5* Fine dining experience.
The staff were very welcoming and friendly from the moment we arrived.
The food was amazing and everything tasted phenomenal.
I recommend the pork loin Sunday lunch.
Strawberry daiquiris were very good.
10/10 will be returning.
This place deserves all 5 stars for everything! We wanted something special for our Anniversary and they certainly didn't disappoint.
We were made to feel welcome as soon as we walked through the doors. They took our jackets, while we sat in the bar area for a drink. The mojito, was beautifully presented, with a little vanilla bubble, and coconut dry ice!
We chose black pudding and belly pork, and beetroot and goats cheese for starters, these were amazing.
Seafood linguine and chicken for main courses, again perfectly cooked, and very tasty.
Desserts, sticky toffee pudding and the mango cheesecake were delicious.
The restaurant was cosy, clean, and we requested a table under the "tree". The staff were lovely, attentive, pleasant and the little extras were rather special too.
Thank you to all the Banches team for making a night to remember, highly recommended for a special meal out. Hope to see you again soon.
Tried for first time today with my mam for the tasting menu. Food was outstanding. Excellent value and service was amazing the lady who served us always had a smile on her face and looked after us really well with wine top ups. It's beautiful inside and I can highly recommend 👌 we have booked to try Sunday lunch next.
It was a fairly quiet night when I went in, but even so, it had a good vibe. It's quite bright but not overly so. The tree in the middle of the restaurant is quite impressive, although about a foot too low for all but one of the waiters.
The service was very good, just appearing at the right times and calm and relaxed.
All the food was very nicely cooked. The prawns for starters were on point and the in-between bits tasty.
I will definitely be returning.
Food and service is absolutely outstanding. Best Sunday dinner I’ve ever had.
Outstanding....
Food, service, atmosphere. Everything about this place was 5 star. We definitely will call again.
Very good food. It has a Michelin feel to it, with the food decorated very nicely. As far as I am aware, it does not have a Michelin star. Service is very good. It is on the pricey side, but the food was great. As we went as a family, tried different dishes. I feel the best one was the ‘8 oz rib eye steak’. Very meaty and grilled taste. Well cooked. There was a in between dish which are rounded balls, tasted like croquettes, they were nice, but I can’t find the name. I think it was given as a special. Everything else were good but felt it was pricey. Recommended for special occasions. Don’t forget to wear smart
Had the absolute pleasure visiting today. The service was amazing, food was outstanding and the establishment was beautiful. Will definitely be going back. We all had the Sunday lunch menu. Everything was so tasty!
Birthday weekend for the wife. So researched restaurants Dobson and pernal looked like the one to go to . Went for meal and day after went to Branches..me and the wife said Branches just piped Dobson pernal .. 👍🥇👍
I am so glad my husband and I discovered this restaurant while on holiday in Newcastle.
Luckily, it was right next to our hotel. The atmosphere was romantic and the interiors were very elegant.
Every dish was delicious and presented artistically. Even the bread served with butter and salt with crushed peppercorns was so good.
So was their soup of the day. The highlight for me was the salmon and seafood dish. My husband enjoyed his fish and chips too.
We were even given some complimentary fish cakes which were delightful.
For a fine dining restaurant, it was reasonably priced. Their staff were very attentive as well.
We’d love to come back the next time we visit Newcastle.
