Restaurants in Christchurch

Visited for the first time today, although myself and hubby have visited a number of ivys in the past and the new Bournemouth brasserie lived up to the high expectations of the Ivy. We were greeted with very friendly, welcoming and accommodating staff that honestly could not do enough for us. The decor is absolutely stunning and the service from start to finish was impeccable, we felt like royalty!! Most importantly the food was stunning. It was served to us in a very timely manner, well presented, hot and it was extremely delicious. We have already booked for Valentine’s weekend as we were totally blown away by the whole dining experience. Thank you and merry Christmas to all the wonderful hardworking staff at the Ivy that really did go above and beyond to make our experience a fantastic one.

Last minute decision to go out for dinner and decided to give The Ship in Distress a try and didn't regret it. Superb service, friendly and welcoming. Food was delicious and well presented. Overall very good and will be back. Many thanks.

We had a lovely meal, a lovely lady who was our waitress for the evening, I her name was Rosie, was wonderful, so bubbly and helpful. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Food selections were excellent, we thoroughly enjoyed the meal
