"I visited for brunch on Sunday 3rd September with a couple of friends. Their previous experience was good. This was quite the opposite! The attitude of the server was poor but she could have had a bad morning. We sat in the conservatory section and were handed the menus and a drinks order was taken. A few minutes later the server came back to take our food order. I asked for Eggs Benedict and requested that I swap the ham for streaky bacon. The server said she would ask the chef but it would cost more. One of my friends ordered the Salmon Stack and the other Poached Eggs on Sourdough Toast. When the food arrived the problems arose. My friends poached eggs had yolks that were over cooked and the whites looked as though they had been whisked and as a result held a lot of water. She sent that back. A second attempt by your chef I use that term loosely didn’t fare any better. The yolks may not have been over cooked but you could wring the water out of the toast. It was a soggy mess and inedible. This was subsequently returned. My other friends Salmon Stack seemed to be devoid of the key item Salmon! It was literally a potato cake. My eggs Benedict were terrible. Again the eggs were over cooked and had been placed on lettuce on top of the muffin. As a result of having hot eggs placed on the lettuce it became limp and slimy. Around the dish the Chef had added a balsamic reduction swirl which did nothing to enhance the food, or the presentation. Again the eggs hadn’t been drained properly and this destroyed the muffin which was, like my friends toast , a soggy mess. The streaky bacon that I paid an additional £2 for was undercooked and inedible.The member of staff who cleared the table never checked back to see if everything was okay or asked about the food I left. This was probably the worst brunch I have ever had. Your Chef ? needs some serious training in cookery basics."

"Hi. As I have said before, I only take the time to write a review so that I can share my honest opinions in an attempt to help others. I always give honest opinion be it good or bad. Last Friday evening I ordered a takeaway for five people, via Go Eat service. I was estimated a 40 minute wait, which is about right for a Friday night It now goes down hill from here 1 I only give one star because the system won’t accept zero stars, so my single award is for a reasonably good menu on offer. 2 When my food was 1 hour overdue, I tried several times to call the restaurant. 3 At 90 minutes late my wife finally got a response. My wife explained how late our food was enquiring if we had been overlooked. The very very rude person barked at my wife that they were very busy. My wife tried to get a word in saying that 90 minutes late was unacceptable and started to request a refund, the angry reply continued saying that any issue was with Just Eat and our food had just left the shop, the phone was then put down not allowing my wife to speak any further. Whilst filling in the complaint process on Just Eat our food arrived. That was quite encouraging as we are just over a mile from the shop. 4 I think it’s fair to say that all of our food was poor. It was cold Luke Warm , with only my Roti being hot, all portions were very small indeed. I am using other local restaurants as comparison of portion size. E G we always have the same debate 1 portion of chips or 2, knowing that we each will have some as with the rice. Always we end up saving the second portion until later untouched or only a handful taken. With that in mind this delivery, putting both portions of chips together was roughly 2/3 size of others. Plus I have never seen s potion of rice arrive that isn’t bursting out of the foil container when opened. This one was only just touching the lid as it was heaped up in the middle, presumably where the ladle finished tipping its contents. Finally, I will point out that this is the second time we have used this restaurant, with very similar results previously’ particularly late and Luke warm. I didn’t complain or review them as I like to give the benefit of the doubt. This occasion the sheer rudeness of staff on the phone has prompted my review. Also, you should know I am writing this 5 days later , so it is not ‘knee Jerk’. As an aside my daughter also complained to Just Eat requesting a refund and neither she or my wife have not received any reply. I advise choosing another option for your take away food."
