"I spoke here on Saturday night and that was my first visit to the north bank. everything was wrong. the drink at the bar with the very friendly and knowledgeable bar tender (he helped us to have a gin fantastic). once in the table, we were talked through the menu and guided how much we needed to order. the eating was before place. my friends was ribbed “one of the best he ever had” the manager in the service recommended a beautiful bottle wein. and it was reasonable. finished with the cornish cheese selection. all in all, a wonderful evening and I will be back! and will recommend friends."

"Promoted as offering a scenic riverside view and being a high-end dining experience, Northbank fails to live up to expectations."

"I had reservations about eating here as my first visit ten years earlier had been a disappointment but I should not have worried; this time around I was very impressed. The service was quick, very polite and unobtrusive; the ambiance of the dining room was very pleasant without their being too much noise and the temperature was fine. The food itself was beautifully presented and did not take too long to arrive. While I did not particularly like the taste of my linguine that was no reflection of the food itself but rather my not knowing exactly what I was going to get. It was cooked perfectly well and the portions were more than adequate. My friend very much enjoyed her meal and I suspect we will be back in the not too distance future. Thank you to all of the staff for a very lovely evening."

"This really is a lovely restaurant in a beautiful setting. The Sunday menu was interesting and of reasonable value and there is a good wine list. My wife choose the ham hock terrine and pork belly; I chose the chicken salad and sardines. I later added a side order of vegetables. The starters were of considerable size, well presented and very tasty. The pork belly was of similar size but there were too few sardines. The vegetables didn't arrive although we did get a side salad. I questioned this and was told that was all there was. It was unfortunate as most of the meal was very enjoyable. The New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc was excellent. We will return!"
