Whatever they are paying the lady behind the bar is not enough. She really knows her stuff and just listening to her made me want to buy the whole menu. Flawless skills!
Long term fan, first time commentator. You absolutely nailed this - so humble and appreciative. Loving the higher end stuff mixed in with the fish & chips (which is my go to!) Appreciate the work!
Truly enjoyed this episode. Guys who obviously love food which is a joy and scrumptious food. Have to say the staff was outstanding as well. Unfortunately I live in the US and will never taste the H&F but lived through you guys. Thanks mates!
The other guests and staff were trying not laugh in disgust, until they realised they'd all thought exactly the same thing, and secretly thought that the entire dish might have actually benefitted from some extra sprinkled quavers and pork scratchings on top, and maybe some gold leaf and caviar and winning lottery tickets and rolls-royce car keys etc.
Thanks for this. Always good when somebody takes time to explain the menu to you and how the food is put together. Tom gets a lot of stick for his prices but this is not your ordinary pub food and you are paying for top quality ingredients, skilful chefs and support staff. This is all about the experience and yes not everyone will be afford to eat there but they can experience it vicariously through your reels.
Amazing food review, one of your very best videos and loved your reactions to the food and drink. I’m looking forward to eating there in a couple of weeks.
She’s a diamond! You can’t go wrong with someone who looks that good and has such knowledge of the food they’re offering. They’re not paying her enough however much it is!
I've only recently come across your channel (Fallow review) - nice to see honest and sincere responses - thanks for the insights (I live in Australia so I appreciate this style of review)
Just found this and your channel. Always thought about booking these type of places and always looked for some proper comments ….. loved your balance of flavour, portion size, front of house ……etc. thanks and subscribing 👍
I truly enjoyed this meal through your reaction. Personally I have never been able to smell or taste anything so its a world of flavors I am not privvy to myself but I can imagine how good this is.
Thankyou Matt for bringing such an experience to myself you work hard so deserve eating some sublime food went there many years ago when Tom was on GBM his dish won the food was amazing fair play definitely would eat there again. Just a matter of interest Anthony Worrall Thompson restaurant The Greyhound is only 20 minutes up the road absolutely blinding steakhouse you need to go there and doesnt hit your pocket hard either.
I've eaten at the Hand and Flowers, and a big fan of Toms, often cooking from his books. The man is huge driving force in getting British food on the map. People who knock him, really do not understand what he's about. To be fair, for what you pay at his restaurants for a 2 Michelin star meal is quite cheap. 2 stars isn't just the food, the level of service is incredible. Well done to you guys for ACTUALLY going there, and seeing for yourself, as opposed to people who never have, and moan at the cost!
I'm a big fan of Toms too. He really needs to sort out the crap Harrods are serving in his name in their fish & chips.......... I'm sure he is earning nicely from it, but it is not to his standard at £37 for fish & chips.
Have to say my mouth was watering through this whole video.The food looked fantastic. Too many ignorant people complaining about the price.They have no idea !! The quality and skill that goes into such food is worth every penny. I (my wife and I) love treating ourselves to great food and this place is now top of our list to try. Thanks again for the cracking video 👍
Watching this I would be tempted to try the place however having previously been there 3 times already in the past, once as a mystery shopper for Green King, I can honestly say that none of the food I was ever given looked as good as this and was in fact tasteless and greasy there was even the smell of stale cooking oil in the car park. Friends of mine went about 6 months ago and were thoroughly disappointed in the standards of food and service, on a positive note another friend swears by the place and loves it so it seems to be very hit and miss.
You have to try Canotto Pizza in East Kilbride Scotland it is unreal! Place doesn’t open until 5pm but it is worth it! Smash burgers too but only a Sunday!
Food looks great , very comforting. Would have been nice to know how much the food was costing. No menu , no final bill so the viewers are non the wiser how much a trip here is going to cost them.
Guys please stick to Chippys & back street kebab houses. It's clear you live food but not a single clue what your talking about and seeing those manners in a x2 Michelin star' restaurant is a hard watch.
Haven't tasted it this is amazing LoL. Definitely paid by these restraunts. Why can't you just be an honest food reviewer. Not saying it's not good but the amount of times this guy just says wow 10/10 while wearing a sponsor. Who are these guests?
Which part of this seems like a paid review? Did anything here look anything but faultless? Forged Irish stout is a sponsor, what does that have to do with this place? This is rich the owner of wingfest, did you not listen? We ate the food and paid the money just like everybody else
@@FoodReviewClubUK ignore these tossers mate. constructive criticism is fine but I love it when people confidently do it when they have no idea what they're talking about.
A.A. Gill was the best food critic until his untimely demise . Around 25 years ago I used to buy the Sunday Times just to read his restaurant reviews. They would always be funny acerbic essays . With a twist .
Yes it can. For a special treat, big birthday, any michelin star place is worth it. Expensive, yes, but memories that will last a life time. Still cheaper than a 0-0 draw at a premiership game.
This would have been superb if you could actually keep the food in focus and didn't have glare from the sun ruining it and the camera man didn't have parkinsons
You knew that when she came out with the mains before the finished the starter. Now if you're paying good money in any restaurant you shouldn't be rushed.
The front of house staff your waitress or waiter are like the sales team for your food!! If they are useless at describing what's on your menu your business will fail@! Let this be a lesson to all restaurant or bar owners.😮😮😮❤❤
Whatever they are paying the lady behind the bar is not enough. She really knows her stuff and just listening to her made me want to buy the whole menu. Flawless skills!
Think that’s Toms wife
It’s not@@paulblackman9770
It isnt his wife @@paulblackman9770
That isnt his wife
no chance@@paulblackman9770
Exceptional video. Your best yet and we need more of these longer, quality experiences !
Means a lot, thank you! Hopefully more of these on the horizon ❤️
She could probably talk most people into trying the whole menu.
She could talk me into anything
it's not that hard i would let her step on my face in a heartbeat
😊
I'd give her a portion
@@sparkeydmh too far
You can tell that this isn't really your guys comfort zone, but I do appreciate you both stepping out of it to film some cool reviews. Solid work!
I love how knowledgeable the staff are !!!!!
This video has made a booking for me at The Hand And Flowers 💐 .Can't wait to try this.
Let us know how you get on! You won’t be disappointed
Long term fan, first time commentator. You absolutely nailed this - so humble and appreciative. Loving the higher end stuff mixed in with the fish & chips (which is my go to!) Appreciate the work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Truly enjoyed this episode. Guys who obviously love food which is a joy and scrumptious food. Have to say the staff was outstanding as well. Unfortunately I live in the US and will never taste the H&F but lived through you guys. Thanks mates!
The look you gave the camera man at 21:30 when he said ''it looks like a Quaver on top'' OUTRAGEOUS COMMENT HAHA
The other guests and staff were trying not laugh in disgust, until they realised they'd all thought exactly the same thing, and secretly thought that the entire dish might have actually benefitted from some extra sprinkled quavers and pork scratchings on top, and maybe some gold leaf and caviar and winning lottery tickets and rolls-royce car keys etc.
the food the sounds the silly foodie faces and stepping on twigs in the woods this is one of my favourite pieces of your content 👌
Thanks for this. Always good when somebody takes time to explain the menu to you and how the food is put together.

Really appreciate that thank you❤️. This place is up there with the best of the best. Well worth the asking price for a treat in our opinion
I actually felt like i was sat there with you ! I'm going cant wait great video loved every minute
Amazing food review, one of your very best videos and loved your reactions to the food and drink. I’m looking forward to eating there in a couple of weeks.
You’re gonna love it!
Me to . Can't wait to try that menu.
Great to see staff who are so knowlegable and caring. 10/10
Couldn’t have been better service!
Got to love how the Slap Sauce appeared out of absolutely nowhere.....🤣🤣🤣
That is probably the best food video I’ve ever seen wow …
That means a lot mate thank you!
Another amazing video matt, and wow what food 😍
She's magnificent at her job. Not too shabby to look at either ;-)
She’s a diamond! You can’t go wrong with someone who looks that good and has such knowledge of the food they’re offering. They’re not paying her enough however much it is!
Just ..................................WOW 👍👍👍👍

Wow! I have always wanted to visit this place & I just love the unpretentiousnes - what an amazing meal!
Gonna have to try even if it’s just one time

You know its good when grown men turn into kids over food 👍👍 think this is definitely one of your best reviews guys 👍👍 keep up the great work 🍺🍺🍺
I need to go there!
This place just looks unbelievable. Food looks incredible😧 love the channel man 👏🏻👏🏻
Matt, tell your mate he should grab the Hand & Flowers Cookbook if he hasn't already. Absolutely stunning!
I believe he already has it and loves it!
You mentioned food festivals, come try Bolton on august bank holiday weekend. Cheers Phil.
Great guys! Subscribing immediately! 👍
Epic review Matt!
New to the party ❤❤❤ great channel ❤❤❤
I’ve been there still the most memorable meal I’ve ever eaten; great review
Thankyou Matt for bringing such an experience to myself you work hard so deserve eating some sublime food went there many years ago when Tom was on GBM his dish won the food was amazing fair play definitely would eat there again.

My pleasure!
Try Sindhu in Marlow, Atul Kochhar's restaurant in the Compleat Angler hotel. If you want mind blowing gourmet indian food its incredible.
Dribbling at the Staff ! She is Beautiful!
Wrongen!!

Me and mrs sat in those seats few years back on new years eve can honestly say best food i have ever tasted and best staff ever
❤️❤️❤️
Ive had some awsome bits off Ali Express Dave definitely worth a look on there

Yeah the fish and chips at Harrods is shocking.
The background music would do my head in
Another fantastic review, food looks sensational😋👌
Thank you 😋
Amazing matt but get to that coal fired chippy in Lincolnshire only open Friday and Saturday ❤
Excellent, subbed.
Good man for taking your hat off to go in
It is literally like food heaven , top notch best of the best , i cant wait until frc have over 1 million subs .
One day ❤️ For now we keep working
Love the long videos. Lets LIKE🎉
Amazing Amazing Amazing
I think I had a moment about 6 times watching this and at one point I nearly cried. This is definitely on my hit list for 2024.
Need deep pockets to go there for dinner
Not really. Just work harder fella. Get off ya ass lol
You go every day then I take it?
@@adamthedude9655 I would go every day if it was closer 💯

I wonder what you two are on reviewing this...😊
O.T.T. from my favourite brewery, enjoy lads, loving your food reviews, done without the pretentious bollocks!
You know, it’s good when you get the best seats in the house 😂😂😂 you know what I mean 👍
I'm not sure if I heard that right. Was it £175 per person. 🤔 😮
you should try royal oak in Swallowcliffe
You have to try Canotto Pizza in East Kilbride Scotland it is unreal! Place doesn’t open until 5pm but it is worth it! Smash burgers too but only a Sunday!
Would love to see the guys there :)
Maybe try some more Michelin star restaurants. I know it's not the style as much to this page but the reactions are great
Maybe a couple a month
"It just looks so refined" say the two fat builders in tracksuits 🤣🤣🤣
Great surname babe
I met Tom kerridge
Plantation Rum... They definitely know their stuff.
Employee of the month award goes to.......
Food looks great , very comforting. Would have been nice to know how much the food was costing. No menu , no final bill so the viewers are non the wiser how much a trip here is going to cost them.
We did mention in the video I believe. It was £175 a head for the food. Cocktails were around £20. More than worth it for a treat in our opinion! ❤️
The sharing of forks is doing me in but the food looks incredible
Rich literally sounds like Mark from Peep Show!!! 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Nah definitely Richard ayoade 😅
I honestly thought you were doing a review with a reincarnated Sean Lock. Amazing food👍
😂😂
175 pp i could do 2 week shop for that
Looks great food. Lol and Matt you look like you’re on a massive comedown after a fat session. Get on lad
03:19 forget the Michelin star food... that young lady is the tastiest dish on the menu... WOWZA ❤
I've never dribbled so much are lass thought I was having a moment
Steve Sidwell on crack is back
And u r first. So lucky and so fast too.
hahahahaha mate. absolute 10/10 shout that got me good
😂😂😂❤️
Guys please stick to Chippys & back street kebab houses.
It's clear you live food but not a single clue what your talking about and seeing those manners in a x2 Michelin star' restaurant is a hard watch.
For 175 that barmaid would have to do something special for me.
Haven't tasted it this is amazing LoL. Definitely paid by these restraunts. Why can't you just be an honest food reviewer. Not saying it's not good but the amount of times this guy just says wow 10/10 while wearing a sponsor. Who are these guests?

@@FoodReviewClubUK ignore these tossers mate. constructive criticism is fine but I love it when people confidently do it when they have no idea what they're talking about.
Well said sir@@mftmss7086
How much for everything?????????????
£175 a head for the food and around £20 for a cocktail. I’m sure you’ll agree it’s worth that all day long for a treat
High price point but did look mega
Best!! Food reviewer by a country mile
Thank you so much
A.A. Gill was the best food critic until his untimely demise . Around 25 years ago I used to buy the Sunday Times just to read his restaurant reviews. They would always be funny acerbic essays . With a twist .
£175 . No food can taste that good .
Yes it can. For a special treat, big birthday, any michelin star place is worth it. Expensive, yes, but memories that will last a life time. Still cheaper than a 0-0 draw at a premiership game.
Sounds and looks great but £175 pp is too much IMO. Could knock £50 off that. Keep in mind it's a Tuesday
This would have been superb if you could actually keep the food in focus and didn't have glare from the sun ruining it and the camera man didn't have parkinsons
🥱
Hate holey bread. Whatever happened to a pint, packet of crisps, some nuts and a pie from the bar's mini oven with HP or worcestershire sauce?.
14:32 the forged Irish stout van outside the window….paid review food looks great tho
You knew that when she came out with the mains before the finished the starter. Now if you're paying good money in any restaurant you shouldn't be rushed.
Do you think I walked from Cambridge 😂 I paid for this food… IN FULL HAPPILY
I asked for it all to come out so we could film. We were in a rush 😂 Everyone makes so many assumptions
Holy shit she is a fkin baddie.
this bloke has no business being in a nice place he should be outside a kebab shop after 12 pints
Proper fan boy 😂
Rich could be Sean locks twin brother
Wow that k Ockham. Hi Ken , burger, kebab joints foe six . I suppose it just proves you get what you pay for .
100%
staff know everything all you want at that level
Love Tom Kerridge and his attitude to food bud visiting his London bar and grill was poor to say the least. Food sent back twice and service slack.
Wow, thanks for sharing
I would of drank 2 pints of milk looking at them jugs
The front of house staff your waitress or waiter are like the sales team for your food!! If they are useless at describing what's on your menu your business will fail@! Let this be a lesson to all restaurant or bar owners.😮😮😮❤❤
I totally agree!
Balls to that
Looks banging not sure about fork sharing though 🤢
