review:
We
had
lunch
here
on
29th
December
2022.
As
I
made
the
booking
I
was
emailed
a
request
for
a
review
afterwards.
I
decided
to
email
the
hotel
directly
(sadly
with
no
acknowledgement
at
all)
and
this
is
what
I
wrote:
Hi
Team,
Rather
than
post
a
less
than
favourable
review
publicly,
I
thought
I'd
let
you
know
how
I
found
our
visit.
Parts
of
our
experience
were
good,
other
parts
were
quite
disappointing.
The
size
of
the
meals
were
generous,
both
adult
and
kids
meals.
My
partners
side
salad
was
delivered
without
dressing.
Maybe
that's
how
you
serve
them
but
it
looked
as
though
it
had
started
to
dry
out
a
little.
The
kitchen
staff
did
well
getting
our
meals
out
at
roughly
the
same
time
even
though
there
were
several
orders
from
our
table
at
the
same
time.
The
toilets
were
clean.
What
was
disappointing
was
that
at
least
3
water
glasses
that
we
helped
ourselves
to
weren't
clean.
I
had
to
go
back
and
ask
for
clean
glasses
as
the
rack
hadn't
been
topped
up.
The
house
Sauv
Blanc
was
not
as
cold
as
it
could've
been.
I
did
go
back
to
the
bar
and
asked
for
a
glass
of
ice.
I
was
disappointed
that
the
bar
staff
on
several
occasions
were
less
than
attentive
when
I
was
at
the
bar
for
service.
I
realise
that
some
staff
were
assisting
other
customers
and
one
staff
member
was
making
coffees,
but
the
staff
members
who
clearly
weren't
assisting
anyone
seemed
oblivious
to
me
standing
waiting
to
be
served
(this
happened
more
than
once),
to
the
point
that
one
staff
member
who
was
making
a
drink
for
another
customer
was
using
her
eyes/head
to
try
to
indicate
to
a
fellow
staff
member
that
I
was
waiting
to
be
served.
No
empty
glasses
were
cleared
from
our
table
in
the
whole
time
we
were
seated.
Once
we
had
all
finished
our
meals
our
plates
remained
on
the
table
for
close
to
an
hour.
There
were
very
few
customers
left
in
the
dining
room
during
this
time.
Even
when
the
children
collected
their
ice
creams
they
had
to
move
their
plates
to
have
their
dessert.
This
was
the
first
time
I'd
been
to
your
venue.
It
was
recommended
by
my
cousin
as
it
is
family
friendly
with
the
children
able
to
enjoy
the
play
centre.
Further
staff
training
would
improve
the
whole
experience.
****Dinner
on
29th
December
2023****
We
had
a
group
of
9
adults
and
3
children
and
several
people
in
our
group
ordered
separately.
Our
main
courses
were
delivered
to
our
table
reasonably
quickly,
but
at
no
time
during
our
visit
were
glasses,
the
wine
bottle
or
plates
removed
by
the
wait
staff.
After
about
an
hour
of
finishing
our
main
courses
we
moved
empty
glasses,
plates
and
cutlery
to
the
empty
table
next
to
us.
The
bistro
was
not
what
I'd
call
busy,
with
about
half
the
tables
vacant.
Wait
staff
delivered
food
to
the
table
but
went
back
to
the
kitchen
empty
handed.
This
same
pattern
was
repeated
for
all
customers
that
I
could
see.
We
ordered
dessert
and
after
some
time
my
partner
went
to
check
on
our
order.
He
was
advised
the
desserts
would
only
be
a
few
more
minutes.
The
desserts
served
warm
had
been
heated
on
the
same
plates
that
they
were
served
on,
so
the
ice
cream
was
either
half
melted
or
partly
melted
and
very
soft
when
it
was
delivered
to
the
table.
This
was
really
disappointing
as
the
sticky
date
and
chocolate
brownie
(to
replace
the
creme
brulee
that
was
ordered,
that
we
found
was
unavailable
as
the
desserts
were
delivered
to
our
table)
could
easily
have
been
heated
on
a
separate
plate
then
placed
on
to
a
chilled
or
room
temperature
plate
with
the
ice
cream.
It
is
really
disappointing
that
the
service
has
not
improved
in
12
months.
Not
sure
if
we'll
be
back.
