Bistro 21 Description

Way out in the sticks at Aykley Heads, Bistro 21 is able to aim at a rather different cuisine to that prevailing in the city centre. The cleverly converted farmhouse offers an intimate and friendly atmosphere in which fine food seems naturally at home. House wine at £11.50.

Fixed Lunch

  • £14 (2 courses) to £16.50 (3 courses)

Your Reviews of Bistro 21

Local Resident (19 March 2008)

In a pre-booked party, I was served last. I turned away the offering as I had pre-booked something else. The same dish was bought back to me by two different waiters – this left me appalled. The service was really bad.

Nadine (2 May 2007)

We visited Bistro 21 in April. It was overall a very disappointing experience. On the positive side: service was good and they make an excellent gin and tonic.

For the price you pay the food was poor. I had confit of duck which was overcooked and bland. My partner's steak was ordered blue but served medium and the meat quality was below average. Starters of oysters and spring rolls were OK but not special.

Two courses each and a bottle of average wine came to over £50 per head. Fine if you are a decent restaurant in London or an outstanding restaurant elsewhere in the UK but completely unacceptable for the below average fare we were served.
