I recently visited Barracuda Bushey and was really impressed. The atmosphere is lively but still comfortable, with a great mix of music and people. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we were looked after all evening. The food came out quickly and was cooked perfectly especially the burgers and wings. Drinks were reasonably priced and the cocktails were spot on. Definitely one of the best spots in Bushey for a relaxed evening out with friends or a casual date.

Visited this branch for 1st time with a family member for lunch, the staff were friendly. The downside of my meal which was a chicken salad which on the whole was nice apart from the clumps of salt that seem to be in parts of the chicken slices If it wasn't for that I would have enjoyed my meal. There is parking at rear, the 1st hour is free the you need to pay. The restaurant had a nice atmosphere & there is seating in the back which has glass all around.

An excellent spot for lunch, plenty of tables available for walk-ins. The service is friendly, and the food is good, although the pizza base could have done with a little more salt. The prices were very reasonable, and all the pasta dishes were lovey. A wonderful atmosphere, They have a nice glass extension in the rear.

Like the fish, it was started off pretty much empty and alone with just the family but not long after, again like the fish, all the locals gathered like a schools of... The location of the place wasn't hard to find, there was a bus stop not too far away which is very helpful. The interior was nice, nothing too special but nice. The food was rather nice, we didn't expect too much but we did enjoy everything we ordered that day, even our little one ate more than usual. The staff were very polite, they did check up on us when needed but when it got busy, it was pretty hectic. So perhaps a few more staff during peak times. Highly recommend.

Lovely place, amazing food! We ordered many items in veg and non veg both, everything was delicious. From starters, main course to desserts. A little on the expensive side than regular restaurants, but I wouldn't mind overspending on such an amazing food and dine in experience. Also they serve good portions of each dish, so it is worth. Weekends might be busy, so do call and make reservations in advance to avoid long waiting time. We reserved the place for brunch, so no issues. They have ample space, but I wouldn't take a chance to find space as the food (specially desert) is super delicious!

They make a really fantastic brunch until 12pm if you're up early enough go for it! They have options to change your bread and/or your eggs! Unfortunately they don't do swaps but they taste delicious and the food is always high quality! Staff deliver quick, efficient but wonderful service! I would highly recommend them! 5 stars!
