Reviews in Leighton Buzzard

We visited twice before Christmas and on both occasions, both the staff and food were excellent. We look forward to returning very soon.

Lovely food lovely setting wonderful stuff what more can I say really except we will be back.

The six of us all really enjoyed our meals. The customer service was excellent, as usual. Thanks to everyone at The Cottage

Lovely, cozy atmosphere with great food and service. Celebrated the Prosecco lunch with friends and we all enjoyed excellent food with generous portions including excellent desserts. Really enjoyed our time at The Cottage and would thoroughly recommend!

Top notch once again. From the delicious giant shrimps to the perfectly cooked fillet steak medallions. Many thanks.

Lovely meal for 6 for our daughter’s birthday. I recommend the gamberoni starter especially.

Beautiful food as always. Service was attentive, one of the waitresses seemed like she may have been on her first shift and seemed to need a little extra training but it did not impact our meal or put experience of the evening. Highly recommend to anyone! We would have liked some garlic bread to go with our mains but unfortunately there wasn’t any on the menu.

What a lovely little restaurant ! Friendly staff and great food at reasonable prices . We love it so much we travel from Northamptonshire to eat here !

We have been multiple times - always at lunchtime when it is normally quiet and that suits us. The food is lovely, the service and conversation (did I say it was quiet?) adds to the meal. I think we have eaten through most of the menu and not been disappointed.

A first meal at the Cottage for daughter's birthday and it won't be the last. Excellent service and a well thought out menu and selection of specials. The food was in proper portions and nicely presented in plates and bowls that Nonna would be proud of, Though she might be scandalised /amused by the tiramisu in a plant pot. Great value and just a slight drop down for atmosphere because it was too quiet. This was due to not enough patrons in at the time so not really the restaurant's fault.

First time been to this restaurant. Not disappointed in any way. Food was absolutely delicious. Owner extremely pleasant and sociable. Will definitely go again to try other things on menu. Recommend everyone to try.

Excellent, authentic Italian restaurant. I have visited this restaurant quite a few times and every time it is a great experience I have tried a lot of dishes on the menu and they are all delicious. The staff are friendly the restaurant has a nice feel to it. Would highly recommend.

Excellent meal and very good service.

The Boot was OK 10 years ago and hadn't been back since. I do hate to say this . . the Sunday Roast was the worst one in my life and I'm 80. The roast Lamb was inedible the only things missing were the nails. Such generous portions, just like two very thick shoe soles half an inch thick. The Yorkshire was a mound of fresh air and dark brown. We were asked if everything was alright and just quietly nodded our heads . .why? it was supposed to be a Celebration and we just didn't want to be the last nail into our own coffin to ruin the day. So sad.

Excellent service and food. Will definitely return.

Not what I expected at all. For what is supposed to be a trendy and modern pub, this venue is dreadful. I visited last week and will not return. I strong advise that you don't go here. The food was possibly the worst pub grub I have ever had and extremely expensive for what we got. The staff were also very rude. When I complained that my pint had not been filled to the pint line the person serving me started arguing and getting extremely boisterous. On another occasion, I asked a waitress for ketchup. She completely ignored me and carried on with what she was doing. The only positive thing I have to say about this pub is it is located in a beautiful setting and the interior is very nice. However, both the staff and the food spoilt my visit and I shall not be returning. I really do not know how this place has got its name. STAY AWAY FROM THE GROVE LOCK!
