Excellent food, ambience, wine, service and centrality for The Theatre Royal (our destination at 19:30). The Chancel was able to accommodate our early dining requirement, whereas competing restaurants wouldn’t! Thanks The Chancel for a fabulous dinner and start to the weekend!

Food was very good as was the service.A little disappointed that they had a small selection of beer , all bottled. But that should not detract from a very enjoyable experience.

Fantastic service, only problem is that we ordered a bottle of shiraz at around £18 which you didn't have so we were offered a different bottle but not told the price which we found out at the end of the meal cost around £23. We thought if you didn't have the bottle we ordered, it would be the same price of the bottle that we originally ordered.

We enjoyed a lovely beetroot and feta salad as part of our three course pre theatre supper. Tried the recommended red wine a Tempranillo I think. Attentive and friendly staff. Love it.

I booked the table in advance. As soon as we arrived we were approached for our order & twice more within a short time although to be fair we did say come back in 10 minutes - but we hadn't seen each other for 3 years so hadn't looked at the menu so the repeat trips to take the order wasn't conducive to a relaxed atmosphere. Then we asked twice for a jug of tap water but on each occasion were only given a glass full each. Also we had to ask for a cooler for the remainder of the carafe of wine we ordered, which should have been provided. Then a cooler was bought up with the remnants of melted ice cubes in which was disappointing. I ordered the pear, walnut & blue cheese salad - but there were no walnuts in it with no explanation given! Then a large pretty noisy group arrived & were sitting opposite us on a long table. This was still relatively early at 6 p.m so we decided to leave & have coffees elsewhere. Overall not a great experience.

We love the Chancel. It never fails to deliver on service and food. The wine is pretty good too! Probably our favourite restaurant in Plymouth. Everyone in our party had a clean plate for every course (and we all had 3 ) and then had coffee and brandy after.

We went as a party of three before a film at 6:00pm. As always, the service was attentive and efficient. I had my favourite, the fish stew, delicious. My husband had the smoked beef goulash which he said was delicious. Our daughter had seafood pasta, which she was also delighted with. The puddings we had were amazing, chocolate pannacotta. A lovely experience.
