The menu that you looked at was probably for the restaurant (upstairs) which is a bit steep, the bistro on the otherhand (the bit downstairs) is much more reasonable and well worth a look. Me and the Mrs went there at the weekend, both had two courses and a bottle of wine and the bill in total was £55 quid and so not that expensive.bigbluewolf said:I saw the prices on the Menu board outside The Post House. I doubt I will be visiting the place, looked far too expensive for me.
I've noted on this thread that there has been a mixed bag of opinion in terms of food quality and service - I have to say at the weekend it was busy but the food and service were both spot on. It was our first visit (managed to get a babysitter for the little one!). The staff were really polite and attentive and the food was really tasty. The bistro doesn't have a massive menu but then I think that maybe its strength as it seems to focus on trying to do a handful of dishes well rather than doing loads of dishes less well.
After dinner we had a couple of drinks in the cocktail lounge and then headed to the club bit. Other than the hugely impressive "firewall" (I want one!) this is probably the biggest let down of the whole place. It is really too small to be called a club and there aren't enough seating places for it to be a late bar - it doesn't seem to know what it wants to be and so just ends up looking like a collection of people hanging about not really knowing what they are supposed to be doing. Also despite the decor I couldn't help thinking that I was still standing in the job centre!
I am being harsh on that though, overall it is a great place and really somewhere that you wouldn't expect to see in Stafford. Huge thumbs up and I hope it continues to do well. Me and Mrs FDR will certainly be back.
