Food was good but service not so, drinks order forgotten, overcharged on bill with wrong drinks, staff attentiveness was generally poor, we have been several times before with a great experience and came with friends this time as we had recommended it and we were all a little disappointed

We chose from the set menu and the food was delicious, including lovely Al dente vegetables. Two course for £30 seems a little high as the Al La carte menu lists fish and chips for £14.50. However, the quality was good. We chose the fruits of the forest fumble which was fabulous, but very rich and was actually too big! The staff were lovely but could have been a little more attentive..

Fantastic birthday meal, really appreciated the extra efforts to make it special - such as seating us in the little booth and organising my request of prosecco on arrival. The food was absolutely amazing, we both had burgers and the staff accommodated some changes as well. Lovely atmosphere especially on a Monday!

A nice venue, service was very efficient and friendly and the food we ordered arrived quickly and was very nice. We did find the music a little bit loud and it made it a bit difficult to hear each other when we were chatting. Other than that we had a an enjoyable experience.

I’d always considered Brazz to be a place for more finer dining in the evenings as well as a good bar and lunch eatery. Upon our arrival however there was no place where you would ‘wait to be seated’. This resulted in us awkwardly waiting around trying to get one of the waitresses attention until one signalled from across the room, where we would be sitting. There was no “let me show you to your seat”. So not a great start. Luckily after this the service picked up and once we’d received our first course I remembered why we’ve come to Brazz before. The food. The chefs are true professionals.

Returned to Brazz after a few months absence for our Wedding Anniversary meal Service good Food probably even better than our last visit Made more memorable by a decorated Anniversary plate with large sparkler !! Only downside was the introduction of a new parking system outside the hotel … spent first 15 minutes downloading the NCP App, good job it wasn’t a first date !!

Had to call waitress over to order. Otherwise service was good. Food underwhelming, under seasoned. Dessert (torte) was grainy and soggy. Shame but the equality of the dishes are so inconsistent here at Brazz - guess it depends on the chef of the day.

Fabulous is all I can say really - amazing food, service and very sensible pricing. Hosts could not do enough for you, I even, at short notice, mentioned it was for a birthday and they pulled all the stops out for our lunch time meal. Thank you so so much for an excellent experience.

Fantastic food and wine on a quiet Wednesday evening which wasn’t a problem for us. Very good service. The food was the star of the show. It was extremely good and we are benchmarking against a lot of restaurants in Europe and N America.
