Hermitage Rd Bar and Restaurant

About

Bar, restaurant & coffee bar offering a premium but casual value for money dining and drinking experience. Open 7 days a week with all day dining options.

Story

Breaks down the barriers of traditional dining by offering the modern equivalent.
Contemporary design with reclaimed vintage stripped back décor lends a fun, unpretentious atmospheric feel. It is a great place for meeting with friends and family to socialise and eat the most sumptuous fresh food cooked to perfection in the open kitchen in theatrical style.
Snack or feast but there’ll also be lots of sharing platters and breakfast in the bar at weekends after a big night out.
The 8 metre long zinc offers a wide range of real ales and lagers and an eclectic selection of well-chosen wines by the bottle or the glass and a quality spirit range for those traditional cocktails. The library ladder used to fetch your bottle of wine from the stack behind the bar will intrigue you,
Completely renovated and modernised but many of the rustic original features have been maintained -8 meter high vaulted ceiling, arched windows and a stage where many a 60s mega star performed (now a dining area).
Hermitage Rd. - a unique concept with a warm welcome.
Sunday acoustic sessions in the bar 8-10pm.

I’d heard great things about this place from a local, and it didn’t disappoint! The food was really tasty, and the drinks were spot on—plus, the atmosphere was so welcoming. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the service was top-notch. The only hiccup was finding it on Google Maps, as I ended up a bit too far away! Overall, I had a fantastic experience and can’t wait to come back.
Had our Company Christmas meal last night and it was a relief to be in such a great venue with our own room, great food, excellent service and an extensive list of drinks includng Japanese whiskies.nnWill definitely bring my missus here.
Visited Dec2023, 2024 & 2025 for office Xmas bash using the Xmas menu.nnRestaurants do a roaring trade at Xmas and part of the deal for diners is that the kitchen needs to bang out huge quantities of food at speed, for which the comprise is generally quality and/or care. This restaurant delivers the deal; over the years, the menu planning has bended a little towards standardisation presumably for speed, with fewer staff. Similarly, the bar needed more staff on duty for the peak hours. It would be nice to try this venue outside of the crazy Christmas period to get a more fair impression of it.nnThat said, the Xmas offering was generally good, with the best offering being the traditional choices of prawn cocktail, turkey et al and Chrimbo pud. In all cases, the presentation and preparation was fair, albeit a bit rushed see paragraph above.nnThe bar - and, in particular, its cocktail menu - is a key attraction. There are a lot of cocktails to consume, more than one liver can handle in one night, with a full range of flavours from bitters to sweeties.nnThe venue itself is quite magnificent. Private dining is available; opting to sit in the cavernous main dining area is a superior experience for the atmosphere. The acoustics of the area reverberate, so hearing can be a little challenging. Ceiling baffles would help, without impeding the vibe.nnThe one key disappointment over two of the three years visits has been the cheeseboard. A cheeseboard is supposed to have a variety of cheeses. But in 2024 and 2025, the cheeseboard was three portions of one type of cheese only. And in 2025, it was cheddar. No kitchen likes preparing a cheeseboard at the end of the shift at any time of the year, but to provide only one cheese on a slate looked like too many corners had been cut from the planning. For the prices charged, more time and care needed to be exercised in both planning and execution of the service delivery, even in the crazy Christmas period.
I couldn't fault this place in all honesty. We had an incredible meal that was fresh and tasty. The servers were very helpful. We were moved on request to another table due to the sun being in our eyes. It also has a lovely atmosphere in an old ballroom. Food tolerance was dealt with accordingly. We will be visiting again.
The food was very tasty, and you can really feel the chef’s experience in the dishes. Just a small suggestion: the mayonnaise with the truffle fries is completely unnecessary, and there’s a bit too much mayonnaise in other dishes as well. Other than that, everything was great.
