    We dined on a very quiet, chilly Monday in January- and while the restaurant was quiet, the staff made us feel really welcome & comfortable. The food was excellent- Tom went out of his way to cater for a vegan diet and it was a flavourful treat for the senses. The fish dishes available were great & the wine selection delicious. Highly recommend- a chef that really understands flavour & can deliver an absolute treat.

    Wonderful meal and a lovely atmosphere. A menu that is not too big ensuring that everything is cooked fresh (and it was). Fabulous place

    We had a fab meal at Toms for my elderly mother-in-law’s birthday. The food and wine were great, good menu choice (not over complicated) and great ambiance. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Can highly recommend

    We have been many times . We went after the fireworks and probably booked the table too late not envisioned how full the restaurant was and had been through out the evening. It’s usually 5* but the food definitely wasn’t up to its normal extremely high standard. A shame but we will definitely be back when the restaurant is less frenetic!
