    Food arrived quickly but was tepid and by the time we attracted the waiter to request mustard and gravy we had nearly finished. We also weren’t able to attract anyone to order another drink so disappointing

    Our server was great, the atmosphere was fun. My salmon was really good. My husband’s steak was just ok for the price. My son got the burger and he liked it. My daughter got the chicken Ceasar salad that she loved. The side of fries and mac n cheese were excellent. Overall we liked it but was overpriced.

    We loved our dinner at The Old Compton. It was wonderful from the moment we walked in the door till we left. The food was fantastic and the service very warm and personable. We would definitely come back again.

    We arrived 30mins before our reservation and we were able to get a table early. The drinks and food were exceptionally fast and delicious - can’t fault this restaurant. Highly recommended.

    Great time! Excellent food & lunchtime “meal deal”. As previously mentioned, it is a loud restaurant. So if you want a quiet, romantic meal, this is not the place. Very fun, energetic vibe!
