"I brought my parents to you as I am a big fan of the chestnut pubs and was confident they’d enjoy a meal there. We had a good afternoon but sadly did leave with some disappointments. The main disappointment was my dads roast beef. Sadly it was not enjoyable for him. The beef was very gristly and fatty, making it very difficult to cut. As a butcher, he knew sirloin shouldn’t have been this fatty, must have not been trimmed out, which was a massive shame. The rest of our food was okay, we had two fish and chips (although the batter was overdone) but I have to say the chorizo burger was lovely. When we made our waiter aware of the beef, he said he’ll tell the chef but we didn’t get anything back from him or any compensation, which could have made us feel a bit better. Overall I was disappointed from the meal and makes me think twice eating at one of your pubs again which again is a massive shame because I really do think your pubs are lovely. Will continue to come for drinks but probably not again for a meal. I hope to hear back from someone? Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: £40–50 Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4"

"The atmosphere is fantastic, with a truly unique English-style pub vibe. Unfortunately, the food and table service fell short of expectations. The waiting staff seemed to operate at their own pace, making us feel guilty whenever we requested something like water or wine. It was also hard to identify who the staff were in the restaurant. When we expressed our dissatisfaction with an incomplete meal and inedible food, we were told that no one else had complained that day, with no offer of an apology. As noted in other reviews, several menu items were unavailable during peak hours. The food itself was disappointing; the potatoes were undercooked and the meat was tough. It's such a shame because I really wanted this to be a special occasion. It has the potential to be an exceptional place, but we won't be returning."

"Attended The Lowry for a function. The staff at reception were attentive and helped with luggage which is always appreciated. Rooms were gorgeous, well cleaned and left me feeling sad about the other 'nice ' hotels I 'd stayed in before. The staff during the function were very good at keeping us topped up on our drinks and the food served was of a good quality. The bed was comfy, I 'd have preferred former pillows but that 's just a personal preference and had I been inclined to ask I have no doubt they would have been available. Toiletries you 've forgotten are available on request from reception but the products provided in the room were of a high quality. I felt my shower was great but my colleague didn 't appreciate the water pressure provided by the very large waterfall head. A nice touch was some Easter Eggs in the room for our stay over the Easter weekend. Breakfast was buffet style with some other special items made to order, I 'd suggest checking this menu out but the basics I had for breakfast were very tasty and of high quality. Every member of staff I dealt with over the duration of the stay were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. As this was a work related trip the room wasn 't paid for by me, but the prices are high and maybe wouldn 't be my first choice due to budget for a weekend away, but for special occasions or a good mid week deal I would look here before other high end city locations."

"Me and my grandparents went into this place knowing how normally good it is but it was the complete opposite. We have recently experienced problems with the app it will appear that the manager doesn’t get it either. We are very regular costumers and found this visit extremely disappointing. We began not being able to take all of our rewards off (we fully understand the terms and conditions involved. After half an hour of going round in circles and being made to feel very uncomfortable we eventually got down near to the price that we were supposed to and expected to pay. But the manager was very disrespectful to us and unprofessional. We left the restaurant paid the bill and left with a very bad taste in our mouths. Not happy somebody needs to look at staff training when the app goes down."

"We were a group of 10 who visited this restaurant on August 25th. We chose to sit outside, which was lovely. Both the waitress and the maitre d were fantastic and went above and beyond to make our experience enjoyable. The starters, including the white calamari and shrimp with a crispy coating, were delicious. The stuffed mushroom starter was particularly incredible. The main courses were also delicious, with every dish prepared perfectly. The staff were friendly and welcoming throughout our meal. The desserts were impressive in size, beautifully presented, and extremely tasty. The restaurant has ample parking and a playground for children. Overall, this is a fantastic choice for those who enjoy Italian cuisine and is a must-visit for anyone in the area."

"We decided to go for dinner at pizza express Oxted this evening but unsure of what time. I checked the website to see what time they closed and it said 22:30. I called the restaurant to check what was the latest time to place an order for food and they told me 22:15. They said there was no need to book a table as they weren’t busy. We arrived at 21:30 to be greeted by an empty restaurant and all staff staring at us like they’d seen a ghost! A male member of staff then asked “takeaway?” I said “no, I called 20 minutes ago to ask when last orders were and was told 22:15, it is only 21:30” the staff members then all looked at each other shocked and one said “but we’ve cleaned the kitchen!” They spoke amongst themselves for a short time while we stood waiting and then we were told it was fine and to take a seat and they’d get us some food. Obviously this is extremely unwelcoming. I called ahead of time to ensure there was space for us and that we were there in plenty of time to order food so we didn’t get there at the last minute and make everyone wait. We then placed our order quickly. Whilst we were eating our starter, a lady, who Ivan only assume was the manager as she was not wearing uniform, was leant on the counter staring at us while spinning her keys in her hands, she then started wandering around. It was the most unwelcoming experience I have ever had in a restaurant. Perhaps this would have been acceptable if we had arrived 1 minute before they had stopped serving food, however, we checked the time and arrived 45 minutes before they stopped taking orders. This was most unwelcoming, had I not been so tired I would have left and gone elsewhere, but I just wanted to eat dinner and go home. The food was delicious, no problems there. Just the unprofessional welcome of all staff members especially the manager who stood and stared at us while we ate our food which made us feel slightly uncomfortable."

"When I travel south down the moterways, I stop off at my usual filling stations....but if I have more time Ive got some nice options in Moffat, Kirby Longsdale and Lancaster to name a few. When Im heading north, it usually Kinross Servicies for comfort break and a snack. But this trip north. my dughter decided to give The Court house a try. Thankfully she has the knack for picking great places. No booking, but they squeezed us in late lunch time. After a short wait in vestibule, we were shown to a table. Simple sour dough sandwiches, all freshly prepared were just what we needed to get us ready to continue our journey. Cant say anything more than they were great and kitchen staff know their job. Front of house were equally efficiant and Kinross is lucky to have this place on their doorstep. Will make time for this place in future journeys."

"A must visit. Turned up here late evening for dinner while we stayed in Crawley and we really enjoyed it. The curry was delicious. The Orzo salad was so nice that I’ve started to make it at home once a week. The Iskender probably needs some adjustments but I’ve had Iskender in the past in Turkey so of course the vegan version will not be the same. The home made cheesecake is by far the nicest cheesecake (vegan or non vegan) I’ve ever had. Will definitely come back to try more dishes!"

"So pleased we found this pub! The service was friendly and welcoming, the garden is well kept and shady in places BUT the food was absolutely delicious!! I really wanted to have a salad but didn't fancy the 2 on the menu as don't eat meat, on request I had a salad with falafel and it was to die for, that dressing of nettles, ginger and lime was so good. My plate was pilled high with a large selection of Very fresh veg and I enjoyed every bite. My husband had fish and he couldn't get it into his month fast enough, it was so good : We enjoyed it so much we went back 2 days later, I had the same salad (of course and my husband tried your sausages which he said were top quality, our Westie had a bit and he also agreed. Well done to you all for such great food, service and atmosphere. We will be back!"

"We discovered this fabulous restaurant on our 1st visit to a Buckland rental Cottage for a month in 2017, a 2-week Christmas visit in 2018 with Christmas Day dinner reservation made from the USA with Carol. Three more one month long stays in 2019, 2021 (Buckland rentals) and 2023 rental right here in Childswickham and stays always include multiple lunches and dinners. Sadly, we will have our last dinner tomorrow night, prior to our return to the USA very early Saturday morning"

"Such a shame we knew they didn’t have the full vegan menu (October 2020) but still had good options, popped in Tuesday afternoon to check for a family lunch the following day and were told we couldn’t book outside tables but to come before 3.30 after which they just served pizza. Arrived Wed 1.30, shown outside by a very friendly man we met at the door who I took to be the manager went to ask for menus and were told they weren’t serving food outside! No tables available inside (prefer outdoor anyway currently), wondered about takeaway sit out? But no. Ended up in the pub opposite with a bowl of chips as only vegan option. Will try again another time as it sounded good. Disappointing though."

"Been wanting to try the artichoke for lunch for ages, went today.....perhaps not the best of days....apparently a member of staff was a no show which meant the one lady behind the bar was a running all over the place and we waited for 45 minutes for a baguette and chips. The baguette was actually a soft sub roll, which was OK but not a baguette. Half of the fish fingers were mostly batter. Chips were good, so were the onion rings. A heads up to the wait for food would have been good. On the whole...OK....Will try again I think, but not yet."
"With no water in our village due to an accident and damaged pipeline, cooking at home wasn't so appealing so we headed off to our favourite bar and restaurant, the Corner House. The place was busy and technically full as many people had the same idea, but the staff rallied round to make room for us and despite them being run off their feet, the food and service was still absolutely fantastic. Congratulations to Luke and the rest of the staff, you really pulled it out of the bag... and this is exactly why we go back there time and time again. We couldn't recommend it more, 5 stars every time."

"Back from our holiday in England I just have to say that, after a long journey from Cologne in our mobile home, walking into the Hinds Head was just about as close to Heaven as I'm ever going to get! The pub itself, so warm and cosy, the smell of their wonderful food, the welcoming staff I wish I could put it into a bottle for a bad day! The food was heavenly too, especially the roast. It took our minds off the bad weather as well. Thank you all again and we look forward to coming back. Su"

"We have been home a month now from our visit and we still talk about our stay at The Meadowpark. Siobhan and the team do a wonderful job and truly make you feel at home. Need something just ask and they were happy to help. The Castle Room is absolutely luxurious and we were quite happy to stay in. The little touches tea cakes, beer in the fridge and the Scotch Tablet disappeared quickly! The breakfast basket was the perfect way to start the day as we gazed over the fields at Stirling Castle. We had dinner and it was excellent too! A memorable stay and we can't recommend it enough! The only issue we wished we had stayed 1 more night...Next time!"

"The clue is in the title, this is place that delivers on several fronts. Whether you're looking for brunch, lunch or dinner The Coast is a fantastic choice. Join them at any time during the day and your tastebuds will be delighted by the dishes available. Not that you have to eat. The bar space is a great place to stop for refreshment at any point during the day. The bar staff know how to serve a cracking cocktail too! The bar and dining room has a warm, chilled out vibe think bare bricks and wooden floors even when it's buzzy busy. A visit is made all the more enjoyable by super friendly front of house staff and a manager who knows how to keep customers coming back for more! It's a top spot in Cowes and not to be missed!"

"It has been a while since I last dined at The Dolphin and I have previously enjoyed it. The new floor was slippery and wet, which was a bit concerning. The food was average; my wife and I had the leg of lamb which was well cooked and tasty, but the accompanying pea risotto was not great. The most disappointing aspect was the lack of consideration for disabled customers. The back door, which is usually easier for those with mobility issues, was locked. The front entrance had a couple of steps, making it difficult to navigate. I would suggest installing a slope somewhere to improve accessibility. Additionally, improving the path to the upper car park would instill confidence for those at risk of tripping on uneven ground."
