Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"BR6 is run by the most passionate and enthusiastic teachers & coaches, imparting their depth of experience & industrial knowledge to the trainee front of house team and trainee chefs. The food is nothing but amazing and up until the summer term, getting a table at this exquisite eatery has been simple and first option to dine in locally, and this says something, when you consider how many places to dine are near by! I know I speak for the loyal diners when I say, it is a shame your service is not expanding and open as it was. Serving only pastries and coffee compared to the taster menus or the summer, focal events to celebrate different occasions throughout the year.. is just sad. As a local secondary school teacher in Technology and food, this is the one place I have to this point highly recommended students to go. Please sort this out Orpington College, you have a willing staff, local and regular supporters/diners of your beautiful restaurant that want to be dined."
"Attended a business event with a guest, where the Restaurant had been booked out specifically for the evening and we had all chosen our menu in advance from a varied set menu. The food was wonderful, the event itself excellent and the front of house very helpful. Not everything ran smoothly in the service, however, with it being a Student Led restaurant, this was not expected and things were corrected swiftly when required. Our 3 course dinner with wine was £45 per head, but that included some money towards the Charity hosting the event, so is not indicitive of their typical prices, but even at that price it represents great value. Marking it fairly, I'm giving 4 out of 5 stars. If you allow for the fact that it's a Student led restaurant, it is of course 5 stars. Great work all involved, keep it up."
"Limited menu options (only pastries on Monday and Friday), but a really nice place and the staff are amazing: polite, friendly and super helpful."
"Great staff and ambience, but since some are still learning can sometimes be a bit slow. Food is great, but menu is rather small. Some small changes like allowing guests to choose how they would like their eggs cooked and serving it with some bread instead of chips would be a great option for example."
"Just had a couple of toast and a lovely chai latte. Great place, very happy with the service, all the waitresses are smiling and eager to help you. I highly recommend it."
"Superb Afternoon Tea. Sandwiches and cakes all delicious and freshly made. Excellent choices of coffees and teas all at a reasonable price point. The presentation was top drawer and the serving staff were attentive and professional. Highly recommended."
"Lovely place run by the college and the students great food and amazing service and all very affordable, would recommend to everyone"
"Absolutely quality service! Myself and my brothers came for the carvery (as pictured) and we got the homemade potato and leek soup to start, steak with roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese and mixed greens with a chocolate deluce to round it off. Harry was exceptionally professional above and beyond service, coming back to check everything was okay and ensuring that we had plenty of refreshments to go alongside our meals, he even held the door open for us as we left. I would highly recommend eating here at £25.95 for a three course meal that's a bargain and a half!"
