"I’ve been to Middletons a few times before and always a had a good experience/food. I was looking forward to the meal all week. First thing I said when we sat down was ‘this is a cosy table of 8’ our elbows were literally touching the next table. Felt uncomfortable having any sort of conversation as everyone was looking. None of the spot lights above us were turned on, we had to turn the torch on our phones on to read the menu, as did people either side of us. The only section in the restaurant with no lights on. We were told when booking and when we arrived that the table had to be back by 8.30. Starters came out 7.16pm we joked and said we’d be out by 7.45pm if it’s this quick. Wrong! We had to ask for our mains at 8.05pm. The veg in my halloumi and veg skewers was slightly warm and didn’t looked grilled at all. We asked for some more drinks in the long gap as we were getting thirsty and the waitress brought over someone else’s and even read out our correct drinks from the ticket and apologised. When I got my mains of steak and chicken with jacket and greens.. the chicken was half the size I’ve previously had and dry, steak was fine. Greens were cold and crunchy and potato was raw and hadn’t been baked in the oven at all and rushed in the microwave. Waitress was very apologetic and replaced these straight away. Both male and female toilets had a cubicle that needed assistance. Lighting in there was so bad that my husband walked in to another man as they just couldn’t see. When we also got up to leave, we knocked everything off the next table as they were so close, so that was embarrassing picking it all up. We should have asked for money off but just wanted to get out of there. This is the first time we haven’t tipped in a restaurant ever and my husband joked it was that bad he feels like setting up a trip advisor account just to leave a review. What a shame. As it was Valentine’s Day, I feel we’ve all been crammed in and rushed out. We certainly got forgotten."

"At this place apparently the duck can only be served pink like, very very pink or well done. This was the first thing that really baffled me, and it was actually pretty funny, but I have never heard such a thing for such a fancy lookin place to not be able to cook a duck properly. It really makes no sense because surely you put duck in the oven, and after 30 minutes, it 's pink, 50 minutes, it 's well done, so why not take it out at 40??? This was the first problem. The second issue was I ordered the creme brulee, quite excited about that, but it came out at it was literally not cooked like not at all . It was a soup! My mother insisted I send it back I really hate doing that , but the point was that it was literally not cooked and was soupy, and contained raw egg, so anyway, a lovely server came by and was able to bring my creme brulee back, and I asked for just a new one. Well, amusingly, the server comes back with a solemn look on her face and says, I 'm sorry, you cannot have the creme brulee, because *all* the creme brulees are like that .... HUH?! And we were like the last table to be seated so all night they 've been serving souping uncooked creme brulees to people?? At the end, my mother kindly paid the bill, but I noticed only after that she had paid for the creme brulee that I didn 't eat omg . A server came by and asked if something was wrong because they saw us scrutinizing the bill. My mother said that it was nothing other than we accidentally paid for the creme brulee. They said they would try to refund it, but the manager came over and said it usually takes 3-5 business days after a form was filled out by us, but after the look on my mother 's face after just kind of a rollercoaster of a meal , they said they would try to expedite it. Anyway, the manager was very proud of themselves when they refunded us not only for the creme brulee but the service charge the 70p associated with it. Anyway, if you go here avoid the duck and creme brulee lol"
