Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Fiume offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere with "fantastic food" and friendly service. While some guests miss the variety of the old menu, current favorites like the 1/2 pizza 1/2 pasta concept and "beautiful Sunday lunch" are praised. The staff's attentiveness and the cozy environment create a pleasant dining experience.

    We got a table booked for half 6 ordered drinks and food straight away .. ordered potato skins and cheese garlic bread for 4 people to share .: by 7:15 we were told the chef didn’t see the garlic bread on the ticket it won’t be long, took around an hour in total for starters to come then mains came after, I wanted no Napoli sauce on my burger .. it came with it on .. the place was freezing and another table where eating with the jackets on, then all the lights went out.

    Been a customer of Fiume for a number of years . The menu has been down sized and my favourite dish is still on the menu but looks like is has been tweaked it was nice but not as much as I remember off old menu the staff were great fast and friendly service beer was flat tonight also . Usually 5/5 but 4/5 tonight

    Just wanted to thank Team Fiume today. Me and husband often visit for Sunday lunch. Today I chose to have pasta Fiume and Hubby had roast chicken dinner. Amazing food, quick, friendly service. Everything was spot on. Well worth a visit if you have never been.

    On arrival the waitress showed us to our table. The restaurant was very cold. We were sat under an air conditioning unit. We were all cold as the unit was blowing cold air! My husband asked the waitress if it could be turned off? She came with a very small heater which is appropriate for a small box bedroom. Other people in the restaurant were sat with outdoor coats on or wrapped around themselves. This is totally unacceptable! Waitresses have no idea what is going on. We were asked several times about drinks and food by different waitresses. My mother in law was still eating her main course and yet the waitress decided to come and take plates. Very unprofessional almost as if she wasn’t trained front of house. Not a good experience for my sons birthday
