  “Absolutely delicious meal. We both chose the steak, which was cooked to perfection. Best meal we've had in a long time! Lovely small restaurant with such a cosy atmosphere and kind, welcoming staff. 10/10. Perfect.”

  “We visited Lamplight Restaurant on Wednesday 8 July, and from start to finish it was a fantastic experience. Booking was quick and easy by email, and after hearing so many good things about the restaurant, we’re pleased to say the glowing reviews were absolutely justified. For starters, we had the Chilli Prawns in Tempura Batter and the Baked Goats Cheese; both were beautifully presented and packed with flavour. For our mains, we chose the Thai Fishcake and the Vegetarian Moussaka. The Thai Fishcake was excellent, but the Vegetarian Moussaka was simply unbelievable! To finish, we couldn’t resist the Chocolate & Amaretto Trifle and the Lemon Posset. Both desserts were the perfect end to a superb meal. The food was outstanding, the staff were friendly, welcoming and attentive without being overbearing, and the location in the heart of Ashbourne makes it an absolute gem. If you’re visiting Ashbourne or the surrounding area, we can’t recommend Lamplight highly enough. It’s definitely worth a visit, and we’ll certainly be returning later this year. Great food, great staff and a great location. 👍”

  “What a lovely restaurant, food and service was exceptional. We had starters and main courses but the desserts coming out looked amazing. I had tempura prawns to start followed by duck with wilted greens and dauphinois potatoes. Absolutely delicious.”

  “Visited on 22nd July for my 25th birthday with my partner as a surprise dinner. Great service by the lady, didn't have the opportunity to get her name but she was brilliant start to finish. I ordered the baked goat cheese (V) as starter, it was rich with flavours! Everything paired very well together and as an individual ingredient! Then, got the vegetarian moussaka, which was vegan friendly and I don't really like quinoa but this dish surprised me with how delicious it was!! 😋 I would highly recommend this place for a delicious meal or maybe dinner date, we visited this place from Plymouth and if we're back, would love to come again!

  “After finding a review on google and we were visiting the area booked a table on a Saturday night. Lovely food and drink in an intimate setting. Staff very attentive and pleasant made for a wonderful time. Portions were generous but not too big. Managed starter and main and the restaurant allowed us to take our own birthday cake which we had as desert. Highly recommended 👌”

  “Couldn't ask for more from the service and quality here. Allergen indicators are clearly marked on the menu making it easy to find dairy free and vegan options (and other allergens too). The service was very welcoming, friendly and efficient. The wine we chose was delicious and the food was absolutely gorgeous. Didn't fancy a starter but in hindsight that was an error, based on how tasty everything was. The Vegetable, Halloumi & Chickpea Rice was apparently enough to convince my fiancé she could be a full time vegetarian. The Miso Blackened Salmon was perfectly cooked and full of flavour. The Chocolate St Emilion was a boozy delight of a pudding and The Spiced Plum Crumble will stick in my mind for years! Wish we could've eaten it all twice.”

  “Still going, again and again, as promised; this remains the stand-out best place to eat (IMHO) in Ashbourne! Excellent; no other word for it! Despite living locally for some time, we have never dined here - regretting that now!! One of the best dinning experiences for some considerable time. The interior looks fresh and modern; the staff are utterly professional in everything they do (well trained / very experienced); the food is exceptional in flavour, presentation, and is delivered on hot plates; finally, the menu is seasonal, so expect the dishes to change - Spring, Summer, and Autumn. As I always say: get yourself along, whether local or just passing through … I know we’ll be going again, and again! 😉”

  “Loved this place. The dining area has a spectacular wall to wall window which just draws the eye. It has a boutique feel about. The Staff were excellent the food was fantastic. I had the Coconut and Macadamia crusted salmon and it was beautifully presented and tasted even better. Well done guys 👍”

  “Restaurant situated right in the centre of Ashbourne. Parking available in several places nearby. Not wheelchair or pushchair accessible as the property has steps at entrance. Small seasonal menu. Small wine list. Service was good, very friendly and helpful staff member. Nice decor, cosy and romantic atmosphere and lovely window seating. Starters, mains and deserts are all fixed prices with the exception of the odd supplement charge, prices are very reasonable. Good portion sizes. Food was nice throughout the 3 courses we ordered. Nice local restaurant.”
