OK All.....

I am susprised I haven't posted this before.....

That is the place that I like to visit from time to time, food is utterly amazing and I really love it!!!!

The man has cooked for the queen before, which is most impressive....

Unlike most places, the waitresses don't say "the beef is nice"..... they say "the beef is nice because **insert chef thing here**" - effectively, the highlight of No5 is the chef, the man who makes the food....

They didn't just build a restaurant here and then hire a chef......
They had a chef and built a restaurant because of him......


Opposite the prison...... Well worth a trip..!

Went to this restaurant last night, and whilst the food was very commendable and very very good, I have to note that I didn't think much to the customer service at all. What are other people's thoughts on this if and when they have visited




Admin edit: merged threads :)

don't mention the blinds
Blimey and there's i thinking they'd shut down. Only dined there once and was not welcomed in, no enquiry to see if all was satisfactory and at the end not thank for even going there and parting with over 75 quid for two of us.Needless to say i've not returned ....

I'm never been to No 5 Goal Mews. Is it anywhere near Gaol Mews?




sorry.
Sorry to rain on your pedantry parade, but I've merged this thread with an earlier, and correctly titled, one ;)

Everyone's a critic over the spelling!!!!!

Nice place, nice food, unsure of the service.

I'm going to try to link to a previous thread. If it doesn't work, look for the one about looking for somewhere to go for Xmas lunch with work, by Tek Monkey. Number 5 was discussed there. Here goes http://www.staffordforum.com/viewtopic.php?id=8498

I've only ever been for a Christmas do - which was alright, but hardly the kind of experience to draw more general conclusions from.

A bon viveur of my acquaintance always speaks highly of the place.

I have been several times, but not for a few years now. Pretty much since we had kids as its easier to get a babysitter on a week night and No5 took to opening about 2 hours a week. Well maybe just Thur/Fri/Sat evenings. LOL
Anyway the food was always nice, but its towards the upper end of the scale price wise. Well it was back then, but things could have changed. It may not even be owned by the same guy now....

Not been for a few years but was always really nice food but at the higher end of the price scale for Stafford. Not talking arm and leg territory though. Look forward to hearing what its like nowadays!
