The Old Bank restaurant presents a complex tapestry of dining experiences that have left patrons divided. While many cherish the inviting atmosphere, attentive service, and imaginative dishes, others have encountered significant disappointments. Complaints include long wait times, subpar food quality, and miscommunication regarding menu options, particularly for dietary restrictions. However, some guests laud their positive visits, praising the freshness of dishes and reasonable pricing. Despite the inconsistency, the restaurant's charm and location in Old Town remain appealing. The overarching sentiment is that improvements are necessary to restore its former glory, promising potential if management addresses the concerns raised.
