Nestled in the bustling Esher High Street, Seven Bluebirds is a unique and ambitious undertaking, serving breakfast through to dinner throughout the week. From free-flowing Prosecco at brunch to expertly crafted cocktails with a candlelit dinner, this is a dining experience that is sure to entertain regardless of the occasion. The true charm of this restaurant is the dedication and knowledge of the staff, which is reflected in the quality of the food and outstanding service.
The first hint of the inclusive and varied nature of Seven Bluebirds, from the moment you walk through the door, is the range of seating available. Tables for two next to the French windows offer a relaxed and breezy setting for a summer evening, while the much more intimate ‘lovers booth’ is tucked away from the bar and other diners, offering a more private dining experience. Cosy leather sofas accommodate larger parties and make for the ideal setting to relax and unwind after a long week - highlighted by the beautiful, one of a kind, Umbria style mirror.
Regardless of the time of day, Seven Bluebirds takes a great deal of pride in offering a selective range of food, with options available guaranteed to suit everyone including a range of vegetarian and vegan dishes. The staff are on hand to give their own experienced opinions and recommendations and can suggest the perfect pairing from a range of wines around the world.
The most impressive aspect of Seven Bluebirds is the passion to create dishes that are unique and entirely original. Meat and fish are all sourced locally and meals are prepared in-house to ensure the highest quality - the beef short rib bourguignon is outstanding, with every aspect prepared from scratch in the kitchen right down to the red wine reduction. One might be forgiven for assuming that the kitchen would prioritise quality over quantity, but this could not be further from the truth - every plate features a very generous serving.
The seasonal menus shine throughout the year, with a breakfast menu served all day offering classic and modern dishes such as avocado toast, breakfast baps and the 'Bluebird Benny'. A lunch menu offers light bites as well as a range of sandwiches and burgers, such as the ‘Bluebird Toastie’ and the ‘Bluebird Burger’. The evening menu offers an impressive range of starters through to desserts, and owner Daryl is always on hand to offer his suggestions and a delicious cocktail - try the spicy mojito!
Esher undoubtedly has a range of dining options available for any occasion, and yet in amongst the competition, Seven Bluebirds is undoubtedly a standout gem. Tucked away from the pubs and bars in a quieter end of the high street, the food really does need to be tasted to be believed while the impeccable level of service is no doubt a result of a combination of over 40 years of experience working in the finest hotels and restaurants across the globe.
Seven Bluebirds is a unique and welcome addition to Esher High Street, with a clear vision that is reflected throughout. Whether visiting for a coffee, a romantic meal or a night of celebrating in one of Surrey’s most cosmopolitan towns, the experience promises to be an unforgettable one that will keep you coming back for more.
