Pie and mash portion was on the small side but the quality can't be faulted. £25 for a nice bottle of wine was more than reasonable.

Food was average-at-best, the portions were tiny, and it was very expensive for what it was. Service was slow - it took ages to even get a drink. The waitress hassled us to decide on food. Wouldn't recommend.

This is a very nice place indeed. It's a converted 1930's cinema and has been converted with a very sympathetic touch. The staff as excellent and looked after us very well. Now to the food. Absolutely beautiful food cooked and presented perfectly. Not too flashy and just the right portion size. Price wise just what I would expect to pay for quality food, service, surroundings and atmosphere. Not cheap but not overly expensive. If I did have one negative comments it would be that it got a bit noisy at one point but it is popular and we sat next to the pianist, but it did get better. In my opinion I would highly recommend Gatsby's..

The restaurant itself has a nice feel to it, good lighting and designed well. Service to start was slow and had to ask for menus but it got better throughout the night. The food was the best part, all 3 courses were excellent. Steak was as good as I had hoped and the brownie was a great way to finish the night. Had a great table that suited for 5 friends to sit round and catch up.

The staff inside are wonderful. Women and men alike are kind and attentive. The Maître d’ are where things perish, he was rude and demanding of his staff. He acted as if he ran the whole business and let everyone know (in front of customers) where staff were not good enough. I wound not recommend this place to any couples where he is on the door because he was rude and belittling. The staff inside were so pleasant, it is a shame to see someone like that as the Maître d’ considering they would be the face of the company. Would not recommend for anyone coming for dinner or casual drinks.

You NEED to eat here. After a couple of visits and sampling the delicious menu we decided to book our wedding reception here. Nick was extremely helpful, talking us through all the steps and suggesting times and the general ‘flow’ of the evening. Without his input it would’ve been a lot more difficult putting together the event. On the day Nick was there to keep everything running smoothly. The chefs at The Gatsby are absolute Artisans – There was no shortage of absolutely top rate food. I am always apprehensive of ‘Wedding food’ as it has a reputation…but our food was stand-out – Wish I could eat that meal again, It was brilliant. All our guests have commented on how stunning The Gatsby is as a location, and how delicious and plentiful the food was. I would do it all again in a heartbeat. I cannot fault them. If you are looking at a place to hold an event or a wedding reception – The Gatsby would take some beating!

Good service, location and food. The only thing I did not like yesterday, was the rude attitude of the dj who saw that most people were disturbed by him playing with the volume. And he carried on with the same thing. The other dj whom we saw a couple of times did the right thing and kept the music at decent levels. The one from yesterday kept it so loud at times that is was almost impossible to hear and understand even the person sitting next to you. It's a lovely place but not a disco and I love music but you should be able to carry a normal conversation and not having to scream at one another. If I did not like this place so much, I was about to leave because of the dj s disrespectful behaviour for the customers.

Upon purchasing a very large round of drinks for friends, we were all enjoying these when the owner comes out and kneels next to our Asian friend. He starts calling him Usman and saying that he's on a pub watch list, our friend showed his ID to prove this was a case of mistaken identity although the owner was insistant that he was in fact Usman even after seeing the ID, our friend was very calm in the situation but we noticed this conversation. He was embarrassed and wanted to leave so we all followed suit with over half of our drinks remaining. The owner showed no remorse and was insistant on that he was trying to do us a favour and couldn't see the issue with what he did. We were sickened, will not return while that man runs the place...

Bigot manager/owner. AVOID THIS BAR! It deserves a rating of - 0! Entered with 10+ people. Ordered our round of drinks in the garden, all drinks arrived with everyone enjoying the sunshine - when randomly the manager/owner decided to approach the one Asian in the group and insisted that he knew him, that his name was ‘Usman’, and that he was known to the pub watch group. He told my friend to leave the premises immediately before he calls the police! Fact, our ‘Asian’ counterparts name is in fact ‘Darren’, and he’s never been to the area before, let alone the pub! The manager/owner still decided to interrogate our friend and told him that he knew his name was ‘Usman’ - despite ‘Darren’ showing him his ID! Following this, the manager/owner showed the pub watch photo of 'Usman' to a member of our group, after refusing to show it to ‘Darren’. The photo was of another man, of Asian ethnicity, which made no resemblance to ‘Darren’ whatsoever. This truly was the worst form of discrimination I’ve seen in a very long time, and I’d highly recommend to avoid this bar - spend your money elsewhere! Bigot manager/owner - AVOID!

Manager is called Nick, here is a story about Nick: Decided that the one Indian guy with us in the group was the Indian guy on his pub watch. Despite being shown his ID to prove otherwise and that the image looked absolutely nothing like him, the similarity started and ended with his skin colour. When challenged he said that he has the same skin colour and stubble so is definitely the guy. Handled shockingly, intimidated our friend, refused to refund our £100 order of drinks that we abandoned in order to leave the premises. Genuinely the worst example of stereotyping / profiling I have witnessed. The owners should be ashamed, shocking, avoid this place. I wish I could give less that one star. Avoid

I will start by saying the food we had was tasty and fresh but there where a few things that let the evening down. The service was a bit all over the place. One waitress spilt water all over our table and just left it there… no napkins with icy cocktails so they just melted on the table and then subsequently dropped in our laps. For the cost of the evening I would have liked the service to just be a little bit better. We where sat in the bar area and the music was really not fitting for the venue. Loud and pretty unsuitable. With it being a bar I get having music but pendulum and other club type music just didn’t feel right and made the place feel a bit uncomfortable. The man on front of house was grumpy and didn’t seem very welcoming. Felt like it could be a really great venue as the food really was great just a few things letting it down.

The first time I’ve been here. Had a lovely Sunday lunch with friends. The food was delicious (portion size slightly too big!) and waiting staff attentive and friendly. The restaurant was spacious and airy. Parking is not easy! The best place I could find was the Canal Fields car park which is free for up to 4 hours but it’s a 10-15min walk to The Gatsby from there. The website states a strictly smart dress policy in the evening but it seems to be much more relaxed in the day time. Many other customers were in jeans, trainers etc and I felt a little overdressed having gone smart to be on the safe side!

Decided to end our holiday with a meal and cocktails mid afternoon. We were seated outside and service was good. Only 2 vegan options on the menu which was disappointing but meals were good. No offer of a dessert menu after plates were cleared, but we ordered another cocktail and paid the bill at the same time as the staff were getting busy. A couple of minutes after our cocktails arrived we were told that they would need the table back in 15 mins so we felt rushed and pushed out because we had paid the bill. It is expensive and we spent a lot of money so didn't like being asked to hurry and leave, other than that we enjoyed ourselves

I'd heard great things about this place and it looked nice enough. I was not entirely sure about the sinks as decoration. Surely instead of filling then with polystyrene and fake plants and dirty items, the small display cabinet could be enlarged to display the food better? The decor was unfinished with ply board stuck to the walls. I was not sure if this was to try to be intentionally cool, but it just looked like a bit of ply wood stuck to the wall. I ordered an Americano with milk to go. The staff were pleasant enough, but I wouldn't call them enthusiastic - I'm sure the original advert for staff probably had this as a requirement, but it was lacking on the day I went . The coffee was given to me in one of those tiny polystyrene cups that you might get in a church hall after a service and run by old ladies who usually knit, the type of cup you get very milky tea in when you're desperate for something hot, but you're happy to hand over 10p for it. It is not the type of cup you fill with coffee that you charge almost £3 for. An Americano is usually a large drink for a start so I was shocked to be handed this in a cup so tiny and insignificant, but I thought, well obviously the coffee inside must be of such high quality that I'm sure I can forgive this oversight. Maybe they had simply ran out of the type of cups you would expect from such an establishment. But sadly the coffee was bad, and when I say bad, I mean really bad. I had one sip and threw it in the bin. I genuinely say this, but if I was the owner and I had run out of cups. I would rather give it in proper mugs and apologise and encourage people to stop and sit instead. But to offer such substandard coffee is I'm afraid, quite unforgivable. I could not see any other coffee shops along the road, so they have the monopoly in the area. But if there are any would-be coffee shop owners out there looking for a new place to open a coffee shop, I would encourage you to open here in town. And please don't worry, because after all, you will not have any competition from Fred and Ginger.

Challenging Lockdown surprise. I rang Geoff ( co Proprietor) on the of chance that I could pick up a surprise meal for two? ( We had organised a picnic in the summer, It was perfect).Geoff passed the phone to Claire, his business partner, she could not have been more helpful. She said select your menu choice. I emailed my wish list including Dessert Apple Tarte TatinWhen I spoke with Claire and agreed the price she offered an appropriate bottle of wine from their stock and a bunch of flowers from a local store. It all arrived on time, excellent service. THANKSWe will definitely use them again.
