The Clock House - Ripley

We have not been to The Clock House for some time after a rather draconian booking policy upset us. The resturant has changed hands and so we gave it another try. We were delighted by the experience and particularly want to commend the Front of House staff or their friendly welcome and 'unstuffy' advice and good humour. Quite rare these days in high quality resturants. The food was delicious and we enjoyed every course of the a la Carte menue we tried. The cheese selection was very creative and well presented food complimented the helpful wine selecions..

A very enjoyable lunch. We are non drinkers on this occasion so cannot comment on the drinks other than our tomato juice was great. The meal itself (tasting menu) was wonderful and comparable to one and 2 star Michelin meals we have had elsewhere. The service was good, efficient and friendly

Our 3rd visit. Still our favourite restaurant for a special occasion. Food, service, attention to detail, all impeccable as usual. No surprise the Michelin star was regained!

We had a really fantastic evening, the ambience, staff and food were all excellent. It was our first visit and we were very impressed with how welcome we were made to feel and particularly how it was treated as a whole evening experience, with plenty of time between courses. We also really enjoyed the unexpected extra courses and anniversary sweet board at the end of the meal. We would like to particularly mention our lovely waitress who was so warm and attentive.

Excellent food. Wine list over priced - no reasonably priced offerings.

Excellent meal, great service, good atmosphere

Went here with my husband and parents to celebrate our 6th and 25th wedding anniversaries. The welcome, service, food and atmosphere were exceptional and the added touches for our celebrations were thoughtful.
The 7 course tasting menu was delicious and had some unexpected added courses such as amuse bouche, pre starter and pre dessert. Each course was fantastic and it was exciting to see each course and the way it was presented.
There is a good wine list with some reasonably priced and tasty.
I would highly recommend this place, and for a special occasion worth every penny.

Really lovely experience. Excellent set lunch, subtle flavours, all beautifully served. Only slight negative being unnecessary high price of pre meal English sparkling drinks.

we had a fabulous lunch with our guests, couldn't fault anything probably the best yet after quite a few visits.

It was our first visit to The Clock House to celebrate a special occasion and it was perfect for it. The food was beautifully presented and delicious. The service was excellent. Overall we have been left with very fond memories.
