Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Have been here once before but this current (and probably last) visit was not so good. The waitress seemed somewhat acerbic, so not a good start. We had tiger prawns - the smallest things we've ever seen! They were supposed to be garlic prawns, which...slightly alarmed one of our guests as he hates garlic. He needn't have worried as we couldn't detect any garlic in either smell or taste! The carbonara had way too much cheese in it so was somewhat 'gluey'. One of the others had risotto which, again, was kind of 'gluey'. Didn't bother with dessert as we didn't want another disappointment.More

Visited here a few years ago and we liked it. Down here again for the week so decided to try it again. Menu is small and not fussy but does have a good choice for gluten free which we needed for two of the party....New waitress but she did well apart from getting my starter wrong but it wasn’t a problem. Would go againMore

We visit Bobbys at least once a month it’s become a must! The bread sticks to start are absolutely delicious, pizza better than Italy and the ‘special board’ in addition to main menu is crazy delicious. The staff, family run can’t do enough for you...& we are always made so welcome Good value with no automatic service charge, so you can apply your own tip which is much more friendly We thoroughly enjoy every visit. If we can’t make a visit we order a delivery Thank you to Carol, Mark, Emily and team you look after us so we’llMore

This is a great restaurant! We weren't sure how it would be because the photos didn't look that good. Our food was excellent, the service was great and it was good value for money. They really need to update their photos as it doesn't do...them justice at all.More

A quick trip for a birthday celebration on Saturday, we stayed locally and looked at what people had said on TripAdvisor re local restaurants. We wanted an Italian restaurant and Bobby's had an early table. Perfect. Starters were good, my wife had the Calamari (I...thought too much batter) but she was happy. I had a Caprese salad. Also good. But the best part was the main course. She had the chargrilled venison steak, I took the sea bass fillet. Both dishes were fabulous. Tasty, well cooked and equally well presented. We shared a salted caramel and vanilla sundae. A glass of wine each and the total was a reasonable £64. Service was proficient and attentive without being too fussy. A family run business, a warm environment, what more can you ask for? Highly recommended. PaulMore

Last night we had our work Christmas party. There was 16 of us yet the large number did not affect the service and quality of food as it does in some places. Everyone enjoyed themselves and commented on the lovely relaxed atmosphere. The food was...delicious as always and there was plenty to choose from. They are very good at catering for dietary requirements so none of our group felt ‘left out’ as it were. Thank you to the whole team for making it such a lovely evening.More

Not normally a fan of Italian food but pleased to find all pasta dishes are gluten free and there was something to suit all tastes. Open kitchen so you can see the chefs working. Service was excellent too.
