The Bronte Steak House in Banbridge

Reserved a table with an assistance dog. Staff were great and welcoming. The food was absolutely cooked to perfection and any allergies were dealt with at ordering. Lovely atmosphere and very friendly staff. Very reasonably priced too. Highly recommended

We had been planning to go to this restaurant for a few years but just never got around to it until now. After reading Facebook page I was excited to finally try it. We went on a Friday night for the steak deal. For anyone like me who is not familiar with the area, this restaurant is not in the town but instead out back roads. The decor is dated and really needs to be updated. Starters was small but tasty. The steak was delicious but not the best I’ve ever had. The service was very slow so we did not want to wait any longer for dessert. We had a wee nook in corner which was nice and private. If I lived closer I would maybe try again but it’s too far out and service too slow for me to want to travel to it again.

Usually this place has some of the best steaks about so I decided to take the family for lunch and for a change try their roast beef dinner. This was a mistake. Dry meat, peas like bullets, raw veg and a reheated Yorkshire that was like cardboard. Only good thing was the champ. Asked for gravy to try and add moisture and got the smallest gravy boat know to man for 3 of us that where having the roast dinner. Gravy wasn’t even that good. Atmosphere was also poor. No cheer in the place at all. Probably still do great steak but won’t be rushing back.

As a family we went to celebrate our dad/granda/great-Granda’s 80th Birthday. We had a lovely room to ourselves and the food was amazing and the staff friendly and helpful. Thank you!

I first and last visited in Feb and as soon as I booked my flight back over I booked my friend and I a table to come back again! Thank you for the warm welcome and yet again great hospitality. The food was delicious, perhaps a wee moment of disappointment that you’d sold out of the garlic cubes I’d travelled from Newquay for but the server offered to do the chips with the exact same garlicy goodness of the cubes which was really appreciated. Perfect excuse for me to come back again though, not that I need one! Absolutely spot on all around didn’t miss the mark anywhere. I can wholeheartedly recommend this place and I will certainly be back again.

We had an Anniversary Dinner with our daughter and son-In-law tonight. Absolutely first class service and amazing food. Fantastic menu with a great selection for everyone, a true gem of a restaurant!

Average food, very limited menu and even more disappointing the fact we were charged for something we didn't order, similar to table bileside..

Talked my family out of going to our favourite retaurant for here, due to their marketing on social media, big mistake! Their marketing is just that and doesn't reflect what we got. Steak was as tough as old boots, it looked good but you couldn't eat it. Definitely not melt in the mouth, like chewing on rubber. Not worth what we paid for it.Service was poor also, no management to be seen. When we complained we were told they would let the chef know, never heard another thing. Seem to be run by amateurs. Would not go back.

They are getting two stars because this evening my wife and I ordered two steaks medium, and they were delivered medium-rare. Also there are hidden charges on a Saturday and Sunday evening whereby the sauce does not come with the steak and is in fact charged to your bill with an extra £3 per sauce. Extremely disappointed considering it advertised itself as a Steakhouse and doesn't know the difference between medium and medium-rare as well as the underhanded hidden charges for sauces.

Had Sunday lunch at Bronte and it was fantasticGreat food lovely staff and well priced. Had never heard of white onion soup but compliments to the chef for that... was soooo tasty. I had chicken and hubby had steak. Both great but still managed to squeeze in cheesecake and pavlova. Will definitely be back. Well done everyone!

Had a lovely Sunday dinner here last week. Great service and everyone, including 2 teenagers, really enjoyed their food. This place is keeping up a high standard despite the recent challenges all hospitality has faced. Highly recommend. I had the burger which was so tasty, and I loved the crispy bacon. Others really enjoyed the roast chicken dinner. Desserts and cocktails also gorgeous, and good value for money. All good

My wife an I had our wedding ceremony, reception and evening reception here on Friday 9th July 21.Everything from the first instance when planning the wedding till the big day was such an easy experience thanks to Ian and Jane. Nothing was a bother or problem to them and to quote Ian when asked a question 'no problem'. Ian told my wife "if you have anything to worry about then we're not doing our job". And truer words have never been spoken, cause on the day from start to finish from the ceremony to the amazing food and evening buffet was a truly memorable occasion made so special by Ian, Jane and all the team at the Bronte Steakhouse.Highly recommend the Bronte for anything, from a beautiful night out for a meal to a special occasion.Just remember everything is 'no problem'

Attended an amazing wedding yesterday. From start to finish the day went well, with fantastic food and drinks. Staff and management were so accommodating, no request was ignored. We had a wonderful day, so much that I will be definitely booking a table for my family. Would definitely recommend. Thanks

I CANNOT recommend enough this amazing venue. From the ceremony to the reception both Ian and Jane were exceptional. Quality food, exceptional customer service and value for money. For the same price as room hire in a local hotel, we paid the same price for everything. Attention to detail was everything, from start to finish flawless food and service. Our wedding was amazing, beyond words. A lifetime of memories Thank you.

Attended my sister's wedding here yesterday and wow....amazing. From the very start the Bronte was the perfect host for the special occasion. The food was out of this world...and so much of it. The staff were personable and professional and made sure the day ran so smoothly led by their amazing boss Ian. Can't recommend this place highly enough. Can't wait to go back.

Got xmas dinner and it was a disgrace not enough soup for 3 brussel spouts were hard and the cream wasnt whipped for desert . Not good enough for the price they charged for it very dissappointed and will not be eating out of this place again

I recently visited the bronte steakhouse for dinner with my friends, couldn’t recommend it enough, Ian made us very welcome as did his staff. The food was top notch, steak was cooked perfectly. Will definitely be returning

Went here for a family meal 7 of us in total during covid, the staff had taken all relevant steps to ensure we felt safe, their service was quick and polite and the meal we had was fantastic. We hope to return in better times.

This was are first time at the Bronte, all I can say is we will be back. For main meal I got 12” Burger and Chips, this is the best burger I have had in years it was amazing highly recommend. The Mrs got Chicken Curry with half rice half chips, she said it was excellent but said next time the burger is on the menu.For dessert I got Lemon Meringue with fresh cream was out of this world, the Mrs got Crunchy Cheesecake.Too finish we decided to go for 2 Caffe lattes, they were lovely and nice wee finisher.Staff were nice and Covid 19 safe, will be back shortly for the burger lol

The food was lovely and the portion size was perfect. I ordered the mixed grill and my steak was medium rare and for the first time ever, the steak arrives exactly how I ordered it. The meat was fresh and flavoursome, and the pepper sauce was perfect...The staff were all friendly and we did not feel as though we was being rushed, or that any queries about the menu or the food were irrelevant as you often find in a majority of restaurants.Our waitress Colleen was brilliant and very accomodating, warm and made us feel welcome.For dessert we were spoilt for choice but both went for the chocolate brownie and ice cream. For any CHOCOLATE lovers out there - you will not be disappointed with this! It was warm, gooey and just really yummy!!! Over all great night.

Firstly I looked at previous reviews , it seems the owner doesn’t want to take any criticism on board and doesn’t accept a paying customers reviews. Being a business owner myself and as you liked to point out several times you create jobs for local people , so do I , over 100 , but regardless of any of that, ONLY for customers you don’t have a business or jobs for anyone, so maybe start to be more approachable to your customers instead of fighting with them when they leave honest reviews.I was excited to visit yesterday, but it was such a let down, starter was grand, main course which of course was steak as you are meant to be known for that, was disgusting, due to bad meat , half the sirloin was not able to be ate due to fat and grizzle , and the fillet no matter how much sauce you used, dry and chewy. The atmosphere was dry and not welcoming. It was a Sunday and to ask a waiter about if Sunday lunch was on , and not even know , was a bit surprising to. Times where hospitality businesses is really having to put extra effort in, I didn’t see it here, I seen the prices overpriced , and of course prices are up now due to covid , which I don’t care paying for as it’s all about keeping businesses going but I don’t enjoy paying prices for food not worth it.write back and tell me how your family run and don’t accept my review if you like but your customer is your business it would do well to remember that. The reason I couldn’t say to your manager on the day also was couldn’t find nor did want to go wondering during Covid.

We visited today for Sunday lunch having followed the restaurant on Instagram and it certainly did not disappoint. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the service was perfect just the right amount of time left between courses. The food was delicious well presented and good value for money, I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Four of us went to The Bronte last Friday night for a meal and we were all so pleased. We reserved a table and once we arrived we were seated straight away. Although it was busy, service was very fast and we got our food in no time. We all had the steak special, which was great value for what was included. I eat my steak rare and it was cooked to perfection! Staff were very pleasant and the restaurant was spotless. Would definitely recommend!

We dined at the Bronte twice over the course of a few nights stay at Tullymurry House (a landmark trust house nearby) on July 18th and 19th. We were a family of 5 (with 3 teenage children). We all agreed that the food was really excellent. We had great steaks, lovely sea bass, chicken curry and top notch desserts (churros were a big hit!). The staff were friendly and helpful when I had lost a pair of glasses, they kept them for me which I was very grateful for. Thanks!

I booked a table for me and my family, from the moment we entered the restaurant till we left we had nothing but exceptional customer service! The girls were ever so friendly, helpful and pleasant, nothing was too much! As for the food, it was beautiful!! My first time here and i will most certainly be back and recommend to all my family and friends!!

Went to the bronte for Sunday lunch with friends, food was fantastic, service was great and the lunch menu was very reasonable. The staff had all their PPE and we felt really comfortable and safe which was great as I'm pregnant and very weary of my surroundings. After returning home and telling my husband about the amazing steaks we decided to go for date night. We were sat at the door which was horrible as from our seats we couldn't see anything apart from a wall. I assumed this was due to social distancing but when leaving seen that there were numerous seats available yet we were put behind a wall beside the door with no view of anything but people leaving. Our starters were delicious and again the staff were super friendly and had all their PPE on. The main course was such a let down. My husbands steak was overcooked but managed to be hot on the outside and cold in the middle. I got chicken which was tasteless. Everytime I looked at my husband he was cutting pieces of fat and grisle of his steak or having to take it out of his mouth. He's not a picky eater so I knew he was struggling to eat it. I'd love to go back at some stage as I really enjoyed my first visit. I'd say it was just a bad night and unfortunate experience for us. One piece of advise I would give the manager would be, unless someone is requesting a very private seating area dont sit them beside the door behind a wall. Really was horrible.

Our experience at Bronte steakhouse wasnt the best after seeing so many good pictures and advertising online for here. We arrived and were told to wait in the bar area where we got our menus and made our order in the bar area before being seated 40mins later in the restaurant area. Kids food came out with our starters which was good as we waited a long time before being seated. The young waiter didnt have much waiting experience, not sure if it was his first day. Our steaks came out and we had no steak knives which we had to ask for along with pepper which the pepper dispenser was empty. Our starter plates sat for a good 15mins before anyone came to remove them for mains to come out. My husbands steak was rare when we had asked for medium (no blood) my steak was quite fatty but for a steakhouse I had higher expectations. Dessert was abit of a disaster, they didnt have anything on the menu that catered for allergies/veganism. I was offered a fruit salad and it was laughable what was laid out infront of me, a bowl of chopped up banana,1 rasberry and a handful of blueberries.I was told they had ran out to wait 20mins or so and they would have some,but I turned the offer down.Overall I wouldn't go out of my way again to dine here as it was just ok. Service not the best either.

Second time visiting and again did not disappoint. Soup was lovely, steak was absolutely devine. Highly recommend this place

We had booked the Bronte steakhouse as an anniversary lunch for the Sunday, we had been recommended it and looking forward to trying it for some time. When we arrived we were told our table was not ready and to go to the lounge for a drink which was fine. We were handed menus in the lounge to look at. A girl came to take our order and I was confused as I thought we had booked a table, she had said yes it’s not ready but il take your order now. After 10 mins we were asked to our table, a minute later our starter came out and we had no drinks or even been offered to order a drink. The main course came out straight away after the starter, we then had to ask to get drinks. The food was average, my husband asked for his steak medium rare and it was very rare. For a steakhouse he was not pleased with it at all. The whole time we were there we felt completely rushed and there was no atmosphere, not an enjoyable experience.

Few weeks ago husband’s steak didn’t taste great, mentioned it to staff, got no come back was just told it’s the same as what they usually have. Went again tonight. Slower than usual waited 40 mins from giving order, couple of groups came in after us and went in before! I might be fussy but had my lamb shank on a blue plate when everyone else had a white one, had the use of desert fork for mains, had pavlova for desert, slice of apple with it was badly bruised so was bad - plain to see! Husbands Apple tasted rotten! Not sure wether will be back again because for the money we pay we expect it all to be perfect. Went many times but feel things are slipping.

Came here because of being recommended it by a few people and have to say our food was amazing! We got the steak deal and we both loved it! Staff were lovely and food was served very quick which is great as usually when you order 3 courses you have to wait long but we were served quickly which was amazing! Can’t wait to come back

We went out to this restaurant as 2 couples, to sample local cuisine at its best and were not disappointed. Friendly and attentive staff, and steaks from the Special Menu were served-up that were a feast for the eyes (and our stomachs). Relaxing atmosphere, wine/beer and a beautiful dessert topped the night off. Well done.

We visited the Bronte for the recent wedding of Tiffany and Wayne, what a fabulous choice for their wedding reception. A traditional pub/restaurant set a few miles from Loughbrickland with fantastic views of the surrounding countryside. The staff were extremely attentive, and the meal from starter, through main course to dessert were absolutely perfect. Couldn’t have asked for a better venue to finish the day off.

What can I say. Wow, just wow. The starters and Mains was out of this world. I got the matured steak which I asked for medium-rare and it was cooked to perfection. Each bite, I just wanted more. Drink where available throughout the meal and servers kept in touch throughout the service, incase we needed anything or if there where any questions.

Went here on Sunday 15th. From start to finish service was Impeccable. Starters cooked to perfection as was the mains for everyone. We even managed to squeeze in a sweet at the end. Quite an achievement considering the meal we had. Steak ribs cooked to perfection mixed grill my son had perfect as was the vegetarian option my wife had. Highly recommended this establishment.

Went in for dinner with my family. First all the setting is very dated. Heard mixed reviews about the bronte and wanted to try it for ourselves. Definitely a let down. Food was very basic for a steakhouse - expected a lot better. Upon finishing our meals we fancied a dissert to add a bit of flavour - within 20 mins of finishing our dinner no one came near us to lift our plates or anythng so we just paid the bill and left. Wont be be back. Nothing worth shouting about unfortunately

My husband and I went to the Bronte Steakhouse for an evening meal. The menu is quite limited but, we were able to choose two mains that suited. Chicken Schnitzel topped with mushrooms and cheese was very tasty, served with mixed salad. Hubby’s sirloin was perfectly cooked to his liking, side orders were good.

Went here earlier this evening. Very ordinary place with a mumsy atmosphere - not a good thing! I enjoy a steak - this was not a good stew - my advice, get some new staff and source your meat from somewhere else!

Travelled from Lisburn for anniversary dinner! Hadn’t been in a few years and certainly did not fall short of what I remembered! Service was lovely, food delicious and very quick!

Great place. When first arrived into bar as we were early. Drink order taken then food order. Brought through at time of booking and food arrived could not of been happier with it, food and service very high standards no waiting about cooked to order Highly recommend. friendly staff. Very clean. Quick service.

Between slow service, kids being the last served, birthday cake being brought out without notice while half the party being outside for a smoke and chewy, tough steaks all round I think it's best to not read into the hype. I expected a LOT more

Went here for a birthday function with a group of 22 people. The service was first class and nothing was any trouble. All the food was served together and swiftly. All the orders were correct with everyone's steak cooked to their liking. The portion sizes were huge and they kept coming with more sauces and sides. Highly recommend the Bronte, the food has always been great and staff always friendly. Also they catered for any food intolerances which was a bonus.

Lovely, rustic restaurant. The steaks were perfectly cooked and the staff was very friendly and attentive. We'll definitely be back.

Had not been there for years and the establishment had been modernised since then. A bit off the beaten track but that's not a bad thing; certainly did not deter customers as the place was busy.

Went for my birthday meal with some friends. There was 7 of us altogether and we all wanted to do the steak deal (2x starters, steaks and dessert as well as a drink) and they allowed for one in the party to do it herself and split the price in half (something they did not have to do) great service and food was amazing, steaks all cooked perfectly and massive portions. The steak deal is great value for money and they don't compromise on quality of food for the steak deal (something other restaurants do for their deals)

Travelled from Belfast with my young family as a friend recommended the restaurant. We went for the set mother’s day menu and everything from the welcome, the setting, the service and the food was top top class and great value for money

Went here today with a party of 8 adults and 3 kids, for mothers day. The Sunday lunch menu was £4 a head dearer than the normal Sunday lunch menu but the menu was pretty much the same, nothing more special on it. The service was terrible, the staff

Had lunch here with a part of 12. Haven’t eaten here in about 7 years and it hasn’t really changed a bit which is a good and bad thing. Food was great and many raving fans at the table. The steaks are of course the centre piece. Would be good to see more sauces and options etc. All in all a very enjoyable meal, but not unforgettable.

After dining here a few times a number of years ago we went with high expectations only to be very disappointed. We visited with spouse and children on a quiet Sunday afternoon and it wasn’t at all as expected. Firstly, I don’t think it’s right to leave poor reviews when you don’t mention at the time and give management the chance to address concerns: so I made sure I did at the time. When asked by a staff member when I paid was everything okay - I truthfully confessed we had waited 55 minutes for food despite the restaurant being quiet, that the service wasn’t great (we had to ask for absolutely everything - drinks, glasses, dishes to be taken away etc) and that the starters were awful. I ordered Brie which was like rubber and my husbands prawn and crab starter was dreadful. It was so obviously defrosted badly, was just tiny little prawns in watery, tasteless sauce. He didn’t finish it and he was starving and can usually eat almost anything! My son’s pizza was returned to the kitchen virtually untouched. He said it was like soggy dough and when I tried it he was right: was a cheap frozen pizza with some extra toppings. My steak was okay but the pepper sauce was really horrible and onion rings had been cremated: no onion left and so hard they were impossible to eat. The desserts were okay. All-in-all it was really disappointing and for £57 totally over priced for the poor food. Perhaps most disappointing of all was the member of staff’s reaction when I told her about our poor experience - she said absolutely nothing in response. As a family our tastes are quite simple and we are not hard to please so I can’t understand positive reviews. Maybe we were just there in a bad day for the kitchen staff. One things for sure - we won’t be back anytime soon.

Recently my Wife and I paid a visit to the Brontë Steak House.

As always, top quality food and exceptional service. Keep up the excellent work guys. Local restaurant and as always never fails to disappoint.

What can I say, great food, service and restaurant! We have eaten at the bronte steak house a good few times and the only complaint is that it’s too far away but definitely worth the travel. I have ordered the fish and steak before and cooked to perfection! Loads of food, cooked to order, really fresh, clean restaurant, friendly staff, we were really happy with the food and service. Will be back when we are back in the area.

Been a few times now and their is nothing to beat the food value and service. The steaks are always cooked to perfection.

To the person who states "first visit & won't be back" etc...

Went here at the week end with my friend gareth,we both have been here before so knew what to expect,the food was 5* as expected,the waitress was so helpful,and the owner ian also introduced himself what a lovely man and family business he has built up,the atmosphere was brilliant the cosy we bar where we had a few drinks before our meal,then in to the heat of a lovely stove to finish our meal,just perfect thank you again ian and the bronte well worth the 4 hour round trip from fermanagh.

We were invited here by good friends, so we had to bite our tongues at some of the rubbish served up, but it spoiled what should have been a great night. We will never return here again.

As well known for its steaks all three of us had steaks all sirloin All beautifully cooked to spec.

Thoroughly enjoyed our 40th wedding anniversary meal here with our son and his wife. Steak in all four cases was cooked to perfection and pepper sauce had a nice kick to it. Plenty of extras to choose from and nice dessert selection. Staff are friendly and courteous and are seen, but not heard.

Steaks were delicious and perfectly cooked. All sides were lovely and the desserts we finished our meal with were very tasty, especially my salted caramel roulade with whiskey ice cream. Staff were very attentive and friendly and sevice was prompt. Will definitely be back!

When you book a table for dinner you would expect to be seating in and around that time, not have to wait over an hour to be seated and the group stuck into one corner. I would expect this maybe if the place was packed but upon being shown to our table there were a lot of spaces available so no reason why we were not served until after 9pm.

I love this place - all the food is great and so is the service! The Salmon I had was beautifully cooked and the desserts were amazing.

Came here for a Sunday lunch and was very happy, had a drink in the lounge beforehand then was taken through into the main restaurant. Had a 3 course meal which was sublime and very reasonably priced.

Went with family including children and were made very welcome. The staff were very friendly and helpful and our orders were taken quickly. After being served the staff checked several times to make sure everything was ok which it was due to the delicious food. I will be back!

I have been here numerous times in the last year with my girlfriend and have never left with one bad remark about the place. Food & atmosphere are absolutely brilliant! Highly recommend the garlic potato cubes to accompany any of the steaks.

We visited recently for the Friday night steak night. 2 starters, 2 steaks, 2 sides, 2 sauces and 2 drinks (soft drinks/beer/wine) £45. We were served promptly and took our seats in the restaurant. Our meal was very tasty and exceeded my expectations to be fair. The waitresses were attentive and one was always near by. I thought the steak night was good value and will be back to sample it again.

The first time at the bronte restaurant. I ordered the cod, which I discovered was full of bones. Very disappointing as the bones were huge and ended up eating my side dish rather than the fish. We ordered a coffee with the dessert, which in the end never came. The customer service could be more attentive which would give the restaurant more of a buzz. Wouldn’t be in a rush back.

After reading good reviews myself and some friends decided to go for steak and few beers.

Well where do i start,brought my family here tonight for a meal,one of the nicest places i have been in a long wile,the food was to die for not sure what everybody had but they all were just so happy and complimentary towards the food,as for myself the choices of steak on the menu was the best i have ever seen you usually get 1 option of a steak here there was about 5,i ordered the 14oz sirlion and thank god i did,was cooked to perfection,the staff were so friendly and always made sure we had all we needed,cant thank you enough bronte steak house for a excellent family night,roll on the next 1 until we can come back,see you all soon.

Went with my brother and friend. We are easily pleased people, want a beer, non chewy steak and creamy pepper sauce. Chewy steak, undercooked chips, watery pepper sauce. Overall let down, didnt taste any different to my 70 year old mothers sunday dinner.

Visited for Sunday lunch. Staff were very good. There were plenty of options available on the menu. Lots of options for kids too. Service was great. Portions were so huge that we would have left stuffed after the main but the Sunday lunch menu is a 2 or 3 courses deal.Very reasonable prices

Went there for friday steak night. The deal was a starter and steak plus side order and sauce and a drink each.

Visited recently for a family birthday celebration for Sunday lunch.

Myself and partner visited last Friday night as we had heard such good reports. I made a reservation for 7pm but we were not seated until half... despite their being a few empty tables in the restaurant! It was steak night, which seems like a fab deal until you add the supplement payments for fillet, so it ended up being a standard price and did not feel like a deal at all. The starter selection from the steak night menu is not extensive (all the starters on main menu sounded incredible so will be back to try them). We went for nachos and chicken wings, which were very tasty! The steak was PERFECT and the champ was amazing!! Will definitely be back.

Hadn’t been here for a few years and was very disappointed on this visit at the weekend.

Visited The Bronte last weekend for a birthday meal and had an amazing feed! Decided to go for the Steak deal and wasn't disappointed. Friendly, attentive staff, great portion sizes and did not leave hungry! Also would highly recommend you try their Gin selection! Malfy Gin and Grapefruit lemonade is a good shout!

Wow first time at the bronte staek house me and my husband went for our anniversay. Steak night friday 2...

At the bronte steakhouse yesterday for lunch.We all had a really lovely meal.Thanks to all the great staff who looked...

Went here on the recommendation of friends, however we left quite deflated and disappointed. One of our party ordered fish...

Always enjoy coming here! Me and my partner have now made this our place for a good feed! Top marks!

Shared the pate to start, huge portion, and very enjoyable. For main course I had the steak pie that was...

Dined here recently for a friend's birthday. We were a party of 8 and all made very welcome before enjoying...

Went here last week end with my family for my birthday,staff were warm and welcoming,lovely warm open fire burning made it warm and the atmosphere was also brilliant,felt so relaxed and comfortable from the moment we went through the door,when the food came it did not disappoint,my wife had crayfish for starter and said it was beautiful,my son had chicken and chips which he loved,my wife had sea bass which she said was so fresh and could taste the flavours,i had the sirlion steak which was amazing,overall the best meal i have had in a wile,will be back again soon,keep up the good work#brontesteakhouse.

The Bronte has always been a local restaurant that I heard amazing things about but never got round to going! I decided finally to have a little date night here and was so impressed! I booked without looking at the menu so was pleasantly surprised when we got there and seen the steak night offer! 2 starters, 2 steaks, sides and sauces and 2 drinks for £45! The food was so tasty, especially the steaks, which I guess is good for a steakhouse! The service was also very attentive and pleasant, I like the fact you have a drink and order in the lounge before going to be served dinner at your table! I will most certainly be back!

The bronte is lovely, Friendly staff & great food! My favourite place to go out for dinner! Never disappoints!

Had a family meal at the weekend. The setting was very inviting, the staff were attentive and efficient. The menu catered for all of us (adults and children). The food was excellent, cooked and presented beautifully! I really enjoyed the evening.

I was part of a large group that visited third weekend in October '17Service was ok - certainly not great - we had to keep asking for things - staff don't understand it's their responsibility to replenish the jugs of water The Food - it wasn't great and it wasn't even good - in parts it was pretty awfulThings that were supposed to be hot were cold and when we pointed this out to the staff they said 'did you want them hot' !!!!!!!Overall the food was bland and lacked basic seasoning. They offer potatoes in every type and shape. I had the chicken and it was over cooked.A lot of dishes come without an accompanying sauce for which they charge extra - beware This restaurant gets good reviews but not from me. Did I hit it on a bad night ? Perhaps Will I personally go back - no.

Went here tonight after a recommendation from a friend. I won’t be listening to his opinion again. I couldn’t fault the service. We had potato skins which were on the poor side of average. We also had the crayfish starter. I had two forkfuls and found the crayfish very chewy. It was a cold starter not what I expected. I told the waitress about it to no avail. We had sea bass for main course which was flavourless. The black olive crumb was soggy and not crispy. The steak was cooked well but I couldn’t find any other food that I would recommend. Lacking in atmosphere(apart from the crying baby)

Dined here as two couples both opting for the £55 meal for two deal excellent value, three different starters all lovely, steaks cooked to perfection and a drink each included as was the miniature Platter of desserts. Would highly recommend beautiful food and top notch service. We also had a lovely table in the corner which was perfect everyone thoroughly enjoyed the meal and fab service. Would highly recommend.

Meal was excellent. Service fast and staff attentive. Overall an very enjoyable visit. Would recommend.

Went to Bronte tonight steak amazing cooked to my liking desert a beautiful pavlova ,Would highly recommend you to try this beautiful restaurant set in lovely country side ,staff very attentive polite friendly and most of all professional ,very busy tonight and still everyone had time for you ,congratulations to kitchen team for a wonderful meal ,management team you are doing a great job with your staff ,such a pleasure to go to a well run establishment and get the service in the dining room we had tonight ,if you haven't tried it before give it go its a well deseved 100% to Bronte they earned it tonight ,thanks Bronte for the experience of good service and brilliant food

lovely relaxing atmosphere , staff friendly had a good night and lovely meal , it was busy when we arrived but we ordered a drink which was bought to our table in the bar until a table was ready in the restaurant which was not to long would go back

Love heading here for a meal with my partner - it is always great. Which then we decided we would then have a larger group come for a birthday meal - again food was great, service was excellent! Great food, great atmosphere and attentive staff! P.S Chocolate brownie is amazing!! Cant wait until my next visit!

Went here this evening with my son. Ordered two of the steak specials, didnt get the lobster tails with the Tbone. We didnt realise until home later and talking about it, rang and got very poor attitude from staff who argued that we hadnt ordered the specials despite the fact we never lifted a menu. Train your staff in customer service. We won't be back

We have been meaning to come here for years. Meal started with tacos that were bland. I had steak since this is a steak house. Steak was supposed to be medium to well done but was almost well done. It was good but not "wow!". My wife had almost finished her burger and asked me if I thought it was cooked properly. When I looked at it there was pink uncooked lumps in it. She didn't want to make a fuss but a burger undercooked is dangerous and a professional chef should know how to cook a burger. We said to the waitress and she checked with the chef. She apologized on chefs behalf and took price of our drinks off the bill. I think the chef should've apologized in person and we should not have had to pay for an undercooked burger. Won't be back. You have lost potential custom from us, friends and family.

Was here today for Sunday Lunch, the place is 'old fashioned' but staff are so warm and friendly this didn't put me offWe were out for Sunday lunch.....my two children and my mother got the 'roast beef / lamb or chicken' dinner and the meat was absolutely fantastic (the vegetables were hard though)I chose incorrectly.........I ordered the 'half roast duck'. Im sorry now that I wasnt honest when I was asked ' was all ok'. Truth was it had been deep fried, was therefore greasy (duck can be anyway) but worst it had been cooked for too long and much of it was crispy and difficult to eat. I personally have never ordered 'roast duck' for it to be deep fried??This place is awesome for their steaks........so if going, stick to these options.We travelled for half an hour to get here........I will be back, but not for Sunday lunch.Sorry Bronte

Beautiful restaurant with lovely food. Had table booked for 8pm & had to wait to almost 8:30pm before being seated but this wasn't a problem for us as the food as worth the wait. Steak cooked to perfection!

Myself and 12 family members came here for a meal as part of my birthday celebrations. We had all been to The Bronte before and the service and food was just as good as our previous visits. We were in a private room behind the main bar which is great for larger parties. The service was excellent as always and the food was delicious. So much to choose from and lots of different side orders to try. The steaks were cooked to perfection. Thank you to The Bronte for an amazing birthday meal. We will be back again soon.

You'll never miss out with the steak here! My 9 year old ordered steak as her main as well and was highly impressed by it! Staff friendly but could improve their communication skills as,in my experience, I had to get their attention by shouting out few times wich could be improved to more attentive by simply being more attentive .

Went out with some friends and had a great wee night. It's 2 starters, 2 mains, 2 sides and 2 drinks for £45 on a Friday so we had to check it out! Great meals, lovely service and fantastic price! Can be busy tho so you might have to wait a bit to be seated

Have had food here a few times if you havent tried it it is a must!! Staff are always welcoming and food is delicious menu is great with lots of selections and great for couples kids and families
