The Porterhouse Grill & Rooms

Had a wonderful meal at the porterhouse last night. we had a steak & the pork. both meats cooked to perfection. it was around about £40 a head that was a with a glass wine, a main and a desert to share and including service charge. it seems pricey when i write this but it is absolutely value for money. you’re paying for quality. thanks so much porterhouse for a lovely meal, lovely setting and a great relaxed yet professional service and we look forward to returning soon.

Went for dinner, oddly quiet on a sunday night but food and service was overall excellent. guy serving was very informative and knew the menu very well, and despite the small menu there was some interesting items on there too. however, i did end up with a stomach ache later that night and i’m guessing it was because of the crayfish appetizer. if it weren’t for that i’d definitely give it a 5/5. the food obviously comes first before everything else and it’s a shame that this happened. i’d probably still recommend to be honest, and eat again but maybe reconsider the crayfish…

We loved this quaint hotel, not only our beautiful room with the stunning windows and sloped floor but we liked that it wasn't in the heart of the tourist area. we also had dinner here. my husband ordered an old fashioned and steak which he said was excellent. the atmosphere is casual, elegant and they have a sister vegetarian/vegan pub a short walk away (the punter).

Overall i liked this place. it was a little odd in terms of it's location and of course it is a converted pub, which explains the layout. this doesn't help the environment and atmosphere sadly which i found to be a little cold and sombre. however, the food and service was excellent. the price tag is hefty but the food was cooked very well and didn't disappoint. it was busy but not packed on the saturday night i visited. i cant help but think the price and location were key factors.

Had a great stay for just one night visiting from london. great quiet location to travel by train right by the station, away from the busy part of town but an easy walk to all the attractions. comfortable, clean room with everything we needed. the breakfast was excellent. really nice restaurant and bar to enjoy in the evening too. thank you to the friendly welcoming staff!
