    The service was excellent from the moment you enter. The food was excellent, quality, quantity and the taste combinations. Beautiful decor!

    It was our first childfree date night for ages. We had a wonderful time and the singer added a great atmosphere to the place. The staff were fantastic, especially Evie who was happy to advise us on the menu. We didn’t realise when we booked that it would be the festive menu (we’re the sad people who look at the menu online to pick what we want beforehand), so it was a bit of a surprise but in a good way. The food was cooked to perfection. We will be definitely be booking another date night there in the new year.

    Clearly evident the food was prepared earlier during the day and left in hot plates. Vegetables were overcooked and meat was dry. A little disappointing that a Sunday lunch was so poor. However venue and staff were much better than the quality of the lunch.

    I had a Sunday roast from the Xmas menu, my wife had the duck , both meals should of been served with heritage carrots and chestnuts ( with sprouts) there were non on the plate. Both meals lacked taste, very bland except the red cabbage which was nice, The gravy was disappointing along with the hard and over cooked roast potatoes, the duck was very badly cooked in fact it was tough and inedible, the beef was standard, nice place very trendy, service was on the slow side considering the quality of the food and number of diners. I am sorry to say that we were very disappointed with the quality and price, because we do support local businesses in Ashbourne when we can but sadly will not be returning.

    Very small and noisy unfortunately . I was cold as ther was a draft coming through the window and then the air con was put on for some reason but thankfully it was towards the end of the meal so we paid up and left. It was expensive for what you had and the menu was limited as it was the Christmas menu only. It was 26 November!. No potato options other than triple cooked chips if you didn’t have roast turkey. Was recommended by a friend but was disappointed and won’t return.

    I was so disappointed with the food and the service we received. I’m coeliac and there were no allergies stated on the menu, I had to ask and the waitress was unsure which then made me feel uneasy about what I could and couldn’t eat if what she said was 100% GF . The barman rushed us and was rolling his eyes at the bar as we were the last to leave, this was only 10pm. The food that was served was cold, steak was undercooked and tough. I felt what we had was overpriced, mistakes can happen which can be pulled back with good service. But this was a let down too! Its such a shame as the restaurant is absolutely stunning and such a personal place to eat. I have another booking for next week but will sadly cancel and eat elsewhere.

    Starters very tasty and well-presented. Main course lamb rather dry with very little sauce. Service slow with only one person serving drinks and food. Quite a hard atmosphere. Sadly, we felt the meal was rather overpriced so we could not recommend.

    Food excellent particularly the first of the 6 courses. Excellent wine pairing that complimented the food . Disappointing that for all the staffs thought and preparation , there were only two tables in. Would recommend as an alternative to typical pub offerings.

    Really enjoyed our Sunday lunch at the vaults. Especially impressed by the magnificent and immaculate toilets! (Sadly up a lot of stairs so not suitable for all our party). All the staff were charming and helpful. Would love to go again.

    Unfortunately there was a talented saxophonist playing throughout our time at the restaurant. It completely ruined the evening as it was impossible to have a conversation on our table. She’s a talented musician but the volume was completely inappropriate for the size of the restaurant. It sadly spoiled a nice evening for 3 friends.

    The food was delicious. I ordered poached egg with chorizo, tomatoes and hollandaise sauce. I also had a passion fruit non alcoholic cocktail which was yummy! The ambience was relaxing with really smart decor. The waitress was friendly, helpful and efficient with our orders. Would definitely return again

    Outstanding meal served by first class staff, in particular the great guy who also made the cocktails to match any we’ve had in London bars. We celebrated a family birthday with cocktails first at The Bank down the road ( enthusiastic, professional and efficient team of staff. A watering can of Pornstar Martinis! )followed by dinner at The Vault. We eat out a lot and can honestly say this is the best meal I’ve had in a long time. Can’t wait to return.

    Food was very good and priced about right. Wine was an extortionate price at £10.50 a glass!! The table had a terrible wobble that was more about the design itself rather than an uneven floor. The other round table was exactly the same. My party of four thoroughly enjoyed the food and the service.

    Excellent service, wonderful warm welcome. Food was delicious. Due to limited soft furnishings and decor the noise and echo is quite loud which renders conversation a bit of a struggle, particularly for people who are mildly hearing impaired.

    We really enjoyed dining here. Good and service very good. Only criticism would be that the menu seems very limited. Perhaps having some different specials on would make it more interesting.
