Amazing food. Hygiene score you can forgive.
The food slaps and hygiene is "Good" — not perfect, but nothing to worry about. Go for it.
Bar & Bistro @ Wixams is like the retirement home you didn't know you needed. With a buzzing atmosphere, you’d think it’s a party every day of the week. The Thursday night dance-offs are legendary, and who doesn’t love a place where the most exciting thing is a live band? The decor is posh hotel vibes, and if you’re lucky, you might even find yourself in the middle of a spontaneous dance class. It’s a solid pick for a casual meal or when you want to feel fancy without the pomp.
The food might be a bit on the pricier side, but it’s decent enough to justify the extra change. You’re not exactly getting Michelin-starred cuisine, but the overall experience is delightful, clean, and friendly, making it a reliable stop after a long day of... well, whatever it is retirees do. If you're looking for a wholesome meal in a cheerful space, this is your jam.
