We went for the 5 course tasting menu. At £25.00 you really can’t complain but it was super average, as expected I guess!

Just ok nothing special, was expecting more. Visited for my wedding anniversary and went for a la carte menu. Small portions, undercooked chips, fish and meat a little on the cheap side. Could do with overall improving

Had a lovely date! We went for the five taster menu, where you pick from the prix fixe menu plus amuse-bouche & predessert. We enjoyed all dishes. The amuse-bouche was tomato gazpacho with toasted brie and the predessert was a berry sorbet. We enjoyed everything. Interior was nice and is located in a pretty street. Would recommend.

Lovely food! We had the five-course dinner and were happy with every dish. All well-presented too, in a nicely arranged space. Great for a date. One suggestion: a wine list with some more interesting choices would really add to the experience!

Chose to eat at The Clock for the Eat Out to Help Out scheme, with a friend. Staff masked, distancing & friendly. Sea bass was a first class main dish. Chorizo & sweetcorn croquettes were an interesting & tasty starter, & the fruity Summer pudding finished things off nicely. The maximum number of diners at any time & where we were seated was obviously controlled, which was thoughtful & impressive - I witnessed some local restaurants that were "cramming them in" & encouraging queuing. Feeling comfortable when eating out is important at the moment, and we certainly did so.

Dear Brian, Thank you very much for your comment! It's great you had a good experience and you felt comfortable. We do our best in this crazy times to meet everyone needs and keep everyone safe. We hope to see you back soon!

Young knowledgeable staff, striking art on the walls, a wine list that is vibrant and innovative at the same time, very good value for the five courses with a glass of Champagne, simply outstanding scallops starter and Cod with three caviars sauce. To top it up, a lemon posset served in a clever jam glass pot. The quality of coffee is also remarkable. I can see from other reviews that this place has gone trough teething problems, but the value for money plus the courtesy are already there. Beware, I am already addicted.

Oh my! Thank you for this lovely review!!! We are so glad you have enjoyed this and.....we do promote this sort of healthy addictions! Do come back, there will be more!
