Food is always very good and value for money. It’s always very noisy unfortunately hence we don’t visit often. They need something to absorb noise - like drapes for example

Have eaten at the Bibendum many times and the food is consistently excellent. The staff are always friendly and welcoming. However, the ambiance felt cold and and the service was slow. This may have been because it was a Monday afternoon and we were the only ones eating in the restaurant but it did spoil my visit this time.

We had such a lovely time visiting and eating at Bibendum. The service was exceptional and warm-hearted. The food was beautiful to look at and delicious to taste. Portions are generous and prices are excellent value considering the experience. Three of us had roast dinners, which were so so tasty, and the remaining meal was a chicken burger, which I am told was really tasty too. We had a dog with us, so we were seated in the bar area, but treated just as if we were in the restaurant and our doggie was given great service too, with water and dog biscuits. It's just the best place. This is my third time eating here and it has been consistently great each time. Honestly, I am running out of enthusiastically descriptive words for good! If you get a chance then please visit and eat here.
