Dear Joe Daflos We came to you last night for our Christmas party and I just wanted to do a note to say Thank You for a fantastic evening! The staff were fantastic and made the night run perfectly. The food was out of this world, everyone this morning has commented on how good it was – compliments to the... more

It's a long time since we've been to Joe Daflo's. Last time was just after it had opened in it's well-designed converted church. Then we had baguettes and fries. It was perfectly fine, if unremarkable. Now it's different. We went at 6 pm on Tuesday evening, so they weren't busy. The only menu that was made available to us was... more

It was the night before our daughter's graduation and we wanted to eat somewhere within easy walking distance of our hotel. Joe Daflos seemed to be pretty good judging from others recent comments. We were not disappointed. The restaurant is in a redundant church which has been converted in a most original manner. The echoing acoustics have been deadened to... more

Friends recommended I went to Joe Daflos for my birthday. They had been to the launch with Wave’s Steve Power and said it was a brilliant night. We were also attracted by the three course offer with a bottle of wine for two. I was really glad I took their advice, we had such a good night! The food was... more

Things have really taken a turn for Joe Daflos… was in there mid week for their offer of three course and a bottle of wine between two (£17.95 per person). The service was much better than my previous experience before new manager Bob (who I had a chat with, lovely guy) and the new menu was great, amazing for the... more

Hurrah. This reliable pre-theatre venue is on the way up again. I read previous reviews with alarm but headed there for a pre-Saturday matinee meal with hope. Service is now excellent again with friendly, competant staff doing the business. The menu offers a choice of two courses for £18 and three for £20 (well, five pence under that sum) but... more

Yes it's a beautiful conversion, the atmosphere is good and the bar impressive, it's just a shame the service was shocking and the food average. We went in for a pre-theatre birthday meal. The menu was set so the kitchen and chef should have been ready to cope (this is what they do every night, being opposite a theatre and... more

My partner and I went to Joe Daflo's last week for dinner and it was okay.... The restaurant itself is very nice - large and spacious - it's a converted church. The food was quite good - we both had starters which went down very well - the mains were not as appetising as they read on the menu -... more

I went to eat at Joe Daflos on Friday after reading the reviews on Tripadvisor. I have to say I was very disappointed. The service was just average and the food left a lot to be desired. The portion sizes were small and the quality of the food was very poor. All 3 courses chosen by my husband were dreadful.... more
