Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
The Bobbin delights with its "absolutely stunning food" and "excellent Italian wine." Diners appreciate its friendly atmosphere and attentive service, particularly praising Victor's helpfulness. With cozy ambiance and a lovely garden space, it's perfect for any occasion. Some suggest more veggies with roasts, but overall, satisfaction abounds.

    Super roast dinners, the roasties were crisp and the meat was so tender. Gravy/red win jus was also amazing. Very delicious desserts too. Service took a bit of time but it was prime time during a Sunday service so that can be forgiven. Great atmosphere.

    This is normally a staple and positive visit. Today it was dysfunctional and disorganised.

    We always enjoy it here and today was no different. Really nice buzz… constant chatter without it being overly loud, great service, and super food. I had the roast pork belly, others on our party had the beef. Both super! Had the apple and blackberry crumble for dessert. Highly recommended.

    We booked for 4:15pm for Sunday roast. We were called at 4:14pm to be told the kitchen would be shutting at 4:30pm and had to order. If they'd informed us when we booked, we would've moved the booking but felt very rushed. Roast beef wasn't great nor was service, we had to go up to the bar to order more drinks and to ask for the bill.

    Generally ok however, we were sat in the conservatory which had two entrances which people kept walking through and leaving the doors open - felt like being in a barn, impacted on the otherwise good experience. Wholesome food, portions perfect and well presented, not too much on the menu which suggested all freshly prepared and not heated from a freezer. Staff attentive and were able to add a seat at short notice which was really kind.
