Porters Bar & Restaurant

1. I think it is a place with potential but there were a few things that made me rate it badly. The first thing I didn’t like was the food. I ordered a Caesar’s salad which by default cannot be bad. However the chicken had a terrible smell. So terrible that I put it aside and after eating fast I asked the waitress to take my plate because it was really smelly. I told that my chicken was smelly and what I got as an answer was something like it is normal because of the plastic wrap. 15 years as a butcher I have seen this smell only to chicken that has gone bad. In my opinion this chicken shouldn’t have been served in the first place. One more thing that was not nice is that no one apologized for this situation which as a professional you should do.
   The drinks were good but besides that I would say that this place needs a lot of work to become as the reviews suggest it is.

2. I booked Porters for my mom’s 80th birthday and was so impressed with the whole process. The team were very supportive of our large booking (35 people) and as I submitted our order in advance the food was piping hot when we were ready for it.
   They supported with putting up decorations and setting up a cake table.
   The servers were very lovely. The food was very good quality and not a single complaint from the table. I would definitely recommend Porters for a party or special occasion! Thank you!

3. We went for a family birthday meal as a party of 13. They asked for a £10 deposit per person and asked for our orders before hand. This allowed them to provide excellent service and they even accommodated those that wanted a last minute pudding on the night! Super friendly staff, really approachable and attentive. Every single person was delighted with their meals and we all said it was the tastiest meals we’ve had. Don’t feel like you need to go with your “safe” meal choice because they’re amazing at absolutely everything on their menu! We all had an amazing night and will defo be back. Thank you!!
