    I was a bit disappointed with the Ivy. The staff were lovely and warm and friendly and pretty good at keeping up with our various drinks orders and requests for water. Nice buzzy atmosphere on a Sunday lunchtime. But unfortunately I thought the food was not that great (for the price) and definitely not value for money. I had asked for a steak medium and it appeared well done. The chips were a bit cold and I think had been sat around for a while. My husband's roast chicken was very dry. The vegetables were nice and al dente but again lukewarm. The steaks didn't come with any chips so everything had to be ordered as side dishes. Puddings were good though! For the price we paid I was just underwhelmed with the quality of cooking.......

    Dear Emma, We’re sincerely sorry to hear the food was not up to our usual standards. Though it is good to hear you enjoyed good service and a warm welcome, the food should have matched this initial impression. We will certainly review the areas in need of improvement and hope we’ll get a chance to redeem ourselves in the future. Kindly, The Ivy Clifton Team

    Despite initial concerns about only being able to book a late table it proved to be a great evening and perfect way to see in the New Year. Lovely food, great atmosphere and welcoming happy staff from start to finish

    We had a 70th birthday lunch at the Ivy Clifton, and it was a really good experience. Food, service and general ambience were all excellent, with a few extra touches (e.g. flowers on the table, extra dessert) laid on as well. Definitely recommend.
