EXCELLENT Based on 836 reviews Karen23 June 2025Verified Best Espresso Martini …. Having passed here a few times, we decided to go for cocktails after hearing a really good review from family. We sat in the bar area, but could have gone upstairs to the lounge area. I had the espresso martini which I would say is the best one I have tried - it was not too ‘coffee ish’ , just the right amount & plenty of vodka! My mum had the Bloody Mary which she said was plentiful, delish, quite spicy and went down well! Robert was charming and friendly as were the two bar staff. The food coming out the kitchen looked lovely, so will be trying that too at some point. This is a very cute little bistro & bar, with plenty of seating upstairs & as mentioned has a lounge area for just drinks. Liz P22 May 2025Verified A little gem not to be missed! Situated in St Georges Passage, this little gem is secluded and off the beaten track, you arrive and step into a cosy intimate bar area. We were greeted by the owner who immediately made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble, they provided a high chair in the restaurant for our Grandson. The food was ordered and the waiting time was just right after we had enjoyed a drink at the bar. A great selection of wines, zero beer and zero gin also available. We had the lunchtime 'light bites' menu, which was varied and the portions were ample. Presentation was that of some fine dining restaurants. The deserts were also excellent and presented beautifully - I recommend the blueberry cheesecake which came with a side order of ice cream! The menu pricing is just right in my opinion. I loved everything about the decor and ambiance. Exceptionally clean and well thought out displaying local artwork which is for sale. A truly delightful experience for every occasion. I can't wait to go back one evening for the Steak & Magic night.......... 5 Stars and well deserved! Pollyann10 May 2025Verified Excellent all round Lovely small restaurant with great ambience. Welcoming staff and excellent service. I had salmon and husband had curry - both cooked and presented to perfection. Thank you for a great evening Steven P2 May 2025Verified Steak and magic night was EPIC Unreal place, atmosphere is AMAZING !!!! We booked the first Friday of the month for steak and magic night, best evening EVER!!!!! also the best steak I've ever eaten too!!!! 1000000% recommended!!!!! madambarletta19 April 2025Verified Such a wonderful experience. Amazing service,cozy intimate environment.,Lovely menu. Fantastic local produce. Faultless experience.. Will return soon., pete S18 April 2025Verified Classy dining experience We’ve not been for ages but after last night’s dinner we’ll definitely be back. The dining areas are really classy, welcoming and clean which makes a big difference. The host was very welcoming and friendly. Couldn’t do more the help. The food was sensational as usual. The menu is fairly small which we feel shows the food is fresh and they’d rather do a small number of dishes really well. We think it’s still the best restaurant in Deal and definitely won’t make it so long before we go again. Happylife6 April 2025Verified Monthly Streak and Magic Night What a fantastic night!! We went to the all new steak and magic night such a great idea and especially as it’s monthly! Well done to the chefs and team working hard to give us a great evening with lovely food :-) Tim C30 March 2025Verified Mothers day Went for mothers day excellent service excellent food could not fault it. We had the roest lamb absolutely superb would highly recommend. Mr & Mrs R30 March 2025Verified Simply the best in Deal We had the best evening at V Bar and Bistro. Rob was the perfect host, and our meals were excellent. We started with the seafood cocktail and followed with the steak and kidney puddings. Both delicious and beautifully presented. We cannot recommend V Bar highly enough.
