Customer Review Summary

Table service is the most frequent draw, with reviewers describing friendly, attentive staff who checked in regularly and made cocktails off piste to one diner's preference. Mussels come up repeatedly, described as huge and large and served with fries. Close behind are the croque monsieur, the fish curry and lamb, and the hummus starter platter. Lattes and coffee also earn praise, including oat and skinny versions. The menu spans pie, Thai curries and Mediterranean kebabs, and one party with allergies felt in safe hands. The complaints are small but specific. The fish and chips and braised pork were slightly underseasoned, the mango sauce with the cauliflower starter was a little too sweet, and a stacked Sunday roast left the potatoes, carrots and parsnips on the soggy side. One takeaway cake disappointed, one diner found the croque rich, and one found lunch a bit noisy. A restaurant dog wanders the floor, and one diner noted that staff even warmed the restaurant up for them.

    “Enjoyed an anniversary meal here. Fish and chips was great, did feel slightly under seasoned but nothing salt couldn't fix. Same with my partners braised pork, quality food but again slightly underseasoned. Don't let that stop you coming as 99% of everything was perfect. Tom was a great server and deserves a pay rise!”

    “Evening dinner for an 18th Birthday Celebration. The vibe was relaxed and friendly. The service attentive and well timed. Food was of a high quality and between our party we sampled a lot of what was on offer. Everyone agreed that the food was tasty, well prepared and well presented. Cocktails for my 18 year old were made ‘off piste’ to his preference and went down really well. It seemed nothing was too much trouble. We were made to feel special and welcome. A faultless experience, thanks guys we’ll definitely be back.”

    “I visited TN1 today with my friend Keith and had a couple of coffees along with a sausage muffin. I was genuinely impressed from the moment we walked in. The atmosphere was incredibly welcoming and relaxed, it honestly felt like being at home. The whole place has such a friendly vibe, making it somewhere you can easily sit back and enjoy your time. The service was outstanding too. Both of the waitresses were fantastic, especially Izzy, who along with her colleague made sure we had everything we needed and checked in regularly without ever being intrusive. Their friendly approach really added to the experience. As for the food, it was exceptional. I had the sausage muffin and it was absolutely delicious, full of flavour and cooked perfectly. Combined with great coffee and such a warm atmosphere, it made for a really enjoyable visit. I'll definitely be returning and would highly recommend TN1 to anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere.”

    “This was our first time at TN1 and we are kicking ourselves for not trying it sooner!! The food was utterly delicious!! Everything had a real depth of flavour and came out piping hot! Prior to booking, we had read reviews and noted a common theme regarding ‘good service’ but not sure we were expecting the exact experience we had! All of the table staff were friendly, but more than that, were genuinely interested in us, what we thought of the food, and making sure we had everything we needed! We have to give a special mention to Will and Tom, who really looked after us!! What a brilliant experience!! We are looking forward to our next visit already!”

    “Choose the restaurant as we had a free drink voucher, (we were visiting the Trinity theatre ) So glad we visited. The staff were very helpful and informative. Great selection on the food and drink menu. The food was served quickly and well presented. It was delicious, probably the best hummus I've tasted ( starter platter) . The portion of mussels was large well cooked and with fries ashamed to say I couldn't finish it all. Coffee was excellent to finish.”
