The Greenhouse Restaurant in Central Bedfordshire

A dream of a place. Beautiful restaurant with an amazing garden. Food is delicious and art on a plate. The owners are brilliant, making sure that your experience at their restaurant is special. Been there a few times, and cannot think of anything negative to say about the place.

Fantastic please service unbelievable . Never been restaurant like this anywhere food amazing stuff very professional and friendly . Anyone never been there missing out

Amazing food, amazing atmosphere, treated like royalty. I cannot rate St. Helena highly enough, I would have given six stars if I could.

As total food snobs this is the best restaurant we've eaten at in a very long time.Staff were pleasant, service was prompt and personally we liked the simple fixed per head price.We left it very late to book an evening meal for six on a Friday night after our wedding. But they made a massive effort to accommodate us but be warned book early to avoid dissappoinent.

Always a pleasure to dine at this amazing restaurant. We have always dined in the main dinner area/conservatory but found ourselves, (maybe because it was a later time) seated in the bar area. Ambiance wasn't as nice. Can never fault the delicious food and staff though. We'll be back in July for our anniversary.

Honestly, the place is beautiful. The service was a bit hit and miss due to not having one person serving each particular table. There were nice touches like complementary courses and a drink at the end. But the biggest factor that would mean me not returning was that the food had hardly any flavour. Which for the price was really disappointing. My main had veg with chilli and garlic I couldn't taste either and the dessert looked amazing but the pretty little dots of coloured syrup literally tasted of nothing. Really disappointed with that. If i was being totally honest would have only given 3 stars but feeling generous...

Absolutely fantastic. Superb atmosphere, staff, food and drink. I can't recall having a better dining experience.

The food menu is full of fresh ideas. Premium cuts, thought through layers of flavours and textures, posh Fish and Chips, simple things like nduja roast potatoes show how some things don't need to be reinvented just do the really well. Add to it huge selection of wines and the cosy atmosphere with colours and lights just right for the evening that's about you. Staff is always there when you need them and no more. It was pleasant to see multiple generations represented within serving staff and loads of diverse backgrounds.By far the most welcoming element of this place is the fact that the owners themselves are out there amongst service checking on their guests and showing interest in them and their desires. Raff and Franco live the life of true restaurateurs. The art of this profession has been transforming a lot over the last few decades and somehow it is Italians hospitality that keep it alive more than anyone. These two brothers in law stick to what this profession is about. Be a host and face the customer, create memories for them and they will come back for more.

You just cannot beat The St Helena for the quality of food and the ambiance, Raff and Frank go out of their way to make your evening special, the restaurant staff are superb. We are very lucky to have this quality restaurant in Bedford.

Just stumbled across this restaurant online and it's great reviews! We tried it tonight for our annivasary. We couldn't possibly recommend enough. Everything was perfect. Food was amazing. Service was great. The whole experience was wonderful. We're be back time and time again. Thank you! Xx
