9.5/10Our waitress was delightful and even went the extra step to surprise me with a birthday candle and dessert when she learned it was my big day. The food was excellent and well priced. And it’s a charming old building. Loved everything about it.

6/10Service was exceptional however I was really disappointed with the food. Thursday evenings are always busy. Normally I come after work with colleagues and we share wine and platters. This time I had my niece and her boyfriend here from Australia and thought I would treat them to dinner. Firstly,I was served a very flat glass of Prosecco. What bar person thinks it's ok to pour a glass of prosecco without a bubble in sight. Returning it for a fresh glass was not a problem. The food however was not great. We each ordered something differed. I had the fish cakes which which were very dry. It was almost like they had re-heated them in the microwave , not to say that this happened. I was unable to eat it all. My niece had the hamburger. She said she liked the fries however her burger was also half left. To be fair, her boyfriend had the sausage and mash - he enjoyed it. He tried some of the hamburger his girlfriend had left but he too thought it wasnt the best - grisly bits had put him off. I would come back for the platters but would give ordering the main plates a miss.

9/10Another good night at Olde Wine Shades. Staff as always were friendly and attentive and we felt very well looked after (thank you ladies, you know who you are). Had a fab bottle of Malbec along with a variety of small plates, tasty and served well. Thank you to everyone, we will be back.

10/10It was a Thursday night - we had pre-booked a table for two - it was quite crowded and therefore quite noisy although the atmosphere remained relaxed. The wine and the food was very good and the waiting staff were really very attentive without being intrusive. Overall a very good experience which we will repeat if the situation allows.
