Lovely food, really good gluten free afternoon tea option. Drinks options on bottomless brunch were great, loads of choice. Very friendly staff, nice atmosphere. Only thing I felt was a little much was the service charge, but we did get good service so paid it.

Went for my husbands birthday for an afternoon tea. Staff were very disorganised and we were truly disappointed with the service and food. Sandwiches which they had ‘put together’because chef had gone home early, the tiniest scones in the world and disappointing tiny dry cake. I was expecting far more and not worth the money.

The most awful experience!! service was terrible, I will never go back. We booked an afternoon tea as a special treat for our daughters 16th Birthday. We made a reservation for 1pm and arrived 20 minutes early, we booked in at reception and was told to wait in the bar area until the table was ready. We waited an hour, I went and asked when we would be seated, the staff member said they didn't release we was there to eat, even though I asked the same person that booked us in when we arrived!! We then got guided to our table, the waiter said he would return shortly to take our drinks order, we waited another 25 minutes but nobody came back, at this point we decided to leave. I found this unbelievable as there wasn't anybody else in the bar or restaurant, the staff couldn't even say there were busy!! I couldn't bring myself to pay £25 a head for such a bad service.

Arrived for a birthday cream tea. No mention of birthday even though it was asked when booking. Food was mediocre. Sandwiches average. Desserts were dry and non descript. Scones were delicious, service was good but chose not to pay the xtra £20 optional service charge. (A £10 tip given to the waitress). Setting was lovely, sofas in the lounge, but I wouldn’t return. There are too many other places offering excellent food and this didn’t compete.
