    good quality food well presented. Short menu (which is good) but still managing to provide a good range of options for the dietary and taste needs of our group

    Sunday roast was not anything special, selection between chicken and beef only. Beef was very fatty, chicken was ok, but was most likely boiled chicken breast slightly browned up in oven, served as one piece and not sliced. Potatoes were not roast crispy potatoes either, they were boiled and deep fried. Wouldn’t recommend for Sunday roast.

    It was our first eating experience at The Braided Fig and we weren’t disappointed. The staff were friendly and attentive and the menu really inspiring. In fact it was tricky to only choose one starter, main and dessert each! We will definitely be back!

    Lovely restaurant, the tree in the centre is so unique! Great atmosphere, food was fantastic and the service was excellent! Had a great Valentine’s Day meal with a full menu unlike a lot of places who put on reduced menus. Will be back

    Lovely food, lovely service and will definitely be back. The only negative was that the restaurant was really cold but it was lunch time so maybe it takes a while to heat up... overall we had a lovely time x

    The food was Really nice - funny smell as i entered the restaurant like school dinner hall small thing but quite off putting. I ordered the Sunday lunch pork was amazing and the veg was perfect. Keep up the good work and make the place smell like your food.

    Beautiful food and great service. Would have been a 5, but it’s quite cold inside. Maybe need to turn the heating up a notch or 5!

    Another nice meal at The Braided Fig. Food and service was very good, as usual. Our only disappointment was there were no yorkshire puddings with our sunday roast. We will be back.

    Such a lovely restaurant with really nice staff and amazing food. Had a roast dinner with a few glasses of wine and then sat in the bar area, what a lovely way to spend our Sunday afternoon.

    Quiet when we went in and service was good, however as it got busier service levels fell. We waited over half an hour for the sweet menu and coffees, but they no one brought them. We got fed up so got bill and left. If service charge of £7 had not been included we would not have left a tip.

    Food was lovely but I think some of the waitresses need a little bit more training. They were nice and some extra training would make all the difference.
