    We spent one night at the Cave Hotel and we took the opportunity to dine there. We went for the tasting menu which was excellent across the board. Service was also very good.

    Fantastic food. The most gorgeous dishes served beautifully and complemented each other in a fantastic way. Highly recommend and we will definitely be back. The wine was glorious, great pairing with the food. Service was amazing, very attentive staff - particularly the tall male waiter with the dark curly / permed hair and the taller man in the bar - excellent staff members. Ambience and lighting was great. Overall, the food made the experience exceptional and we will obviously be back for the food and hope to enjoy the atmosphere more next time.

    Very expensive for the size of the portions. The black cod was tiny, at £45 - overpriced. £18 for two small scallops - crazy! Service was ok, ambience was not great - we had to keep our voices low to save the entire restaurant from hearing us. Would not recommend 👎🏻

    Looks lovely menu ok but the concept for the price is insane. You order the large plates and have to wait ages for any sort of sides to go with it. Was not worth the £470 we paid left very hungry

    Poor and rude service. Food nowhere up to standards it was two years ago. The dress code is apparently now jeans, trainers and t-shirt.
