    Setting is fantastic but this is our second visit & we’re told ran out of a champagne & some main course items ran out ! We went when it first opened & lots of items ran out so had hoped they would have rectified this . Staff whilst pleasant were not that attentive & had to wait a while to get drinks .
    Grain Store at Doddington HallResponded 4 days ago
    Thank you for your feedback. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the setting, but we’re sorry to hear that your experience was impacted by the availability issues and slow service. While we strive to ensure all items are available, there are rare occasions, especially during busy times like the Christmas, when certain items may temporarily run out due to high demand. We appreciate your understanding in these situations and are continually working to improve our preparation to better meet customer expectations. We also regret that the service wasn’t as attentive as you felt it should have been and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We hope to have the opportunity to restore your faith in us and welcome you back to the Grain Store in the future.

    A lovely lunch for 4 in relaxed surroundings upstairs in the grain store. Great service by our super friendly waitress, great food and a very efficient service from all involved. We have eaten downstairs before but much prefer the upstairs with less hustle and bustle. We will definitely return for a tasty and very good value for money meal.

    The food was lovely, the waitress happy and accommodating. For me for the turkey I would have enjoyed smaller roast potatoes and thicker flavoursome gravy, and offered more of.
