Excellent experience at the Tickled Trout. The tapas was by far the best we've had in the UK and it's not far from where we live now so even better. We will return.

Fantastic from start to finish! Lovely welcome, beautiful modern-but-cosy interiors set the scene for wonderful meal with family. Our large table was accommodated with plenty of room. Bar staff were attentive and helpful, giving recommendations and inclusive of the children with their drinks orders. Same for the wait staff, we were given recommendations and suggestions suited to our tastes, there was something for everyone on the menu, a varied selection and we didn't have to wait long for service and the food was incredible! There isn't one dish I wouldn't rate 5 stars. Jimmy was fantastic throughout the whole experience, a real friend. We can't wait to visit again.

Staff were really welcoming, friendly, and helpful with food and drink choices. The restaurant is small but had a nice feeling, the music playing was good. The food was generally very nice and tasty, with lots of choices; although I had the pork belly and was a little dry and cut a bit thin on some lettuce, which made the whole plate a bit dry, a drizzle or sauce would have made it a lot nicer. We did, however really enjoy our meal, my husband loved all of his plates! The price of the meal and drinks was a little expensive in comparison to other tapas restaurants we’ve been to but overall we really enjoyed the meal and drinks and would definitely visit again.

Wonderful place! Great service! Food was good but a couple of adjustments could be made to make it even better in my opinion, the bread for dipping quite obviously wasn't fresh and had either been defrosted or come straight from the fridge as it was ice cold to touch and felt/ tasted a little stale .....that aside, what a lovely experience. Will definitely be returning and hoping for some fresh bread for dipping

Saturday on a bank holiday weekend was going to be busy. But some noise screens suspended from the ceiling might help. Also, people smoking outside the door - meant smoke was drifting in. All in all, loved the place and will be back.

The food was gorgeous and the bottomless brunch very good value but our afternoon/evening was abruptly ended due to a private party which were not informed about when we ordered a bottle of Prosecco. We were told we could take our drink outside! We didn’t and stayed until we finished but it put a downer on what would have been a fabulous experience
