    Food was incredible! We had such a good time. The service was a tad slow but other than that, a perfect place to spend Valentine’s Day 💕

    Our favourite date night spot, we couldn’t go anywhere else on Valentine’s Day. The Volta Experience menu was perfectly curated, we were let full and happy. As our favourite plate (goats cheese and honey) wasn’t on the menu for 2, we requested a swap which was accepted with ease. Friendly staff who are very attentive and a perfect date night ambiance without it being too quiet where everyone can hear your conversation! We love Volta

    A really excellent Sunday roast. Beautifully tender beef and lots of veg. The most scrumptious sticky toffee pudding. Great service. I’d definitely recommend a visit and we’ll return
