We had a fantastic lunch at the castle restaurant today. We went to check out the menu about an hour before it opened and the waitress couldn't have been more helpful, even though she hadn't finalised the menu she let us view it on the laptop. We wandered back at 12 and were greeted in the same friendly manner. The... More

When this restaurant first opened some years ago, my husband and I were impressed and enjoyed the food immensely. What a shame that we cannot say the same now! We tried to book a table on tuesday and found an answerphone. We decided to take a chance and turn up at the restaurant only to find it closed. When we... More

Seems like a place where locals meet and eat, so it seems worth sharing with other people who will visit Bude this summer. We went here recently for lunch and chose something off the set menu which was extremely good value at £12.50 (2 courses) or £15 for 3. Food was excellent. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

The Castle Restaurant provide excellent food prepared by a chef who understands flavor, you get superb food served by pleasant people... More

We were given a gift voucher to visit this local restaurant, and although we have no complaints about the food - excellent - or the views - stunning, we must comment upon the slow service. We waited for 35 minutes for a starter when there was only one other cover in the room. This suggests that the kitchen is too... More

Nice location, interesting building, lots going for it, but absolutely dreadful. Felt a bit sorry for the sole waitress covering the restaurant, and the bar, not that there are many tables. We arrived, were seated, then waited. And waited. And waited some more. Eventually, waitress came to take orders. Then we waited. And waited. And waited some more. When our... More
