The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Emersons Green South Gloucestershire South West

What a great and convenient adhoc work space. Great parking, facilities and refreshments. Plus free WiFi following registration. Friska staff are helpful and polite, the drinks, snack and lunch offer is very good and competitive in its pricing. Going to be a regular haunt for me, for sure.

We were out walking on a Friday afternoon and scurried into this community café because it had started to rain. We had dressed for moderately wet weather, but the wind was in our faces and thus better avoided. Besides the chance to have a sit-down, and a coffee, was too good to ignore. The community café here in Lyde Green is housed in the community centre and, being well-after lunch-time, it was not too busy. We ordered two medium sized Americano Coffee’s with hot milk from the pleasant waitress at the servery. The coffee arrived promptly and it was acceptably hot, but sadly it was not very strong. It lacked the rich bitter flavours that we particularly like when we have a coffee out. The cost was £2.75 per medium-sized cup, so it was about the going rate, but other local cafés provide a better, and stronger, cup of coffee.

Lovely food and varied menu, but the desserts were very slow, had to chase them up and then they arrived promptly. Needs to get a bit better organised as it was busy but not absolutely full.

We booked a 3 course meal with a lot of friends on 14/12/2024 , staff was amazing and friendly also food was really good and worth every penny definitely recommended to anyone who is thinking of going

We ate the two course Christmas menu at the Folly on Wednesday evening and had a mixed experience. The food ( Turkey Christmas dinner) was reasonably good. Nicely cooked and presented ( though why they topped it off with a Yorkshire Pudding I don’t know). It was a good size portion with a good selection of traditional veg, a reasonable portion of Turkey breast and all the trimmings. Can’t find fault with that. But why oh why run out of Cranberry sauce when you are offering a Christmas menu ? The sweets (puddings) were very good , looked good and tasted fine though the Sauce on my Christmas Pudding was a bit watery. The Christmas decorations weren’t very exciting and didn’t run to table decorations. The 4 crackers on our table didn’t get us very excited. I also didn’t think having a quizz whilst we were eating added much to the Christmas atmosphere.Had we known it was quiz night we would have chosen another date. However our biggest criticism was the cost . The food was a bit expensive but we were happy to pay that. But the cost of drinks was outrageous, especially the wine. And at that price we did expect clean wine glasses. Sadly several of the glasses on our table were stained and one still had lipstick on it. We had to ask for clean glasses. So in summary . A reasonable attempt at a Christmas dinner but it didn’t really come off. Can’t say we would recommend this venue. Sorry.
