our order. There were lots of attentive staff and the food came quickly. We ordered a bottle of wine which was presented well and was put in an iced bucket at the side of the table. We had a very enjoyable evening. We are vegetarian so choice was limited. We ordered one last drink once we had finished our meal only to be told we had 10 minutes left on our table!!! What?? We wouldn’t have ordered another drink if we had known we were on a time limit?? This comment ruined the evening for us and we felt it was quite unnecessary? We also got invited the following Saturday evening with friends. It was difficult to order something other than we had the week before. The cheesy garlic bread starter previously was a pizza base, however this time was slices of bread with a little bit of cheese. Disappointing. My husband ordered the miso cod, but when it came it looked like sea bass with skin and the whole plate was cold. He didn’t complain as we were with friends and he didn’t want to make a scene. I ordered a pizza but asked if I could have half and half (vege options) when that came I had 3 quarters of the mushroom and a quarter of goats cheese. Even the waitress commented on the toppings. Very disappointed with the food. Service was good but we won’t be coming back in a hurry. We thought it was very expensive for pizzas and beer.

Ice & Slice at The Kiln Swadlincote Fabulous brunch. Thoroughly recomend 936715437 Leoni our waitress was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. We had booked the bottomless lunch and nothing was too much trouble. Food was lovely, very relaxed atmosphere and she kept our glasses topped up. Highly recommended and we hope you get Leoni as your waitress

We came to Ice and Slice for Sunday Lunch. First impressions are good. The exterior of the building is really nice. The interior lives up to the first impression of the outside, so far all good. We were shown to our table on the 1st...

Really lovely Sunday lunch at Ice and slice. Great food and great service from Tom - nothing was too much trouble. Thank you

Great pizzas, and excellent selection of wines and cocktails. Our waitress Leonie did a great job of looking after us, and we had a really enjoyable dinner at Ice and Slice

Wow, fantastic attentive service and amazing food and drinks. Really tasty pizza. Definitely a restaurant to return to.

Amazing food, amazing service, awesome cocktails! We love it here, will return again and again! One of our favourite places to eat and drink! We love it here!

Great service, the waitress was brilliant and all our order came quickly and on time. The food was out of this world, cooked to perfection and presented well. We will definitely be coming back very soon.

Overpriced for Sunday lunch with thinly sliced catering beef. Drinks expensive for a run of the mill establishment. Staff inattentive and seemed bewildered at times. Dessert asked for was changed without being informed, but when questioned the manager was more than apologetic and refunded the...

Amazing food, clearly high quality produce. Came all the way from Buckinghamshire for a business meeting, and was introduced too this place by a business associate (Tom) definitely recommend and will be back again.

Had seen all the good reviews online and decided to go for Sunday lunch. Staff were ok but not very friendly only one who had a grey waistcoat on. I would say this was the worst Sunday lunch we had all ever had. The gravy...

We booked for 19:30 and to be fair over all the service was good. Tom was brilliant, very attentive and apologetic when the first drink I ordered wasn’t available. There was a long wait once we first arrived to having our drinks, around 30 minutes....

Lovely place good food. Tom and the rest of the staff were very polite and attentive, would highly recommend.

Estere was an amazing host, we came for bottomless and she always made sure our glasses were refilled. The food was amazing as usual 👌🏼

Pricy but worth it. It’s a beautiful old building that has been brought back to life with a nice restaurant in the centre of Swad.

Lovely place, location was great and the food and drinks were amazing, we really enjoyed the food! However, it was an uncomfortable dining experience due to managements treatment of younger staff. It was clear these staff were working hard on a December evening doing their...

Amazing food and amazing service! The honey BBQ pigs in blankets are to die for! We were on holiday visiting and fancied a nice lunch, ice and slice was perfect.

Visited last night, pre booked. Went upstairs, greeted by Denni. After some time Tom came and took our drink+ food order. 2 x pints + £50 sharer board, food arrived, but was a little disappointed, lots of meat items were only just warm, wouldn't say...

Where do I start, from when we got there we were met by a member of staff called Denni, she was lovely. Showed us to our table and asked if we wanted any drinks. They gave us our drinks and asked if we were ready...

Awful Service !!! Bad manners from staff, non friendly environment. Was served under cooked chicken which bled into my mouth and made me physically sick. The manager then refused to take it off the bill as he argued with me that it wasn’t undercooked -...

Lovely atmosphere, nice place to return for socials with friends. Food was next level, had the mushroom carbonara with chicken, and partner had turkey ballotine (10/10!!). Great staff, we were assisted by Tom who was very polite and professional. Great experience! Will be back soon!

Lovely and relaxing afternoon bottomless lunch with friends. Our server Denni was great and a good time was had by all. Will definitely visit again as didn’t disappoint.

Bottomless coffee and croissant for £6.95 was lovely. Would like more choice of pastries please, eg Danish or pains or chocolat.

Found this on Facebook with excellent reviews in comments. I went with my wife for my 40th Birthday meal. We chose the 16 hour slow cooked Beef ribs, which were cooked to perfection. The portion size was a little small but the taste was amazing...

Lucas was attentive, engaging and had a great sense of humour! Mushroom carbonara was generous and delicious. Goats cheese pizza was tasty, rich and well cooked. Cod dish was very flavoursome and well cooked but a bit on the small side - extra veg would...

Great place to have in the local area and good food. Leoni was a lovely waitress. The drinks are reasonably priced and the food was pleasant. Portion sizes were generous and had some nice flavours.

Great spot for lunch in Swadlincote. Really good quality food and atmosphere. It’s a standout in the local area. I come every time I visit the UK. Milan was my waitress and the service was great.

Lovely staff, very attentive staffa and always ready to top up your glass. The food was very good the cauliflower bang bang was to die for! If you've not tried it. I recommend you do!

So, had a very bizarre experience here last Friday at 9.45pm. We had been out for dinner and decided to call for a drink before heading home, as the night was young-or so WE thought. As we walked in, there were many staff in various...

A lovely Sunday lunch for my friends birthday. We were given a free drink on arrival and a birthday celebration dessert with sparklers. What a lovely idea. Thank you. All servers were polite and friendly. Thank you to Leoni, Lucas and Denni. We will definately...

Gorgeous setting, really lovely vibe with the music and atmosphere. The cocktails were quite special with lots of twists and fun and the food was outstanding value for money. Fine dining which was served in a friendly and relaxed restaurant. Massive thanks to our server...

Outstanding cocktails, had the beef rib for dinner, gorgeous food. Our server Milan was great, never missed a beat, definitely recommend and we will be back.

Visited Ice of Slice tonight and was very impressed. The atmosphere was welcoming, friendly, and inviting, there was a calm essence and relaxing vibe. The restaurant was immaculately clean. Denni served us and was very approachable and chatty, there was an attentive feel, and we...

Food was really nice and got to love a cocktail that makes you feel like a wizard. Denni was an absolute legend and couldn't have done more for us.

Myself and hubby had a lovely meal tonight. From starters to pudding. Cocktails to die for. (I love a good cocktail) served my a very friendly and helpful young lady called Demi. She was lovely and bubbly and helped with menu choices. The food she...

Fabulous atmosphere and very attentive host. Denni looked after us very well with her team and paired us with cocktail she thinks would suit us and she was bang on!

Went for Sunday lunch after seeing it advertised thinking it would be lovely to try. Got sat down at our table, menus came across, then it took a good twenty minutes for anyone to come over to take a drinks order. Then it took 10...

I would fully recommend the Bottomless brunch, the food and drinks were delicious, and the drinks just kept on coming. Our Waitress Derry was fantastic. Will definitely be back ⭐️

Disappointing. We had a rushed experience. After sitting down and having our order taken, we had drinks and our dinner delivered at the same time. Then, 40mins later, we were asked to sit downstairs if we wanted another drink because they wanted the table. This...

Best lunch in the area. All three courses of the bottomless lunch we had were good, and the service attentive, they don’t leave you waiting ages for a refill. Highly recommended

Beef was very fatty I told the waitress and she said oh I will let them know vegetables etc very nice but beef poor

Finally dined at Ice & a slice for Sunday lunch & can fully see why their Trip Advisor ratings are so good 😊 Really delicious roast chicken & roast beef lunch with generous vegetables, roast potatoes & so tasty rich gravy, absolutely lovely Loved the...

Really enjoyed our evening. Our food was good, nice atmosphere and excellent service from Leoni. Will definitely come again.

Where in the area as visiting family but also needed to find somewhere to go as my partners Birthday. Looking in the local area of Swadlincote there was much to be desired for nice restaurants or fine dining however this place looked the best out...

Superb little venue. The best spot in Swadlincote. Fabulous service, wonderful atmosphere and incredible food. Excellent value and well worth a visit. Beautiful building as well elegantly repurposed.
