Lunch Set Menu 2/3 Courses £17.95/£19.95
Multiple dates available
The first signs of Spring have arrived in full bloom across the country. It is this seasonal shift that has inspired our new set lunch menu, featuring Gaucho classics and spring favourites alike. Crispy prawns with a spicy aji amarillo sauce and pickled onions are the perfect complement to the warming weather before diving into a Gaucho staple rump steak with a generous helping of chips and chimichurri sauce. Or, opt for the pan-fried sea bream with a lively salsa verde and rocket salad before indulging in a sweet Dulce de Leche pancake with a scoop of banana split ice cream. Join us from 12:00 – 16:00 at your favourite Gaucho to explore for yourself. Two courses for just £17.95, or three for £19.95.

Our roast rump of beef is served with roast potatoes and unlimited Yorkshire puddings, accompanied by seasonal vegetables, and limitless red wine gravy for £26.95 per person.

We booked this restaurant as our 2nd visit overall for Mothering Sunday. We had such high expectations after our first visit in 2024. It was nicer sitting downstairs rather than upstairs as it’s a lot lighter. We sat down and were greeted with menus, and drinks orders taken. We made choices of food for ourselves and the two children, our sons food was not as advertised, it was basically a giant chicken nugget with a side of chips - which was supposed to be chicken with pasta and a sauce. Our Sunday dinners were listed as unlimited Gravy, we asked on numerous occasions for more which never came until the end of our meal. The meat was very fatty and not at all up to the standard it should be. The desert menu wasn’t up to the standards either with little options or no options in case of the children having a desert menu. Unfortunately put us off returning for a 3rd time
