    Not somewhere for a quiet meal. Football on the TV all the time. More a pub atmosphere than a restaurant if you’ve booked for a quiet meal/weekend away!! Food nice enough but had a 30 minute wait. Took 15 minutes to get served too. Breakfast was a much quieter experience.

    Quite frankly appalling experience. Zero engagement from staff, long long waits to order at the bar. Long wait for food. Inedible beef on Sunday roast. Zero atmosphere and then they turned the background music off in favour of screaming at a football match. Please avoid unless you want to order chips drink beer and scream at the large screen TVs. This is NOT a proper restaurant and I feel sorry for any hotel guests who have no other choice of a place to eat. Needs proper management.

    A wait between 10-15 mins at bar every time you needed a drink 1 hour before starters 1hr 30 mins for kids mains 2hrs 30 mins wait for main course 3hrs for kids desserts People that arrived after us got a full refund and food before us Incorrect meal of turkey instead of beef Overall understaffed behind the bar, bad organisation, and no management to deal with the issues was sadly absolute shambles, with a unprecedented amount of people complaining and asking for refunds and no one taking responsibility to rectify it

    The fairly new lay out isn’t good. They’re roast dinner buffet on a Sunday used to be brilliant. Apart from the beef which was cooked beautifully the rest of the food was horrible. Starter selection (buffet) was minimal and also the dessert selection was rubbish. I certainly will not go back for a roast again with my family. The service was atrocious from one girl, she clearly wasn’t great in a customer facing role.

    The roast Turkey or Beef dinners were appalling. So bad that most of us could not eat them. Also theere are no quiet areas just to chill out or have a coffee. The overall noise level was way too loud. We had friends who stayed at the hotel. They both told us that their breakfasts were also inedible. With powdered eggs -not cooked properly. We are very sad about all of this. We have been to the hotel over the years but this is the worst we have ever known it.

    We had the roast dinner which cost £15 and when we received it the veg was all shrivelled and brown where it had been cooked and stored to keep warm all afternoon, the turkey was dry and they only gave you 1 pig in blanket! The place has a nice set uup but I wouldn’t eat there again! This was my first time visiting!
