"The new Dunkirk how disappointing very sad 😔 food was very poor."
Service
Pros:
"Lovely place for a meal or just a few drinks, friendly and helpful staff."
"One of our party didn’t realise that she couldn’t order off the usual menu and said she would just have some bread and butter but the staff made her exactly what she wanted off the main menu."
"The staff were very welcoming, attentive and friendly."
"The attention to detail and attentiveness of the front of house staff even when they are busy."
"The staff kindly moved us somewhere quieter as I'd requested due to my Grandad being hard of hearing."
"The staff were, friendly, welcoming, professional and do go the extra mile to ensure you have everything you require."
"Staff well trained and faultless service."
Cons:
"Service was good but the food took a while to appear."
"Presumably because it's so popular - there was lots of waiting, even for one drink."
"Service was super friendly but it look a little while for them to take our food order."
"Had a 30 minute wait for dessert though. Waitress forgot we had ordered."
"We were not looked after as much as I think we should have been."
"We were told politely by the waitress to quieten down which put a damper on our mood which is a bit disappointing really."
"Booked a table for food two weeks ago. Turned up today and not only did they not have our booking in, but turns out they had decided to stop serving food yesterday."
Atmosphere & Decor

"The Dunkirk itself is a beautiful building, very well decorated and befitting such a fabulous restaurant."
"The atmosphere and decor is also excellent."
"The upstairs restaurant has a lovely ambience."
Cons:
"Only issue was the front door was too narrow for our buggy. I presume a wheelchair would have a similar problem."
"Very noisy.very busy bar.our party wast downstairs adjacent to bar.staff harrased."
"The specials board had limited availability by 6.30pm Saturday."
"Also rather unpleasant aroma around the loo area."
"Would have given it 5 stars except we were put in the 'Snug' which is a smallish back room with no windows."
"Myself and my partner called one Sunday afternoon and arrived at 18:05. My partner asked what time they stopped taking orders and we were told 18:00."
"The new Dunkirk how disappointing very sad 😔 food was very poor. Pub has been spoilt with new decor."
Value for Money
Pros:
"Very good food at fair prices."
"Go there if you are hungry and you will not be disappointed. It is good value for money and you are very likely to be able to relax and have a laugh."
"The food was excellent at all levels with reasonable prices."
"The staff were freindly and attentive and the place is lovely and extremely resonably priced."
"For 6 people just a little over £200 for me was very good value for thus level of quality."
"The food was absolutely delicious. Beautiful presentation and very reasonably priced."
"The menu and standard is well above standard pub fayre but still well priced."
Cons:
"Be aware of all the extras as they soon add up."
"Good selection of food. A bit on the pricey side but well worth it."
"Just had a drink today which was a bit more pricey than some places."
"The 10oz Rump is £22 which is reasonable but to then charge an extra £4 for one mushroom, one onion ring and one half grilled tomato on top of that is asking far too much."
"Overall, prices were on the large side and portions on the small side, and not sufficiently compensated by quality."
"Nice meal. Plumped for a small steak. I'm not used to going out for an evening meal so I found the food was more expensive than I'm used to."
"It would have been nice if they had offered to reduce the bill. This didn't happen and was quite disappointing as we had booked it because of a friend's recommendation."
