The food I’ve ordered online is really nice and well presented but I really don’t understand the opening and closing times, a bit all over the place if I’m being honest, some days open at 12, others at 4 the it closes at 8:30 then 10 or 9 pmI ordered once online and they rejected my order for some reason and then closed for some reason that wasn’t even explained, I would order more if it wasn’t because of opening times

The new owners of curiosity are great! The food is amazing and whenever we find time to nip in for something to eat or a drink we do! It’s a nice escape! They have recently started putting their own stamp on the place & we can’t wait to see it when it’s finished ✅! If you’re in the area definitely add Curiosity to your itinerary!

Visited here last week and unfortunately I'm not sure I will be returning.Since new ownership the price of food has gone up massively whilst the quality and portions have reduced drastically.We ordered a bottle of prosecco and was given a cheap screw top supermarket bottle. Really poor, especially given the price.The once atmospheric bar is now reduced to a shell of it's former self. It is bland and lifeless and quite frankly feels cold and uninviting now.I totally understand that new owners will want to put their own stamp on things but blimey, they've ruined the place.

massively overpriced breakfast. pathetic portion sizes. £9 for 3 tiny pancakes and what is basically 1 strawberry and half banana. ridiculous when you go to Mayhap cafe they give you 3 plate sized pancakes and loads of fruit/syrup plus proper cream for only £2 more. Would not reccomend going at all to Curiosity.

After going in here for years I am sorry to say that the place seems to be going downhill under the new owners, it has lost a lot of its appeal, there seems to be a cheaper feel to it, and I feel like corners are being cut. Also there are not enough staff on.

After decades of eating out near Christmas from seasonal menus, they can often be a disappointment. Not so at Curiosity where the food was very nice - and more to the point piping hot (not always the case where a party is being catered for). The starter was good and the fillet steak (and trimmings) spot on. Decent drinks and bar service even though the bar was very busy at times. Recommended.

Been coming to this little gem of a bar for a number of years. Was in recently for drinks with our friends. Noticed a significant difference since the change of ownership and not necessarily in a good way. There was only one person serving at the bas last Saturday night and it was rammed. The only other person we saw working was cleaning up/doing other jobs. People were queuing for so long that we decided to leave after a couple of drinks as we just couldn’t spend our money due to the long waiting times. They no longer serve the extensive cocktails they once did. Even more of a shame as we always loved the Grinch cocktails. They don’t have a great selection of drinks either, giving a cheaper feel. And with the lack of staff, they are losing a lot of custom. The other nearby bars were busier and coped much better as they had adequate staff. Overall, the ambience and magic the place once had under the previous owners is no longer a thing. Such a shame, as it was our favourite bar.
