R Bar & Brasserie at The Richmond Hotel

Was really looking forward to our 3 course meal that we had paid for through Virgin Experience Days...... But it was SHUT . Just a number scribbled on an A board. So obviously can't comment on the service, the food, the ambience......

Had afternoon tea with two friends here using a Groupon deal. Was absolutely beautiful! The food was great and the selection of savouries and sweet treats were delicious, together with a glass of prosecco each. One of our party was vegetarian and she was given her own stand with lovely, unusual options for the sandwiches, which she was very pleased with. The service was excellent and tea was unlimited. The room is beautiful and we had a lovely few hours excellent value for money and highly recommended!

Booked via group on definitely wasn't disappointed ! Food and service was great. Amazing value for money 3 course meal for 2 and a bottle of wine for £40. Lovely venue too.

Beautiful dining room and very helpful, friendly staff. Afternoon tea was beautifully presented but a bit disappointing cheap, nasty ham on one sandwich...wouldn't cost much to buy some decent ham but the other sandwiches were lovely with plenty of filling. Prawns were big and juicy. Lots of cakes scones were light and tasty with clotted cream and jam. Petit Fours all seemed bought in and had been previously frozen as the pastry was very soggy, they tasted nice but would have preferred home made. Mini carrot cake was divine and tasted home made but the others were just quite mushy and probably shop bought. Informed by waitress that there is a new chef and this does not appear to have been a change for good! Tea was weak...need 2 teabags in a 2 cup pot!!

Went here on Friday for Afternoon tea with my daughter and mum. The hotel decor is fab, spotless with hand sanitiser stations. The waiter and waitress made us feel really welcome. The afternoon tea was beautifully presented and was delicious! I really enjoyed the coronation chicken wrap. Will be returning and would recommend.
