Even though it was a warm day, I really fancied a roast beef Sunday lunch, but one that wouldn’t break the bank. At £15,50, this delivered - a really generous and tasty plate of food. Not gourmet but extremely satisfying and excellent value. Service lovely too.

I’m too hungry to write well. But this is only the second time EVER that I have been to a restaurant that served our table NO FOOD. We arrived before 6pm and were shown to the basement - often not a good sign. We placed our order just after 6 and had to leave to get to the match by 7.20. There was no food by then. The poor waitress kept saying “five minutes” but was clearly getting nowhere. Of course it was down to really terrible management. And aggressive with it. Apparently we should have understood that it was a bit of a lottery whether any food would be served: the manager pointed proudly to two other tables where people had had to leave without getting any food at all. Clearly Gem was trying to profiteer off hungry fans and accepted every booking, even when the management must have known they were completely unable to serve everyone. I suppose it was a risk worth taking for the restaurant - just not for the customers. Gem by name but not by performance or attitude. Will buy some halloumi on the way home…

Incredible food! A lovely warm atmosphere and the staff are very nice. A very good selection of gluten free options, and they have gluten free soy sauce too! Great choice for coeliacs/gluten free - I’ve been here many times and will continue to come back.

Amazing food. A real hidden gem. Portion sizes are big and there was nothing to fault. I left my scarf behind and they kindly posted it to me promptly with no charge for postage which I was more than happy to pay for. Great service and we will be returning.

I had a quick lunch here . I am not a vegetarian and chose a fake chicken dish which was delicious. The food was quite spicy ( perhaps necessarily to mask its blandness ). Service was prompt and efficient. I will go back.

Cancelled on day attending. Booked this 4 days previous and had an email saying they are cancelling the booking a few hours before we attended. Luckily I checked my emails as this was booked for a special occasion. No excuse why, I think their customer service is very poor.
