The food, service and ambience of Spensley's was perfect for an evening catch up with long-time friends. We opted for a couple of small plates, some sides and a couple of mains to share. Great value for money.

Superb food, exemplary service and most importantly a couple of non trendy baby boomers are treated like family. Dr Susan Nikakis

Once again the food, service and ambience was fantastic. We had the set menu, and were able to cater for all food likes. I had the pork main and others had the fish. The tiramisu was to die for. Great night.

I had a birthday dinner for 10 people. We had a set menu. The food was fabulous! We started with pickled vegetables and gorgeous cured meat with freshly made bread. The next course was anchovy toasts that melted in your mouth. We then had a lovely salmon dish that was jaw droppingly good. Next they brought out the meat dish, beautifully prepared with the potatoes perfectly cooked and salad. We ended the night with goats cheese mouse with figs. Perfect evening !Everyone was impressed and wanting to go back again soon. The service was impeccable, they could not have been any friendlier or helpful. Thank you for making it a perfect birthday dinner.

Consistently good food and exceptional service. Tom and the team are welcoming, engaging, attentive and professional without being stuffy. It's like going to visit mates for a good meal and great variety of wines
