We all went for roasts, the meets excellence. Some if the accompaniments could have been better - not bad, just not five star worthy. Biggest issue was time for food to arrive.
Oh my, the food at The Walrus was AMAZING. We all had a Monday roast, there was a half lemon &thyme chicken, roast pork belly, and a trio roast which had the chicken, pork and a thick tender slice of beef. We thought it might be quiet being a Monday but was surprised by how busy it was at 6.30pm Beer was good too Definitely recommend
Cute place definitely great for larger groups. Our server was lovely absolutely no complaints about her! Will say though I doubt I’ll be returning due to the wait times and the actual quality of food. It was about 50 minutes of a wait for the food to come out, and the halloumi burger at that point didn’t feel soft but instead rubbery and cold; this too was the case with the chicken in the caesar salad which was dry. My parents also ordered sticky toffee pudding but that also took a while to come out and was more of a dry cake consistency rather than soft and warm how it is meant to be. Regardless, the service was great and the atmosphere was homely too!
Had the best evening at the cocktail and food pairing night, superb value, gorgeous tasty dishes and perfectly paired cocktails. Such good service, staff were attentive and friendly. Perfect night. My only minor complaint and it’s not really a complaint at all, was the portions were a little big and the last cocktail was a long one but we were too full to finish it. Couldn’t manage to finish most courses, despite how delicious they were
The cocktail and food pairing evening was flawless—creative drinks, delicious dishes, and spot-on pairings. The ambiance was beautiful and the service exceptional. Truly one of the best dining nights I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommend! Our waitress Poppy was absolutely brilliant, so attentive and helpful!
Wandering around the Lanes looking for a spot to finish the day and came upon the Walrus. Not knowing anything about the place, we took a chance and got a table. Place is bigger on the inside for sure. We arrived at 5pm on a Saturday and we’re surprised to find that we could only get a table if we could be finished by 7. No problem we said and we’re seated on one of many floors. The food was amazing. Roasted Sea Bream, Camembert with roasted sourdough, a decent steak and fantastic sticky pudding and crumble. We left a little lighter in the wallet but genuinely impressed with the service and the quality of the meal. 6 nights into this trip and this meal has been the best to date, including the London leg. Well done.
We went for Sunday roast last week and we ate excellent. I liked a lot the place's decoration, wooden environment, and the atmosphere of the restaurant, which is incredibly big, you cannot wonder it is like that from outside. I lived in Ship street for 4 years and was really nice to come back and visit this place. I got the pork option and was really taste and crunchy. Not to be missed. Special mention to the young guy who was attending us upstairs, very polite, smiley, friendly and kind. Also the worker girls and the host man who got us the table for 6 with no booking in advance. Thanks a lot!
This place totally deserves a 5-star review from me! Their Sunday roast is superb. I’ve had their slow lamb roast which was falling off the bone and succulent. The side pink cabbages in wine sauce is exquisite and very flavorful. I enjoyed every bite; highly recommended!
Nothing to complain. Food and services are excellent. There was a live band which was out of my expectation. Had a wonderful time here and definitely will go again!
