"Having stopped in Bourton on the Water and thought I would grab something to eat to save sorting something out later that evening. Having a quick scan on Tripadvisor I thought I would give Smiths a try. Entering I was given a choice of table so opted for one by the window to watch the world go by! I ordered the Smiths Classic Burger, Truffle and Parmesan Fries and thought I would give the Limoncello Spritz a try. Some reviews on here say that there is a wait for the food to arrive and yes there is and to me that is a good thing. If you have to wait it means that the food you have ordered is cooked freshly for you. The burger was well cooked and flavoursome with just the right amount of extras inside to make it something easy to pick up and eat. The truffle and parmesan fries again were very flavoursome. The Limoncello Spritz has a bold claim on the menu in saying that they make Limoncello better than the Italians but to me personally Sorrento Limoncello is superior but Smiths Spritz is still very drinkable. Family run and friendly had a nice conversation with Seb about other places locally to visit and with mum (sorry I didn’t catch your name) about how they came to Bourton and the history of the tea room to burger restaurant change. Yes there is a service charge, yes the mention it when paying and ask if that is ok. To me yes that is fine. Visit other restaurants (not cafes or fast food) and you’ll find that they also charge a service charge. Maybe it should be printed on the menu, maybe it shouldn’t. Everyone has their own opinion. Would I go back again? Would I go with friends? The answer to both of these questions is……. Yes without a doubt!"

"I buy a house in marlow and decided to give this place a try. I have eaten several paintings in the hand and flowers over the years and even the big ones met a few times. I decided to give this as Tuesday dinner. to make an attempt. it was empty, so sat at the bar. It was very confusing when four different people tried to be my waitress/wacherin and to fall over themselves with repeated questions. I ordered a great joy of crying. then I put my job for burger and fries, which the waiter asked if this was all, and I said yes, I saved myself for the banans dessert. then he began to persuade me to buy more items and take them away to eat bizarre tonight, but I ignored! the burger came in a “wrapper” all very mcdonalds takeaway on a tablet. I asked for ketchup and salt. the burger was nice and the chips good, but the bungalow was very, very soggy. the waiter asked how it was, and I just asked if the wrap is part of the cooking process when I was seized why the bungalow was not roasted? then he went on to explain how the wrapper is amazing to keep the heat in and went on to educate me as he takes the burger away and to his house in reading after the work and they are still hot! I am in a restaurant that has a belonging to michelin and a child lecturing me on takeaway food he gets free or on a discount! service was terrible and I stayed hanging for 15 minutes after my plate was deleted and finally the attention someone to order the banana cheesecake and coffee. what came was a one-way cup with cheesecake cream, biscuit and dried bananas on! I rejected it and asked for the bill. the managerin was extremely rude and with em and I went out that the experience was a total sweat. I later called by phone to discuss the above mentioned and ended with the same miserable woman who showed me to my chair and was rude with the bill. essentially there is a reason why this place seems to be empty when so many other places were bought in marlow city center on Tuesday. I will not waste my time at this place again, I was made to feel very involuntary and eating is filthy. I think it will soon be closed and reopened with a new concept because this does not deliver."

"We booked to come for our first anniversary based on a recommendation from others. Upon arrival were very disappointed to see only 2 vegetarian dishes available (one containing peanuts) however the owner was more than happy to explain the reasons why this is the case and even offered an additional meal that could be vegetarian, which was amazing. The drinks were absolutely spot on and the treacle bread was absolutely to die for. The owner even explained how he makes it and the process for it as well as bringing out his 3kg tub of product ready to be made. This alone was an unbelievable touch and we really appreciated the personal touch from him and the waitress as well, both were so happy to talk about the food; it is something you don't get in just any restaurant. Thank you so much for this. When the food came out (it didn't take long at all) it was absolutely outstanding. From the presentation to the flavours it was just everything we would have hoped for. Both dishes were superb. The puddings were also amazingly presented and were clearly made with love and care and not just frozen foods microwaved. The Baked Alaska was unreal! That takes some skill. The service was top notch and personable and we both found conversations with staff and owner to be really genuinely great and felt welcomed and valued. They even allowed us to have a different dessert off menu and barely charged us for it, which was just brilliant. Value for money is excellent when you compare to other similar places and found the overall cost to be exactly what we would expect. Blown away by this place and will come back again very soon!"

"I first came across Lush Bar Restaurant in Barnstaple during a holiday in October 2022. I had tried to quickly research somewhere that did a tasty Sunday roast and also allowed dogs and this place came up had decent reviews. On that first visit last year, I stopped by and asked if a table was available and was quickly accommodated at a large table inside near the window. I was clearly lucky on that day with there being a spare table. I ordered their vegetarian roast which came with the usual trimmings (roast potatoes, root vegetables and a large Yorkshire Pudding and extras to include green beans, cabbage and a generous portion of cauliflower cheese. As I am holiday again in the area, I had decided I would like to re visit and have Sunday roast here considering it was still offered. I popped in 2 days earlier to make a booking and was advised to book online and requested the lower bar area as this is the section that allows dog. I arrived 5 10 mins early today as like to be on time and was told there were no tables free despite having just accommodated another table of 2 with a dog in that section (they had not booked). I explained once again that I had booked the lower bar area and was happy to wait for the time slot booked, the front of house lady checked my booking details and asked me to wait. I saw her asking another table of 2 to move to the restaurant area so that I could be given their table which was in the section I had booked. Therefore the initial experience on this repeat visit was not ideal or friendly service from front of house lady. I ordered the veggie roast again which I enjoyed but not as much as last time. The actual nut roast lacked flavour, the potatoes was over done and not as soft inside, less veggie gravy provided (probably could have tried to ask for me) and reduced portion size for the cauliflower cheese. This is clear from the photos from last years visit when compared to today. On this visit I also stayed for a dessert and chose the Lush brownie this was a nice choice and was not only well presented but tasty. Getting the bill today required having to ask twice so service was not ideal today but would still consider choosing Lush next time. I think customers who have booked should not be left feeling they are being turned away."

"Bank Holiday Monday in Stamford. Most places are shut, and the town is a lot quiter than usual... My wife is MADLY hungry, and insists we choose somewhere QUICKLY (this isn 't a request! , so we head into the very first place we come across No1 Kitchen. We 'd glanced at the menu on the way in, but our only real concern was that it was open, and it had food. A very friendly waitress showed us to our table, in a lovely corner spot, and I availed myself of the facilities, which were spacious and pristinely clean (something of a 'yardstick ' for us in terms of a well looked after restaurant... The waitress was soon back for our drinks order, and once she 'd delivered our Cokes we went for the Hot and Spicy Burger, with twisty fries, and a Mediterranean Lamb Burger, with corn on the cob. This too arrived promptly, with various Heinz condiments, and everything was hot and fresh! Both burgers were utterly SPLENDID, and we agreed they were The Real Thing, and particulary suited to discerning adults. There were PLENTY of twisty fries, which were crispy, well presented, and nicely seasoned. The burgers were deceptively filling, and my wife couldn 't quite manage hers, but even whilst eating we were planning our next visit, to try out other burger options. Overall, this was nothing short of a Perfect Lunchtime Visit, and we 'd enthusiastically recommend it to other burger lovers! Even if I tried my hardest, there was absolutely NOTHING to fault about this gorgeous restaurant, and we 're amazed to have never seen/visited before. It won 't be long before we put this right..."
