We have been to Ronnie's many times now and every time the whole experience has been superb.The atmosphere is lovely, the choice of menu is great and there are always several, beautifully tasty, amuse - bouche.But the best of all is the amazing maitre d'; Richard Hervey. He is so knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and personable. He makes every visit perfect.Thank you Richard

We went to Thornbury on a very cold wet day intending to find somewhere to eat. My goodness did we find Ronnie's. An absolutely brilliant restaurant. The food was exceptional and beautifully prepared and presented. Flavours balanced and delicious. The staff were attentive and courteous. An impressive wine list with a wide selection sold by the glass. My greatest regret is that i have lived in Gloucestershire for 30 years and i never realised such a top quality restaurant was nestled away in Thornbury. For a first class eating experience with a lovely ambience look no further. Thank you all at Ronnie's

We visited between Christmas and New Year and had both the Traditional and Vegetarian Festive Tasting Menus. Great service and very impressed with the mix and quality of the dishes. Very interesting wine list and not too hard on the wallet either!

Very good food for the price. Had the £65 tasting menu and was delighted by every course. Been to quite a few starred restaurants and Ronnie's holds up well against quite a few of them! Will definitely be back.

Excellent dining experience. The food is delicate and well prepared. Don't expect large pieces of meat. Enjoy each dish with an accompanied cup of wine.

I took my mum as it was her birthday.We had the express menu 3 courses for £25. What a gastronomic delight. Food that looked exquisite and tasted sublime. Topped off with a floater coffee and the best hot chocolate I have ever tasted. My mum also thought I had spent a fortune, brownie points for me. A win win in my book.

We came here on spec and were absolutely thrilled. Ronnies has so much going for it: the interior is warm and welcoming and beautifully appointed. Our waiter was friendly and knowledgeable. Our starters of Scallops and a Ham Hock were beautifully presented and really well thought out. We both had Loin of Venison for the main course which was served with poached pear and sliced parsnip that was caramelised with a delicious jus. A pudding of Bramley apple crumble with Calvados cream completed the meal. Everything was seasoned beautifully and nothing too salty so we were really happy. We shall certainly return and feel this restaurant deserves more accolades.

I’ve eaten in many restaurants over the years, with the most important element for me being taste, atmosphere and great service, and Ronnie’s not only ticks every box but simply blasts them apart. Invited by friends for a meal, based on their recommendation alone, with no prior research - I approached the unassuming frontage with excitement and trepidation. Sad as it may sound, seeing the highly burnished stainless steel kitchen surfaces from the window filled my heart with joy as I approached the entrance. Greeted with a smile, a nod and swept effortlessly to our table, the anticipation was building. Comfortably seated in a small yet perfectly positioned dining space it wasn’t long before the joy began. Not one, not two but three amuse bouche arrived in equal turn, dancing around my palate, presentation matching taste in equal turn! Let the tasting menu begin, sad to say no photos were taken, such was the excitement. Crab, scallops, cod and lamb were all on show, and were very much the stars of the evening, at such a level as only previously experienced in restaurants with Michelin stars. The wine flight throughout was spot on, providing some insight into some niche producers, but also good to stumble across noble rot, my old friend. I’ve said too much already, and you’ve probably lost interest by now, but this restaurant is something special. The chef obviously has a passion for outstanding food and flavour, the waiting staff have a passion for creating a warm, friendly yet efficient convivial atmosphere, and the wine knowledge was excellent- often missing in many restaurants these days. This place is amazing, shame it’s almost an hour away, but I will be back and will encourage everyone I know to go. Ronnie, I salute you.

We arrived for dinner on my special birthday, after staying at the castle. What a fabulous cosy place this is, we were served by Richard such a lovely friendly guy that took the time to talk to us and made us feel very welcome. The velvet scallops and cod option were sensational and something I will never forget, my partner had the lamb and although from Wales said it was the best he'd ever tasted. Thank you Richard and Ronnie's for making my night one to remember.
