    Fantastic restaurant. Staff couldn't do enough for us, cocktails were great, excellent choices on the menu, and all reasonably priced for the area. Cannot recommend enough.

    Friendly, welcoming vibe with top-quality food. The beef roast did not disappoint and everyone enjoyed their starter, main and dessert equally. Patricia our server offered a friendly banter. Highly recommend the Tropical Express cocktail.

    Best restaurant in Staines - this is the breath of fresh air that the town needs to move on from the relentless number of chain restaurants coming and going in the area. Food is creative, impeccably prepared and thoughtfully presented. The service from a young team is outstanding - many restaurants could learn from the training and care provided.

    Spent Mothers Day at Cornelian, treating my family to a celebratory meal. It was fantastic! We had 3 courses and they were all wonderful! The staff were really attentive. They worked as a team and we felt really well looked after. I didn’t catch all their names apart from Sophie. I highly recommend Cornelian. A great venue for a special occasion or just for a great bite to eat. Their Sunday Roasts are top notch! See you there! We’ll be going back!

    Easily the best place to eat and drink in Staines, along with it's sister restaurant Corneli's. Delicious food, and amazing cocktails. The staff can't do enough for you either. We find ourselves celebrating every event at one of these two restaurants.
