Butcher & Catch Reviews Summary

Seafood Quality

Pros:

• "The oysters were exquisite and with 3 ways to choose from, the Battered oysters were a joyful experience."
• "Menu reflects the restaurant name with a catch of the day, sea bream on the bone which was excellent."
• "A great place to have a lovely meal! Our food was fresh, very tasty, and done to perfection."
• "More unusual fish too - catch of the day was swordfish so was great to try something new."
• "The food was so tasty and flavourful."
• "The catch of the day was stunning and cooked to perfection. It came sliced and rested, well presented absolutely delicious."
• "Really enjoyed dinner here! Having meat and fish options is so helpful as it suits everyone."
• "Can honestly say this is without a doubt one of the BEST restaurants in Sheffield! Not only is the menu full of choice to suit anyone but it's locally sourced."

Cons:

• "Food was decent but not really worth the price tag - cod loin was ok, fish and chips not really up to a restaurant standard."
• "Ordered food but had been at our table a good 45 mins before our starter of oysters arrived."
• "The fish and chips, the batter was the opposite of crisp, it was doughy and dull, really disappointing."
• "Although the oysters were so so, the wood pigeon is absolutely amazing, would definitely come back to try their Venison and Lamb as well."
• "Visited here twice, the first time the food was amazing, really tasty and fresh. We came back for the fish and chips and it was a disappointment, the batter was soggy!"
• "The pie sounded nice too!"
• "Not the best oysters or scallops I'd ever had but I tasted the swordfish which was amazing!"
• "The food is ok not bad but not great, the price certainly does not justify what you get, some dishes were good, others overcooked and poor in taste."

Service Quality

Pros:

• "The service was polite and friendly and the selection of drinks was exceptional."
• "Friendly welcome from waitress who was a star throughout our visit."
• "The thing that I didn’t like was being able to hear the chef in the open kitchen giving orders in his very loud voice all night."

• "Ellie’s service was amazing, lovely girl, very friendly."
• "The staff were super friendly and explained the whole menu in detail when we arrived which was super helpful."
• "The service was on point, and so was the knowledge about the dishes and the ingredient origins."
• "The staff were very knowledgeable and helpful."

Cons:

• "The sirloin steak I ordered medium rare, and the waitress confirmed it twice with me. But I got a medium almost medium well steak on the table."
• "The service was pretty slow. I hate when you have to go to the bar to pay because you can’t find your waiter."
• "The staff couldn't do anything (not their fault) so we sat there in coats and scarves warming hands over the tea light on the table. Food almost all came stone cold."
• "Service was poor. Took 5 minutes to take our drink order then over 15 minutes later returned to take our food order."
• "The staff are very attentive and always make sure you have what you need. Bringing water out to your table is a nice touch."
• "The staff sat us on a table right next to the only other people in the restraunt at the time and thought it was odd when we asked why in these times of covid."
• "A bit overrated to be honest. Okay burgers but soggy bread and meat that lacked seasoning."
• "Very slow service even for a Saturday night. 40 min wait for starters and then order was wrong."

Ambiance and Atmosphere

• "The atmosphere was just right for a catch up with my husband, and we'll be back again very soon!"

• "Easily the best restaurant in the Broomhill area. The service is relaxed & friendly."
• "The atmosphere is relaxed and chilled, great décor, very clean and the staff are pleasant and friendly."

Cons:

• "And the thing that I didn’t like was being able to hear the chef in the open kitchen giving orders in his very loud voice all night."
• "Unfortunately we were seated just outside the toilets with no other diners so the atmosphere was lacking."
• "The restaurant itself is very noisy with only a few people in it."
• "The restaurant was freezing and not appropriately heated."
• "Unfortunately on our visit, I was unable to have the beef rib platter as they didn't have the rib in."
• "Visited here yesterday, the waiter was great at his job, very polite, opened the door for us as we left."

• "We stayed here for 2 nights, the parking was atrocious, there wasn’t a chocolate in sight, the courtyard was shocking!"
