Regular customers of this bar/restaurant since it opened...itâs always been a no brainier go-to for a good meal with friends, as a couple, or cocktails with the girls. Something has definitely changed here though... the menu is now limited and ridiculously expensive, the service is slow and the young waiting staff had particularly vague knowledge regarding the menu. Food very much below average.. bland and uninspiring. Why take pizza off the menu? Yet leave a fully functional pizza oven taking up a quarter of the downstairs space? The pizzas were great.. and after all it is an Italian inspired restaurant...??It feels as if the owners have taken their eyes off the ball... the decor is looking tired, particularly the downstairs leading to the toilets and the toilets themselves... locks not working etc. Really, really disappointing overall.Cocktails still good and bar area buzzy and vibrant. Just donât eat here. Oh, and they no longer serve Guinness either...Dear GDSNJHWe're so sorry you had a disappointing experience at Amalfi White. To explain a few of the points you have raised:MenuWe cater for all dietary requirements, on our current a la carte menu we offer 10 starters and 11 main dishes - this is a huge choice for a quality establishment such as Amalfi White. We have NO microwaves, no pre made sauces, all our dishes are cooked fresh to order. Our ingredients are of the highest quality. The menu has a great range of price options from a burger for £11.50 all the way to Beef Wellington made by our own Chefs for £30. We also have a under £10 lunch menu which is of excellent value. We have separate menus for gluten-free, lactose and vegan customers. We run Tapas Thursday nights to mix things up a bit and do an excellent Sunday roast set menu. In terms of range of menu it's pretty awesome for a five day a week operation in a village.PizzaOur lovely pizza oven is still very much in use! It's used 2 to 3 times a week when we cater for events in our Ballroom. It is a very important asset the business but just does not work for us restaurant side which is why we have removed it from our daily menu. Our chefs are now all together in the kitchen working off the one particular menu of the day meaning that we can utilise our team better and create more excellent quality core menu dishes for our customers.Our BuildingAfter a busy summer the building has definitely had a great use, and we have had the maintenance team in full swing so all of your items that you mention in your review above are now fixed. The paint has dried and it looks amazing. GuinnessWe're sorry you are disappointed we don't have Guinness on draught any more - its just not popular enough with our customers to go through the volume and we were throwing away kegs of it however we do have surger cans if you wish to enjoy one with us.StaffingAlways this time of year we have the old guard leave us to go to University and we have an influx of new staff. It takes a few days for everyone to settle in and you must have got us on an off day. I'm so sorry however the recent training has gone really well and everyone is working together.We hope this has answered your points above, and thank you for taking the time to review.Kindest regards,AW

A small friendly resturant that specialises in Italian and British food.

Evening meal with friends at the Clock Bistro on a Saturday night was simply excellent as it always is, staff are charming and helpful, owner is chatty, but the food is the real deal its marvellous, plenty of choices on the menu and the specials are tempting as well, always busy, booking a must. Plus they have Doom bar which is great.

Reviewed By Clare M
How refreshing to be greeted and served by real Italians in an Italian restaurant. Very good value and great flexibility of mixing pasta and sauce (i.e. you can pick and mix!). Food arrived promptly and was delicious. We all enjoyed our lunches and the lively and friendly service. Very contemporary and bright deco so possibly not best for a very quiet/ intimate dinner for two, but if you want a great Italian then look no further.
