"The staff was excellent, and the wine and whiskey were quite good. However, the food was just average. I started with the pigeon; the menu mentioned breast and wing, so I expected one of each, but I received four wings that were tough and had so little meat that they wouldn’t have satisfied a pigeon, especially for £14. On the plus side, the black pudding was enjoyable. The main courses were alright, but nothing worth raving about."

"We had a reservation at 10/1030pm which we attended. However one of the guests left around 1130 and paid the bill on her exit however when the rest of us left we were given the bill to pay. My sister paid £107 when she left which was the entire bill. The remaining 3 guests including myself were issued with another bill which was split two ways £46.53 each we paid this bill should not have come as after paying the £107 there was nothing ordered to the table. There seems to be an error. We were not given an itemised bill we were just told the amount of the second bill and we decided to split two ways between two of us guests, as at this point we were not aware our sister who left earlier had paid the entire bill. No member of staff informed us of this either but they would have been fully aware this was paid and no further drinks were ordered to our table. We need a refund to be issued. Absolutely disappointed that staff still took payment for god knows what instead of telling us the bill had been paid."

"Harrods is a must do experience if you are visiting London. It is an awesome shop to look around and its huge. It’s window displays change frequently and are spectacular. It will take a few hours to have a proper look around but even looking around the ground floor you can browse a huge range of designer high-end handbags, jewellery, make-up and at the back of the shop the amazing food hall. Even if you have no intention of buying you will be pleased you visited. Upstairs the furniture areas are spectacular, and the shop is full of small cafes and bars to take a rest stop. You won’t find any bargains here and certainly you will probably pay a small amount extra for the same item v elsewhere but Harrods is about the spectacular shopping and browsing experience. This visit I only visited on this visit was the ground floor (as per photos) but I love all the floors here and often stop near the toy department at the frozen yogurt counter for a chill (and that place is nearly always fairly quiet and you can get a seat)."

"The dining experience was excellent, set in a beautiful environment, and surprisingly affordable. It might be a bit too quiet for those looking for a lively atmosphere, but we really enjoyed the restaurant and our meal. It's a shame that there weren't more diners, but that was the only downside!"

"fantastic experience. I am pleased to share with you all my fantastic experience in the westcliff seafront. Today we are ready to enjoy a beautiful cocktail and so, we choose aurum restaurant terrace, we had visited it before a long time so why not try again. and yes, but they serve still wonderful cocktails with a fantastic service delivered! After we had greeted, we felt very comfortable and pleasant to be there, so we decided to try the food again and yes, it is quite expensive, but it is worth having the experience. excellent selection of quality drinks; vodka. rum. coffee available. it is ideal to enjoy a great chill out afternoon cocktails on the terrace or evening in the beautiful lounge bar. or if you want to enjoy an elegant dinner in your restaurant, this pleasant time can bring. refresh the touch with comfortable sitting and softer and beautiful lightness. the waitress is professional and participates with a beautiful smile. spotless clean yes, I would like to recommend it aurum restaurant!"

"So So disapointed. Only booked a few weeks ago and chose this on the basis of what cocktails were available for a bottomless brunch. Got there and they had changed the choices..to ones we did not like. The said it would have been on an email but the email I received the day before had none of this info. If it had, we would have cancelled as can have prosecco brunch locally!. Finally the manager agreed for us to have another choice but that was after were were going to walk. Service was always polite but so so slow. Had to call someone over more times than not and it wasnt even busy.The food was lovely I have to say but the other MASSIVE complaint was there was no live DJ as advertised, No vibe just piped music..why was it advertised as a kitchen disco brunch. Very very disappointed and DO NOT recommend."

"Upon arrival, we found ample parking and a beautifully set table by the window with stunning views. Starters were served promptly, with high praise for the quality and quantity of the dishes. The mains, including the Three Lakes Burger, were delicious and satisfying. The vegans, vegetarians, and gluten-free members of our group were equally impressed with their meals. Desserts were a delightful end to the meal, with the option to take leftovers home in provided doggy boxes. The attentive staff checked in throughout the meal, offering great service and a friendly atmosphere. Afterward, we enjoyed drinks on the outdoor veranda, soaking in the lovely weather and views. Overall, our 4 1/2-hour meal was relaxed and enjoyable, thanks to the excellent service from Alex, Kerry, Jemma, and Charly. Many in our party, who had not been to the restaurant before, were pleasantly surprised by the hidden gem. Everyone agreed to return for future visits. The entire staff was helpful, friendly, and polite, making my son's birthday celebration truly unforgettable. Thank you to all at The Three Lakes for a fantastic experience."

"I made a reservation for our first Valentine's Day dinner at this restaurant. When we arrived at the hotel, I was pleasantly surprised by the nice decor and well-dressed staff. We checked in at the restaurant at 8:15pm and were seated at our table. We waited for 35 minutes before a waiter came to take our drink order. After receiving our drinks, we ordered our food, which consisted of 3 starters, a main course to share (but was the size of a child's meal), and a dessert that was meant to be shared but was very small. We received our first starter, then the third, before our main course arrived. When I asked about our second starter, the waiter apologized and brought it out 20 minutes later. We then had to wait another 25 minutes for our dessert, leaving us very hungry. Despite being told the set menu was £40 per person with a glass of wine, we had requested soft drinks instead and were told it would not affect the price. However, when the bill came, it totaled £110.37. I had only brought £80, so my partner had to cover the rest. After attempting to sort out the issue the next day, I was frustrated by the lack of response from the manager and the unprofessional communication via text from his personal phone. Overall, I was very dissatisfied with the experience and would not recommend this restaurant to anyone."

"I went for a business lunch, and although I wouldn't say it was a bad experience, I would be hard pressed to say it was an excellent one the portion sizes were a little hit and miss (very large side orders, but the starters felt a little small), and the service was not top notch. Being an Italian restaurant, I would have expected the waitress to know what a Negroni was, but that aside, things like the water not being left on the table and them forgetting to bring sides with the main course and needing to be reminded let the service down. It was not overly busy on the day we went, so there is room for improvement. There was nothing wrong with the food when it did arrive. Still, we didn't order anything out of the ordinary and having been to a few Italian restaurants recently, Bella Cosa, unfortunately, didn't figure high up on the places visited, which is a shame. Maybe it was an off day but overall as I say, although not a bad experience I couldn't say it was a great one."

"Booked business lunch through open table, expecting a decent service. Is there any? NO. First I have been asked to provide a code, what code? I am having normal lunch on normal menu, I never need a code! Apparently a waitress thought I booked through group on! I was embarrassed in front of my clients. It is not a cheap skate! Seated right underneath a noisy TV in a corner, and there isn't many guests around. what do I supposed to do with my discussion? And it took half an hour for me To have my orange juice! Did you go to supermarket and my juices? There is barely any service and why do I need to pay service charge? When I raised my hand for anyone to notice, for few minutes nobody cared! I don't believe this is what's happening, and for this experience and the just normal average food they are serving, I hope my fellow customers just waved byebye to this place. Birmingham have so much to offer and 1565 is a place you won't need to remember."

"I arrived and told the receptionist that I have a reservation and he told me to go upstairs to another restaurant without checking anything or my booking. Then I went back there and he was with an awful face, looks like he didn’t want to be there. The pizza was very good but the other dishes like beef carpaccio and swordfish carpaccio with 3 slices of beef/fish and a lot of leaves…don’t worth it. They served a beer disgusting with a lot of dirty on the glass, we asked to change it 2 times. That is a shame because the place is very near my house, and the menu look’s great. But the service is terrible."

"Good overall though not sure the score will reflect. Food was good, well seasoned and portioned service was good but got slower as the meal day worn on (we were perhaps the last of the lunch time eaters) two adult main meals, two kids meals, 3 soft drinks and 1 large glass of wine, 2 deserts and 2 coffees. I’d expect to pay around 60 maybe 70. Bill including service came to nearer 90 needless to say that’s quite a lot for a small family outing at least more than I’d anticipated. Ah well for around the 50/60 mark they get a repeat customer, a little too expensive for what it was, nice but pricey."

"Probably one of the best English breakfast the capital has to offer. The quality of ingredients, skill of the cook and the presentation are at its best here. Served in a relaxing atmosphere, even the decor of this place is fun and comfortable. Well done. OK I'm posting again on the 15/08/17 because I've just eaten possibly the best marinated chicken burger you can get. Absolutely delicious. Served up with fantastic onion rings and fries. The service here is also top notch. Be warned this place gets busy."

"During my trip to Edinburgh, we made a reservation at this restaurant with a nice view from our window seat, despite the bad weather outside. The atmosphere was relaxed with only a few tables occupied. For starters, we ordered the clam chowder which was full of delicious ingredients, creamy, and served with crunchy sourdough bread. My mother had the mushroom and tarragon soup from the specials menu, which warmed us up on a cold autumn day. Our main course was mussels, which was enjoyable but could have been a larger portion for the price. The fish and chips were crispy and of premium quality, although we felt it could have used some mushy peas or garnish. Some of the chips seemed like scraps from the bottom of the fryer and lacked substance. We also tried the lemon posset from the specials, which was delightful and smelled amazing. The service was friendly and attentive, with my allergies taken into consideration. Overall, we enjoyed our lunch and would love to visit again in the future."

"eating was great and good value. service was not good. we have a menu at 1046. we waited for the server and had to call him at last. order and then he brought another menu that said it was after 11 o'clock and we had to use the other menu that had more expensive prices. we explained that we had waited for him to come so that we could order, and we expect him to be bigger in the price design of the menu we had. he wouldn't do it, always said it was because it was after 11 o'clock. at this time it was 1110 or so. it was just a pain in the back and so not necessary. That was for three drinks we asked. maybe $8. only no good service. she had to keep calling for more water and so on."

"Service was poor when we went for lunch, staff didn’t know what was or wasn’t available, despite not being busy you had to work to get their attention, a small plate got forgotten which they then wanted to bring out after we would have finished and were surprised when we requested it should be cancelled and yet they still added 12.5 tip to the bill which my husband unfortunately paid as it was just auto pilot. Highlighted at the time that we would have taken if off to which the staff member just said he would pass on. Breakfast was a bit better, some staff you could see were really good at their job, yet others were again as slow as day before and avoided any eye contact. Shane as hotel is lovely"

"The food was nice but portions were small and prices were high very high for the size of the portions we got. And several items on the menu weren't available which was a shame. There are a lot of different deals for different days which I found confusing. There didn't seem to be any deals on the day we went we were just given a menu with no mention of any deals. No ambience but that's probably because we were the only ones in there but we were eating between lunch and dinner time so that was probably why. I wouldn't go again unless we got a good deal too pricey for too little food."

"Took going to the front desk twice to get the tv fixed in the room. Initially they sent in housekeeping to try to fix it, then a gentleman around the front desk came in and reset the channels. Waited roughly 4-5 hours. Beds are a little hard, but I am used to memory foam, so may be good for people used to a conventional mattress. Shower is amazingly hot and perfect with a shower head that actually has pressure. Breakfast is great, lots of choices, and very good orange juice. Overall, perfect location for us and easy to get to from London via coach. Rooms: Little small, but efficient for needs. Walkability: Easy to get to from coach, restaurant/pub nearby, and convenient mart in walking distance. Food drinks: Room service available, breakfast with juices and coffee."
