"Very average service and food. We got to the building about 330 and went in to sit down. When we went in one of the assistants asked if we had ordered. As we hadn't we had to go back outside to the veranda and wait for the other assistant to take our order. We ordered a bacon bap, a sausage bap and two teas it came to £13.50 which did seem expensive but we had high hopes for the food. We went back in to the cafe and sat down. We were next to the radiator but also next to the doorway which had curtains across instead of a door. The curtains were tied back so did not keep the place warm, neither did the radiator unfortunately. The food arrived very underwhelming. The baps must have been kept in the fridge as they were very cold. I think the bacon and sausages had been pre cooked and reheated in a microwave they were hot but not very appetising. The food was served in a paper tray and the tea arrived in paper cups. I am not sure it would have been better in real crockery but at least it would have been better looking! The couple who arrived just before us had their food in real crockery. We realised this as we were leaving so didn't question it but I suspect it was something to do with them knowing the woman who served them. It was a a bit of a sad experience to be honest and an expensive one. We had also paid for parking and had intended to shop in the antiques place as well but neither of us felt inclined after that. I wish we had taken the food back to the car we would have been warmer and I would have felt we had got our money's worth out of the parking. I don't think we would bother again it used to be better so not sure what has happened."

Often call in with friends but not again, What has happened to the yummy home made cakes? And the lovely young lady serving? Had a long wait and need a lesson in customer service

We were disappointed that more effort is not being made to sanitise tables after use. We tried two different tables and they had crumbs and spills on them and we had to ask for them to be wiped down.

We went to celebrate my birthday at strawberry picking and antique hunting. There are 4 floors full of curiosities, we left with enough space in the car to fit the dogs in between all the antiques and fruit we bought!

Myself and my husband came to visit the tearoom for a cream tea and throughly enjoyed it. The scones are delicious and service was fantastic. We have been a number of times for food and to look around the antiques and it is a very quaint business. Am looking forward to going again next week.

Called in here to look at the antiques. We bought a small item and were served by the most miserable sour faced, unfriendly, man we had ever seen. On the way out we bought some of the excellent cakes on offer to take home and were served by a helpful friendly young lady and a jolly friendly young lad. Maybe they could teach the old bloke a few things about customer service ?

Went to this tea room at the antiques centre in Clare after going to the craft fair at the Priory. Beautiful village, lovely, quaint vintage style tea room. Gets the atmosphere exactly right. Vintage crockery and silverware. Great value cream tea for £5, and they warmed the scones. Very friendly proprietress and polite efficient staff. Don’t miss this place, it’s brilliant and effortlessly cool.

We spent a lovely afternoon walking around the Priory and the streets of Clare and returned back to the car park, but passing this 'Cafe ' seeing a free table next to the road, we decided to stop and have a cup of tea. i went to the car to get some water for our dog and my wife said she would order. i returned after a few minutes and neither of the two waitresses had taken our order yet. One was clearing away the table next to us and I tried to make eye contact, but she looked over and went inside. The other waitress started dismantling a board next to our table, still didn 't acknowledge us until my wife asked whether we had to go inside to order. She was told flatly 'we 've stopped taking...

"Was excited to visit for the first time after seeing the award wins for best Mexican in the local news. Looking online the menu looked good so made a booking for 17:30 on a Thursday. On arrival we were seated quickly. The ambiance in the venue is very nice, with real lit candles on each table and twinkly lights up in the beams of the ceiling. I did need to move the candle to the side however as I couldn’t see my partner past it as it was in our eye line. The candle holder is also an old tequila bottle, which is a nice touch but takes a lot of space up on the table. On opening the menu, I noticed it was sticky. Which wasn’t the nicest. As the room is relatively dark I was unable to tell if this was old food or if they’d wiped the menu’s down, but it does make you a little wary. It took a while for the waitress assigned to our section to then come around to take our order. So we ordered drinks and our food at the same time. While waiting for the food to arrive my partner who has type one diabetes was trying to access the internet to look up carb info, unfortunately we noticed that we couldn’t get any signal so asked for the Wi-Fi code. We were brought around the password from the actual Wi-Fi router which contained password but it has been badly scratched so we couldn’t get it to work. Only a small thing to note should you need access to the internet at all during your visit. When the starters arrived I had the taquitos, pork. I have a gluten allergy and stipulated this when ordering but when the starters were brought out there was no indication on the plating that it was gluten free or any second mentioning from the waiting staff. Nether the less, they looked like corn being a yellow colour so proceeded to eat them, and I have to say they were delicious and I would have happily had a new more as a main course. The calamari my partner described as “umm, good, tasty”. Not long after we finished our starters the mains were brought out. I’m my opinion there wasn’t a big enough gap between the starter and the main. As soon as one plate was cleared, the next arrived. My partner ordered the prawn burrito and described it burrito as “Far too big, Far too cheesy, the prawns lacked something. Because it was so cheesy it was quite fatty and greasy and needed something to cut through it all.” He only ate half of it and on clearing the plates away we were offered to take it home but we declined, we made a point on the large portion and the waiter said “yeah, we feed a lot of Americans here”. My dads American and he wouldn’t have eaten the whole burrito. I ordered the chicken and steak fajitas. The steak was cooked nicely but I found it quite tough. The chicken was over cooked and a little dry. However again the portion size was huge and I was unable to eat it all. There was also not enough room on the table for all of the bits, so I had to rest the foiled wraps on my leg. Again I ordered a gluten free option but there was no mention of this when it arrived and this time the wraps were a lighter whiter colour, which caused me concern. In the end I didn’t eat the wraps because they were the same colour as the burrito wrap and as no indication they were gluten free it caused me some anxiety. Getting attention if the waiting staff to double check was difficult so I just left them to the side and ate the meat veg on their own. The couple wraps I did eat I have to say we’re not the nicest. They were quite tough and at the same time tasted undercooked, like there was some raw taste to them. I wouldn’t order it again. Drink wise I ordered the pina colada and again probably wouldn’t order it again. Though there was nothing overly wrong with it, I’ve just had better. Overall, it was just over £60 for two starters, two mains and two alcoholic drinks. I don’t think that’s particularly bad value given the absolute huge portion sizes. It might be worth Amigos offering a small medium large option at different price points so those who don’t want giant burritos fajitas can get the smaller options at a lower value. Amigos might also end up taking more as there was no chance we’d have been able to eat a desert, however if the main had been more appropriately portioned then we likely would have had one. However, in terms of the allergens. It’s great that they offer gluten free alternatives, however please introduce a GF sticker for the plates or get waiting staff to say “Gluten free Fajitas” when serving. It just helps to eliminate any fear that there may have been a mistake in the kitchen and helps diners with allergies to relax and feel more comfortable. As things stand. We wouldn’t return for what we had above. However, there was a good atmosphere in there and I’d possibly return as a place to have a few drinks and share some nachos, just not for a sit down meal."
