The Atrium Bistro Bar in South Gloucestershire

Beautiful little area in the main hotel. Dog friendly. Had coffee and light snack here. Reasonable prices considering it’s part of the hotel. Good food and staff very friendly. Lovely setting.

We went for lunch in the Atrium. We've been to Tortworth many times before. I'm afraid the food was decidedly inferior. My wife had a smoked ham and cheddar cheese sandwich; the ham was thin slices similar to a cheap pack of ham from Tesco's and the cheese looked like a Kraft cheese slice. The bread was nice, but really this is not what we expect from an establishment such as Tortworth Court - our local cafe serves proper sliced ham and cheese at half the price. I had a Caesar salad which I am afraid was tasteless; if you can't taste the dressing than frankly you just have a salad.

Great space to eat in the morning or at lunchtime, which is what we did. Lots of selection of food in the breakfast Buffett and they cater to those with allergies etc The cocktails give just the right kick and staff are really great.

A Beautiful Hotel with lovely grounds. On check in I asked about dinner in the Atrium Bar and was told it can’t be booked but was told I would get in the Restaurant if I needed too. The Atrium Bar was packed and The Restaurant fully booked. So would have booked on check in had I known. We eventually got a table in The Atrium Bar in a corner. We had a lovely waiter who found us a table before the food arrived who was very efficient( young man with glasses) Tables can’t be booked for Breakfast so we were in quite a queue. I think booking times would be better. The older man in the restaurant (short) was helpful on both days. The young staff also very helpful. We had lunch outside and ordered from a Hut but he kept having to go inside to get things as he was on his own. Beautiful Hotel, lovely grounds , lovely room. Just a shame about the Dining.

We visited for a dining experience only but thought it worth sharing as I will not be going back. The level of cleanliness within the hotel is absolutely shocking. We were seated in the atrium bar at a sticky and dirty table which had not been wiped down from the previous guests, and had to sit next to tables of dirty plates and glassware for the duration of our meal. The rest of the atrium area was filthy and needed a deep clean. The service he received was extremely poor - the lady we had was doing her best but there were not enough staff to cover the whole restaurant. Moving on to the food, this was mediocre (at best) and extremely overpriced. I had a club sandwich which was £16 and was nothing special. Couple that with the overall poor ambience of the hotel and I was extremely disappointed. Overall the hotel and grounds are beautiful, but it is totally let down by its cleanliness and poor service. Not what you would expect given the prices they are charging and I do hope that management read this and do better. I do note from reading previous reviews they only tend to respond to the positive ones…

We had a quick snack in the Atrium whist waiting for our room to become available( our fault,we arrived earlier than expected). The food and the service were excellent.

We ate here and in the restaurant and the restaurant is by far the better experience but if you want less fuss and a relaxed venue then this is the one for you.

Lovely building - awful service - do not use for a business meeting!This is a stunning location and I thought a perfect place to host a meeting over coffee. WRONG Sat outside and used the app to order 2 coffees on the terrace. Coffees ordered and paid for … nothing arrived … after 15 mins I called reception and lady said she would ‘chase them up’. After 35 mins still no drinks (this is a hour long meeting!) and so I went inside and the chap at reception said “we’re not serving drinks outside as its windy”. I said how was I meant to know that?? And the app let me order and PAY for the drinks? He just shrugged!! Hugely frustrated my meeting ended without us managing to get a drink in an hour.Moved inside to the atrium bar for second meeting and actually went to the counter to order. All good so far, they said they would bring it to the table …. 20mins later we’re still watching them try to work out the coffee machine.So, just go to Starbucks!!About an hour and a half to get a coffee and you’ll look stupid to your client or colleague if it’s you that choose this place for the meeting.Too few staff and the ones that were there had little of no training.Such a shame as this looked ideal a a meeting venue.

We ate here twice and the staff were lovely but not being able to book was a problem as there is only one other restaurant in the hotel. The room was very busy but there were some open doors to let in air. The staff all wore masks. We would have liked more on the menu with some good gluten free and vegetarian options. Steak was expensive at £28 but pizza was good and resonably priced with glten free base available. Watch out there is a service charge added to everything even if you go up to the bar yourself.

The setting of the Atrium Bistro Bar is beautiful. Such a lovely setting. The menu isn’t ‘cheap’ but the food definitely is. The food was the standard I’d expect at a very cheap pub or weatherspoons. The price and gorgeous setting was no representative of what was served.Watery curry that had obviously been microwaved. Cold chips with hard (melted… not) cheese and dry Mac and cheese balls with no cheese… just dry pasta in breadcrumbs.The restaurant manager was accommodating and took our food off the bill once we voiced our concerns but sadly would never visit here again. If you want a cheap kids meal this night do the job, if you want a lovely yummy meal… don’t bother! 1 star for the lovely setting only

Had drinks in here before dinner, great service from Rachel, even though it was full at this time. Lovely atmosphere and a very nice bar. Returned here later on in the evening, excellent service again.

We stayed in the hotel for 2 nights do we tried both restaurants. The Atrium was very good with an extensive menu, helpful staff and pleasant surroundings.The portion sizes were very generous and the food was very tasty.Recommended if you are stopping in the hotel

Great menu, and the food was delicious. A pleasant alternative to the main restaurant at the DeVere Tortworth Hotel. Excellent service.

Service was exceptional-once seated by our waiter, he was attentive and helpful, the meal was lovely, Nachos and curry (not together!)

We didn’t try the food, but the venue is lovely - perfect for a romantic drink. Tables are really well distanced and staff wear masks and are very professional.

We had evening drinks with friends and it’s a wonderful venue, very atmospheric and romantic. The table service was excellent very helpful staff

What a total joke, so yes you can eat in here but they don’t do table service so you have to walk back through the hotel to the ACTUAL restaurant to order ur food and drinks. This is not a restaurant it’s just a small room with a few tables no candles and place setting no nothing just bare wooden tables and no table service this whole experience was awful, hotel is vile.

Very relaxing place for a quiet drink. We didn’t feel the drinks were that over priced for a hotel. Very friendly bar staff

A wonderful Atrium bar in the Tortworth court hotel. Really well set out and great atmosphere. its gets a little dark though at night as the wall lights are dimmed. enjoyed it here.

We sat and read in here after checking out to lengthen our stay. Food was good, beautiful high glass ceiling let in loads of light but kept it warm on a wintry day.

Went as we were staying in hotel. Restaurant was busy as it was Saturday night. We were told we would have to grab a table when one became available and there was no reservation system. Building is fabulous and historically interesting a lovely place to eat. We sat with a drink for twenty minutes and no one came to us. Asked a member of staff if we should order food at bar and was advised yes. Went to bar and tried to order and was told that a waiter would come and see us. Advised we had been there a while and no one had been anywhere near us. Also advised that people who had been waiting for a table after we sat down had already given orders. As I said they were busy and staff were running about all over the place. There did not appear to be any system or structure and it appeared Management were struggling to deal with the situation and also just appeared to be directing people without actually doing little bits and bobs themselves. Having waited a little longer a barmaid actually came over and took our order. After our experience so far I wasn't expecting too much especially when my wife asked for no tomato or lettuce with her burger. To be fair the food arrived within a reasonable time and the order was spot on and of a really good standard. One issue was that we did ask for mustard to go with our food but it never arrived.

The atrium has a wow factor but was extremely busy so had to wait for service on both times we visited. Food choices not particularly exciting

Had a couple of drinks in here after our arrival in the afternoon,the pizza was first class,excellent service from the staff member.

Great food, fabulous ambience and the friendliest staff in the world. Gets popular so book your place.

First problem was trying to read the menu in the very poor light in the bar area, maybe just me but I really struggled.I was very disappointed with the choice - or lack of it. A few options for starters and again only a few choices of main course.I'm not a fussy eater so I found something I liked but it was very limited and what there was on the menu was quite expensive and not particularly good either, pretty much basic pub grub.Staff were friendly and the food appeared quickly but if there was somewhere locally as an alternative without having to drive (I stayed overnight in the hotel), I would have definitely gone elsewhere.

Without going into a very long review again, I would suggest that people read the Hotel review which I have just submitted.

As it was a week end, it was a bit crowded with the wedding crowd & other party crowd. Next day we could enjoy the meal which was great. Ambience is soothing and enjoyable.

We had lunch on the second day of our stay. As with the other restaurant in the hotel the food was basic and rather unimpressive.

This is an amazing place. The room is spectacular, the food excellent, the staff lovely. However, unnecessary plastic straws are freely handed out (or available on the bar) and all the biscuits with your hot drink are plastic-wrapped. So disappointing, and just not classy at all. Come on Tortworth, this is an easy change to make and would rid the world of thousands of pieces of plastic litter per week/month. How about a small piece of shortbread on the saucer - much more 'Tortworth'?

A sad disrespectful "transformation" of a beautiful historic building. Worn carpets, sink holes absolutely clogged with hair, poor over priced cuisine., room kettles old and furred... Disappointing... definitely would not stay here again

Wanted something not too big or expensive to have with a drink whilst sitting in this lovely airy atrium between buildings. The bar feels very welcoming with plants and lights and mirrored windows. Didn't want a big meal so opted for the cheese and biscuits tucked away at the end of the desserts. It was fantastic and excellent value too.

Para el precio de los platos la calidad no era la mejor. Los platos eran caros y sin calidad gastronómica. Mejor ir a otro sitio a cenar

We had a very good meal, one of us enjoyed the fish and chips and the atmosphere is great, quite a special place with very good aesthetics and keen service. As the main hotel restaurant was totally booked this was also our only choice but we didn't regret it. Menu is quite limited tho.

Sunday evening meal in the Atrium Bistro Bar of Tortworth Court Hotel. A good selection of meals and drinks at a reasonable price.

Fantastic bistro food , clean lovely ambiance and attentive staff. Fascinating architecture comfortable seating

We ordered the chicken curry, nan bread etc. The curry was in my opinion no better than a ready meal and the nan was 3" in diameter which is a large biscuit all for £32. I was expecting more from a 4 star hotel.

we were going to have lunch but there were so many flies around us we had a quick drink and left. Shame its a lovely space.

What a place to dine and have a drink. The menu is small but vast in variety, same for the childrens.

A lovely space but gets hot with no air-conditioning. Great for drinking a chatting .Not a great setup for breakfast.

We ate lunch here first before our spa time.

We ate here while on a 2 night break. The food was tasty. We had no issues. It can get busy so I suggest eating early or late.

We only came here for drinks as we were booked into the main hotel restaurant for dinner. A really lovely room, that feels like your outside, very cosy with fairy lights and comfortable sofas . We didn't eat, but the pizza being served to other guests looked and smelt fabulous.

This was a fabulous setting to have a drink and conversation, or a light meal. The food choices were limited, but fine for us to grab a quick bite.

We visited today, 19th June, to meet 2 friends for a light lunch in the Atrium. We ordered our food and once the food arrived we were pestered by flies. When we went to pay at the Atrium bar we were astounded to see how many flies there were. They were everywhere landing on the cups, glasses etc. It cannot be healthy, if the flies are like this in the public area what is it like behind the scenes. I complained to staff in the main restaurant who offered to call the duty manager but what would have been the point, what would they have done other than to say they are trying to sort it, with so many flies the Atrium should be closed until the problem is sorted.

Went here with family, my uncle used to work at Tortworth during the war and has many fond memories. He recalls how the building used to be and what it was used for. The Atrium did not exist then but it is a cosy warm atmospheric comfortable eating establishment now as part of the hotel.

We had a lovely day my daughter was married on 30th May. We were told the Atrium bar would be open as long as guests were there. The barman however, was extremely rude to me and my party at 1am. He closed the bar even although we had quite a few guests still buying drinks. We had 60 guests staying in the hotel. Moises team in the orangery were a delight and a stark contrast to the Rude barman in the Atrium. We stayed Tuesday to Saturday and had a fantastic time. We used the Atrium a great deal during our stay and everything was lovely. Except that one barman and his colleague too.

Good environment for business catch up. Services good. Food could be more competitively priced but quality good.

We ate in the main restaurant in this magnificent building. It is sunning from the drive in, the entrance hall, gardens right to the way out. The staff were helpful friendly. The menu has a good choice, the food was well presented and good value. We will return

Lovely area for a meal. Excellent food. Evening meal was good. Breakfast was excellent except very cold plates for the cooked breakfast so we had to eat quick. Really nice bacon and sausage.

This place serve great food but some of the member of the staff don't match the hospitality of the ones working the front desk and maybe should be sent out for training

One of the eating places at the Tortsworth Court. Took several meals in here, nice relaxed atmosphere, good service and well stocked bar.

I have been here a few time before, sometimes when we are at the bar waiting for drinks we feel like we are ignored as the staff just keep walking past, we do use the bar but sometimes find it a wait to be served which is a shame as it's such a nice place to be

My wife and I ate at this bar/ restaurant Easter Saturday evening and we enjoyed a lovely meal. The place was full but we didn't have to wait too long to be served the food was delicious and hot. The staff were very attentive you felt like you were the only couple in the room. We can't wait to return again in the future

Tortworth Court itself is great for a wander and soak in the atmosphere of the aboretum and grounds. Lots of outside tables and space.

We ate here the first night of our stay and we found this to be more intimate and quite compared to the main restaurant. The food was more like pub grub but still had a high standard...was very tasty!

What a wonderful room. Light and airy but full of a fabulous atmosphere. Great choice of food and drink.

Really helpful staff. Lovely food and a beautiful venue. Had a peaceful and pleasant time. Food was very nice.

Lovely food, a great range of drinks, a stunning setting and excellent service. Feels like sitting in an Italian courtyard but at the centre of the hotel.

Dropped in for lunch before a wedding at the hotel. Great steak sandwich and fab chips. Not cheap but then it's a 5 star hotel. Friendly staff, efficient service and a lovely atsmphere.

Stayed at the hotel and when ordering drinks at the Atrium it took ages to arrive and then when it did my teapot was dirty and the spout half broken off. We weren't given sugar bowl and had to request it. Nice area of the hotel. The grout in-between the tiled rectangular tables could do with a deep clean. I wouldn't eat from those tables and would recommend you use the marble top circular tables if you are eating.

Loved the Atrium bar in the hotel, so beautiful in the evening with fairy lights all around. Standard hotel prices for the drinks and food. Would definitely recommend.

Such a beautiful place for a meal and coffee. Friendly and professional staff and a good range of food. A gorgeous place!

Ambience of this bar is awesome. service from staff is good. We enjoyed drinks and snacks here. must visit.

Stunning set up for the bar. The height is awesome and how they have decorated it with lots of lights makes it feel truly beautiful. We both said we felt like we were in Spain or somewhere. We didn’t eat there but the food looked good we saw being delivered to tables

Used as overflow for breakfast for guests. Buffet service. Nice coffee. Unremarkable, but a pleasant room.

Great service. Staff willing to pour a glass of wine after closing the till for me to take back to my room. Very helpful staff.

Sadly unable to review......as it’s been closed for private functions, and hotel GUESTS are unable to gain entry!!!!

Really lovely bar with fairy lights and trees and just so pretty and relaxing. Efficient staff too and happy to serve.

Can’t speak highly enough of the food. The goose ale was sublime. Service was friendly and considerate.

Fresh food nicely presented in a beautiful room. Good choice on menu with something for everyone. Helpful and friendly staff who do their job well without being intrusive. Recommend highly.

Short menu -- had fish and chips and aa glass of wine. It was better than expected. Really good service in a relaxed way. Unique surroundings.

Small area which could get overcrowded if conferences in progress. Food good also service although waiter appeared rushed.

Got back fairly late and grabbed a really good pizza in the Atrium bar. Lovely thin cru st and very tasty.

Booked a room at tortworth court and popped in to the atrium bar for a few drinks. Place was full of flies so would of put me off eating in there. Think this is something that really needs sorting as there really was a lot of them. The bar is beautiful though

The Atrium Bar is worth a visit just for the decor. It is in a converted courtyard in the centre of the hotel, and is full of fairy lit trees; it’s very pretty. Both drinks and food are expensive, but you know that when you choose to go there, and it’s worth it for the ease of eating in the hotel. I had a margarita pizza and my husband had the leek and chicken pie, both were delicious. Service was a little slow, but the staff were friendly and polite.

Good bar food in a lovely setting and friendly atmosphere. Set in the middle of the hotel, makes a nice change from the main restaurant.

The Atrium bar is a stunning setting with a high ceiling and exposed brickwork. It is tastefully lit, the furniture is comfortable but fitting.

This is a lovely setting with a good choice of basic food served beautifully. The pizza and fish finder sarnie was really lovely and the boys working on the busy night that we visited were exceptional.

We live up the road and come here when we want a quick but fancier lunch. The hotel grounds and atrium dining area are absolutely lovely and the food is notably good. Today my daughter had the kids’ burger and was given an adult size setup with a juicy, perfectly cooked burger on a pretzel bun and some of the best chips we’ve tried in a while—perfectly crisp on the outside and lightly seasoned. I was surprised to find several vegan options, including the hearty bean tagine with couscous, which was delicious. My husband had a margherita pizza, with more than ample cheese that was perfectly prepared. We ordered at the bar and like usual, the food was out in a snap. The modern, cozy seating and sky-high ceilings provide one of our favorite lunch settings. The prices are what you’d expect at a hotel, but 100% worth it. Lots of great drink options, including draft ales, Italian espresso and specialty cocktails.

Lovely quiet area to eat breakfast and a meal if you don’t want to go to the main restaurant it has a bar and waiter service.

Lovely food and the prices arent bad too. I dont think the staff of the bar are quite as friendly as the staff of the hotel or restaurant but nothing to specifically complain about

Less formal than the resturaunt but still felt like a special occasion. Food was good and reasonably priced staff attentive and professional

Brief visit for drinks during an overnight stay. A lovely area with a nice atmosphere. Very tastefully restored. Staff were polite and friendly. Helpful too - we took a bucket of ice and glasses back to our room!

Really nice surroundigs for a chilled out evening meal. Very good food and service in historic surroundings

Long narrow bar with extremely high glass ceiling with table seating and comfy sofas, you can order snacks and drinks here which you can either have in the Atrium Bar or be delivered to the terrace. The glass ceiling is quite a feat of engineer

Such a great atmosphere in here, we really enjoyed relaxing in the evening with a drink here after dinner. They serve a good selection of wine, and had a few gin cocktails to offer up too. We found the staff really friendly - worth a visit if you're staying at the hotel.

Had dinner in here on the first night of our stay. A brilliant little bar but slightly overpriced. Saying that, I'd go again!

We ate in this Bistro on the second night of our stay, thanks to a disastrous first night in the main restaurant. I ordered an egg mayonnaise sandwich and a side order of chunky chips. The bread appeared to be from a bog standard supermarket loaf and there was a lot more mayonnaise than egg. I asked for the meal to be accompanied by a double fever tree tonic (they only had the small bottles) in a nice glass with ice and a slice. I got a pint glass with a plastic straw - there was ice, but no slice. I would have quite liked a pudding, but due to the daft rule of not being able to charge anything to the room unless you had a credit rather than a debit card, payment was asked for immediately. I didn't want the faff of having to re-order.

J'ai dîner dans ce. Restaurant à l'occasion de mon séjour à l'hôtel.

Very light and spacious area in an outdoor space atrium. Lovely relaxing room for food and drinks. Good for families, couples or business.

Service pretty bad- may be just understaffed, but no communication & no apologies, seemed like no one really took pride in where they worked. Great chips though.

Really liked the atrium, nice ambience , like sitting outside without the chill. We didn't eat in there but still got waiter service for drinks.

Had a sandwich and a bowl of fries. Which was fine. Service was a bit slow which was surprising as there were not many guests there at the time

The title of my review says it all. We ordered spaghetti bolognese and curry for dinner. Both lacked any flavour and the meat to rice / pasta ratio was miscalculated with far far too much pasta and very little meat. Service was lacking and given...

Very pleasant place to relax with a coffee or glass of wine. Cant comment on the food, but based on the hotels main restaurant (1853), Id advise nipping out for a KFC first. Not just our opinion but also that of another couple we chatted to.

Visited the Atrium with family for a birthday this morning. Looked after by the absolutely fantastic Mariana. Her kind heart and very lovable personality made our brief visit incredibly enjoyable. Certainly a reason to return in the future. Great service A++++

Food was simple but well cooked with good service in a relaxed setting. Prices were reasonable and what you would expect.

Service - excellent Food - mediocre at best Surroundings - pleasant Menu - limited which is fine if limited choice is cooked well.

Lunch was disappointing as the roll accompanying soup was microwaved to inedibility. Afternoon tea was fine, as was a simple dinner. Service was prompt.

The location feels very upper class and is pleasing to look at. However the food we ate inside, for a Birthday occasion, was so appalling it was a laughable.
