    This culinary gem that left me utterly impressed. From the moment I walked in, the warm ambiance and attentive staff set the stage for a memorable dining experience. The duck, cooked to absolute perfection and wine selection was equally remarkable. The cheese board was delightful too! If you’re seeking a spot where great food, exceptional wine, and warm hospitality converge, look no further. I’ll definitely be returning—and recommending it to everyone I know. Thank you Michelle and Eric, and our lovely French waitress (sorry I forget her name).

    Bang restaurant was booked on a friend's recommendation. Oh my gosh, it did not disappoint. The staff were superb, friendly but not over friendly. Very knowledgeable of the food they were serving and no rushing. The food was delicious, mushroom tarts, I want more. I had duck for the main, and it didn't disappoint. Their homemade bread, well you could just have a plate of that on its own. We will certainly return. Thank you for a lovely evening.

    This is a super restaurant. Full marks all round. I had vegetarian option, which was delicious, but would love a vegan option also, especially dessert. The bathroom hygiene & decor was of an outstanding standard, as was the dining areas also. Happy customer 😋
