Derwent - Carta

Booked this restaurant for our 30th Wedding Anniversary and made an excellent choice. Food and service very good and staff attentive without being overbearing. Considering the recent awards this restaurant has the prices were more than reasonable too.

Fast and efficient service from what appears to be a fixed menu. Stayed for three nights and ate in the restaurant for the whole of our stay. Mostly good but experienced chewy lamb, cold plates and only mediocre breakfasts (poor, strangely cooked bacon) ..... oh yes and a 250 ml of Sauvignon Blanc for £10.25 !!

We went to this restaurant for Sunday lunch on Father's Day and paid £25 for a three-course meal. The food was outstanding, although it was difficult to finish all three courses. We were also treated to coffee and mints in the bar/lounge, where a table had been reserved for us. We found a pleasant surprise gift for Fathers as well. Ver carta

We ate here on two evenings, having seen that it had been awarded an AA Rosette. Sadly the food disappointed. Whilst our starters were acceptable, the main courses were poor. In particular the Halibut and mussel risotto at £24 was a disaster. Hot plates were not used which didn't help and dishes. Maybe the chef was on holiday but that is no excuse.

Had a nice dinner out with friends. Came here as they wanted a good venue. Advertised as rosetta star restaurant. The food was very good but for the price the service should have been more attentive. We had to ask for another bottle of wine and had to take the bill to be paid. Only minor but expected at this level. Food was lovely, I can recommend the salmon and the wood pigeon starter was good as well.

This restaurant is absolutely amazing for a special meal or celebration. It is one of the best, if not the best, restaurants I have ever been to. The staff were excellent, making us feel at home and welcome. The manager even took the time to talk to everyone in the room, which was a nice touch. The fillet steak was cooked to perfection, and the gooseberry fool was both light and tasty. I would definitely dine here again. I highly recommend it! Ver carta

Had dinner here as part of our hotel deal and I personally loved the food here. Had seared scallops as a starter followed by pan fried salmon and then a milk and white chocolate mousse. The dishes were creative, packed with flavour and not too filling. My vegetarian partner was not as impressed due to others with her main. She ordered a goats cheese and red pepper tart, but received a red pepper quiche. Had to wait quite a while for a new dish to be made. The service could definitely have been more attentive throughout as at times it was difficult to see a waitress and then to attract their attention. My review on balance is a 4, but my partner, if reviewing, would have scored it lower.

I recently stayed at the Troat Hotel, where we were treated to dinner and breakfast at their fantastic restaurant. The staff were extremely attentive, and even though we were only there for one night, the waitress remembered our names and seated us at the same table, which was a lovely gesture. The dinner was incredible, with canapes and chili bread before the starter. I had the smoked salmon, filet of brill, and pear tart, all of which were delicious and generously portioned. My partner had the pigeon, sirloin steak, and chocolate mousse, and we estimated that if we had paid for this meal separately, it would have cost us £80. The fact that it was included in our hotel package, along with c...

On our 1st visit to this restaurant we were impressed by the warm and friendly atmosphere with a traditional decor. We were shown to our table by the charming waitresses. We had pre-booked the 3 course lunch menu, 2 of us having the soup and 1 the smoked salmon all agreed that it was of a high standard. The mains gave plenty of choice I had the turkey with all of the trimmings, my wife and daughter having the lamb, the food was delicious, very well presented and plentiful. We all agreed that it was a very pleasant atmosphere and there were plenty of other patrons here, who all seemed to be having a good time, the waitresses were very good and very pleasant. the desert was delicious and the c...
