The 20 Best Bistro in Doncaster

“Today we had a little pit stop during our 10 mile walk. Been here a few times now and it's alway lovely. Friendly staff and lovely food.”

“Absolutely beautiful cafe. It’s extremely reasonably priced and you always get a gorgeous home cooked meal, don't know how any one could grumble for under £10. We now come every single week. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming. The only place we would go for food in Tickhill.”

“Two colleagues and myself had dinner there today.The service was top quality and the food was great.We will definitely be eating there again.”

“There is plenty of parting but it does fill up easily when busy!. The place looks well inside will a recent addition of a booth with disinfectant vapour in, which was comforting. The staff was very friendly and the food was great, I had a punjabi masala which was fab definitely will go again.”

“Such a lovely place, Pancakes were so fluffy and delicious and it is nicely decorated. I would so recommend”

“The best breakfast I've ever had (Wellington Breakfast), cooked to perfection, tasted divine. Wife was very impressed with her bacon and egg sandwich. Service was swift, courteous and professional. I couldn't be happier with the service, food, drink and atmosphere”

“We had a fantastic time in here over the weekend for a retirement do and whilst visiting family. The drinks were perfect, well prepared with expert service behind the bar from staff who were friendly and offered great advice on what went with what. The food was delicious and I would highly recommend whether for a quick visit or a longer evening in. We'll be back!”

“There were eight of us who dined here prior to us staying the night at the lovely Hex Hotel. Now I'm known to have eaten a burger or two in my time so I consider myself an expert in such things. I had the 6oz Prime Beef Burger and added cheese and bacon. Now take this as a compliment chef/owners etc; this was one of the best burgers I've eaten. The meat was perfect and the Onion Chutney added a level of sweetness that just made it next level. The bacon was also really nice. It didn't fall apart and it wasn't at all greasy. Trust me, this is a top tier burger that I'd recommend very highly. The service was good and we also had breakfast the following morning. Breakfast was a buffet help yourself affair. The food was great and of a decent quality. 10/10”

“Perfect food. The service was great, the people there were very nice, served us food eve though we got there almost before closing time very kind people. Thank you very much! Highly recommended this place.”

“Under new management! Great, lively and quirky bar. Fantastic cocktails with a cocktail of the month available. Lovely seated courtyard area and extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff.”

“I really liked it here . Came too celebrate my birthday and I was given a free birthday cake. The food here was really good and tender. It looked so nice with all the Christmas decorations up and the person serving us was nice too so I've had a great time. Would definitely recommend”

“Lovely place in the village with a fantastic, diverse menu. Caters for most dietary requirements and the staff are ace. Also a small selection of cocktails at reasonable prices. Most impressive was the taste and the plating of the food! We will be back.”

“We visited Spice and Ice last night and were blown away by the quality of the food. We were also really dismayed that we were the only people in. So firstly, the restaurant itself is still super glamourous and very comfortable. But the food is the real star now. Firstly, they have included very interesting dishes on the menu such as Gobi Manchurian and Aloo Papri Chaat alongside curry house favourites. They managed to get everything right. Our favourite dish was a smoky aubergine dish called Baingan Bharta. The waiter explained how they burtnt the aubergine skin to get the flavour. We got the impression that all the food was made from scratch with this type of care. Another star dish was the Samosas, they are the Punjabi style made with thick pastry, slightly spicy and very filling. Also, the wine was a reasonable price and great quality. So the only criticism we could come up with was “no craft beer”, but that’s pretty much the same for all restaurants in Doncaster. Finally, the staff were excellent. They were knowledgeable, polite and professional. Photo of the bill included but we all thought it was excellent value for what we had. They are obviously skilled in the trade and cared about customers. We told them they need an Open Now banner out front because we thought the place had closed down. Anyway, if you are in the area, please give them a go.”

“Tha food is wonderful, however, it's cash only, make sure you ask for your receipt or you won't get one. Service when we went there last week, was slow and I'm not totally sure how to describe the two guys working the tables, one was really nice, the other though was pleasant, but not sure about him! We were 8, 6 adults one 5 year old and a baby, and we were a loud group, so maybe he had reservations about us. We did have a lovely evening despite my gripes.”

“I came across this bar on Saturday and absolutely loved it, loved the upcycled theme throughout and the vibe inside was really good. Really loved the beer kegs turned into stools! The bar staff were friendly and helpful and quick service. The drinks were quiet expensive compared to other bars but they tasted so good I didn't mind paying that bit extra. Will be going again and recommending it to all my friends.”

“Popped in for a drink on Saturday, after seeing the wonderful meals coming out from the kitchen we decided to stay and have a meal. Gorgeous food I’m not one to leave reviews but honestly the food was delicious I had vegetarian lasagne my husband had sausage and mash. It was so good we booked for Sunday dinner the next day, once again gorgeous honestly you have got to try this place, great friendly staff and the food well it has to be tried, absolutely gorgeous.”

“I just want to say a Huge Thank you!! To the whole of Zinis team for making my baby shower so special! I honestly couldn't ask for more! Thank you so much, Sofia, for creating such a stunning afternoon tea! It tasted as amazing as it looked. The lemon dessert was a huge hit!! Everyone loved it. Thank you so much to Chris, Rocco, & and team for taking such good care of us on the day and making sure it ran smoothly. And a massive Thank you to Claudia & Carly for making it all happen planning & coordinating everything and making sure everything is perfect you have been an absolute dream Thank you so much!!”

“Went for a meal here last night, with family and wow the food was amazing. Not often I'm defeated by a meal, but the burger won last night that's for sure. Great quality food and Big portions. Can't wait to go back.”

“This restaurant was recommended and see why. The food, staff and location was wonderful. We had the 'while you waiting' snack - delicious, then starters, main course and sweet. All the food was tasty and flavoursome. I had the homemade 'pie of the day' (mushroom and ale) which was absolutely delicious and plentiful. The triple cooked chips (pinched from my wife's plate) were some of the best we have ever tasted. The menu is not extensive but after seeing what other diners had ordered as well, we noticed all the dishes had the same care and quality and represented very good value. The staff were very attentive and pleasant and we insisted on leaving a service charge as none was included. We throughly recommend this establishment.”

“Trip out to see my best mate's sister n partner with his grandson who has cerebral palsy. Pub is wheelchair friendly n dog friendly. Very comfortable n extremely polite n friendly bar staff. And they had a right selection of draught beers. My mate n I had a couple of pints of draught mango cider - outstanding. All in all a most enjoyable afternoon”

“Wow. Fantastic food and they made every effort to get us a table for food. 3 of us had the chicken kebab which was excellent, and pizza. Definitely won't leave it so long before we return. Highly recommended Merry Christmas Thank you”

“If I were you I'd be very suspicious of poor reviews for this place. Have been about half a dozen times in the last year and the food is REALLY good. The buffet is exceptional for quality & choice. And I grew up in Bradford where the quality is mostly high across the board as the locals demand it. This place is up there but don't whinge about it being spicy - it's real Asian food made freshly with real spices!!!”
