Reviews The Adamson

We visited The Adamson during the Easter break after our visit the Eden Mill. We’d heard many great things on twitter and so booked a table. The team at The Adamson had just recently opened their new cocktail bar so we just had to try that out as well. Unfortunately for me I was designated driver for the day but Mr Edinburger and his dad made good work on the cocktails and gin.

Beautifully presented dishes. Can recommend the scallop entrée and the lamb main. Extra vegetables were required, and the brocolini tasty. Excellent wine list. Staff welcoming and helpful. Price range; £££ worth it, though. Excellent cocktail bar, too

Great appetizers and great drinks. The staff is great as well. Go visit the bar as well as the restaurant. Definitely worth visiting!

We ate here the other night and we enjoyed our meal. We were 1 hour early for our booked table but they were kind enough to give us a table. We asked to sit outside. The table was very small for the 4 of us and the chairs weren’t that comfortable. The staff were very friendly. However, they could be a little better with their service. Once we got our table my wife and dad went to the toilet and we were immediately asked if we were ready to order drinks. I thought it was a bit premature of them asking as the whole party wasn’t there. We got water and bread for the table and asked the waiter to come back in a few minutes. Before our mains, staff walked past our table a number of times and didn’t collect our bread board which we had clearly finished. When our mains arrived the waiter realised that one little table wouldn’t fit all our meals so he awkwardly pulled another over with his hands full. The bread board was still there so the waitress had to do a swap with me. I feel that this awkwardness could have been avoided if the staff were a little more on the ball with the tables and clearing the used board before serving the mains. The food itself was really good. I got the fillet steak which lovely. However, I asked for medium rare but it was definitely more on the medium side. I also thought it was very small considering how expensive it is. I got truffle and parmesan fries with it which were ok. They were bog standard fries with Parmesan sprinkled on top. I couldn’t taste the truffle. My wife got fish and chips. She said the fish was delicious and the chips were fine. My mum got the prawn linguine which she really enjoyed and couldn’t fault. My can’t remember the name of the vegetarian dish my dad got but he said it was nice. For dessert I got the chef’s physician which was incredibly tasty (just wish there was more of it), my mum got a meringue dessert which was also lovely and my wife got sticky toffee pudding which was scrumptious. Overall, we had a good meal. Staff are very friendly but service could be improved. I also believe that it was a bit expensive.

Cocktails with friends. Good range of drinks but nothing for those who like sweeter drinks. Staff helpful trying to pick something my friend would like. The drinks themselves were all really well presented. My only (very small) complaint was that the lighting seems to brighten then dim every few minutes and once you notice, you can't un-notice!

Incredible evening at The Adamson, I can see why it's so popular! The staff was so friendly with recommendations and suggestions, and we had such a wonderful dinner here. The oysters and steak were definitely the highlight of the meal, and I would certainly recommend them to anyone.

It was our first time at the Adamson, I really enjoyed it. The service was very good, very attentive and professional. The food was also great, very well presented, steak frites was super tasty.
