The Chef reccomendWe live this restaurant we like to come for all our special occasions as a date night and we are never let down. Recently I have had to change my diet to dairy free and we let the waiting staff know and I couldn’t Brie how accommodating the staff were. There didn’t seem to be a dairy free desert and the chef designed a dark chocolate blood orange ganache with honeycomb so I didn’t miss out and it was so delicious!!! I was nervous about ordering before I went and thought this might cause difficulties but this couldn’t have been further from the case I was so pleased !
This should have at least one Michelin star!!! We dined here again, this time for valentines evening, the food was simply sublime, it really could not be better, every dish was beautiful Zac and his team are just amazing, if memories are created by experience then this one will last a very long time, best restaurant around
Everything about this restaurant is superb the waiters; the canapés; the wine; the food.... I would highly recommend the canapés with a cheeky cocktail before your meal. The halibut was the best dish I have eaten for a long time all enhanced by the adorable Yan
The food was fantastic and the French waiter was just lovely! Very professional. This is really a great place and I would highly recommend.
The food is amazing. The staff are very attentive and knowledgeable. The restaurant is comfortable and decor is pleasing to the eye. Ive been here 4 times in 2 months its so good!! Best whisky sour I've had in a long time...
We visited this restaurant for lunch and, presumably thanks to the ‘dry January’/veganuary nonsense, had the place to ourselves. Initially we weren’t going to bother with the canapés with our pre-lunch drinks, but they sounded delicious so we went ahead and ordered them and very pleased we did. For the meal itself we went a la carte, which was an extravagance because the very reasonably priced set menu had plenty of items we would both have been happy with. Starters were duck Battenberg and Mersey crab, mains were halibut and beef, puddings were lemon tart and bourbon parfait (see photos). Everything was excellent and portion sizes were good. Service was excellent. The bill, excluding service for the above, a double G&T, Kir Royale, two glasses of wine and two coffees, came to £157. I’m happy to recommend this place - we’ll be back!
This was our favourite restaurant until we discovered the Northgate. But having said that it was our favourite!! Greta menu fantastic service and an exceptional wine list.
Highly recommend, the service that Yann and the rest of the team at 1921 gave us was brilliant, so much care of the details. The food was amazing from start to finish. Could not fault anything, The menu offered wonderful combinations of foods and flavours. We will be returning again.
Service first rate and knowledgable staff. Beautifully made and tasty canapés. Rabbit terrine possibly slightly dry but delicious none the less. Hake for main course was Devine and partners vegetarian option went down well. The portion sizes are just about OK but the tastiness and presentation more than made up for that.
Lovely restaurant in a beautiful old building. Very welcoming, friendly efficient staff. We enjoyed the unusual skilfully made canapés with pre lunch drinks in the lounge. We decided to go for the seven course taster menu and was not disappointed. Course after course of beautifully presented food bursting with flavour. Our favourite was the crab, so fresh with the apple. We will definitely return and our only regret is that we don’t live closer. Highly recommend.
Truly one of the best meals ever. Remarkable flavours. Gorgeous! The restaurant was full with the hum of happy diners. Without doubt, my favourite Bury St Edmunds restaurant. It also tops many I eat at in London and elsewhere. Thank you, Chef!
We arrived to be warmly greeted. I was lucky and had won an Instagram competition for complimentary canapés. I have enjoyed the ginger and gin cocktail previously and chose that again to go with the canapés. Now sadly I should have written my review promptly as I can’t remember exactly what my main course was 🤨 I ordered the monkfish tartare which was beautiful, delicate and well flavoured. My main course was fish, I think it was hake with a lightly curried sauce. The sauce was really great and light enough to compliment the fish. Without fail I recollect that I ordered both a pudding and a cheese course. The cheese course was absolutely amazing Cambridge blue with honeycomb. Now I had never had honeycomb with blue cheese before and I was blown away by it. My pudding was pumpkin cake, pumpkin pana cotta and jelly/candied and the most amazing Liquorice ice cream. Absolutely beautiful. All in all an excellent lunch indeed.
Had a Saturday evening meal with wine. Firstly the staff are friendly and offered great customer service. The food is totally amazing and I can’t recommend it enough. The food is in smaller portions than some places but the flavour and quality over rides this and you will certainly come out of the restaurant feeling full, and well satisfied. Try it and see for yourself...I highly recommend this as a couple and a place to go with friends and family. We certainly will be going back .
We were a little bit unsure as to what to expect here as it never seems that busy and we had heard a bad review, however, we are so glad that we ignored the review! We had the taster menu and it was absolutely fantastic. Everything was full of flavour & each course was explained when brought out. The only one that wasn't so good was the Mint Choc dessert!!! Although it was very expensive (taster menu's always are!!!), it was worth the money. Jamie (think that was his name) was really attentive and spent time talking to us and was very attentive, as were all the staff. Really loved it here & can't wait to go back!
The restaurant is our favorite one in this delightful town. We would advise booking well in time as it is always very busy. We actually booked in July because of the date and the annual Christmas Craft Fayre. The food was excellent as always and the service was very attentive. Well done 1921 David and Rosemary
Totally blown away by the wonderful service and spectacular food. All four of us loved our evening as we were made to feel so welcome and comfortable, well fed and wined. This is not a “gut - buster” restaurant but if fine dining is what you appreciate then you will be very pleased with your booking here. Every course in an event. I think that prices are extraordinarily fair particularly for the 6 till 7 special set menu. (Don’t think you will be missing out - you won’t - lots of choices). I can’t afford the earth to eat out and so I am thrilled to find such a lovely establishment at a price I can easily justify and food that I couldn’t possibly produce at home.
What a great find. Last night we had one of our best meals in ages at this gem of a restaurant. The food was exceptional being both imaginatively prepared and beautifully presented - absolutely top quality. The service too was exceptional, prompt, friendly and light-hearted at the same time. We were made to feel special from the moment we arrived to the time we left. Don’t be mislead if this restaurant is not towards the top of the Trip Advisor ratings in Bury; it may appear below a gastropub or two, or a posh-burger joint but comparisons would be like chalk and cheese, this IS definitely one of the top two restaurants in the city if you enjoy high quality cuisine at a fair price and with good attentive service you won’t be disappointed.
Everything about this meal was perfect. From walking in the door to leaving. The team at 1921 are consummate professionals and incredibly knowledgeable about the food and drinks. I took my partner for his birthday in March opting for the tasting menu and accompanying wine flight and I really cannot fault any of it. We left on a complete cloud and we are still talking about it seven months later. Highly recommend
We had an excellent meal and evening at 1921, the food was well executed, very tasty including the vegetarian options, and beautifully presented. Service was good and I thought portion sizes were just about right for this type of food, but can understand those that thought they were a bit small. we shared a portion of the lovely salt and vinegar potato’s which probably helped. All in all a great experience and one I would definitely repeat when next in Bury.

Oh my God, what an awful experience. Waitress service was awful, could do with some fresh blood in our opinion. It was very stayed and wooden. The current staff seemed a bit "set in their ways" and comfortable. Food served was cold and dry. I had dried food on my fork and when I pointed it out I got an eye roll and a tut. Food took an absolute age to come. We pointed out, after a long wait, that we were due to go to the Theatre Royle and was told "the chef will not want to be told that". Exact words. As a result we were late for the performance even though we'd allowed ourselves 3 hours. I feel that the food was way too fancy for the price and that they are trying too hard to impress. We were ignored throughout and not really wanted. Food was tasteless and cold and dry. I would not recommend this place.
