    First time at the Orange Tree. Lovely setting, staff friendly and helpful. Table set beautifully and not crammed in. Special board and good menu catering for all dietary needs. Slightly disappointed with my Caesar salad struggled to find the anchovies and bacon. I would return but will not chose a salad. Park good but full by 8pm

    As a regular visitor we love to bring our guests to the orange tree restaurant ,I requested a table by the window in the entrance which was kindly put in place and the varied menu gave everyone plenty of choices including one of our guests who was vegetarian. I had the special seafood linguine ,my husband had the chicken dish stuffed with spinach and chorizo, one of our guests had the lamb koftas and the other had the cauliflower vegetarian dish all beautifully presented and really delicious .The ambience is really nice and service is outstanding so a big thankyou for making our experience so good

    The evening started well, as we received a Happy Anniversary card on our Table—a nice touch. The menu is extensive, so there was a lot to choose from. The service was attentive when we sat down and ordered our meal. But attention to our table dropped as the restaurant was busy, so we had to wait a bit for our dessert order. Nonetheless, we had a good experience, and it was just right for a quiet dinner with my wife to celebrate our 7th anniversary.
