Wow, great food, great service, I would describe this place as a gastro cafe. I had lamb rump for my main meal cooked to perfection. This is almost Michelin star quality food without the price tag associated with such A fantastic eating experience. If your looking for a change of scenery and somthing really yummy, just go and visit this place and I'm pretty sure you will visit again. The Tuning Fork is going to be THE place to eat very soon. Mark my words!
Love this place. 3 visits now and doesn't disappoint-from the decor to the service and the food, everything is good. Be prepared to work up a healthy appetite because 3 courses can be challenge. We had to doggy bag our deserts, there simply wasn't enough room! Highly recommended and would agree with previous comments that it's hard to find better in Rugby
Absolutely my new favourite place in Rugby! Food was phenomenal and staff were great. It's so refreshing seeing and talking to staff who are so enthusiastic about the place that they work and of Rugby.
I almost don't want to post this review because I want to keep this hidden gem all to myself (although looks like word is spreading!).
I can't wait to go back!
Cakes are out of this world and portions are really big!Coffee tastes great, I loved the spaciousness of the place and with the twinkling christmas lights it looks just lovely. Haven’t tried any food but certainly will in the future. And the best bit, it is just round the corner � thanks to the very nice staff �
Food is so delicious! Been lots of times now. People who complain about the price of the the cake clearly don't appreciate that this is top quality and made on site. I'm happy to pay that rather than paying for mass produced cakes that many other local cafés or eateries dish out. Staff are friendly and courteous too. Keep doing what you do best Tuning Fork!
Went last night for a meal! Loved it! The complimentary bottle of wine fab food & service excellent! Would defiantly come back again & recommend x
Called in for Lunch & Latté, excellent staff and helpful , food of very high standard and presentation. Thoroughly enjoyed my lunch
Would definitely be back and recommend 🙂
I have visited 3x in the past 2 weeks. The food is great, cakes are simply amazing and the interior is modern and appealing. Definitely recommend, great for breakfast-lunch and sneaky cake ���
The best brunch we've had in years! The food was first class, the tea & coffee were great quality and the atmosphere was light. We can't wait to come back. Lovely smiley staff too.
First visit today, amazing breakfast and coffee. Service was fantastic. Highly recommend. Will be a regular �
This was my second visit, this time with hubby whilst our son enjoyed himself at a birthday party nowhere nearby! Anyhow, I digress. It was heaving, with an assortment of Sunday lunches and people like us having drinks and cakes. My husband's pecan pie was divine. It was also ginormous. I've no issue with the prices reflecting locally sourced produce. My chocolate caramel cake had lovely flavours. One minor criticism - the cake itself was a tad dry. Usually more fat or sugar will rectify that. This won't stop me going back, perhaps next time for lunch. Great place!
4 of us dined here on a Saturday night, loved everything about it. The menu, the decor, the friendliness, the food, the wine and to finish the deserts were amazing. Will definitely be back soon.
We’ve had coffee at the Tuning Fork before (the coffee is really nice) but today we had lunch. It was easy to book a table - always a bonus, the restaurant was clean and inviting, the staff were lovely and our food was absolutely delicious! We couldn’t fit in dessert so we brought cake home for tea and that hasn’t disappointed either, the portions are ginormous!
We will definitely be coming back again to eat �
The food was amazing! Honestly one of the best roast dinners I have had on a while with a wonderful option of duck for a change! Followed by the most amazing carrot cake. Only drop one star because the service was a bit slow to begin with. It was only until our second server came along with cake did the service pick up and significantly improve as our server made suggestions on the cake and even offered us a cake menu to take home. Despite the slower service, servers were still polite and lovely, and the food is so worth returning visits! Would definitely advise booking in advance!
Great food and good service , food was fantastic every part of our meal coffees included was spot on. And coming from a cheffing background we're hard to impress. (We had a full English breakfast, gluten free pancake, and banana bread)
Dogs aren't allowed inside but plenty of outside seating for us and a dog bowl for water.
Love the tuning fork! The food is always pretty delicious the staff are so lovely, the coffee is a little hit and miss but overall it’s good. It’s best to book for breakfast at the weekend. The cakes are 10/10 and worth a trip by themselves :)
Surprisingly good stop not far from the M1. Its vibe is something like a brunch place in Northern Cali, it's that good. Loved the vegan choices too, plenty of them and our food was excellent. Food ticket time was fine, drinks slow but they were seriously busy.
Will return
Really nice place with rustic vibe. Great selection of fresh cakes, but after lunch we took cakes away as portions was big. Food was gorgeous and very quick and friendly service. It gets busy therefore would suggest booking table in advance.
I really wanted to write this review as this is the 4th time I have had the pleasure of dining at the Tuning Fork! People of rugby and surrounding areas should know of this fantastic place!
Firstly, we were welcomed at the door with a friendly smile and were quickly seen to!
We then sat at a lovely table and really enjoyed the great decor and some delicious refreshing cocktails!
We had an espresso martini, a pink gin fizz and a rhubarb and ginger fizz!!
Didn’t wait too long on the drinks - they were great.
Secondly, we then had gorgeous Sunday roasts!
we had a lamb, beef and duck dinner on our table! All of the meat was cooked perfectly and with care - very tender and flavoursome!
The flavours throughout our dishes, left us speechless with many happy eating noises!! (Lots of Yums, mmms and omg’s)
We were left very satisfied and full - we took home our delicious deserts!!
We loved our dinner today and will absolutely return to the turning fork where food is cooked with passion and love.
The chefs clearly love what they do!
Well done to the team at the turning fork!! Look forward to the pizzeria opening!!!!
Thank you Liam, Garry and the team!! X
Literally my favourite restaurant in the UK. Well-sized portions at a reasonable price with great food, a relaxing atmosphere and excellent customer service.
I Stopped here with a colleague for some breakfast. The quality of the food and service was fantastic and the coffee was great too. The cake selection also looked so delicious we grabbed a couple of slices to go. Will definitely be stopping in again next time I'm passing.
We were in the middle of a 4 hr trip and we decided it was time for lunch. We chose a place and it led us to a wonderful meal of sausages and chips for me (as the child) , Caesar salad (for my mum) and butterfly chicken (for my dad) who said it was one of the best!!
My sausages were delicious ,especially accompanied with fries and mayo. My mum commented her salad was fresh and crisp , and my dad said his was one of the best he had eaten in the WHOLE OF U.K.!!!!!!! Overall, the food (from our view) was made with a lot of love and care. This filled my appetite very well 👌,as sometimes , the portions were small in other restaurants we’ve been to. All in all, it did outstanding in every single category. Would definitely recommend!
Mum:10/10 .Dad:10/10. Me: 9999999999999/10!
(The review was written by our son but reflects everything we feel about the food 😊)
Fantastic place. The food is so delicious and fresh. Had the best hot chocolate of my life here. Was so grateful to them for squeezing us in as we hadn't booked. We accidentally drove 40 minutes in the wrong direction to eat here and it was 100% worth it!
