"Now, normally we visit wings quite often, and we know the perils of buffet style restaurants. But today was a real eye opener. Now, they usually have two sittings Mon to sat, Sunday been all day, we arrived, for the second sitting, advertised 4-45 pm, to a busy reception area, people leaving, others queuing. We paid, and were sent straight downstairs to the restaurant . Which had a fair few people already in. We were seated close to the pudding section. Our drinks arrived, which we had paid for upstairs, along with the food. Then we went up for the food, certainly a large selection of foods, as always, much prefer wings, to the other buffet in St Stephens, which is tiny in comparison. On our visits, weve not always been keen on some of the foods, personal choice, had the odd issue, but overall it 's pretty good for a buffet. My first plate, I head to the back wall, fill the plate on, prawns, beef, ribs, chicken, skewers, etc. Then, returned for my favourite lamb curry, and doner meat from the other hot plates. Cannot fault the food up to now, I went back up to the middle section, duck, breaded chicken drumsticks, spare ribs in sauce, salted prawns, other breaded chicken, and prawn curry. Notice I 'm not into chips and noodles, rice etc, I 'm buffets worst nightmare, meat eater, they prefer you eat chips, noodles,the cheap items. The wife, my daughter enjoyed their choices, the wife 's favourite like mine is the lamb curry. My child loves having the freedom to choose her meal. Their is a vast amount of different foods you could have, Now my main issues, yes buffets are known for what they are, and it 's your choice whether you use them. I 've previously been in the toilets were people have walked out not washing their hands. People are walking in off the streets with no place to wash their hands, something personally I think should be interduced to this buffet place, and Inforced. Two, literally watching people picking up food, whilst staff literally watch, the tongs, I 've never seen staff clean, after all the manhandling that gets done. The place was rammed, I 'd never seen it this busy, on any visit We were next to the pudding section, and this place had a lot of children tonight, obviously we watched as the masses invaded this section. The amount of kids, picking up puds, putting them back, poking puddings, one child even though he used the tongs, picked up a jelly cube and took a bite, before he went to put it back, only for his mother I presume, stopping him. Another, waiting In the queue, picking his nose, then picking up the tongs, ohhh come on "

"I am writing this review on behalf of my mum and her friend who recently had an upsetting and unpleasant experience at Ruby Spice. They had booked a table in the name of Wednesday 19th August at 7pm. The table was booked over the telephone and on this call, they advised Ruby Spice that within the party of 4 there were 2 wheelchair users. They was assured by the gentleman on the phone that the restaurant was wheelchair friendly. However, upon arriving at the restaurant the party was unable to gain access to the restaurant. Steps inside the entrance and no room for manouvering made it impossible for the wheelchairs to enter safely. A member of staff did say he would help them to get in, but he was unable to do so; and after trying he just walked off and didn't offer any apology or explanation. After that, not one other member of staff came to speak to/assist the party. The whole situation was very embarrassing and upsetting for everyone, especially as other diners were trying to assist. Understandably, they left the restaurant, deciding to go to neighbouring Meze to eat, as it was so close by and it was pouring with rain. Although they had good food and service at Meze, the dining experience there was marred by the fact all four were rain soaked due to the debacle of trying to enter Ruby Spice premises, not to mention they were understandably still upset. In addition, one of the reasons that they chose Ruby Spice was to take advantage of the government's Eat Out to Help Out scheme and unfortunately the party ended up spending much more money than they anticipated at the Meze restaurant. We have emailed the restaurant with these details and awaiting a reply. We have suggested that they ensure all staff are aware of this incident, as to avoid embarrassment and distress to future customers."

"If you’ve got kids swan and cygnet is not the place to go. Me my sister in law, mother in law, my son (age 1), daughter and niece (both age 3) booked a table at 4:45 so bare in mind a respectable family hour for...a “family pub” Ten minutes after sat down a lady came and shushed my son I didn’t think anything of it I thought she was just joking and communicating with him as he was making noises as a one year old does. Very happy and chatty noises. Ten minutes goes by and another young girl this time came over and said could you ask the children to be quiet please.. My answer was he’s one years old you can’t just make them be quiet so she apologised and said it’s fine don’t worry. Another ten minutes goes by and the older lady comes back over and says “I’m sorry but you need to make them be quiet” So my daughter and neice were sat giggling and chatting they wasn’t misbehaving and certainly wasn’t be disruptive to any other tables in the “family pub”. They remained at the table and wasn’t running around. Our food came and the beef was literally still mooing.. I understand some people like it like that but they never even asked a preference on how we’d like it cooking. My mother in laws was inedible and mine wasn’t much better! We told the staff as they cleared the table how we couldn’t eat the meat but they wasn’t bothered in the slightest. We asked for the bill left the money and went to leave. As we left we told the staff how they made us feel and they continued to make out how bad our children were when in reality just because they wasn’t sat at the table with iPads and ear phones on like most children in there they didn’t like it! All three children are very happy children and I strongly disagree with how we have been treat. We come in regular, recommend it to family and friends and even supported them a lot throughout covid buying food to take away! If Covid was to teach businesses anything it should be to appreciate and respect their customers. Especially the regular ones. Myself and my family will not be returning and I will not be recommending them again. Very disappointed and angry with how we have just been treat."

"I have had a number of pleasant and relaxing visits to Lydia's Cake away. It has been amazing each visit, with a streamlined menu to meet a number of differing, customers requirements . In addition, Lydia, the owner is welcoming, smiling and extremely friendly. Nothing is to much trouble, the food, nibbles, cakes and drinks are beautiful, at tasty competative prices. Morover, her delights are homemade, her baking is exquisite, that's for sure, and presentation makes for a great experience with bespoke China pottery. This little cafe is a popular meeting place for many, hosting varied events for different occasions, such as a recent Harry Potter themed events, and can be booked for even clubs and get togethers . There are plenty of options including, varied dietery and allergy requirements that are and can be catered for, not to mention veggie based products. Furthermore, it is relaxing, watching the world go bye through the oanaramic window, overlooking Newland Avenue. The foods you will find and to be reccomended through experience are bagels, with cream cheese and strawberries, cheese and Tomato toasties with salad and tortilla chips. Finally, Earl Grey tea in China cups, topped off with a slice of cake, for me it was lime cake, to comiment the savoury course. Great coffee shop, pleasant owner and staff, bespoke surroundings, relaxing and has a 5 on the door, not surprised, its lovely and clean, a little hidden gem. The cafe and owner welcomes changing for people who would like to bring their babies, children, toddlers to a warm and embracing envoiroment . A must for all, Lydia has put her heart and sole into this cafe, and it shows, I could sit their all day and often do and she always remembers conversations had to follow up when you return, impressive ! Give this local place and Lydia and team your support!!!!!"
