The restaurant has about 30 covers and is pleasantly situated on the first floor with a well stocked bar and reasonable wine list, although out of stock of John Smiths and Boddingtons the Spitfire was great. This is fine dining and all courses in our party of five were cooked to perfection. We had a choice of two starters, four mains and two sweets All the front of house students were very smart in black uniforms, they were attentive and helpful and served the food in a friendly and efficient manner. We shall certainly be back for this fine dining experience, which must be the cheapest three course meal in the area.

We arrived at the beginning of the September term and it was the first night for the students to serve paying guests. Silver service is not easy on your first night with strangers watching you but all the students performed well putting the food on the plates. It is a three course meal with two starters, three mains and two sweets, the food was fantastic, you will not eat any where better for £12.95, there is also a well stocked bar. All the students were very friendly and helpful, our table waitress Sophie was a star, even when I asked for rice pudding she did the right thing ,went to ask the chef and returned with the answer. We all enjoyed the evening and would have no hesitation in recommending Reflections Restaurant to anybody who likes good food. Give it a try and help the students in their careers.

Great service from students who behaved very professionally and who should be very pleased with themselves. Can't fault anything and special mention to Sophie for the crepes that she cooked at the table. Superb coffees to finish as well. Give it a try you cannot eat anywhere to this standard at such a small price less than £12 each.

These are young people just learning their trade but their professionalism is excellent. Today, as I have done a few times previously, I visited with my daughter who has multiple food allergies. The first time she visted with us we informed the staff well before hand details of her gluten free and FODMAP diet, the saff and students researched the diet and now keep all her details on file so that they are able to cater for her. The food today was as good as usual and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. I have also visited with a group of friends in the evenings our particular favourite evening is Burns Night. My only gripe with this lovely place is that it isnt open every lunch-time or evening.
