Overall a great experience, only reason it’s not a 6 is because we had to ask three times for ice for our water- a tiny thing but significant when the weather is 30 degrees.

Positives first: The place is good, the music is okay (kind of easy going background music, maybe a little bit too loud), we were able to change our table to one next to the window and that was one of few good things about it. Other was the drinks, my IPA was really good and my wife enjoyed her ginger and lemon tea as well. Negatives: food was bland. Nicely presented, but really lacking in flavour (salt and pepper, anyone?), my wife's buttermilk chicken was slightly on the burned side tasting bitter. My burger was interesting (el bandito) but the meat was not seasoned at all and to make things worse the French fries were oil-heavy (same goes for the chicken actually). I guess it's a decent place to come for a drink, we have been swayed with how the food looked on TA and decided to go to celebrate our anniversary and left thinking we could have gone elsewhere and enjoyed it a bit more.

Couldn’t hear ourselves think let alone speak because the music was too loud, couldn’t wait to eat our food and get out. Food average, not much choice. What the butler saw cocktail not as good as browns in Mansfield.

Lovely food and great alternative atmosphere. A definite recommendation if in Nottingham and looking for something different to do! Also helpful and warm staff to greet you and take you to your table in the ‘VIP’ area if you have booked, which was a special touch to the place.

ok but customer service wasn't brilliant. we asked if we could sit by the window as my view was of the kitchen! even though the table was empty the waitress said no. no drinks offered other than the tea and coffee so had to ask for those. I would have preferred to be offered a drink with my sandwiches then had my coffee with my sweet cakes. it was ok for a Groupon but won't go back again.

Food was great, however there was very little service, I had to go to the bar to get a desert order as well as chase my drink (twice). I had requested to be in the back area, however we were given a table at the front next to the lift and stairs so it was very busy. The DJ was fab but it was exceptionally loud, a nice relaxed dinner it was not.

I have been to Curious Manor a few times and this time, unfortunately, was disappointed. Our food took approximately 45 minutes to arrive (we were given a free bottle of prosseco) but then one of our party was brought the wrong meal, then she had to wait even longer. The food was OK but when we asked for the bill, again, took a long time, so we had to ask three times in total! Disappointed.

Service not great. Didn’t get a very good table. Food was pretty tasteless. Wife’s burger was burnt on one side. When we pointed this out to the waitress she didn’t care. Wouldn’t use the place again.

The place is fabulous. However, the music was far too loud for a tea time meal. Conversation for our party was nigh on impossible. I had the BLT Burger (chicken) which was gorgeous. My husband had fish and chips which were not of the standard expected - soggy wet fish not crispy batter as it should have been. Staff were very pleasant and accommodating. The service was impeccable.

Not enough staff, I had to wait a long time for food and never got asked if we wanted another drink. Then wasn’t given an itemised bill so not sure if I paid too much but was in a rush to get to a show, had to pay at the bar till as we couldnt find the waitress to ask for the bill. We were there 2 hours.

Great atmosphere, though I was confused at the entrance now since work has been done since the last time we visited. The afternoon tea had more than enough food for two people, we couldn't eat it all so we've had yo bring it home.

The variety of the food was very basic considering our group was diverse and many of us didn’t eat meat or pork and subsequently, the majority of the food we were then allowed to eat was very limited and simplistic. Although one of the waiters was very nice, the other was slightly rude and it ruined the mood for our meal. I don’t think I would recommend this restaurant to anyone especially as the price doesn’t reflect the quality.
