Customer Review Summary
Diners most often single out the small plates, with the langoustines, pork belly, and hake repeatedly named as standouts, while the Estate Stack and shakshuka with chorizo also earn frequent praise. The hummus and cheese platter are called out as particularly good for sharing, and the beef cheek and hot salmon on toast are highlighted in other positive accounts. Several describe the service as attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere as lively yet comfortable, with views of Union Gardens and a relaxed playlist adding to the experience. A few note the gluten-free menu but mention some dishes cannot be adapted. One reviewer reports a Christmas lunch where the team provided consistent care.

“First time at the Wild Goose, and it didn't disappoint! Couldn't recommend it enough! We got a selection of "small plates". I'd recommend at least 5 for 2 people, as the "small plates" aren't that small. The langoustines, pork belly and hake were our favourites, but we enjoyed every single plate! The service was 10 out of 10!! From the moment we stepped in to the moment we left, the two ladies who served us were phenomenal, attentive and chatty! And for a Saturday night, it had a great buzz but wasn't too busy or overwhelmingly loud. We will absolutely be back!!”

“Came here in the evening and it was lovely, I had the hot salmon on toast and my partner had the lamb with pesto. Both dishes were gorgeous! The interior was stunning both inside and with the lovely view of Union Gardens. Servers were lovely and attentive.”

“Came here because it had a gluten free menu for my best friend. We both ended up ordering from the GF menu. A little gutted to see that some dishes couldn’t be adapted to GF - particularly the sausages which are actually better quality when …”

“Delightful atmosphere, beautiful restaurant. We had the Estate Stack snd Shakshuka with chorizo and both were 10/10. Steak in the Estate Shack was beautifully seasoned and well cooked. …”

Location
How this listing is sourced
- Where the data comes from
- Name, address, hours, contact details, amenities, ratings and review counts come from the business's publicly available profile data — not from the owner and not from paid submissions.
- How it stays current
- Every listing is re-checked on a recurring crawl, and anything reported as wrong is corrected at the source rather than patched on the page.
- How it is ranked
- Placement is never sold. Every business on the page is ordered and compared using the same public signals, so an owner cannot pay to move up.
