Was lucky enough to be treated to a meal here last night for our first anniversary. Oh wow! The location & setting firstly was beautiful, the restaurant had a wonderful intimate feel although a great buzz of diners enjoying themselves, the food was out of this world & to top it off Raf the owner was a star. What a gentleman ... his attention to detail was amazing, his warmth towards us & his staff made for a memorable night. Would highly recommend this little hidden gem. Superb!
Perfect every time we have visited with friendly staff who give excellent service! We have always felt very welcome, and have shared some great nights for special occasions here. The food is fantastic with a great choice of wine. The setting is lovely with a lovely garden in the summer to have an aperitif. It's great to have this fine dining restaurant so close to us. Would most definitely recommend and will be visiting again very soon!
Second visit after deciding we'd come back for a special occasion, and we were not disappointed. This time it was nice enough to sit outside for a drink before eating, in the attractive garden. The restaurant is a nice environment, and the service was overall very good. Enjoyed all of the food and another very good evening.
What an amazing experience! Food was exceptional, service was outstanding, very attentive staff, atmosphere excellent. Truly worthy of a 5/5 star review!
Can't fault it x wonderful food, perfect for a special occasion, lovely staff and hosts x
I dined for the first time at St Helena's in Elstow on Wednesday after hearing from friends of their experiences. I was not disappointed. The setting was beautiful, staff's attention to detail was superb and the food, well, my son who is 6 foot 7 and has hollow legs rolled out of there, full and very happy. The food was amazing. Well presented and absolutely delicious. I was so full, I couldn't have the coffee. Thank you St Helena for making my retirement visit a visit that I'll always treasure x
Fine dinning at its best, amazing food and exceptional service, Raff and his team of staff make you welcome the minute you enter the restaurant, would recommend this restaurant for any occasion and if you get a chance try pre dinner drinks in the wonderful grounds.
Just been for the first time to this lovely restaurant. Sat in the garden for drinks before our meal. Ordered while we were outside before being taken to our table. Food was excellent. Service was superb. Thank you to the chefs and staff for making our visit memorable. We will visit again soon.
One of my favourite restaurants in Bedford! Would visit whenever I am in town with family. The food and service have always been top-notch! The garden on sunny days is a bonus. Special shoutout to Frank and all the staff who have always been incredibly hospitable throughout the years.
First time here. Good selection of food on the menu and very attentive staff. Made for a lovely evening out with friends
A "Proper Dining Experience", good quality food and lovely surroundings with 5 star staff service. The garden is particularly lovely. (Nice loos) It's not cheap cheap, but not ridiculously expensive either. It is a great place for a proper treat.
Fantastic experience. Absolutely fab. All dishes I chose were wonderful. Service impeccable.
