   Restaurant did not have my booking. Food was OK but nothing to write home about. Went to the Bolton's as used to have a grand restaurant and excellent range of seafood and fish. However, had to eat in the bar and menu much reduced. Had roast lamb which was not freshly carved but pre-cut slices. Asked for receipt for contactless payment. Noted that had on it a BH1 postcode, which is for Brighton! Would have caused me concern and a lot of sorting out when checking my account if had not asked for receipt and spotted this.

   Booked for Boltons Bistro BUT were seated in Bar instead (Table ok though ). Ambience therefore very different to previous visits in other years, and limited menu without the usual range of fish for which Boltons is known. Starter was ok, as was sweet .BUT main course was DIRE. Ordered Fish and chips, but my fish in particular was thick with soggy batter penetrating through it , more batter than fish., and barely digestable. Husbands was better and had more fish. But he was disappointed that we had dry, frozen chips , and both of us left a lot on the plate. However our waiter was too busy schmoozing hotel guests (and moaning about his pay ) that he left us with the plates for ages and then never even bothered to ask how it was despite it being obvious we hadn't enjoyed it! SO I had to make a point of saying it wasn't good and he said he'd "speak to the chef"., but offered no apology. We heard no more when he came to give us sweet menu,; he kept approaching table with mask UNDER his nose (!) and when serving sweet nearly poked me in the eye with my plate as he served my husband first . We then had to struggle to catch his attention to get those plates cleared and ask for bill (after waiting well over 15 mins).When he presented bill to us I had to ask what the response of the chef had been at which point he burbled some rubbish about fish coming in different sizes (!!! -strange I thought they were all identical ?!!), and that was why it could come out differently, and still never apologised. (We doubt he ever spoke to the chef.). NOTHING was taken off the bill to compensate for our poor experience and nor did they mark the fact it was booked as my husbands birthday meal in anyway. This is our most local restaurant but will not be going there again.

   Lovely experience and food but some ventilation would have been good in the current circumstances.

   The service was excellent, the food outstanding and the price very reasonable. The staff were so polite, professional, helpful and obliging that it truly was a ‘breath of fresh air’ to be tended by them. The Bistro itself was tasteful in decor and furnishings. The Sea views stunning.

   The food at Bolton’s was just fantastic! It was the best place we ate at all weekend. Each course super fresh. And the fish was just so delicious, I had sea bass, my partner the fish and chips. The food beautifully presented well cooked and we ate everything!! The service was perfect too and Robert looked after us and was friendly abd helpful the other young waiter the same. Highly recommend eating here without exception. On our next visit we will definitely eat here. Thank you so much . Sian and Gert

   Was unsure what to expect, as had become under new management and struggled to get a menu up prior to booking. Very lovely meal, as regards to noise level think we created it, we were nurses on our first day out to see the queen tribute, staff very accommodating. Thank you

   Having booked a table some time ago to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary in Bolton's Bistro we were devastated to receive a phone call the night before our meal cancelling our table, offering Covid & staff shortages as an unconvincing excuse. As it was near impossible to get somewhere else to dine at that short notice we ended up queuing at the 'chippy' No 1 on the sea front. Obviously pre-booking is dangerous at this Hotel there is no loyalty whatsoever. I can recommend No 1; the food, service and sea views were excellent and they were pleased oblige us

    The restaurant has a nice ambience with many tables having a sea view. Cromer crab was excellent. Service was very good. Wine prices a little high. Would visit again.
