The Clarence Tavern restaurant reviews




Average rating: 4.4
We had the great pleasure of hosting our wedding reception at the Clarence Tavern in late 2025. In the lead up to the event, the team- shout out to Sam, Giulia and Harry- were really helpful and enthusiastic in helping us to plan the perfect day in the space, selecting the most delicious menu and curated drinks list, and adding special and personal touches.
On the day, the pub was set up exactly as discussed and exceeded our expectations, the staff team did everything they could to accommodate us and our guests making sure that everyone was looked after - they were absolutely brilliant! Our guests told us that the staff couldn’t do enough for them.
Where do I even start on the food... Nearly everyone we spoke to said it was the best wedding food they had EVER had - and we had so many messages to this effect the next morning. Our friends and family are still talking about the food!!! Special shout out to the dauphinois, ox cheek, trout, whipped fave and kalettes, stuffed aubergine, the riseley pie, the apple crumble, the cod croquettes, gambas, polenta. I appreciate I’ve listed the nearly whole menu but it was ALL stand out! The wine also paired really well and the muscat also went down a treat. I could go on for hours but just 10/10!
Later in the evening we had a band and a DJ, which worked brilliantly in the space. The evening cocktails were delicious, and the late-night food was the perfect touch to make sure no one went home hungry!
A huge thank you to the team for giving us the flexibility to have the best day. We could not recommend The Clarence more!!!
