Incredible food, some of the best local food I've experienced. The chef clearly puts time and effort into his creations and they are wonderful, well worth going as you will not be disappointed. The service is also excellent, really makes you feel at home. They clearly spend time sourcing the best ingredients, the mussels were huge and some of the best I've had. If you're in the area, you simply have to go to The Old Bank.

Booked here on the recommendation of my brother and his wife who live in Lynton; they actually came with us which was great. The restaurant is not dog friendly, during our visit we saw at least 2 groups of people turned away because they have dogs so be aware of that. There is no parking for the restaurant however Lynton has a variety of large car parks available which you can pay for through the app Ringo. On entering the restaurant itself we were warmly welcomed and seated, we received a Lindor chocolate on arrival which was a great touch! The menu is well presented with the different cuts of meat explained but if you do have any questions just ask the friendly staff who are clearly experts and very happy to help. This is not an inexpensive restaurant but when you sample the quality of the food which is of the highest order I’m sure you will appreciate that quality of this magnitude comes at a slightly higher price. They have a large variety of differing cuts of steak as well as some fish dishes and a non meat option should you require that. I chose to have the fillet steak cooked medium rare, one of the best steaks I have ever eaten! Proper melt in your mouth and so tasty! I added the standard fries, roasted carrots and seasonal greens as well as peppercorn sauce. The food was all simply amazing! What we didn’t expect was to receive the most amazing sweet potato and chilli soup while we waited for our mains as a compliment from the chef! For dessert I had the chocolate delicious or something similarly named for dessert, again absolutely amazing! Also the presentation was out of this world, see my video as part of this review. All through our experience the staff were simply amazing, the food was glorious and the establishment itself was very aesthetically pleasing. Based on this experience I think you’d be mad not to get a table here. I certainly aim to visit again.
