Best Contemporary British Restaurants in Broadstone

Me and my girlfriend visited The Ivy (Bath) for our 3 year anniversary and we were astonished by how ambient the entire restaurant felt. We booked for 8:45pm and were greeted and brought to our table immediately. We ordered the coolers which were both delicious and ordered olives to share for starters as we had been walking around the Christmas markets prior, eating food there also. For mains, I ate the duck curry and my girlfriend had the chicken which were both delicious.

My 2nd time at The Ivy in Bournemouth Square! I went with a friend and we both had a brilliant experience. The food was excellent. I can highly recommend the sea bass. It is superb and cooked to perfection 👌🏽 Our waitress, Vida was attentive, helpful and friendly. I can honestly say that this is the best restaurant in Bournemouth and the surrounding areas. The decor is delightful and a feast for the eyes. It's a wonderful and welcoming place. From the receptionist to the manager, the service is impeccable.

My second visit to an Ivy restaurant and my first in Winchester...beautiful decor. The staff, as always, so attentive, making you feel they really are there for you personally. Food was amazing; tasty & beautifully presented. Affordable but an extra special experience.

Breaking the journey to London, Holm is great. Easy parking on-street adjacent to the restaurant. Dog friendly too. Deliciously fresh trout tartare then a pappardelle with a perfectly Italian ragu enriched with chicken livers made an ideal mid-week lunch. (Even a table-side water bowl for the dog). Service was fast and we were on the way again in just over an hour.

Pleasantly surprised at the peaceful atmosphere. We could enjoy this good meal and hear each other speak, such an unusual feature as you grow older. I hear the breakfast is very good too!
