We went for breakfast for my dads birthday. What a find. Absolutely amazing place. Really enjoyed the breakfast and ambiance of the restaurant. The only small criticism i have is that due to how efficient the servers were they cleared some of the plates away before some of our party had finished. I always feel they should be cleared at the end when everyone has finished. Putting this aside I would highly recommend plates.

Lovely experience today at Plates. Waiters were lovely and very helpful and the food was delicious! Would definitely recommend. Coffee offered with the breakfast for free, which was the cherry on top. Manager was really nice!

Lived in Berkhamsted for a while and regularly drive past this restaurant but until last weekend, hadn't ventured in. Pleasantly surprised on booking brunch that very morning that they actually had table available unlike some others in town.
We were a group of 5 plus a very friendly dog. We all had something different from French Toast to Shaksuka. I had the Full Plates Breakfast with a side order of their Hash Bites with freshly squeezed OJ to drink.
Everything was delicious, the only minor negative which I mentioned at the time was that the poached egg had been overcooked so didn't have any delicious gooey yolk to enjoy.
Staff were very friendly and gave the dog a bowl of water along with a treat. Will 100% be returning soon.

I really enjoyed my breakfast. There were a few new flavours to explore in my full English. This won't suit traditionalists, but I think it worked. The coffee is really good too. Expect to pay much more than your average cafe.

A cute independent cafe with friendly but inattentive staff and nice food

Great food 😋. Lovely little tapas.

This is a little gem, situated on the North end of the High Street. Understated, with delicious food, always a fabulous combination. Great for vegetarians and carnivores alike.
Thank you for such a delicious lunch.

Had another fantastic brunch. Can't rate this place highly enough.
Staff are relaxed but attentive. Food is creative and excellently executed.
The evening menu is even better!

This was only my second visit but had I had one of the best things I’ve ever eaten today. Christmas sandwich with turkey, stuffing, cranberry, cabbage & gravy mayo. Quick service, amazing food and drinks, service with a smile…..I must go more often.
Apparently they’re hunting for a new chef, I just hope it’s not to replace the current one!

On Sunday 3/07 Myself and 4 family members visited Plates for lunch. As usual the food was delicious and appealed to the youngest and and oldest in the group. The staff are welcoming and attended to our requirements quickly and what impressed me was the fact that glasses and a bottle of water were immediately placed on the table and the staff regularly replace the water once it has been drunk. I have found that in restaurants, one usually has to ask for a top-up!! During our time at Plates the staff were attentive, friendly but not intrusive. Once again a thoroughly enjoyable lunch and we will definitely be back!
