"A fantastic venue, with an excellent choice of menu items, all cooked to a high standard and full of flavour. We attended The Trooper, last night, for my father’s birthday. The venue is very well presented and immediately sets the right example of ambience for a social dining experience. We were shown to our table by Jaydon, who proceeded to take our drinks orders before returning to discuss food. Jaydon was extremely friendly, well presented and he knew the menu inside and out. Jaydon recommended the Crispy Beef Teriyaki starter for my father, which was out of this world. The sticky bbq pork belly and garlic creamed mushroom pot also went down well with the family. For mains, Jaydon had recommended the Wagyu fillet for my father, with sautéed greens, whilst myself and others chose the 8oz Fillet, the Mediterranean chicken skewer and the crispy chicken burger. The mains went down a treat and none of us were left disappointed. Portion sizes were excellent and the seasoning and taste of our chosen dish perfection. Once again, Jaydon checked on our table routinely, engaging in some back and forth humour with my father and learned that it was in fact his birthday. Before presenting us with our desserts, Jaydon arranged for a slate tile wishing my father a happy birthday. During this time the Venue Manager attended to check on how our experience had been, for which we were all full of praise not only for the cuisine, but for her staff. I would absolutely recommend you give the Trooper a go for your next outing. A fantastic experience that none of us will forget in a hurry."

"Some girl friends and I visited on Monday. We were welcomed to our table and promptly offered drinks. After pondering the menu and placing the order we were then told what we wanted wasn't available and had sold out. This would have been less frustrating if we'd been told what was out of stock before be bothered choosing. Unfortunately my friends first choice and second choice wasn't available. The same friend ordered a ciabatta and chips. It looked nice until the chips came out with a hair on them on closer inspection. My friend notified the waitress who although seemed pleasant didn't apologize. We had eaten our dinner and the replacement dish still hasn't arrived. We followed this up with the managed who found the new dish but again no apology from the waitress. My friends were from uni days and we hadn't seen each other for a while so wanted to make the most of our time and ordered a dessert. I ordered a mini brownie and tea. This was well below par in presentation. The size of the dessert wasn't the issue. It was served on what looked like a small saucer...I'd expect maybe a bit of icing dusting or a sprig of mint, but looked very bare..pic attached. It's a shame as I love the location of the pub and do usually enjoy visits its a shame this visit let them down."

"Just had my first chick n sours and it was absolutely perfect. Even tho it was cold on arrival (deliveroo fault) not the restaurant, everything tasted amazing. I had the beef dripping fries, K-pop burger and the watermelon salad. I could eat that watermelon salad all day long and I'm not the biggest fan of watermelon but it was amazing. The chicken in the burger was still super crispy and the coating had great flavour. Will definitely have to find a free day and go eat in at the restaurant because this was amazing cold. Thanks chick n sours"

Additionally, the overall atmosphere, even for a takeout order, was top-notch. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a delicious meal at an affordable price!"

"We visited on Easter Saturday for a joint birthday meal. 4 adults and my 10 month old. They had a lovely quiet table upstairs ready with a high chair (I had left a note on my booking that one of the 5 was a baby so was pleased to see they 'd read it! . The service was lovely and not intrusive. Food was delicious and very unique compared to other local restaurants. Stand out dishes were the chicken burger, delicious tacos and two of our party had the black pudding croquettes which they absolutely loved. Very different and well made. They don 't have a specific children 's menu but were happy to make a smaller portion of the mushroom risotto which my daughter absolutely loved (along with most of my chips and some of my mum 's soup! Genuinely a very enjoyable meal, nice to see this lovely pub has been restored to its former glory. Interested to visit again and see what else they have to offer. Also, the 'toppled flower pot ' dessert was absolutely incredible and I 'm not usually a dessert person. Very innovative and different, and not too rich after a big meal."

"Creamy garlic mushrooms were dry and lacked the flavour of garlic and no cream. Myself and my partner ordered chicken fajitas as our main course I had to take two condiment bowls back to the bar as they were all cracked and chipped and as a chef I am fully aware of HACCP and FOOD HYGIENE we were told that the sauces weren't fresh anyway. I informed the waiter that due to the ceramic bowls being damaged they collect a build up if bacteria which could potentially cause food poisoning again I was told that the sauces weren't fresh. After complaining myself and my partner were treated as if we had done something wrong. I think your staff are needing further training in the hospitality industry especially around FOOD HYGIENE and HACCP. A visit from an executive chef and environmental health my also be a good move. My partner also witnessed a member of your bar staff and one of your chefs wiping and picking their noses and not washing their hands. The bill of £55 was paid but grudgingly. Fair to say we won't be back."

"The food and place, I can 't complain, they where first rate, but what sucked the enjoyment out of our birthday breakfast experience was the manner in which I was spoken (no correction, shouted at). I committed the crime of removing the dirty glasses from our table to the end of the bar. Where I found sanitizer and a cloth, which I used to wipe our table down. I 've never been spoken to in the rude manner and belittled in front off the other customers before. I was too much in shock, as a lady of 68 years, to complain at the time. The young man (who looked in his twenties and young enough to be my grandson), I believe must have been in charge. I believe his outrageous behaviour was not warranted. I will never go back to this Weatherspoons again. I hope someone who reads this gets this message to him and I hope he is suitably ashamed of his manners."

"Myself and my partner have visited papas twice in the last week. I would say this is by far, the best place for breakfast in the area. Our first experience was good. Although girl serving us seemed inexperienced (possibly New) she was polite and well...presented and food was really nice. Around 4 days later we decided revisit. Second experience was exceptional. The girl serving, was attentive to our every need. The food again was lovely. Will certainly return soon."

"If you're looking for a tasty vegan junk food spot, Uwee is the place to go! They offer a variety of options such as Beyond Meat burgers, fried seitan burgers, loaded fries, sides like popcorn tofu and mac n cheese, and even churros for dessert. I visited with a friend and we shared the big Uvee burger, Cluckin' wafer fries, and mac n cheese. The burger was delicious - the Beyond Meat patty was a great start, and the toppings really made the flavors pop. The Cluckin' wafer fries were huge and tasty, and the mac n cheese was solid. Overall, Uwee offers fantastic vegan fast food options that are sure to satisfy any cravings."

"We received a warm, friendly, and enthusiastic welcome at the restaurant for myself, my friend, and her little dog Woody. From the beginning, we were informed about the limited menu, but there was no reason to complain. Although my meal wasn't listed, all the individual ingredients were available in other dishes, which was perfect because I'm following a weight management plan and wanted to stick to it. I was pleasantly surprised by the staff’s willingness to be flexible and accommodating—I've rarely seen such readiness in a pub or restaurant. In fact, the last time I experienced such service was at The Ritz in London! I’d rate Breeze Hill a perfect 10 out of 10. I just wish we had visited more often, but we definitely will be back!"

"I get so used to 'chain ' cafe 's on stations selling a similar range of plastic food and over large bland coffees, that I was really wowed by the Stottie Company. The food is fresh, good and tasty. They have a suitable range of food for those needing something between trains, but also do well if you have more time than you like and need to dawdle. Service is good and pleasant. In short gaps you don 't want to wait for food, and my sausage and egg sandwich only took about 5 minutes. Coffee was freshly brewed and good, and my muffin was very nice. Middlesbrough station wasn 't busy, so I hope they do enough business to keep going. I would certainly go there even if I weren 't catching a train."

"We visited on the 6th January for a child’s pizza party to celebrate our son’s 5th birthday and we were absolutely over the moon with the whole experience. We were greeted warmly on arrival and shown to the area which had been reserved for our party. Everything was laid out ready and looked fantastic. The party ran so smoothly from start to finish, and everyone had a fantastic time. The staff could not have been more friendly or helpful and went above and beyond to make our son feel special. In the run up to the day Terri (the manager) was always on hand to answer any questions, she made the whole process so easy, and was extremely helpful. We would like to give huge thanks to Terri, Tracey and Dan for making this such a wonderful experience and would highly recommend the pizza parties to anyone considering this as an option for their child's birthday. Thank you all once again for such a great day. Ben, Heather and Cillian."

"Today, I visited this lovely café with my daughter for lunch, and I highly recommend it! The staff was incredibly friendly, and the food was delicious. The menu offers an excellent variety; it would be hard for anyone not to find something they like, and we were truly impressed! I ordered the steak pie, which was beautifully prepared and topped with rich gravy. My daughter had the crispy chicken burger with chips, and she loved it—especially the tasty chips. The menu is fantastic, featuring everything from a full English breakfast to light bites, jacket potatoes with a brilliant range of fillings, toasties, sandwiches, pasta, and daily specials like scouse and fried flour. Everything was of excellent quality!"

"this was the first time here when I saw that it was recommended by locals in epping. after coming in the inner was very cozy and the atmosphere was really nice. we were on the inside through the window that was very breezy and the lighting was very nice. the menu has a selection of breakfast, burger, wraps, pasta, desserts, pages. (size) eating delicious and the presentation was perfect, it made me hungry to look at her. the portions are very generous and the quality of the plate was beautiful. I and my friends had ordered the following: crispy chicken burger, English breakfast and poppy breaky (French toast). as for the drinks was the order flat white groovy green smoothie, fresh orange juice. the only way was the service. it was a fight to tie every waitress here to order our food and then pay for the food again. I felt like they had many employees, but hardly a waitress. we had to go to the recipe to pay where we stood for a few minutes before we were recognized. minus the service I really enjoyed eating. we would definitely recommend and return. the quality of everything was really fresh. the orange was pressed fresh by a machine that was visible. the shop has been modernly decorated, but with a rustic feeling. the restaurant was neatly large and the place was full of customers who already had their food or just immersed for a coffee / tee break."

"We had another enjoyable family birthday meal at Bold Restaurant. There were 17 of us celebrating Tom's 24th birthday. The kitchen was busy, so there was a bit of a wait for our meals, but it was Easter Monday. Despite the wait, we all had a great time and enjoyed the delicious food. The staff, especially Wayne and Ged behind the bar, Jo who organized the room for us, and Izzy and Rosie who waited on our tables, worked incredibly hard. A big thanks to the kitchen staff for preparing such wonderful dishes. We will definitely be back soon."

"A lovely meal was had at the Shepards rest in Westhill. Me and a few friends live in the local area and this is definitely the best restaurant in the area. Our server Lauren was very helpful and an asset to the restaurant with her wonderful customer service. Me and my friends all had burgers and all of our specific’s were met with ease and the food was served in time. We all enjoyed our beers and gins that we ordered. Reasonably priced and the food quality was perfect if not better than expected for a local pub and grill. Been here many times before and have had a great experience each time. I tend to recommend this place to anyone that I meet that is visiting Westhill and there surrounding area. Keep up the good work."

"Thought we’d try it out as a friend recommended it a few weeks ago saying how amazing the food was. We went for lunch and it was atrocious to say the least. The front of house staff are lovely, I can’t fault them but the food is basic and most of it looks bought in rather than made in house. The restaurant is disgusting. The walls are covered in black marks and the furniture is all worn and stained and some of the chairs are damaged. Some walls have different paper while others are painted green. It’s quite clear that no attention has been payed to the aesthetic or appearance of this place. The outside of the building is gorgeous, lovely original beams, shapes and features but the inside doesn’t reflect this. Probably a nice enough place for a pint but not exactly a beautiful restaurant."
