![4]( "Recensione")
Recently visited Ponto on Sunday around 13:30pm.
Was welcomed by a very pretty restaurant and a polite server. However after asking how many were in our party did not guide us to an available table, just told us to look and find somewhere!
Asked another server if we were able to sit upstairs. Was very quiet and slightly abrupt however advised we could. Decided to sit upstairs, had a very pleasant view over the square.
You can order through QR codes or go up to the bar and order. We ordered through the QR. Has a very large and varied menu, appreciated the choice however felt unsure what the style of the food actually was!
Ordered a pink lemonade and a banoffee milkshake for drinks. Both delicious, not too sweet and very reasonable price.
For food we got the tapas offer. Opted for arancini, chicken wings and the mini pulled brisket chilli. We also got a pot of macaroni cheese on the side.
All of the food was delicious, the mac n cheese was creamy, arancini had an excellent texture and the chilli had a nice mild heat. The chicken wings were okay but a bit tough.
I would say the food is reasonably priced if leaning to slightly overpriced for the actual portion size.
Unfortunately no server came to check up on us and how the food was. No one saw us out either.
Overall would say had a mostly positive experience, do feel the servers could help to really make the lounge feel more like an experience rather than just a lunch stop. However the food was delicious and the restaurant is decorated beautifully.
The Ponto Lounge is a very nice place in the centre of Hull. There aren't a lot of places in Hull's centre where you can hear actually hear anything other than booming 90s music. Thankfully, this is a little oasis. A good selection of beers and very good service. Didn't try the food but will do next time.
Quirky design and great food. We opted for the tapas menu and really enjoyed the selection of what was available. Absolutely loved the whipped feta dip, will certainly be back!
Stylish yet comfortable and relaxed atmosphere in the heart of the city centre. Service is superb and the food is excellent yet sensibly priced. The menu could do to be spiced up every now and again. After 20+ visits here it's getting a tad samey. Good beers on tap and nice wines although a tad overpriced. Nice staff. They do a supeb all day breakfast that rivals Hull's best.
Really cracking vegan breakfast options, and attentive service.
The server told us politely that the wait would be around 40 mins because it was peak lunch time, but realistically it was only around 20. Will be back again
Great place for lunch on a Saturday. Not too busy, quick service and great food. Ordering was easy through a QR code, or also available at the bar.
Really good food selection including a separate vegan and gluten free menu. I'd definitely return based on this experience!
Amazing...its hard to find good quality food at affordable prices with things going up. It was amazing 11.75 for 3 tapas plates and a pint...amazing and so tasty .
Had a fab vegan menu too !
What a fabulous find! We were in the city for an event at the arena, and didn't think ahead to book a table for food beforehand. Happened upon Ponto Lounge and they managed to squeeze us in despite them being super busy.
Ordered a lamb flatbread and a salad - both were really delicious. The sweet potato fries were some of the best we've tasted. I had one of the non-alcoholic cocktails and it was absolutely lovely - I'd love to come back and try some more of the drinks menu, but I'll definitely be back again for another of the flatbreads!
The staff were great, and even though it was obviously busy, they were courteous and attentive. The decor is fab too!
Felt very lucky that a couple of the chain restaurants we had tried before this one were full, because without those setbacks, we wouldn't have found this absolute gem!
Foods great. Place is nice and trendy, but not too trendy! Prices are good. Staff also warm and welcoming. Rock solid recommendation!
Delicious eggs benedict 😍( one of the best that I had) great atmosphere and friendly staff
First time here, nice seat in the window on high chairs..Was met by pleasant staff and had the Cumberland sausage sandwich and a latte..The sandwich was gorgeous, probably one of the best sausage sandwiches I've ever tasted..highly recommend and will return..,👍
Really nice food and drink! It was a shame it was so quiet on a Friday night.
We visited for breakfast and as you walk in there is a sign which says 'wait here to be seated ' which we did for quite some time. A young lady approached looking miserable, no greeting, no smile. I asked for a table she just said "yeah sit anywhere". We order and when our drinks arrived my cup was dirty and worn so I approached the waitress at the service hatch to ask for a clean cup she abruptly told me to give her a minute which actually turned out to be about 10mins. The breakfast was delicious and we all really enjoyed it. The decor and music was great .It's just a shame about the customer service from the waitress. She did perk up a little and asked if everything was ok(perhaps she realised by the look on my face she was been narky)When we left she did manage to say goodbye!
lovely food and staff!! although there were complications with ordering (our fault, not the cafés) the staff were extremely polite and patient and clearly have the customers best interests in mind! the wait for food was no longer than ten minutes despite it being pretty packed full. it has a wide range of options and all fairly priced for the quality. absolutely gorgeous food and lovely experience, a definite recommend! cant wait to come back :)
