   The menu has gotten way over priced. Service was very slow. Took 15 minutes to get a coffee, never got a coffee refill. Ordered the English Breakfast and the blood sausage was hard as a stone, had to send it back.

   My partner and I went for afternoon tea. The sandwiches were delicious. The scones were also quite good. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. I will definitely go back again in the future.

   It was a cold and wet night, but all of that disappeared when I entered the restaurant. It was warm, the fire was cozy, everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves and it was bustling for a Wednesday night and restaurant week. The staff seated us quickly and our waitresses arrived promptly. The food was delicious - special shout out to the smoked trout appetizer- and the sticky toffee pudding did not disappoint. All in all a great way to relax with friends.

    Had an excellent lunch for four here yesterday. Loved that the menu offered so many varied choices - more than enough to satisfy everyone. The Caesar salad made with cabbage and tahini dressing was a standout! We ordered that for the table, and it was just enough to share as a first course at lunch. Two of us ordered the grilled chicken sandwich on raisin walnut bread, which was also excellent. Others enjoyed the mussels and the salmon and trout pate. The service was particularly good - very caring as well as efficient and timely, but leisurely enough to allow for conversation. Had not been here for many years, but look forward to dining here again for lunch or dinner.

    We got the deviled eggs which were delicious .we shared a shepards pie pie and bangers and mash Which we both thought meh . We shared the banana trifle which was good . We didn’t do the restaurant week menu because there wasn’t a lot of choices that we wanted . I appetizer 2 entrees 1 dessert 2 beers and 2 coffee $96.00 . It just seems a little too high in price but I guess it’s the world we live in . Waiter was great attentive but not overly so .

    Glad we made reservations as the restaurant was busy. I like the different decor in each section of the restaurant. Lots of food options, everything we had was great, but the portions were small for the pan seared chicken breast, as well as some of the apps. Service was friendly and efficient. I also found the seating layout odd with tables for two running parallel between larger tables on both sides. It was awkward to have people constantly passing your table on both sides.

    What a fun, eclectic place to dine! The food is excellent with such plates as Lamb Shepherd’s Pie, Dandelion Salad, and Sticky Toffee Pudding. Think pub food but with a yummy, fresher twist. My service was spot on too. Will definitely be back!

    We went for brunch on a chilly Sunday morning. Our reservation called for outside seating (presumably heated) but the hostess graciously seated us inside—right next to a roaring fire. With that ambiance, we would have happily eaten gruel. Fortunately, the food and drinks were good and the server personable. We will go back.

    My server, Peter, was very accommodating and helped me to navigate through the many menu choices. The fish and chips were delicious as was the locally made Pilsner. I sat in the upstairs dining room which was very cozy and inviting.

    I've eaten here numerous times and took a colleague visiting from the UK. We asked for a quiet table in a corner or alcove. They seated us in the middle walkway area by the bathrooms across from a loud party of 8. We asked to move immediately and were seated in a corner of the front room. Perhaps because of this service was inattentive and slow. When we weren't ready to put our drink and food order in before we finished getting our coats off, it took 10 minutes for the waitress to return to take drink orders. The remainder of the night went like that. We asked for more bread when the entrees arrived. She said they were done with breads, but she could get us some sourdough. We had finished everything when she returned to see how things were going. Shocked and annoyed at how poor the service was. These are the highlights of the night, not to mention taking 10 minutes to bring some extra olives for a martini.

    The DandelionResponded on January 11, 2023Thank you for your feedback Paul. We are very sorry to hear you had a negative experience and will be reaching out privately to discuss further.
