Amazing food, and incredible service packaged in a truly lovely venue. My wife and I shared the Chateaubriand beef fillet platter and let me tell you: it is steak to die for. I would really love to know how they get their potato dauphinoise sooooo consistently layered so as to get that creamy, nutmeg-y(?) goodness in every bite!

My wife and I went to Restaurant 1840 , at Stirchley , for the first time on the night of Tuesday 12 September 2023 to have a birthday celebration meal. It is in an old , rennovated Chapel building , built in 1840 , hence the name. We were very impressed by the quality of the food and the caring service from Alison , Molly and Grace . We can highly recommend the Restaurant 1840 and although they are regularly booked out later in the week they are now opening on Tuesday and Wednesdays with spaces still available . The Restaurant 1840 has a well laid out small tarmacadam , flat, car park to the left of the building on a slight slope. It has a glass entrance porch with a large main dining area and kitchen on the ground floor with a smaller balcony area above the kitchen . We had a table upstairs and were amazed by the number of times that the staff climbed the stairs to come and service our needs , always smiling. The toilets are at the far side of the kitchen - through a very low stone arch ( duck ! ) with a unisex and disabled toilet available. My wife had a lovely fillet steak whilst I had a Pork Belly with cherry sauce ( containing nearly an orchard load of cherries) . Our sweets were another fantastic experience with my Rhubarb Panna Cota and my wife had a Chocolate ball , on a strawberry, in glass with hot caramel sauce poured over it . Do be aware that the menu is much more extensive than the one on the website and has some wonderful taste experiences. We do intend to revisit this superb restaurant now we have discovered it !

From the moment we stepped in, we were made to feel very welcome and instantly relaxed.A restaurant with a lovely atmosphere and feeling. All complimented with excellent service and outstanding food.Every course we ate was perfect . Well done to all the staff.The chef deserves a special mention for outstanding plates of food. Many thanks for making our evening special.

It was our second time here this evening, the staff are lovely, nothing is to much bother, so polite and kind. Andrea and young waiter Josh are fantastic. The first time we come, my partner due to injury had no use to one hand, the chef was so kind to cut his meal up but yet still beautifuly presented. The food is here is outstanding, if you want a treat to fine dining, this is your place. A beautiful unique building with a good chilled atmosphere. A great touch with a black and white film playing in the background.Can not rate you enough, thank you!

Went for anniversary meal, all staff friendly and obliging. Meal choices good. We had the pork belly and chicken parfait starters. Delicious and not too filling so we could enjoy our mains and finish them with out feeling too full. Mains we went off the specials menu. Was beef slow cooked and was delicious, large portion of beef. Didn't have room for dessert. Loved the building and what they have done to it. Looking forward to going back.
