Two meals were served much later than the other four meals. This was embarrassing as our guests were left waiting. We had a very enjoyable evening and our waiter was very attentive without being intrusive

Great entree to start what was a spectacular Eye Fillet cooked to perfection. I used to go to Olive Tree once a year but hadn’t been for a few, so glad we went back.

The beef bourguignon has always been excellent but the time before was a little disappointing. This evening it was back to normal. Wine by the glass was most welcome. It was busy and hence a bit noisey but other wise most enjoyable

We have been going to the Olive Tree for many years, it always exceeds our expectations. The owners and staff are simply the best, and you can’t get better quality and quantity in food and beverages, especially cocktails.
