Restaurant has a great ambiance. Very cozy. Very serene, not too formal and not casual. The vibe is nice. We ordered their fish and chips and cottage pie. And they were great. Very tasty and they have a large servings. We also had cocktails (which I forgot the names). Overall, it was a nice experience. Please do note to book a reservation. It was worth it.

The Podmore is a place where culinary creativity meets exceptional execution. From the delightful appetizers to the show-stopping main course and the innovative drinks, every aspect of our dining experience was top-notch. We started with the Mango and Avocado Ceviche, a burst of tropical sunshine on a plate. The combination of sweet mango, creamy avocado, and bright, zesty seafood was simply divine. It was incredibly fresh and light and a testament to the quality of their ingredients. Next, the Spinach and Mushroom Toast arrived. The bread was perfectly toasted, providing a satisfying crunch, and it was generously piled with a rich, earthy mixture of mushrooms, spinach, bacon and cheese. The flavors were deep and comforting, a perfect middle to the meal. The star of the show, however, was the Lamb Vindaloo Curry. This dish was an explosion of flavor, a beautiful balance of heat and spice. The lamb was incredibly tender, practically melting in your mouth, and the vindaloo sauce and mango chutney were complex and aromatic, with layers of flavor that unfolded with each bite. It was a bold and exciting dish, executed with finesse. Beyond the incredible food, The Podmore's drink menu is unique, creative, and refreshing. They offer a selection of cocktails that are as visually stunning as they are delicious. Each drink felt thoughtfully crafted, using interesting flavor combinations and fresh ingredients. It's the kind of drink menu that makes you want to linger and try them all. Our table favorites were Let’s Go To The Movies, 4 Tha Hotties, and Deja Brew. If you're looking for a restaurant that offers a unique and delicious adventure for your taste buds, look no further than The Podmore. We're already planning our next visit!

I love podmore! It has such a cozy, welcoming atmosphere and the staff are always prompt, thoughtful, and timely. This time around, I ordered the vegetarian kale and truffle lasagna - the new menu is so delicious, and they've still kept the beautiful presentation with all their new menu items. I've heard such good things about brunch too, and I can't wait to come back for that next.

Podmore is thee spot if you’re looking for a place that’s equal parts stunning and delicious. The vibe? Totally aesthetic—like, the interior design alone is a reason to visit. But let’s talk food. The brioche French toast? Insanely fluffy and so flavorful it didn’t even need syrup. I mean, who does that? The smoked salmon and spiced egg were a solid hit, and I love that you can mix and match to kind of create your own meal. Super cool touch. Now, the chicken and waffles? That sauce was something else—totally unique. And don’t even get me started on the cranberry mimosa. I asked for it a bit tart, and the bartenders nailed it. They’re seriously pros. Oh, and the presentation? Always on point. This is one of my go-to spots when I want to show off to friends from the mainland. They always leave obsessed, of course. Overall, Podmore just gets it—amazing vibes, stellar food, and top-notch service. A total win.

I had a memorable dining experience at Podmore! The carbonara was absolutely divine, perfectly creamy with a rich, authentic flavor. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly, making me feel truly welcomed. The ambiance was equally remarkable--elegant yet cozy, perfect for a memorable meal. Highly recommended for anyone seeking fantastic food and top-notch service!

My favorite bar on the island. It’s a bit pricey but it’s my go to for special occasions. The Chung chow is absolutely my favorite cocktail and they now have seasonal flavors so even more reason to come back multiple times throughout the year. They’ve upgraded their food menu and all the items I tried were delicious. Every experience has been incredible and memorable and I will always come back to indulge once more.

Had a great time at this spot! The food was amazing—lots of creative dishes that were full of flavor. We ended up trying quite a few things off the menu, and everything was on point. The drinks were just as impressive—unique concoctions that really stood out. Definitely a cool vibe overall, perfect for a casual night out or a fun group hang. Highly recommend!

Very knowledgeable and attentive waitress. My drink was tasty and strong. Food was all very good, entrees are definitely on the heavy side. Tried the crumble with vanilla ice cream for dessert and was very good.
