Confused if voucher bought 2 or 3 courses. 1st course OK but main Mushroom Rissotto ruined by tough salad leaves added to the dish. No flavour of mushrooms. Food well over priced.

A limited lunch time menu but we were all pleased with our selections. I thought the beer, wine & coffee expensive. Charming waitress looked after us very well. Food was hot & well presented. Car parking difficult. I will certainly go again.

The terms of the Meerkat Meals 2 for 1 offer were unclear to the customer and not understood by the staff. We were led to believe we would have a wider selection, but were limited to the cheapest, 2 course set menu. Waiter almost did not accept use of the voucher as he did not recognise it. Accidentally overcharged us for the more expensive menu, despite only being offered the cheapest while using the deal. Very very disappointing as I have previously had a very different experience here using the exact same offer. Felt as though they saw us coming..!

Beautiful setting and gorgeous food! Restored church with stained glass windows and other features kept blended with the needs of the restaurant. Friendly and professional staff and, with a Groupon offer, cost effective. Would come again.

Food was really nice and service was okay. Me and my partner went on Valentine’s Day and we were made to order from a set menu which came to over £100 without drinks. Don’t get me wrong the food was good but the price was just crazy!

Service was extremely good. Food was very tasty, my only negative was my starter wasn’t very warm. Also the atmosphere was a bit quiet as th restaurant wasn’t very full. The surroundings were beautiful and I would definitely give it another try.

Beautiful place but sadly we did not have a good experience. My dad ordered the rump steak and specifically asked to no have the peppercorn sauce. We were told it came on the side. It didn’t. It was smothered all over the steak. We sent it back and asked for another steak. It came out within minutes on a boiling hot plate- as if it had been microwaved. We suspected it was the same steak. We asked and it was. I think that’s a disgrace. This is not a cheap restaurant and we asked not to have the sauce. To bring out the same steak that they had wiped clean and microwaved is not acceptable. Unfortunately the dessert was also very poor. The sticky toffee pudding was dry and dense like out of a tin. We didn’t eat it. Won’t be coming again. Very disappointing experience.

I found the menu very difficult. We are definitely not fussy eaters but we could not find anything to choose. We left the restaurant without ordering and went elsewhere.

Very good food. The roast beef was fantastic and portion size generous. Great service and very reasonably priced. Well worth a visit. I read reviews that it was cold inside but not on our visit. Very cosy even though it was only 2 degrees outside

Beautiful restaurant. Lovely waiting staff. But my meal was completely different to advertised - ordered duck with red cabbage and lentils, got duck with savoy and mashed potato. Sent it back but still didn't get what was on the menu. And i ended up eating 15 mins after my husband had finished his meal. A real disappointment.

I’m a vegetarian with a gluten intolerance, i booked plates and co for my birthday for 7 guests using the online booking service. On our arrival to Plates and Co we where told it was the steak night and they only have one vegetarian option that wasn’t gluten free. The waitress checked with the chef but there was no other option available. On returning back to the website to see where it stated it was steak night we could not find it until a third person checked on the website and happened to scroll right to the bottom on the page footer and there in small writing it stated Monday’s were steak night. We had no option but to find somewhere else to eat which was a shame as I have visited this restaurant before and really loved it hence why I booked it for my birthday, we all dressed up as the restaurant is fancier than most which left us feeling uncomfortable in the restaurant we ended up eating in as they could accommodate us. We also noticed that the website stated the set menu was £33pp but a poster in the restaurant stated £35pp. I dislike leaving negative feed back but I was left feeling really stupid and gutted on my birthday which wasn’t pleasant.

Very friendly staffs, good quality food and good portion. Ordered seafood dish but wasn't available at a time but offered alternative also nice. Good space between tables so you don't have to overhear somebody else conversation. Beautiful interior special windows as building itself use to be a church. Overall, very happy with visit will definitely return.
