"The Soak is the restaurant of the beautiful Grade II listed railway hotel, The Clermont Victoria. Completely refurbished post covid the result is a very elegant and classy espace. The deco is 5*, it feels grand but relaxed at the same time. High ceilings wonderfully detailed in white, contrast with the rich grey of the walls and columns. Rich blue velvet seats, darker leather, light grey marble tables to the sides and dark wooden in the center with curved seating and beautiful globular lights. All very stylish. The food is good but not great. I had the posh prawn cocktail, rib eye and black forest brownie. The steak probably the weakest. The staff are great though and service very attentive. All in all, a beautiful restaurant with great staff and service. The food is ok but I expected a bit more."
