We tried this place partly as it looks so beautiful. Glad we did!My macaroni cheese with cauliflower was wonderfully warming and tasty. The tea was loose leaf and served with a biscotti. My companionâs croque monsieur was huge! The service was perfect, friendly and helpful. And itâs stunning in decor!The loos are clean, but upstairs so not so good if you have mobility issues. Iâll return :-)

Whatâs happening, scruffy decor in so need of a refurb, it now feels dirty and most of the seating is dirty or falling apart. The food is appalling. Itâs been good / great for years but omg , has it lost itâs way. Cocktails really good as is the service but for future sake, spend some money on the furniture and a chef that actually can cook.

Weâve booked a table for 6 with fun friends and Boleros was chosen purely because we remembered a night there before, was vibey and the staff was attentive. None of that was present with this night out. We were put on a table very far from everything but close enough to the smokers patio :((Clearly this place was understaffed because we waited 1.5 hrs for our food! The reason we were given was that there was a big party who ordered before us. Did the kitchen staff not know beforehand the numbers ? Get your act together Boleros! Hire more staff!!The waitress was lovely and offered us free wine to make up for the wait. Worcester is becoming very hip with many other trendy eateries. I think we will explore those, instead of returning to Boleros. Let me end on a positive note - the food was really good !

I gave this a great review in June. Could I revoke it? This visit we arrived after 2.30pm, not realising they had stopped service. The bar man ignored us and continued his chat to a mate at the bar. We waited for 5 mins. We eventually interrupted his chat and asked if we could sit anywhere. He curtly said Yes, and turned back to his conversation, still never greeting us or asking what we would like to drink. We chose a table and read the menus. Still he ignored us. Eventually a waitress appeared, and seemed surprised to see us. She bluntly said they were finished on food, and walked back in the kitchen. We got up and left in disgust, and still the barman ignored us! No wonder this place isnât packed! We will not be returning.

Have visited this venue twice for breakfast, and have been delighted with the choice of fare, the food quality, atmosphere, excellent service, venue cleanliness and design, and terrific value. There are few restaurants that offer this level of attention, service, and quality, even at higher prices.If you are looking for somewhere you will leave without complaint, and look forward to visiting time after time, I believe Worcester has found it for you at Cote.

5. Ostlers at No.1

Reviewed By UKAnnaP
Ostlers has changed hands and boy is that noticeable! The moment we entered the restaurant we could see it was different - cheap garage carnations on the tables, terrible artwork on the walls, inappropriate background music, poor decoration. You get the picture. Whilst the quality of food is always paramount in a restaurant (and this was indeed very good, although slow) as a dining experience, it was poor - one star. The exception was the main waitress who was excellent - helpful, efficient, friendly and polite. The young man, however, was hopeless - flappy, stressy and inefficient. He also kept blaming the kitchen at every possible point. It turns out heâs the Manager!!! My other gripe is the wine list which is extremely poor. If you ask for a glass of Prosecco (which I did) you get one of those small screw cap bottles - I couldnât drink it, it was THAT bad. The wine list is short but not in a good way - the choice was very poor. We noticed that they no longer served complimentary bread - I get it, it costs them BUT that kind of sums it all up. A new chef owner who is good at cooking but who has absolutely no idea about the rest. Despite the quality of the food, we wonât be going back. Shame.
4. fusion brasserie

Reviewed By MarkusCarlo
The car park is a little tatty and the outside of the bar/restaurant is unprepossessing, but don't be put off. The inside is charming, sub divided into smaller eating areas with imaginative "partitions" such as loose blinds which give an intimate feeling while not detracting from the overall atmosphere of the place. Our party had ordered some fizz in advance and on arrival, the staff were ready for us, in a friendly and attentive but not overbearing manner. We were there for lunch. Most had scallops to start (3 on the plate which at a tenner was good value) and I had sea food pasta - all very tasty and well presented. They do an Italian take on a roast dinner, 3 different meats, Yorkshires and roast vegetables on a platter for 2 to share. We were offered beef as a 4th meat which we took up for an additional cost but our greedy pair, as delicious as the platter was, were unable to finish it. The potatoes, while roasted are not quite like English roast spuds, this is not a criticism just an observation that they were perfectly cooked but not so crispy on the outside as is the Italian way. I had mixed fried fish, delicious and something you rarely see in England. Our party also had rib eye steaks which were (as they can be) a little fatty. Puds are wonderful with the option of having small portions if you wish. They all looked like something from Masterchef. Service was charming , not the quickest but you don't go here for a quick in and out fuel stop. The food prices are extremely reasonable. As someone who doesn't eat out much mainly because it tends to be the same old, same old, this is rather different and exquisite.

Looking forward to our first visit to Saffrons last month, having heard very good reviews.An interesting menu, excellent service, but missed the mark really. Portion size rather on the small size, and neither of us are big eaters. Maybe we chose the wrong dishes.

My first experience of Polish food at this stunning little restaurant in Bromsgrove and it certainly did not fail to impress. Really interesting menu with fabulous owners who were both passionate about their food and restaurant but above all so welcoming and attentive. It really ticked all the boxes, food, staff and ambience. Everything was beautifully presented and delightfully fresh and certainly not overpriced We will be back for more especially the walnut vodka!Thank you so much for such a brilliant review. It's absolutely brilliant to know that you enjoyed everything, especially given it being your first experience dining Polish.We look forward to seeing you again - and we'll make sure we're stocked up on Walnut Vodka!
