Wanted to support a local hotel so tried there for Sunday lunch. The food was tasty although the dessert was a bit disappointing. It did feel like starters and desserts were plated and left - not warmed up. However the restaurant had a really homely feel and the staff were friendly and attentive. We would go back.

Had a fab lunch here with friends. Coronation Chicken sandwich was very tasty, big pieces of chicken in a homemade sauce with 3 slices of bread & crisps on the side! Second time I have been here for lunch and will definitely return! Highly recommend!

There was no one to great us and I couldn't see any staff at all so went to reception. The member of staff was helpful and went to find restaurant staff and was told our table was being laid up. It wasn't busy to I guess they were not expecting us! Residents at the hotel were finishing breakfast, and we (6 of us) were seated in a dark corner with tables pushed up against the wall. The ladies at the end couldn't get their legs under the table and one was right up against a hot radiator. Needles to say we asked to move to one of the many other tables that were available. The staff member was accommodating and bought us prosecco and menus while we waited for them to lay the table. Once at this new table, everything was perfect. The service and the food was very good and we had a lovely time.

We had afternoon tea on a Sunday. The food was below average (although the opera cake was delicious). The service was indifferent, they did nothing to make the experience feel in any way special. We were sat next to the open fire; an opportunity missed as lighting it on a cold autumn’s day would have done a look to create some ambiance. The afternoon tea was just £20 but given the coldness of the atmosphere, easily forgettable food and the strong stench of must in the air (the hotel needs some TLC), I wish we’d just had a pub lunch! Such a shame.

The restaurant was very quiet when we arrived. With no staff around. However when the waitress saw us she sat us down quickly in the empty restaurant. The lack of staff proceeded for most of the night, so service was slow. But the two waiting staff were polite and met our needs. The food was very tasty and all of my party tried different dishes. We had mains and desserts. The pork crackling was burnt, but the edible parts were tasty. The beef burger was well balanced and the fries delicious.

Had afternoon tea, the food was lovely although only 2 flavours of sandwiches as it was confusing what our vegetarian guest should have, as equal numbers came out on two plates. The rest of the food was really tasty and the scones were heavenly The service was a bit sparce. We had to get reception to find someone to seat us. We ordered tea, which came out in pots, but no cups. Waited ages for a staff member,in the end I got my own cups from a dresser in the corner. We well outstayed our welcome due to chatting and we weren't rushed out, which was nice. Overall is was nice, just not the best. (I had been to a posh London hotel for afternoon tea that week so my stardards were high)
