Our first visit to Cattle & Cocktail. Firstly - the name is ugly! Our lobster linguine was sadly lacking. For example, described as "with cherry tomatoes", my portion contained just one, albeit in 2 halves! The lobster was sparse & chewy. Our neighbouring table was served the wrong steaks. When the correct order was delivered, they were incorrectly cooked and the fries were forgotten - & not asked for - until their meal was virtually over. The 'service' was willing enough, just not up to much. There were very few tables occupied but then it was midweek but we found it lacking in atmosphere. Pity!

Friendly place and still working on improving service. Half price steaks on a Monday which was pleasant surprise. Worth checking website for other special offers during week.

Visited on a Monday night so steak at 50% off - I'm sure when we visit again it would be busier - great food but serving staff seemed quite bored and we were an inconvenience to them!

The restaurant is decorated really nicely and the staff were very friendly and attentive, but not over the top. The menu was really varied, with some nice sides and extras to choose from. The steaks were fairly tender, but cooked to perfection. I would recommend Cattle and Cocktail to others.

Great service lovely lunchtime menu and nice ambience, our waitress was as lovely as she always is and I'm very peaked to see they have extended their opening days to include Monday. Keep it up cattle and cock tail!!

Sent back steak to be cooked some more and came back exactly the same. When I pointed it out to the very nice waitress she immediatley offered me a free pudding which begs the question how often does this happen? Very noisy. Obviously very popular but not for me. Won't be going back.

Cocktails poor and too much ice , steak lacked flavour, rushed to leave to make room for more customers , prices as you'd expect but would not be in rush to return

The service is poor. There is no management lead in this restaurant. They have a captive audience coming. The venue is decorated and well laid out. The staff haven't been trained, are not consistent and slow. They need to improve this otherwise they will not have return customers.

Food was OK-isch, certainly not what we hoped for. Ambiance was nice, but again not maxed the potential of the location. Dessert menu was presented on a pulposus piece of A4 paper. All together OK-isch at best

Good steak but some sketchy service let's it down. Wine list is limited and choice of starters small and quality of these questionable. Nice staff though and a nice vibe

Nice place, decent atmosphere. Food was average, we had to send back my husband's steak but they dealt with it well. More waiting staff were needed on the whole.

Excellent Meal and attentive service from the staff. The only downside was the acoustics as it was very noisy as the chatter and laughter seemed to bounce off the walls and reverberate around. But a good evening nonetheless

Food good but a rather rushed experience. A forced 7pm booking and we were finished by 7.50pm with the courses coming too quickly, not giving time to digest .

Once again a lovely evening with great cocktails, food and friendly helpful staff. I would like to suggest though that the menu changes sometimes or perhaps there is a specials board, but I have nothing to complain about.

Service wasn't so good although our waitress was friendly. Service was slow and management didn't look so happy. Cocktails were great as always. Bar very busy which is slightly off putting. Should have a separate bar to the restaurant.

Cocktails didn't arrive until after our meal and wine had arrived. Lobster was good, not enough sauce (only had hollandaise). Would have preferred Thermidor and a wedge of lemon. Had to ask for a finger bowl- but no napkin provided. My friend had the filet steak, tasty but 'stringy'. Only one toilet per gender??

Very good value meal with quality ingredients well prepared and tasty. Steak was well cooked and served exactly as requested. Prawns were tasty and succulent and chunky chips, salad and creamed spinach all great. Excellent service by friendly staff. Only issue unfortunately was the noise level. The restaurant acoustics make it a pretty noisy venue which is a real pity. Some noise absorption materials on the ceiling and walls could make a big difference.

The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and staff were very friendly. The cocktail list gives you loads of choice. My only criticism would be the steak was a little overcooked. Not hugely, but more than ideal. Will definitely go again though.

Food was good and the atmosphere in the restaurant was good my only comment was the delay between starters and arrival of main course. However the staff were very pleasant and as it is a new venture I am sure that the teething problems will be ironed out.

Lovely decor, and nice staff. Food was delicious. Amazing cocktails. Only constructive criticism I could give would be that the service between courses was too quick, we saw most people being delivered their main courses a couple of minutes after finishing their starter which never gives a good impression. It's not meant to be fast food so it shouldn't be served as such. Drink service was great at 7pm but got slower as the evening went on which isn't great for the customer to be thirsty and is also lost revenue for your business. I think a warmer welcome could be given when guests arrive as well as this was again a little bit rushed. We had a really lovely evening but it was definitely too rushed. Our taxi driver also commented that lots of people have commented to him that service was too slow but our experience was the opposite. We will definitely return though as the food was delicious and the staff were lovely.
