Our waiter was outstanding, we missed his name, a gentleman with a bead, he was attentive but not intrusive. The 2 person tables were well spaced so you could quietly chat, the kings choice meals was brilliant, I usually have trouble finding food as vegan and gluten free, but this was expertly catered for.

A Fantastic Dining Experience at Casta Publica – Valentine’s Day Perfection! I had the pleasure of dining at Casta Publica for their special six-course tasting menu on Valentine’s Day, and I can confidently say it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism, setting the tone for a perfect evening. The ambiance was elegant yet inviting, creating a romantic atmosphere that was ideal for the occasion. The attention to detail in both the décor and service was noticeable, making us feel truly valued as guests. One of the standout aspects of the evening was their exceptional commitment to catering to dietary requirements. My partner has gluten-free and dairy-free dietary needs, and it can often be challenging to find restaurants that accommodate with care and creativity. However, at Casta Publica, they went above and beyond to ensure she had an equally enjoyable experience. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, with substitutions that didn’t compromise on flavor or presentation. It was clear that the chefs put in the effort to craft a menu that was both inclusive and delicious. As for the food itself – simply amazing. Each course of the tasting menu was a work of art, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The balance of textures and ingredients showcased the skill of the culinary team, making every bite a delight. From the starters to the final dessert, we were consistently impressed by the creativity and execution of each dish. The cocktails and mocktails were equally outstanding! The mixologists clearly know their craft, as every drink was expertly balanced, refreshing, and beautifully presented. Whether you enjoy a classic cocktail or a well-crafted non-alcoholic option, there’s something for everyone. Each sip complemented the meal perfectly, adding to the overall experience. The service was another highlight of the evening. The staff were knowledgeable about the menu, offering insightful descriptions of each course and pairing suggestions. They were attentive without being intrusive, ensuring we had everything we needed while allowing us to fully enjoy our meal and conversation. Overall, Casta Publica exceeded our expectations in every way. Whether you’re looking for a romantic evening, a special celebration, or just an exceptional meal, this place is a must-visit. We left feeling satisfied, impressed, and already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend!

Had a voucher to use so came for Sunday brunch. Will definitely be back, it was early so fairly quiet but is a lovely spot. Service was awesome and the food was delicious. Good selection for vegetarian and gluten free tummies too.
