Visited for a catch-up with a friend and while the setting was lovely?warm lighting, relaxed vibe, and just enough buzz?the food didn?t deliver. Flavours were flat, and nothing on the plate felt worth the price tag. £29 for a bottle of prosecco that didn?t sparkle in taste or value? No thanks. I don?t mind paying more if the food?s better than what I make at home, but this wasn?t even close.
Service was friendly, and the atmosphere?s great for a drink and a chat?but if you?re hungry and hoping for a proper meal, you might want to look elsewhere.

Had the most amazing meal yesterday, me and my partner both chose the Buttermilk chicken curry and wow it did not disappoint, we both agreed it was one of the best curries we have had In a long time. The service was brilliant as always.

We visited as a party of five to celebrate a friend?s birthday. The staff were warm and attentive, and the atmosphere and location were excellent, creating a lovely setting for the evening.
Service was generally good, though there was an issue with the timing of the starters ? they were brought out at different times, which meant most of the table had finished before one guest received theirs. Once served, however, the starters were well received and enjoyed by everyone. I had the calamari, which was beautifully presented and paired with a sublime aioli dip.
For my main course, I chose the sirloin steak salad. The steak itself was tender and full of flavour, but the salad was disappointing, as it was both overly dressed and lacking in variety.
On a more positive note, the drinks were excellent and perfectly prepared. Overall, while there were some inconsistencies with the food and service, the welcoming staff, atmosphere, and drinks made it an enjoyable evening.

Service from the girls was outstanding! Really friendly and helpful, then the food was just as good to be fair, highly recommend this place. Reasonably priced for everything we had too

First time having Sunday lunch here but it's a favourite for any day of the week. Food was plentiful and delicious (tiny point it was warm rather than hot). Staff were lovely and The Brook Bistro remains one of my top restaurants to visit.

Brilliant bistro, fabulous food & warm welcome. Our first visit to this great restaurant but won?t be our last.
This was our first visit to this highly recommended restaurant and was well worth a visit. The staff were really welcoming from the start. The menu has plenty of delicious dishes from which to choose. We shared calamari, crispy pork belly bites & beef brisket croquettes for starters. For mains we had sirloin steak, tagliatelle, chicken & chorizo and a halibut. The empty plates spoke for themselves. Dessert was orange chocolate ganache. Totally scrumptious!

We had a lovely meal. Lovely atmosphere. Excellent service from Bethany our waitress who was very friendly and attentive. Our son was celebrating his birthday and had a fantastic time, with staff adding candles to his desert and singing happy birthday. This made a 10 year olds day. We will return.

Fantastic food and service! Definitely recommend the Sunday lunch menu. The outdoor dining is also a great choice, and the food, whilst a little on the pricey side, is VERY tasty. Only gripe is that whoever is curating the playlist needs to be replaced immediately, because the only situation where I'd want to listen to 2 hours of 2010s acoustic remixes is while messed up on ecstasy on a beach in Miami.

Wow! Highly recommend the breakfast to everyone! We?ve been here before for dinner and it?s always 10/10. We come this morning for breakfast and we were not disappointed. We had a few different things off the menus and it was all so good. The service is great and the atmosphere made my morning.
Any who visit the brook needs to have an amaretto sour. Hands down best drink I?ve had anywhere and it?s so drinkable leave room for at least 3.
Thank you guys. I?m sure we?ll be seeing you again very soon.

Lovely location. Nice food but why do they insist on serving your meal on a piece of slate?
