The Ivy Royal Tunbridge Wells

Lovely atmosphere. Friendly staff. One of the best cocktails and tasty starters vs Cold main meals love the Ivy… been their customer for many year and left number of positive feedbacks before… However, no one is perfect… Celebrated anniversary with my boyfriend a few days ago and for him it was a 1st ever visit to the Ivy… So 1st impression was a big mix for him On the day, table was ready on time ✅and in nice private corner ✅as was requested on the booking🤗 Waitress was new to the place but was really friendly and tried to advise on the meals in really nice and friendly way…✅ Starter, truffle rise balls and atlantic scallops (two of my favourite by the way) were amazing and presented really well✅ I love the Ivy cocktails, best advice… DO NOT order from the cocktail list but go and talk yourself to the barmen and i am guaranty they will do a perfect match for you✅🍸 this time i was actually exploring non alcoholic range and still was stormed off by them✅ The order was a bit slow, but ok.. What do you expect for busy Friday night… Food arrived and looked amazing✅ but it was a big disappointment that both our mains were almost cold… so we were offered to wait for another 40mins for new ordered to be cooked or warm it up… at it was already 21.30with no much choice we decided to go on warm up option… what absolutely distorted fish meal and made it uneatable ☢️❌ We were offered on house deserts….they looked amazing and well presented… also delicious on taste✅😋 Bill… arrived with no £20 discount what was advertised on booking app & current promotion via emails… so watch out for it❌⛔️…. Also despite mains being cold and uneatable, they were included in original bill…❌⛔️ However, talking to the manager and explaining about the mains, they were taken off of the bill and further discount was offered✅ So no one can be perfect all the time ✅⛔️ but the good way of apologies✅ always makes it easier to move one and encouraging to come back Despite cold main meal this time, my hear still with the Ivy and i definitely will return there😋 but I am sure it will take me a while to convince my boyfriend it was a one off situation on cold mains🫣🙏

First time ever to an Ivy restaurant and it was fantastic. Greeted warmly at the door and taken straight to our table. Our waiter was lovely, he was charismatic and friendly. The restaurant was fully booked and the atmosphere was great. Now the food- one of the best meals I have ever had. Scallops and soup to start and they were happy to accommodate my fussy eating with the starter. Mains were sea bass and flat iron chicken and we couldn’t fault it. Great value for money considering the high quality food and service provided. Thank you

We went for a date night at The Ivy TW and we enjoyed it very much. The food was delicious and wonderfully served. The service was very good and the atmosphere was lovely. It is a perfect place for a date night or any special occasion. Also, the toilets are clean and smell lush, which is a bonus. Well deserved 5 🌟 all round Ivy, keep it up!
