    Went for the pre-theatre menu - chewy steak, three rock hard potatoes. Service was underwhelming. The only positive was that it's nearby to various theatres. Unlikely to return - there are better restaurants nearby.

    Loved the pre-theatre menu, excellent value for money. Enjoyed the happy hour cocktails too! Very friendly and attentive service. We would definitely go to the Stoke House again.

    We were visiting, this restaurant was recommended by the hotel. The wings were flavorful, the Caesar salad was great! I had the short rib, flavor was there, but I, and maybe it’s me, think the meat should fall apart and off the bone. 12 hours in a smoker, that was my expectation. A bit fatty, a bit tough. Pork chop, again, flavor was good but a thin chop. One thing, for * seasoned * martini drinkers, mixologists, dry means a rinse around the glass with dry vermouth, gin shaken until icy, chilled glass, olives, no pits.

    Table for 6 late lunch on Saturday. Restaurant wasn’t busy but still good ambiance. Food was cooked well, but small portions for the price on the main menu- theatre menu was a better offer.

    The restaurant and service was good but unfortunately the food was the worst, overpriced and we were all disappointed with our meals. The roast potato’s were very stale and this was the only options apart from seasonal greens that was a bit of cress. I wouldn’t return and urge those looking at the reviews to book somewhere else.

    Prompt and tasty pre theatre menu. Service comes well with one party arriving late and joining only for the main course. However, advance notes re quiet seating to make hearing easier had not been actioned, although table was actually quiet enough. We also had 2 gluten free diners: the restaurant was able to cater for them ,and adjust dishes but had no allergie markers.
