   Not a great experience today have been many times without a problem. Was not happy with the main meal was meant to be fillet of hake. Did not look great not the usual nice white colour and was full of long bones was accompanied by what was meant to be potato and leek was well and truly over cooked. It went back sadly my husband was already eating his meal, so therefore presented a problem for me. Obviously, they took the price of the meal off the bill, but that wasn’t the point really the lunch was ruined.

   2 of us had mussels which were very small, I had a 40 day aged steak which was not very good , apart from that everything else was good.

   Paper thin walls allowing us to hear the prostatic function of the guest in the floor above, a basin that didn't empty and a small TV hung from the wall like a leaf blowing in the wind. Not what we expected for £155 per night. The restaurant tries hard with the menu and the food is fine but the the bright lights, poor furniture and lack lustre service do nothing to help the lack of ambience. Also the wine is outrageous in price, 3x the price of the same bottle in Waitrose. Fine if on expenses and the hotel trade has to make a profit but we will go elsewhere next time.

   Food was superb, choice was good even with my dairy allergy which was noted then dealt with without me having to repeat it again. . Service was friendly and well timed despite the restaurant being busy with a wedding in the next room. Would highly recommend

    I had the pleasure of celebrating my doctoral graduation at Farmhouse Redcoat, and it was a truly wonderful experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, with an extensive plant-based menu that I deeply appreciated. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and flavourful. The restaurant itself is modern and beautifully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that is perfect for a special occasion. What truly stood out was the exceptional service and attention to detail. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a complimentary glass of bubbles to mark my achievement, and to my delight, I was also presented with a special congratulations dessert—which they ensured was vegan just for me. This level of care meant a lot, as complimentary items are often not suitable for me despite being intended for me. The staff were friendly, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, making the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. I would 100% return for another special occasion and highly recommend Farmhouse Redcoat to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience.
