The Ivy Royal Tunbridge Wells

Great visit for breakfast. Have a good high class experience from the meet and great to servings. However, to stay top notch kitchen must adjust with the quality of cooking. Every dish we ordered was overcooked and dry. Taste of the ham was a little bit winded and sour. Black pudding was extremely overcooked and bread bun under egg Benedict was old enough to taste like a brick.

Lack of food quality really negatively affects the experience. Food should be as great as service, or the experience is suffering negative.

Nice place but need improvement at the kitchen.

A group of us came for Sunday Summer High Tea and it was absolutely delicious. The chairs and benches are comfortable. The tea was well presented. The tea pots silver and stylish. The Gluten Free, GF and Dairy Free and vegetarian options were as delicious as the standard options, brought on a lovely stand for 2 people each.
The toilets were clean and beautiful.
Service was excellent.

Food is cooked by high quality standard, scrumptious, staff are professional service, but Pernod should be served with cold water please, highly recommended

Came here for my birthday as a group of four people. Atmosphere was nice it was busy but it was that good energy vibes kind of thing. Food was really good I had the onion soup and then duck curry. attention to service was great but it was booked in advance and nothing was mentioned about the birthday no big deal I enjoyed my time there will definitely come back…

Love that there’s an Ivy in TW. We came for dinner on a Monday evening & it was very busy! They’ve got a very extensive menu.. a la carte, 2 or 3 course set menu, & “market specials”.. think it’d be difficult not to find something you like.

Service was good, food was very nice.. would come back again. ☺️

Great place we had afternoon tea and coffee sandwiches & cakes at a bargin price for our 12th wedding anniversary and when they heard the chef made us a lovely chocolate pudding too share with a happy anniversary in chocolate. Great value for money. Can't wait to return for a full meal. Veggies/vegans catered for chef and staff really amazing. 1000/1000.

Just had an amazing dinner at the Ivy again 1000/1000 you have to dine here.

We were celebrating a birthday. Although some of us had already been it was my first time. Fantastic atmosphere, very well decorated ( the ladies cloakroom is absolutely gorgeous ) Food was very well cooked and fresh, I had the steak and it was succulent and soft, Service was attentive and prestine, Highly recommended.

Had lunch, two courses and a couple of cocktails. We were sat at the bar as we hadn’t booked, the bar stools were comfortable and I quite enjoy watching the bar staff mix cocktails. The starters and both mains were delicious. The sweet potato and chick pea curry was so light and full of flavour. The service was impeccable and all staff were professional and smartly dressed. The bar staff are very knowledgeable and know wha drink to recommend to your taste. Would definitely visit here again.
