    Food good but not exceptional, service a bit hit and miss. Noisy restaurant with tables too close together

    Service was terrible, the staff had no idea about the menu. We kept having to ask for tap water and for our wine to be topped up. They told us they needed the table back after we had asked for the bill twice. Bill was incorrect. Appreciate they are busy at Christmas, but would have expected better service for a ‘high end’ Sunday toast establishment.

    Sunday lunch, queue to get in, made stressful by entitled people trying to skip queue, despite being told we all had reservations. . Service was efficient but didn’t really interact with us, we needed to order a vegetable dish and this should have been suggested. Food was nice but £170 for two, without a bottle of wine, and no starter I would expect it to be very good indeed.

    Awful, awful, awful. Don’t book for a 12pm lunch or you’ll be out by 12:30pm. Completely rushed service, with our cocktails not coming out until the main. We had to cancel our bottle of wine because there was no time to drink it. I have never had a starter come out within 5 mins of ordering, and then a full roast dinner and beef wellington 5 mins after that. Felt like a carvery, with reheated food. The food was cold and had to be sent back. Excuse was they can’t predict the tables. Manager less than accommodating and was extremely unhelpful. Really disappointed as we booked weeks in advance and ruined a potentially lovely anniversary meal.

    A bad start left standing in front of reception for a while before anyone looked up to see a queue had formed. The beef croquette starter was cold and the main took so long to arrive after that we were bored. The food was ok but the wait staff were rude were all evening, almost slamming the plates down each time. Seated next to the very busy wait station felt like we were being crowded and looked over all evening and it seemed to take around 8 staff 15 minutes to make up the table behind us which was hugely distracting. Not a relaxing evening and for the cost of the food here, the overall experience was poor. Would not dine here again.

    Thoroughly enjoyed a Christmas meal at Roast with friends on Saturday night. It was beautifully decorated and buzzing with a great atmosphere. The service was a bit patchy because it was so busy but not terrible. Food was good but nothing stood out to me as amazing. A good time was had by all.

    My first time at Roast after hearing so many good recommendations about it. Great service from our waiter Joe, who went out of his way for us. Amazing food, wine and most of all atmosphere, we will be back again soon with the whole family.

    My Wife and I enjoyed a Christmas dinner at the Roast, just an off the cuff moment. The atmosphere was alive, well decorated and staff are super friendly. The food was very nice, we started with the Salmon sharing platter which was generous and then the turkey dinner. Just a few small niggles, the salmon came with plain white bread which was a little odd and when I requested extra gravy, it came closer to the end of the meal, which made it redundant. The only thing was the cost, I thought it was a little on the pricey side. However it is the Roast and it's prime location, so you can be forgiven for spending a few extra pounds. Still worth the trip, will be back soon.

    Disappointing, not been since last Christmas and the standard has plummeted. Beef croquette starters were cold and sent back. They were replaced and still cold. Mains were 100 day aged beef which was stone cold. Roast potato’s were superb and hot, cauliflower cheese was average, little to no truffle on it, veg included this year was a single carrot. Gravy was very tasty. Good ingredients, cooked well but badly plated up and served. Very poor value for money given the issues. Won’t go going back which is a shame as have really enjoyed to food over the years
