"TL;DR: Not worthy of the Bib Gourmand designation I was very disappointed with Salt Yard. We ordered five items and had mixed feelings about the food. Having been to a few other Bib Gourmand rated restaurants, I had high expectations going in. Our order was as follows: Courgette Flower, Slow-cooked Loch Duart Salmon, Burrata, Octopus the Pork Belly. Of the five items the Courgette Flower and Burrata were my favorites. Both dishes were quite nice, although I felt that they were a bit heavy with the honey on the Courgette Flower. The salmon was also good. The last two dishes, the octopus and pork belly, were disappointing. The octopus was overdone to the point that part of the tentacle was hard and dry. The octopus also wasn't very tender. As for the pork belly, I knew I was in trouble when I had to ask the server for a steak knife to try and cut through the skin. And I do mean try because the steak knife couldn't even cut all the way through. The pork was also tough. Service was a bit off the mark as well. I didn't appreciate that they charged for water even if you order still. This fact wasn't brought to our attention when the server asked what kind of water we wanted. There is also a 12.5% service charge which wasn't made clear at the onset of the meal. All in all, Salt Yard underwhelmed."

"Only a member of the bar staff for lunch service. We had to search our own menus. The barman was friendly and helpful, but overstretched. The wine list is economical and criminal about price for quality. The French Sauvignon blanc ran on our order of a second bottle. The replacement, we were told, was “even the same price”. The first bottle was £25 the replacement was £55! This seems to be the definition of “roughly the same”. We chose some snacks. These were edible, but far away from exciting freezer to friteuse. I suggest you go to your next Wetherspoons instead of Jamies for better service, better food and much, much better value."

"Famous for its all-day breakfasts, I was delighted to be invited to this restaurant by a friend. We visited on a Sunday and it was packed. We managed to snag the last available table and noticed that others had to wait for at least thirty minutes to be seated. A quick glance at the menu revealed that they offer a unique twist on classic breakfast dishes. Personally, I appreciate the variety as I often find myself bored with the same options on every breakfast/brunch menu in town."

"During our lunch service, we only had one member of the bar staff available. We had to find our own menus as a result. The bartender was friendly and helpful, but clearly overwhelmed. The wine list was reasonably priced, but the quality did not match the high prices. When we ordered a second bottle of French sauvignon blanc, they ran out and offered us a replacement at the same price. However, the replacement bottle ended up being £55, significantly more expensive than the original £25 bottle. The snacks we ordered were edible but lacked any excitement, tasting like typical frozen food that had been deep-fried. I recommend going to a Wetherspoons for better service, dining experience, and overall better value compared to this restaurant."

"Nice meal, good value early doors menu. Not loud, so it was great for our girlie to come up. One of our parties is deaf and we had no problems with her, not able to join in our conversation."

"Took advantage of 'Tinternet Tuesday ' offer, 50% off all food, without any reduction in quality or portion size. The food was well prepared and presented and tasted delicious. The service from 'Dan ' was quick and efficient and delivered in an extremely pleasant and friendly manner. Overall avery pkeasant dining experience"

"I had a wonderful dining experience with friends before attending a show at The SSE Hydro, despite booking last minute. I highly recommend starting with the antipasti, which offers a great selection of cheese and meats, as well as the delicious Arancini. For the main course, I had the lamb with risotto and marrow bone, and the lamb was incredibly tender and flavorful. Two of my friends were able to order a half size portion of the ragu, which was still quite generous for a main. We also enjoyed some lovely wine and the delicious rose prosecco. The service was top-notch and we never felt rushed. The restaurant is in a fantastic location and I would definitely return when in this area again."

"We never made it after a staff member called me to tell me they were fully booked and that we would have to sit outside and have our dinner after it had been snowing that day! That was 4hrs before we were due to arrive. Not a good first impression for this restaurant I have been wanting to try for so long....shame."

"for the first time at bills and will definitely visit again. wide selection of menu options and wide selection of courses. we started starting from nachos and dips plus humus. super tasty without spicy surprises. main dish choice was buttermilk huh burger, which came with sweet potatoes, which again very tasty and crispy. the burger was very generous and the huh perfectly cooked and tasteful. this choice was £11.95 and worth every penny. we had a nice waiter who was very helpful and felt appreciated customers. highly recommended and buy a bottle bills elderflower presse. great."

"Brunch aside, which is usually quite good (like the coffee in Tusk! The food here is usually average. BUT service was very courteous and friendly, cocktails were great, and the Sharing Board is a safe option for sociable food with friends if you want to sit somewhere and pick up for an evening on the bog for a few hours. Food could and should be better, but it is still a decent option if you stay on the more basic options. In addition, they are switched on to nutritional requirements such as GF with a special GF menu on request and GF bread pizza options etc."

"Visited with a large group of family. The staff were all excellent, polite and swift. They took my gluten allergy seriously and announced each dish as gluten free which was really reassuring. The children’s meals were great and brilliant value. The place was spotless inside and so were the toilets. The roast beef was to die for and everyone enjoyed their meals. The only thing I’d say would give it 100% for me would be to get a bit extra on the roast dinner plate for gluten free, as you miss out on yorkies which looked great and cauliflower cheese. Or in a perfect world, could they make a GF version?! It’s so easy to substitute gluten free flour in cheese sauce and I make and free GF yorkies to use as and when. Otherwise I’d give this place top marks, excellent for a meal."

"What a delight! First time to this branch. I travel a lot and often have to dine solo which I don't mind. Some restaurants single you out but Côte Brasserie are very welcoming to all guests. Despite how busy they were on a Saturday evening, I was warmly greeted upon arriving, seated at a nice table and had excellent service throughout. Staff were attentive, yet left guests to dine in peace and enjoy their meal. I am a big fan of customer service. I have just come back from Japan where service is outstanding. I always find in the UK, we are one of the worse for service. However, Côte Brasserie is starting to make me have faith again. Well done! Great menu of French classics but there are other options too including steaks and salads. Hearty but good food. Calories and nutritional information are displayed on the menu which is helpful. I had the vegan Côte burger which came with frites. Freshly made, well presented and delicious. Messy to eat but so good. My Saturday treat! I actually felt shy when I fully cleaned up my plate but I was hungry and was looking forward to a burger. It delivered. I had a still water to drink so I was a bit healthy! Lovely branch with mainly indoor seating, plus a few tables outside. Lovely ambience and nice views too. They are busy given location so book a table. A lot of people were turned away or had to come back. Clean. Dessert looked good but I was stuffed. What Côte have also done well is not put up prices too much, especially in comparison to competitors. Very reasonably priced. Highly recommend."

"After dining at this restaurant multiple times, I made a reservation for dinner with three friends and was extremely let down by the decline in quality. The cocktails lacked flavor, the wine was tasteless, and all the food was overly salty. The lemon sole was overcooked, the butter sauce tasted burnt instead of nutty. The aubergine main dish was small and lacked flavor, more suitable as a starter. The halloumi main was bland and the sole goujons were lukewarm at best. The dessert, rhubarb frangipane, tasted like a subpar Bakewell tart with minimal rhubarb, and the Balthazar coupe was overly sweet. At a price of £270, this meal was far too expensive for the subpar quality. I am unsure if there has been a change in management at this restaurant, but I was truly disappointed and embarrassed to have recommended it to my friends. I will not be returning or suggesting this restaurant to others in the future."

"5 but should be 6! I was recently over night and got the room sun cove! it was stunning! finished to a seriously high standard, incredible decor, free cocktails make kit, fresh ground coffee, huge in room bathroom and an amazing shower room can make them a car in and prosecco and beer delivered on the room on ice! the personal was fantastic, courtesy and punctual, really went beyond and beyond to make sure we were comfortable! only had breakfast, but that was great! right sausage, not cheap meats offer most hotels, big coffee and a great variety! return is certainly recommended on the cards!"

"the lunch had been booked to meet with a friend. the employees were very attentive and in court we were allowed to see the menu and preorder the food while we were chatting in the bar area. we were called to the table and the service was very professional and fast, with the additional incentive that the waitress also took a drink order. I chose the gammon and my friend the fish, but regrettably both were meal tepid and my friend had to send the fertilizers to be heated again as they were very cold. the waitress replaced the items, but the size of the chips made them unpalatable as they did not seem to be thoroughly cooked. I am noticeable that there were high-time preparations, but we (and a second couple) were the only in the restaurant the staff was very professional, but the meal was disappointing my friend ordered a sweet as extra, as she remained hungry the sweet was fantastic. I will eventually return to the din, but the first impression was not the best way to spend a afternoon, their"

"after months of work from home, I returned this week to the office and went for a quick lunch I missed. it was such a nice surprise when the kalamari arrived: the best I ever had. they were plentiful, fresh, very crispy, delicious and a great garlic sauce. it was a beautiful sunny and warm day and I could sit outside. the waiter took my name and my number on the track and track. it felt very well organized and safe."

"We love PingPong; however this location disappointed us greatly. Starting from, we booked table for business meeting, hence, expected vibrant but not village market noice. Moving onto, very small restaurant space making it feel like bistro in suburb alley rather than London. In addition, I do understand we are in redundancy period, economically unpleasant times, however, this Saturday Brunch eat and drink all you can for 90min. gives impression,of yet again, low rationale place and invites very loud, dissorganised crowd rushing to fill their tummies asap. Again, very dissapointed of this particular branch, because any other PingPong is great, high standard and 5* quality restaurant. Also, we had to leave, and choose other door, more quiet place to eat and have a conversation. I wish you to step up. Thanks."

"A very disappointing experience. The menu on the web site is nothing like the menu you are given at the table. The menu is extremely limited and poor. The meal is not value for money as you are charged for all the extras, such as chips etc on top of the mail item. This restaurant needs to look at the surroundings competition and adjust accordingly otherwise they will go out of business. I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone, very very poor hence the low star rating."

"either a curry or salate. I chose the salat when the curry was made with coriander. was super disappointed as the salat leaves only a few tiny pieces of beet root, 1 tomaten and a bit of gurke. 13 pounds for it! not what I call an salate, of course the cook does not know what a good salate is. I wouldn't go back here. the chips are also cooked in meat, so I had to have gluten-free chips that were cooked separately. as disappointing."
