The atmosphere, food and cocktails were awesome. Food was very reasonabley priced, drinks were a little expensive, but it's to be expected in a place like this. The only downside to the evening was the service. The staff were attentive when they took our first drinks order and food order, but after that, we had to hunt them down in order to get a drink. Throughout our dinner, we didn't have a drink at all. When they cleared the plates, they still did not ask to take a drinks order and we had to ask if we could order some. It was sometimes hard to even find a member of staff to ask. Very poor service.

Our afternoon tea was lovely, although I think the brownies were undercooked, they were very soggy, fell apart raw in the middle. Other than that the place is lovely, the staff are lovely and all the other food was lovely

Great little place with extremely helpful staff however, the food was slightly pricey especially for the afternoon tea which was nearly £40 just for two people!

Again, back here as it's a lovely place. Atmosphere is great and good lovely. The only gripe I have are the lack of plates for burgers. A tiny wooden board isn't easy to eat from...

The setting of Curios Manor is very quirky and therefore makes for a very unusual but pleasant atmosphere for a meal out. I went with my boyfriend on a Saturday night and my only criticism would be that by the time we were shown to our table at 20:30, the music was very loud and set up more for people coming in just for drinks rather than those dining. The food itself was great: my boyfriend and I shared a few starters tapas style and both had burgers for mains and I couldn't fault the food at all. The only problem was that by the time we were ready to order pudding (~22:00), we were told that we could only have items in the main fridge as the kitchens were no longer serving. While we both enjoyed our puddings, there were only a few options to choose from which is a shame because the pudding selection on the menu did look very good. Overall I couldn't fault the food, drinks or cocktails but if you are looking for a proper dining experience, it would probably be best to go reasonably early in the evening and maybe avoid the weekend as well.

Lovely food. However, the tiniest board to eat of burger off!!! Would much rather a plate! Don't really understand the obsession with eating off wooden boards....

Service was mixed. Some excellent but sadly one member of staff quite rude. On the night of the visit where we were in the restaurant was also quite chilly. However we have been many times before and really enjoyed it. Food was good.

Food was overpriced for the portion size. Staff were unhelpful and felt that clearly a table was more important than taking an order. Nice place but probably won't go again.

Food and drink good. Service was very slow and let the resturant down, it took 25mins before someone even came to take a drinks order and it was not busy, once food was ordered food came quick and was fresh and delicious. Shame about the service as it would have been a great experience and would have got a much higher score.

Birthday afternoon tea booked. We states on ordering due to having other drinks we would wait for the drinks to come with exception of one tea...this did not happen. Eventually tea arrived, seemingly tea doesn't come with milk so we had to ask who I seemed to be an issue. No checks and table not cleared. Staff didn't seem bothered about us at all, very disappointed to say the least. On departure still not asked if everything was ok.
