Chancel

We really enjoyed the meal , service was a little slow in between coarse, but all together had a lovely evening. Will be returning soon

Food and service absolutely stunning. Been a few times now and we are never disappointed. Setting is cosy and intimate, food is always superb and the staff are so welcoming. Mine and my partner's new favourite place xx

This was our first visit to Chancel which we found to be a very pleasant evening from start to end. All staff were attentive and the place was busy which gave a nice ambiance. Food was delicious and when we ordered our chosen dishes it was explained that there would be a minimum waiting time on some of the choices which again we thought was good customer service. We will most definitely be going back and enjoying tasting more dishes from the menu in the future.

Food consistently good here. Great friendly staff. This is probably my favourite restaurant in Plymouth. Reasonable prices and great wine list. Always made to feel welcome

Our favourite place to eat in Plymouth, never had a bad meal or experience. We love their tapas and steaks. It's a small place but doesn't feel cramped, and has a large selection of wines for those interested.

Superb food! I booked a table at the chancel for 6 food lovers and we all had an amazing meal and great service in a warm and friendly environment. I visited the chancel for the first time about 4 years ago and loved it, still love it today. A real hidden gem. Overall fantastic would highly recommend.

Fantastic food, lovely house wine (very reasonably priced) and super service. We will definitely be back. Wish we’d discovered this great little place sooner. We shared an antipasti starter and then had the delicious duck and the fillet steak valdostana. Faultless.

The standard has been maintained with good service. The menu could do with a change but if it works for the Chancel then fine. The wine list is a real plus.

Good food served by very friendly staff. We have enjoyed meals at this restaurant for several years, and never been disappointed. Will being going again in the near future.

* a great lunch for three * accepted a GROUP-ON without quibbling * lovely tender pork dish * beautifully presented * delightful waitress * will be visiting there again

Friendly staff, good atmosphere and great food! Would definitely return to the Chancel. Also a good choice for gluten free diners. Looking forward to trying the tapas.

My husband and I enjoyed our meal and the bistro has a lovely ambiance. Because we used a Groupon we had a limited choice for mains but enjoyed what we had. I think I would have liked more vegetables on my plate and less reliance on chips and mashed potatoes but overall very nice food.

Cosy little bistro that doesn't let itself get over booked, therefore ensuring friendly yet professional service throughout. Food was of a high quality and prices were very competitive compared to other similar sized establishments in Plymouth. I'd definitely recommend this place and will be going back again.

Extremely tasty tapas; helpful staff. Had to waits 40 mins for the food which I feel was rather too long. Overall a good place to have lunch and will be going again.

The food was tasty well cooked and well presented. The service was prompt,friendly and helpful. Good range of menu and drinks choices. We would eat here again thank you.

Staff were friendly but the food was overpriced in terms of quality. They served us salad levels which had turned brown and vegetables were overcooked. Raspberry cheesecake had strange texture. Had three dishes and didn't particularly enjoy any of them.

Excellent, as always, the food, atmosphere, service, wine, company, ambiance, well everything really. We always enjoy our evening out at the Chancel, it is a real treat.

Food was excellent as always - best calamari I have ever eaten. Staff were very friendly as they always are. Would definitely recommend this restaurant

This was our fourth visit to the Chancel, so yes we like it! Every visit has been superb, from the unforced friendly greeting on arrival through to the desert and coffee at the end of our meal. Cheerful service and freshly prepared, extremely well cooked food, what more can you ask for. Visit number five will not be long coming. Wish there were more places as good as this in Plymouth.

Superb, as usual. Delicious food, freshly cooked, and served by friendly staff.

The staff were friendly and helpful, my son received a birthday card - the food was well prepared, presented and delicious. Thank you for a great night.

We had an EXCELLENT time! The service was great, the staff were so friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious! We have been many times before, and The Chancel never disappoints!

Once again another fabulous meal with excellent service, busy at Xmas but still served on time, lovely staff and great food, will be back again soon!

Have eaten at The Chancel many times over the years and our experience has always been great. Lovely relaxed atmosphere, delicious food, great wine and excellent service. Highly recommended 😁👍

An excellent venue with great food and friendly service. Fresh produce cooked to order and a good wine selection. Close to city centre shops with a rustic atmosphere.

Very enjoyable lunch great service and wine was good too . Returning again very soon we love the atmosphere . One of my favourite places

My friend and I had tappas for lunch, varied selection suitable for non-meat eaters, very tasty, good sized portions, nice surroundings, will definitely go again soon.

Very good meal and service. Only point for improvement, if you serve chips/fries, I would have preferred proper hand cut chips rather than McDonalds type fries. In general really nice place to eat and the service was excellent.

This is a real gem of a restaurant with happy friendly staff, good service and a relaxed environment. The food we had was delicious but with 2 vegetarians in my party it would have been nice for them to have a wider choice of dishes, but what they had they throughly enjoyed. The only minor negative was that the chairs we were sat on were rather hard and uncomfortable so we took cushions from a nearby unoccupied table to pad our seats and happily carried on our meal.

Second time I’ve eaten at Chancel both time the food has been very well presented and cooked extremely well. didn’t have to wait very long for our orderss staff very friendly helpful and professional

Great atmosphere. Friendly, helpful staff. Main courses were delicious. Felt a little let down by the puddings which were good but not WOW like the main course. The toilets were "rustic".

The food was outstanding but had to wait 25 mins to see food menu cause there was a shortage of menus! Then was told we made the waitress cry cause we complained and pointed at her, I don’t think we were aggressive if anyway and if we were told about the 25 minute wait to see the menu when we came in it wouldn’t have been an issue

Everything on the menu looked good, and we both enjoyed the dishes we chose. The beef carpaccio with blue cheese sauce was great. Will definitely go back in the future.

we had a great meal with great service with all four members of our party having a great time. We were not rushed by staff who were courteous and had a sense of humour

Fantastic food, fantastic wine and lovely staff. The atmosphere was lovely and the wait on food was not very long at all. Will definitely return

Great food, good flavours paired with good selection of wines. Friendly servers and although price was on the moderately higher side, generous portions. Will go for special occasions

Excellent food and friendly efficient service! I would certainly visit again. The menu was varied and the wine list was extensive and very good value.

Diverse menu, something for everyone. Great fish options. Fab wines. Relaxed friendly atmosphere. We sat downstairs so 'specials' were reeled off verbally by the waiter rather than being available to view and ponder. I found it hard to keep up with the choices that way. However so much on the standard menu to choose from anyway hard to complain. Everyone in our party enjoyed all of their courses. Would definitely return. Good choice of ales as well as wines. Great evening.

The restaurant hadn't got our Quandoo booking down in their paper diary. The food and service was very good and a good selection of GF food and other dietary requirements. We were a little unsettled by the incorrect bill on the night which nearly cost us an extra £120. We hope and believe it was a genuine error

Superb menu, perfectly cooked. Very friendly but professional staff. My in-laws said it was the best meal they have ever eaten and they were celebrating their 60th Wedding Anniversary.
