Was Anonym at REIDS a mag?
we visited a travel zoo voucher on Monday night and were very satisfied with the food and service. it was very quiet, only we and another table. the decoration is beautiful and although a limited vegetarian choice. two starters and one main choice. but it was very delicious. we had between us the spicy carrot soup, the beetroot carpacio and the cauliflower steak. I've never had so nice flowers and I doubt again! the... View all feedback.
What Anonym dislikes about REIDS:
We had Xmas day here. £75 per head. We were put in the functions room which to me spelt danger from past experiences there. You just don't get the same service in this room. Even though the 3 courses were well presented the mains weren't that great. Turkey far to thick and dry. Our table was never cleared of glasses which made eating more difficult. Think the waiting staff were friends of staff as we're just told to... View all feedback.

Located in the heart of the city, this restaurant has convenient access to public transportation. The food is delicious and the restaurant is a great spot to gather with friends.
I absolutely loved my visit to this restaurant! I organized a lunch with my friends and the staff was extremely accommodating. They were all friendly and efficient. The restaurant was clean and tidy, including the toilets. The prices were very reasonable, considering the high quality of the food we had. I would definitely go back for another meal.
This was our first time at Reid’s. eating was really nice, steak was slightly underboiled (for medium rare, but less rare). my cocktail came after our starters arrived. I had to ask twice for the cocktail. the service was really poor, had to ask twice for the drink. when our head arrived, they forgot the garlic bread, so we had to ask and also had to ask for steak knives. the waiter didn't seem really interested. there were 3 large groups, however, so that we gave them the advantage of the doubt. not sure we're coming back.

Get in quick ! After the stress of covid, Reids re opened after a refit and it was well worth the wait...trouble is, its closing for good some time next year.. We went for a Sunday lunch and were surprised to find how quiet it was considering the food was delicious, fresh, hot, plentiful and well served... we had the roast sirloin, roast potatoes, veg and the biggest Yorkshire pudding I've ever seen ! The gravy was delicious, obviously made with the beef juice... Rounded off with delicious lemon tart served with a zingy raspberry sorbet. Really good food served by good staff...
Just had Sunday lunch with the family and I have to say food was excellent. It was fairly quiet which is surprising considering the quality of the food and it’s not expensive for what you get. This is our second visit and both times have been great. Waitresses were also very good and helpful.
We was waiting a while for desert and drinks but we was okay with that as it was mothers day and they was busy, there was a nice lady singing and the manager still give us a round of drinks for free always enjoy my food and time whiles there
Mothers day was a real treat, restaurant was lovely with a roast to die for. Service was good albeit a very busy day. I can thoroughly recommend the food and friendly staff. A singer, free glass prosecco and a lovy balloon made it even better, well done to the chefs don't know how you do it.
My husband and myself had sunday lunch here and can honestly say its one of the best with tender meat, fresh perfectly cooked veg so nicely put together on the plate with request of exra gravy which actually tasted of meat juices rather than the usual slop you get most other places. All topped off with a big fat yorkshire pudding (not just for roast beef) melt in the mouth pecan pie and bannana ice cream was delicious. Waitress attentive and charming...we will be back!

Food was lovely, Staff were lovely to customers. But the young lady who was serving us seemed to be rushed off her feet and was trying to help everyone when others seemed to be just standing around. We asked 3 different people for table water and finally got a glass of water just before we asked for the bill. When we asked one member of staff for a drink she turned around to the young lady who was serving us all evening and barked orders at her then proceeded to just stand there. An overall nice evening but staff needed to be better to each other.
We had a lovely girly catch up . The young man that served us was very polite and very helpful. The food was amazing as always. We love going to Reid’s regularly due to the friendliness of all staff and the lovely food.
Yes, I would definitely recommend this venue to friends. Our server, Tom R, was DELIGHTFUL. Courteous, unobtrusive, but there when you needed him. Nothing was too much trouble; not that we caused any, I hope! His mum should be extremely proud of him, as I’m sure she is! Food was piping hot and well-cooked. I asked for extra dressing- there in a flash. The lunch time 2/3 course menu is a steal and well worth having. Asian fish cakes were delicious. First time of visiting, I went with my hard-to-please 22 year old son. He was most happy! I’m considerably older and I loved it, too. Will visit again and again.

The restaurant has a charming atmosphere with welcoming bar staff always ready to assist and friendly door staff. They have music playing on Saturday nights.
