We had booked a table but it was 20 minutes until we were seated from our booked time. Waited a further 15 minutes until we were asked for our food order. I understand to have an ambiance but we couldn’t see our table or food, it was quite dark. Ordered a table water which took 10minutes which was odd as the bar was literally in front of us and it wasn’t overly busy. The food arrived in good time. The food is a mixed review, it was delicious, everything eaten was cooked and tasted to perfection. The steak was literally just that. My partner ate his steak and I was only a quarter through my meal, having to feed him some of my chips as he was still hungry. Food was delicious, just limited in quantity on certain dishes. Staff were clearly busy and not very attentive to be honest apart from a gentleman who was very happy and polite. A shame as it has a good reputation and as I say, what was eaten was delicious, just let down by some important factors .

Attended today for the feast & flow menu. The staff were very helpful. I didn't drink but had the mocktails & they were nice. The food was nice too.

Thought we would try out the new menu and we were very impressed. Some great new dishes. Wish we could have tried them all but there was only 2 of us. Also very impressed with the staff. Although they all seem a bit on the young side, they were very professional and welcoming. Big shout out to Andy who went his normal above and beyond.

I’m not keen on the new menu-we much preferred the smaller plates on the previous menu. The large cuts are too expensive. I also think it is poor that when you order a steak, it costs around £10 extra to add fries and a sauce, making an 8oz rib eye steak almost £40. We ordered a rib eye steak medium rare and it was so thin (1cm) it was almost impossible to cook it medium rare. We asked for a replacement which was dealt with excellently by the waiter

The food is amazing, and I could not fault it. It is very loud in there, though, with the music played at quite a high volume and therefore people talking loudly to compensate. Unfortunately, the service was a little slow, which impacted our experience.

My wife and I went with the intention of having a Sunday lunch today 23/2/25 where I asked where the turkey option hqd been removed fron the Sunday lunch menu. I asked a member of staff why the turkey was not there, and I was told that it was a seasonal dish!!!! It's strange that we have had lunch there all year round, where there has been turkey on the menu. I do not like beef, ham or the veg options. I ended up with a burger. Very disappointed with this excuse about the seasonal aspect.

Went for my mother in laws birthday, food was decent, very few options for vegetarians! The service was appalling, no one in site. Waited 45 minutes for the bill, had to go up to find someone which was not on. Waiter huffing and puffing when asked for a menu. Ordered our food, brother in law came 10 minutes after and ended up getting his food first and nearly finished his food when the rest of the party’s food came. Thought it be better considering, won’t be coming back here again!

Extra special thank you to Becky (the Sous Chef) who was helping out extra as Waitress for the Day. My poorly Nan was very pleased with her ‘takeaway’. The place is lovely and the Sunday dinner food was delicious.

Had lovely meal with my granny. We always choose the Orange Tree. Food was lush, as ever, but a shoutout to the service team is needed. So good. Forthcoming without being overbearing. Happy and polite. Everyone is the same so it’s a culture thing and it’s great! Thanks for a lovely night.
