Amazing service and the food was delicious! Would thoroughly recommend! A particular thank you to Megan, who looked after us so well.

The vegetarian breakfast is simply the best, total class. Lovely friendly atmosphere...worth travelling from Lincoln for the cafe alone. 🙂☕

Great place with all delicious vegetarian and vegan foods. I highly recommend vegetable biryani and masala fries to everyone.

Wow - what a wonderful restaurant. First class service and outstanding food - what a truly amazing experience. A lovely atmosphere from the moment we stepped through the door.

Lavenham is a beautiful place but what makes it special is this beautiful tea rooms. Run by a super friendly lady passionate about great service, this is a place you just come in by chance to have a cup of tea but once inside you want to have a full breakfast and then stay for lunch and dinner. And then come back again next day and do it all over and over and over … Highly recommend this place and thank the owner for making this place so special and adorable with its decor, ambiance, food and drinks and service.

Recently went to Socius with family. My husband is currently on an elimination diet which is extremely restrictive. I emailed the restaurant a week prior to our visit to see if/how things could be adapted, thinking some advance warning might be beneficial for the kitchen, but also us to save lengthy conversations at the table. I received a really kind and helpful response back ensuring me that dishes could be easily adapted and my husband would receive his own menu on the night with plenty of choice. This was exactly what happened and all the modified dishes were DELICIOUS! Upon arrival we were immediately asked who was the member of the party with the allergy, and when sat down, we were given an extra printed menu with all of the 'safe' options on. The fact a separate menu had been generated was a really simple but thoughtful touch that made my husband still feel included and normalise his experience. All members of staff that came to the table were aware the allergies and made us feel totally relaxed and at ease. Due to his diet being restrictive, we have not been able to eat out since it began so to be able to still enjoy our Socius experience was incredible. The highlight definitely had to be the adapted 'Socius chocolate bar', the one item my husband was devastated to miss out on - and he didn't have to!! Thank you again to all the team for another lovely visit, and for going to extra mile for us. It was noticed and greatly appreciated. We had a lovely time (as always!), and we cannot wait to come back.

Me and my wife had a lovely afternoon tea for two. I like ordering before we arrive so we know we will get what we have ordered. It is expensive compared to other places but the quality is better. My only gripe is the service charge being added to the bill. We asked for this to be removed but this is happening at more and more places and it's really annoying. Does this go to the staff or are you trying to improve your profit margin?

This is a really great place to eat for all occasions. I went with my family and there were many different options including delicious options for vegans/vegetarians. The staff are so friendly and helpful and there is a lovely calm atmosphere. 100% recommend. Probably best food I have ever had!

This is my first time coming for a meal at xoxo grill house and I have no words to describe my experience , lively customer service, food was amazing and the service even better. Azair has given us a random experience I recommend

Attended a tasting menu for valentines evening g . Food was lovely and the staff where very attentive but unfortunately although private dining there was another couple who was there and was very very loud and completely controlled the whole evening. Couldn't hear what the staff was telling us about the courses and didn't even have a conversation with my partner as i couldn't hear him. Considering the cost I would have thought the staff could gave told them to keep the noise down as other people in the joining resturant also mentioned the noise as this was also our 41st wedding g anniversary it totally spoil our evening I know it wasn't the resturant fault but I think the manager should have step in. Another couple who was there also didn't enjoy the experience either because of the same problem

The Golpo team were very accommodating, friendly and helpful. Highly recommended. Good food too. The Golpo team were very accommodating, friendly and helpful. Highly recommended. Good food too.

This is our third time here we just love it. The food is absolutely delicious the ambience is cosy, lovely spots for families and friends. Absolutely recommend. Out waiter Volkan was excellent and very professional.

Another great meal enjoyed by all four of us diners. We all had the Sunday roast. As always, great service from the friendly staff.

This is an exceptional restaurant which is a must visit if you are in the area. The tasting menu is great value and there was not one dish that was a disappointment. Imaginative and clever flavour pairing made for a complete experience. Staff were great and the whole place is clearly a labour of love. Do go!
