What Neil Craigie doesn't like about Bank Tavern:
I stopped by the restaurant shortly after it opened. I ordered a pint of amber bitter, but the server never spoke a word to me - no hello, no thank you - which was really strange. The first mouthful didn't have much taste, but on the second sip, I noticed a strange flavor. After a closer smell and another taste, it seemed like the beer lines had just been cleaned but not properly flushed. I ended up leaving three-qua... View all feedback. What MADDOGLEP likes about Bank Tavern:
I have been here a few times. A good real ale destination. On this visit a customer accused Ic and Flic of being Gordon the Gopher ...luckily the barman knew Flat Eric and put them straight.We had an excellent pint each of Great Corby Blonde. Good pub and like most in the area it does lots of pub food. Boss liked the wine. View all feedback.

Came in on a busy Sunday. No word from any staff. Had a beef and lamb roast for £18 each. More fat than meat on both plates. Couldn’t cut broccoli because it wa...

On a rainy evening, we went to the Bank Tavern on a whim and were so happy we did! The minted lamb shoulder was superb, and the boeuf bourguignon was a very clo...

Getting a table is down to luck it's so popular you can struggle to get a table, once you do the food and service is good.

The Bank Tavern offers a mixed dining experience with patrons either loving it or loathing it. While some praise the delicious lamb moussaka and pie, others decry the subpar quality of the Sunday roast, steak, and other dishes. Complaints range from unappetizing, poorly prepared meals to disappointing flavors and high prices. The service receives mixed reviews, with some praising the excellent service while others feel neglected by inattentive staff. The quaint atmosphere, decent beer selection, and reasonable prices draw some patrons back for repeat visits. Overall, the Bank Tavern seems to leave a lasting impression, both good and bad.
