My husband & i must have ordered the last of the Sunday beef which was meagrely divided between us. As regulars we noticed an extreme difference to the usual. In fairness,on complaining, we were provided with sumptipus pieces of lamb but new customers would have just accepted the poor offering as the norm: unfair to them & giving them poor value for money along with the wrong impression of the establishment. Sunday roasts are advertised until 9 o'clock but we had the last beef dinners at 4.30 & by the time we left around 6, only pork belly remained: we observed potential customers walk out in disappointment.

This cafe is a must if you are ever visiting the Jewelry Quarter. The food is of a good quality, the staff are really pleasant and the price does not leave a hole in your pocket. The cafe caters for all day time requirements from a cooked breakfast, hot meals for lunch or just a sandwich which are huge by the way! With thick chunky bread and plenty of filling, why would you go to a supermarket to buy something made days ago which is probably going soggy and delivered in copious amounts of plastic. Hylton Cafe sandwiches are freshly made to order and can't be beaten. Don't miss out!

Indoor Tandoori Barbeque
Reviewed By aliceroberts16
Me and my partner visited here last night. On ordering our meal, I stayed no onions. The barmaid made no comment about this request and it was printed on my receipt with âno onionsâ.When our mains came, my chicken curry had lots of onions in. I spoke to the barman who stated all the sauces come with onions, but took the meal back to the kitchen to confirm this. My meal was then brought back out and I finished it. The chicken was a bit hit and miss and I was having to cut away some parts of the chicken as it wasnât very nice. I didnât want to make a fuss as my partner said his meal was very nice.When I went to bed, I was up all night and into the early hours of this morning suffering from diarrhoea and vomiting. The stomach cramps I had was absolutely awful. The only thing that could have caused this was the chicken curry, which my partner had none of and makes sense why he hasnât been ill!! I have contacted The Vine directly through their online âcontact usâ section and I am still yet to receive a reply. I want a full investigation into this as I am absolutely appalled to have had this experience. Thanks for leaving a review on TA. We have replied to your email regarding this matter also. We were concerned to hear this and hope you are feeling better. We serve over a thousand meals every week and food hygiene is very important to us. I believe it was made aware to you that the base of the curry sauce main ingredient is actually made with onions blended down into the curry sauce. Iâm glad to hear your partner enjoyed his meal. We are looking into this at the moment and are waiting to hear back from you.

I did not know what to expect when I booked Folium for our anniversary meal as I had not heard of the restaurant before. From the moment we walked in we were met by the very friendly staff and made to feel welcome. The food was absolutely amazing and each course was completely outstanding and the flavours and textures were out of this world. If you have the chance you must try this fantastic experience.

Another excellently cooked and presented meal. Saturday, so tasting menu only (we had the 8 course). There were some outstanding dishes; I particularly likes the chicken liver parfait and the Roscoff onion. Other dishes were great too, though I thought that the scallop wasnât really as good as the others.Nice wines and decent service (though this was not quite consistent, for e.g. 2 of our party received side-plates for starters, the rest of us did not).Overall a splendid evening with some very good food.

We had Avocado, Salsa, Smoked Salmon and Poached Eggs from the breakfast menu (available all day) - absolutely delicious!The cafe says that it aims to make customers feel they are in a private house, rather than a cafe, and they certainly succeed - very friendly indeed.Will definitely be returning.... there is 2 hours free parking outside the door, which is always a bonus.
