   Third time here... on the first two occasions we had a good experience and the service was fine. Yesterday's visit was disappointing, mainly due to the service. It took 15 minutes to see a menu, another 10 to place an order; it seemed like we'd been forgotten. Paid drinks eventually arrived, but requested tap water didn't, had to chase up (and the water glass was grubby). Our server then dropped a cocktail into our starter - not her fault, but she then wandered off and we had to go in search of napkins ourselves to wipe up; it took several more minutes before she returned with a cloth, and was sceptical about the need to replace the starter. When the bill arrived, we were still being charged for the spilled cocktail and the damp starter. I fully appreciate how difficult it is at the moment to recruit and retain staff, but to be honest the poor service did rather ruin the experience, and I'm not sure we'll be back.

   I’ve been to a few Bill’s restaurants and so far, this is the best one I’ve visited. The staff were very friendly and polite and the food and cocktails were great.

   I came wirh members of our choir which performed that evening at James chirch opposite the restaurant. We all enjoyed our visit and the varied choice of excellent food. So much so that I returned later after the concert with members of my family to have a drink while they hadna late meal.

    Felt like having lunch in children's nursery. Service staff untrained. Food sub standard for £60 plus 12,5% service charge. Embarrassing for the establishment. Never again

    Food was nice. Service a bit slow and the mains came before our starter but they then took the starter off the bill without being asked to so couldn’t complain. A bit chilly outside, though nice if you were directly under the heater.

    I like this place because of its location and value for money. Great choice of food on the menu but the service is slow and you find it difficult to get the attention of the staff in general. No-one specific- have been a couple of times and found the same both times/ different staff.

    We had a lovely meal there for my birthday. The vegan lasagne was delicious however I think it should be called a ‘bake’ rather than a lasagne as there was no pasta .

    The main dishes were served before we had finished our starters which felt very rushed and not nice. My steak was cooked through like it had been sitting under the keep hot lights for too long in the kitchen when I had asked for it pink. The plate had chips thrown on it, the steak thrown on top and two eggs cooked together thrown on top of that. It was the way they served it but it was a horrible mess. The fish in the fish pie was hard and chewy. The rosemary chips were like cardboard. A very disappointing experience and not one to repeat any time soon. Plus they didn’t clean or clear the table once we’d finished and were ready to pay. Untrained staff and shoddy service both in the kitchen and on the restaurant floor. Just thoroughly unpleasant and as it was meant to be an early Mother’s Day celebration it was even more horrible

    Good lunch - reasonable value for money and good service. However service charge not a good idea! The food was tasty and adequate for four people with not-to-big appetites!

    As they say looks can be deceiving and these are excaty that.⁣ I went to bills for pancakes. ⁣Can anyone say disappointment. ⁣ ⁣There was not enougth fruit or maple syrup,the pancake tasted like bicarbonate of soda leaving a metallic taste in my mouth.⁣ ⁣I'd have to sadly say thses are the worst pancakes i've ever had.⁣

    No options for dietary requirements (not even willing to accommodate). Waiters ignoring guests. Food mediocre (while charging a lot). This was my last time spending any money with Bill's.

    We went to Bill's for Brunch and were quite disappointed to be honest! We ordered eggs benedict for each and pancakes to share but the eggs benedict were far from the ideal. The muffin was not toasted (it was cold even) and the sauce only tasted like butter. The pancakes were completely dry. Dry enough we couldn't finish it, even sipping our coffee all the way to try and get it finished. Such a shame as I love bill's for lunch/dinner.
