Had a lovely meal at Brook Bistro on a Thursday evening. The staff, atmosphere and especially the food was all fantastic. The garlic bread with honey is a must! Steak was perfectly cooked. Had a very enjoyable evening.

We arrived earlier than expected for our booking but despite it being a very busy evening the staff couldn't have been more helpful. They fitted us in happily and we enjoyed excellent food and service throughout. Lovely venue and we'll certainly visit again.

About the restaurant

The spirit of Pizzeria Villaggio can be traced back to our traditional roots in Campobasso, a humble town filled with beautiful people in Southern Italy. Pizzeria Villaggio has been run by the Palladino family since opening in 1986. Borrowing our grandparent’s secret recipes and adopting their love of good authentic food, combined with the Italian values of creating a great family atmosphere for all age groups, has contributed to our success and longevity. We have a dedicated & friendly team who are passionate about using high-quality ingredients to produce delicious Italian food.

Great food. Very good quality. Nice and hot when it arrived. Didn’t have to wait to long from time of order. Efficient Service. (Even though it was busy) Food arrive promptly. Highly recommend the kids pizza with drink and desert. Pizza was surprisingly large. Luckily we could take it home in a card board box supplied by the establishment. Drinks are reasonable. Cheaper than our local watering hole in Thornhill. Booking is essential.

We were welcomed by a friendly member of staff and taken to our table and seated upstairs as requested. Our server was very polite, attentative and professional. All staff were very smartly dressed. Our food arrived which was of high quality presented lovely and hot. We were a table of two and we never felt rushed and all timings of food being delivered was just right. I would definitely visit again.

Expect a ‘bore da’ at breakfast and a ‘nos da’ after drinks when you join us in the Wyndham Arcade. Whether you’re after a quiet booth for two, or a table for 10 in our outdoor terrace (in Wales, we know...), we’ve got you covered.
