Loved this spot while I was traveling over in the UK! We were craving fish and chips and while this…read moreisn't the typical spot that comes to mind, I'm glad we stopped in. It's a bit difficult to find upstairs but it's well appointed and the view of the castle is pretty legit. We tried a couple of apps, both of which were good but the fish and chips were dialed in! Extra crispy chips and nice big piece of fish were complimented by classic mushy peas and a house made tartar sauce. The service was impeccable to top things off. If you are in the area, you should definitely add this to the list of places to try.

Great views and atmosphere can't make up for embarrassing, Aunt Bessie's quality roast…read more Came to The Ivy expecting a refined Sunday roast, but left wondering if I'd accidentally paid £29 for something reheated from the freezer aisle. The roast potatoes were dry, dense, and suspiciously uniform, Aunt Bessie's on an off day. Yorkshire puddings were flavourless and hollow, with that telltale mass-produced texture. Vegetables were minimal and uninspired. The lamb was unseasoned and tough. For a restaurant with The Ivy's name and reputation, this felt rushed, joyless, and deeply underwhelming. No real flavour payoff, and no sign that anyone in the kitchen had any pride in the food they send out. Feels all the more jarring given how beautiful the setting is. This was less "elegant brasserie" and more "supermarket ready-meal with better lighting". I wouldn't return for the roast -- and I wouldn't recommend it.

The owner Dan Cameron was previously Head Chef at The Navigation Inn. We had considered trying his…read moreup-market restaurant at the Navigation, but we never found the menu very appealing. The recently opened Brasserie menu seemed better value and more generally appealing. The location is good, in the yard behind Odell's hardware store. In addition the main restaurant area there is some outside seating in the paved yard area. Shortly after we arrived we benefitted from someone from the kitchen, presumably the owner, swearing to his staff asking them if they'd asked the customers if they had used the car park. We gather their had been a problem with a customer leaving their car late, at which point the car park is locked. Whilst we may have benefitted from the warning about the car park, we didn't appreciate the language and it got the evening off to a bad start. The meal started with a complimentary amuse-bouche: cold courgette with some herbs and spice sprinkled on top and a small flower. Unfortunate the soup, and the heavy home-made roll that it was served with, were both disappointing. Our first course was Brie Parcels (£6) which had rather soggy pastry and a very over-dressed salad and scallops with cod cheeks (£9) which was much more successful. The mains were a cap rump steak (£18), which was nicely cooked with triple-cooked chips, and a double cooked pork dish (£11) was nice, but rather dry in the middle: the accompanying sauce was good, but unfortunately there wasn't enough of it. Puddings (£7) included a rather nice soufflé, but the pastry on a pear frangipan was thin at one end, thick at the other and very chewy. Overall it was a disappointment, which seems a shame: some elements were very good, but the food was disappointing in places and at these prices that shouldn't be the case. We'll probably come and try it again in 6-12 months time, and hope it has got into its stride.

I have been here twice with friends for lunch, both times with vouchers from groupon, both times we…read morereceived reasonable service, the restaurant is crisp and comfortable, the food however is divine. First time I have a take in roast pork dinner, with a root vegetable purée I just wish there was more if, the second time I had fillet steak cooked to perfection so the knife glided through. Will defiantly return.
