Reviews for The Undercroft

Enjoyed a superb lunch here when last visiting the cathedral. Great food, great coffee and 5* service. It makes the food taste even better knowing that any profit they make in the restaurant will help to keep this beautiful cathedral in the fantastic condition it is.

The food always looks good and is well cooked but there is one big problem. They dish the hot food at the far end of the counter and then send it along to the till for payment. If there is a queue then you can wait a while before you collect and pay. By then it is lukewarm and by the time you are half way through it is cold. Best for cold snacks and cake but not for a hot meal

Usually a lovely place to eat. This was my first visit post lockdown. Disappointed that I was supplied with plastc cutlery (could barely spread the butter I had with my scone) and the cheese scone, which are normally lovely, had virtually no cheese. I hope they revert to the previous recipe. The table was also sticky - this may be related to the cleaning agent they use. It was still a pleasant visit, thanks mainly to the surroundings. The staff were pleasant and professional otherwise.
