Attended the Baltic last night (saturday) in a party of 7, for a friends birthday. The atmosphere in the Bar and the restaurant was lively enough to be interesting, but with a chilled enough ambience to still be relaxed.
The staff were friendly and happy enough, got everything right, and the food was all brought out in good time, without ever seeming rushed. The one downside is that they were nowhere to be seen if you wanted to order more drinks or deserts etc.
The food itself was excellent. I had meat dumplings to start with and roast rump of Lamb for Main. Others on the table had a variety of Eastern European (Polish?) starters that were a welcome change from the standard fare in a lot of other restaurants. Mains we had ranged from Grilled Fish to hearty casseroles and came with sides of great chips and red cabbage. The varied menu does leave you a bit spoilt for choice. Other options included Roast Partridge, Goose Legs, Black sausage and Steaks.
The wine list was varied in origin and price, there were some different beers to try and a wide range of “Wodka” to choose from.
A very enjoyable evening was had by everyone in our group. If we are back in the area we would definitely return.
