I was excited to try this restaurant after reading the reviews and must commend the chefs as every dish was exceptional, with thoughtfully crafted flavors, especially the scallops and guinea fowl. However, for a venue aspiring to a more refined experience, especially given the price point, I was disappointed by several service missteps. While the staff were friendly, they mishandled wine, beer, and water bottles by gripping them at the neck and even touched the rim of the bottle and my glass with their fingers. Additionally, they were not attentive in refilling my water, and I often had difficulty getting their attention. Overall, it was a good experience, but there are definitely areas that need improvement.

Our second time here, first time trying the grazing menu. Food was absolutely outstanding. Louis made our experience special and memorable. Sam and Sadie were very efficient too. Totally recommended. Big thank you for our Instagram competition prize.

My partner and I had a wonderful experience here last night celebrating a belated anniversary. The food was incredible - our particular favourites were the 4 courses to start and the two desserts, but we weren’t disappointed with even one dish. The service was another highlight, everyone was very attentive and polite, however one of the service staff in particular (I apologise for not remembering her name!) went above and beyond with her drink recommendations, her attitude and conversation, answering any questions we had, and thoroughly helped elevate our experience even more!

I cannot wait to come back again to try their different seasonal menus, this has been a real find and I really hope they get their Michelin star soon as they really deserve it.

Thank you for such a wonderful and memorable evening!

The Lighthouse's Summer 24' menu is extraordinary . We thoroughly enjoyed all dishes which went very well with the drinks pairing.

Every dish, from the Japanese Milk Bread with butter to the Orkney Scallop with massaman and chili lime cashews, was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented.

Overall, the Summer menu at The Lighthouse is a testament to their culinary excellence and I'm looking forward to returning again soon.
