   Average. Service is non existent. Waiter couldn’t take an order of 3 drinks because he didn’t have a tablet… music was incredibly loud for dinner time making it hard to keep a conversation. Food was decent standard pub food, nothing to write home about.

   What stood out was the attentiveness and service provided by our host. She had an exceptional attitude and ensured the night was pleasant. Food of course was delicious.

   The food was very average, perhaps one star above Pub food. we also had trouble having a conversation at our table, the noise level was very loud, the table service was very good although inexperienced but in these day that is acceptable.

    We booked after an amazing experience on Mother’s Day but unfortunately didn’t experience the same level of quality as we did last time. Firstly it was lovely to get wine and chocolates as a Mother’s Day gift and then to be greeted with a specia fruit and wine - upon arrival for Father’s Day the staff were scurrying around trying to get things organised and I wasn’t sure if they were even open and there was nothing special for the fathers. We have a young baby this was noted on the booking and we’re sat right next to the band not only was it so loud for her but I couldn’t even hear my partner talk and there wasn’t any consideration to swap us with another table or later booking at the start only was it offered when we had already finished our meal. The food was also not the standard we have experienced in the past and whilst there is a change of owners and menu occurring it was upsetting to experience this at what has been one of our favourite places to go. The ball was really dropped for Father’s Day and didn’t have the same magical vibe it did for mothers day or even other days we have come. I hope the new owners and change of menu really lift the game and service as it was not good at all yesterday.

    Unfortunately our experience was not so good this time. Staff were lovely and welcoming however the music was unbearably loud and distorted. The menu has changed considerably to very few offerings and whilst 3 of our meals were lovely (all be it over priced) one was inedible. After coming here many times sadly I think this was our last visit.

    Well, Thornbury Taphouse called me on Friday 12th of August at 5:37pm to tell me that they don’t have enough staff to cater for 17 people booked for 6pm. That is poor effort from the venue. Surely they have staff on standby?

    Absolute disgrace the place was closed they didn’t even let Us know that they were closed. We ended up on the street with no place to go. They messaged me to confirm my booking & yet they couldn’t let me know they were closed. Would not recommend.

    Great location, tasty food, trendy decor, all good. They use the QR code system to order food and drinks, the upside is that everything's paid for and you can make a fast exit! The downside is there's very minimal customer service, it just lacks that extra touch that's worth leaving a tip for. Unfortunately the menu on the website doesn't match the menu on the QR code so I was disappointed as I was looking forward to the chicken wings and skewers. There seemed to be quite a variance between what's on the website to what is actually available to order. Overall the food was tasty and reasonably priced so may consider visiting another time.

    The seats in booth against wall were horrible and collapsed. The meal. Lamb rague was bland and the lamb was non existent had about 4 mouthfuls the waitress didn’t even ask what if anything was wrong. My partner reported The steak wAs tough and didn’t eat it all. No one checked on us after our meal came. Not impressed at all.

    Thornbury Tap house has exceeded my expectations time and time again, with special requests made or going there on days like Mother’s Day they go above an beyond and just make their customers feel so looked after. The staff are amazing, warm and polite and the food is quick and delicious. I couldn’t recommend for people to go here more and is my go to place for catch ups with any friends.

    It was a great first time experience. Service and food very good. The only negative thing was that it was dark where we were sitting, could do with better lighting at lunchtime. Otherwise, very good and would come back again soon.

    The food was very good and well priced. It was very disappointing that there were only two dessert items to choose from and no coffees offered. We were given a poor excuse that they are not a café; what sit down restaurant doesn't offer coffees? I would not recommend this place if you are accustomed to coffee and dessert at the end of your meal, else good value and lovely staff.
