About Skew Restaurant Bishop's Stortford

Skew Restaurant Bishop's Stortford is a Mediterranean restaurant and cocktail bar in Bishops Stortford, at 4 Adderley Rd by the river. The menu centres on grilled dishes and mezze, with the Beyti kebab, the slow cooked lamb shank and chicken shish among the dishes on offer. A cocktail bar runs alongside the kitchen, so drinks and dinner share one address. A private dining room gives groups a space of their own. Tables can be booked by phone or online, and large parties can arrange to pay individually.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the Turkish-inspired grilled dishes, with the chicken shish and beyti kebab named alongside a slow cooked lamb shank. Close behind are the mezze starters, where hummus, feta pastries and chargrilled vegetables get specific praise, and one diner says the hummus stood out. Portions are described as generous, decent and very filling. Service is called friendly, welcoming and professional, with one server offering menu advice, another recommending dishes and a wine to match, and a group of seventeen praising a table set with Christmas crackers and name places and the option to pay individually. Reviewers also like the riverside setting, the terrace and outdoor dining, and the music and lighting. Several mention returning for anniversaries and family occasions, and long-term regulars say they have come for years. The one recurring caution is pace: a regular warns that drinks can take time if you are in a rush. One anniversary diner closes on a complimentary cake and limoncello.

    “We’re so lucky to have such a great restaurant in Bishop’s Stortford! We’ve been coming to Skew for over 6 years and have celebrated birthdays here too. The food is always delicious, portions are generous, and the service is consistently excellent. The staff are friendly, attentive and welcoming, and the restaurant is always clean and inviting. We also love sitting on the terrace when the weather is nice. Highly recommended — we’ll definitely keep coming back! ❤️”
