"We went to the restaurant for lunch to commemorate the anniversary of my father-in-law's passing two years ago. The restaurant was very busy, which is always a good sign, so we were happy that we had made a reservation in advance, especially during half term. However, the noise level was a bit high, making it difficult to hear our own conversation at times. We were seated at a nice table by the fire, which made the atmosphere cozy as we waited for our food. The menu was extensive and diverse, just like our previous visit for my mother-in-law's birthday. She ordered the seabass again and was not disappointed. Despite the generous portion size, she opted for a smaller dessert and complimentary hot drink, which added the perfect finishing touch to a memorable dining experience for her."

"Wow! Think they may have a new chef since we last came in 2022 but absolutely sensational food… we popped in for lunch then came back for dinner it was so delicious and also amazing value?? They have a three “small plates” for £25 but the plates are a full meal! Small it’s not part of them the quality of the meat and the flavour of the dishes are fabulous. The menu is also massive and it Dosent need to be because it’s all so delicious "

"Primitivo Bar Eatery in Birmingham’s Colmore Business District celebrate their Anniversary this week. Coincidentally, its also me and my wife's Anniversary this week. So where better to enjoy lunch in the sun. The weather was incredible, a pavement table was available and...Rishi Sunak was footing of the bill up to a maximum of per person. If there was a fruit machine in the bar, it would be the equivalent of scoring three big ticks followed by an endless waterfall of coins. Primitivo reopened two weeks ago with a full array of safety precautions; foot operated sanitizers, protective screens, a one way system and a food menu allowing reduced numbers of staff in the kitchen. There’s even single visitor loos on hand so no more taking your friend with you. There’s even a new South American beer, Modelo for those who want to avoid the C word. I opted for Sparkling Water, with temperatures north of degrees centigrade, it went down like Champagne. I was in a Glasgow Wetherspoons last week and ordered Haddock and Chips. I’m not saying it was intimidating but even the fish ran out. Back in Brum, Primitivo are thankfully more on the ball with stock levels. Despite half a century and at least hours of unwrapping fish and chips, I can’t claim to be an expert but this was, as my daughter would say, ‘fire.’ For readers above the age of the Haddock and Chips; beer battered haddock, hand cut chips, mushy peas and tart sauce is a very good thing. Anji chose the Thai Fishcake; delicately spiced with chilli and lime, fresh spring onion salad and sweet chilli dressing with a side of Fries (V) She kindly offered me some and it was awesome. The kitchen boasts local gastronomic heritage, Chef Murray is non other than local legend Paul Fulford’s son. It’s like going to Guitar Guitar on Hagley Road and buying a Fender from Eric Clapton’s kid. Both meals, a side and soft drinks allowed us to take full advantage of Rishi’s Eat Out to Help Out cap of per person. Eat Out to Help Out runs until the end of August. It’s good to see Government use Nudge Economics to encourage those who can, venture out and support the hospitality industry. VAT has also been temporarily reduced from to We learned this morning we are officially in recession. Supporting local independent businesses is the fast track to get our region back into the fast lane. The money spent in venues such as Primitivo fund the wages of it’s staff and are reinvested locally. Thank you to all the team for a fabulous experience. Congratulations Prit on your Anniversary."

"The restaurant is conveniently located in the McArthur Glen Designer Outlet and has attentive, friendly staff. The food is decent, though a bit overpriced for what you get - think TGI Fridays but more expensive with smaller portions. Annoyingly, they tack on a 10% 'optional' service charge regardless of party size. I was surprised to find this additional charge of £9 buried in the middle of the bill, making it difficult to spot at first glance. By the time I noticed, it was too late as I had already paid. I suspect they rely on customers not noticing or feeling too awkward to question it. I believe this practice of adding hidden charges without clear consent should be illegal. I will not be returning to this restaurant to be taken advantage of again. Once bitten, twice shy."

"Centrally located and easy to find the small cafe was a delight. It's in the non busy side street which makes it more like a relaxed place to enjoy your breakfast. The cafe was modestly designed and has a home like feeling. Small space well utilized. If You are lucky you might get the comfort corner in the Edinburgh Larder near the window. Again the staff was friendly and it felt like home talking to them. (I must admit staff everywhere we went in Edinburgh was friendly shopping malls, restaurants, cafe's, hotel). We ordered sausage roll in brown bread with fresh juice and cappuccino. Our order was simple and had no complex culinary skill's to do, it was as I expected. Service was quick and it didn't take me long to devour the whole thing. Price which I feel is the most important thing was right up my street. Inexpensive breakfast good ambiance good rating I do recommend this cafe. Plus, I'd recommend you to be more adventurous with your breakfast and go for a full Scottish breakkie."

"Excellent food, unfortunately very loud background music which significantly disrupted our conversation at the table and despite asking, was only slightly lowered. Additionally, predominantly only English was spoken, which is familiar to us, but in a restaurant in Germany at this price point, we would expect something different."

"A Great British Pub but not a Great British Meal for 2 of us in a party of 4. To be fair the pub overall is nice and the beer good. But I was bitterly disappointed by the Fish and Chips. Advertised as small or large portions for £13.95 and £17.95 respectively the former should have been on the child’s menu it was so pathetically small. I rarely write negative reviews but this sort of offering gives Pub food a bad name. And to be honest the quality was only so so and in no way compensated for the price size. Other dishes on the menu have similar size options so just beware when you order. I was offered another choice to make up for it but once you’ve started and everyone has their meals I never like to ‘start again’."

"On first impressions, lovely place in the village, lovely rooms, very clean, comfy bed, the room I was in, lovely decor, this was booked by my workplace we thought breakfast was included within the price they paid, in the morning of leaving we ordered a full English breakfast which was £11.50, we also had a pot of tea, fresh orange juice toast, when we came to check out, my bill was £17.50, I have never stayed anywhere where I've had to pay extra for a cup of tea, it's normally included within your breakfast price, so please don't be fooled by these extra prices for a pot of tea, fresh orange juice toast, also no cereal available, which is unusual for an establishment not too offer, so this is the reason why I haven't given it 5 star rating, as I thought this was quite disappointing in my opinion, otherwise not a bad hotel, this was a work trip, I can't comment for the menu as we ate elsewhere on the evening, but I just wanted others to know before they maybe ordered the above items. Just giving my honest opinion of my overall stay."

"I am a local so I have eaten in this cafe before.I will however not be returning! Whilst the food is always satisfactory you first have to run the gauntlet of rude,stroppy and miserable staff.My friend and I are over sixty both retired professionals not that it matters but we are not used to being barked at and very embarrassed.I don’t think I will be visiting again,time for a boycott.They need to remember that if they have no customers they have no business."

"Initially seemed promising as bar staff were friendly and we were accommodated on a busy Sunday without a booking. Menu was limited, as was to be expected on a Sunday, but there were a couple of items unavailable, making it even more limited. We found this out after we 'd ordered said items. My partner and I ordered the 'sundried tomato linguine ', it was very basic and very bitter. There was little to no seasoning or herbs, it genuinely tasted like a tin of tomatoes had been mixed with some linguine. The 'garlic bread ' it came with was just baked bread with butter and a sprinkle of dried parsley, it had no garlic flavour at all. My partner ate his, as his sense of taste is limited, I didn 't eat mine. Staff did offer to make something else, but as I didn 't want Sunday lunch, it wasn 't really an option. Thankfully I was refunded as it was £12 and not at all worth it. Our friends ordered Sunday lunch and were very happy with their food, so if that 's what you 're after then you should be OK. Unfortunately as staff were clearing the table, one of them dropped a dirty spoon onto my friends shirt and its now stained with red cabbage. He was offered some wet tissue to get it off but I think the initial sarcastic reaction of 'oh are you going to bill me for that now? ' put him off accepting any help with it. We did see another customer having to return a dessert that was inedible, so it would seem there are a few issues in the kitchen."

"We have been today as a party of 7 for afternoon tea. The food and presentation was delightful. Very well priced and good value and the setting is nice and airy and clean. My only criticisms are the young staff, they could benefit with a bit of customer service training. Although the afternoon tea comes with unlimited tea/coffee, not once did anyone ask us if we needed anything, we had to repeatedly ask for a coffee refill and often met with blank stares. (Rabbits in headlights come to mind). The other issue was the vegetarian afternoon tea contained a tuna fish sandwich. When we did manage to attract a waitresses attention and she went to check with the Chef. she then came back to tell us the chef thought Tuna fish was vegetarian (again maybe some training on vegetarianism for the chef may be needed). They did however replace the whole plate with the correct veggie options and very kindly removed it from the bill. On a whole a lovely afternoon just a bit more staff training to earn those 5 stars."

"We had an amazing breakfast experience at Aldwark Weapons thanks to Jim and his team. After a recommendation, we contacted Jim to ensure a great time and he did not disappoint. The presentation of the food was excellent, all homemade and delicious. The traditional breakfast was full of flavor and beautifully presented. Jim's experience shone through in the dessert table he prepared for us. The staff were professional and delivered high-quality service throughout the day. We highly recommend Jim and Aldwark Weapons for any outdoor event. Thank you to everyone involved for a wonderful experience."

"Visited today Thursday 7/10/21 went in through the left had door where two barstaff were sat at the bar, went through to the other side of the pub to be served none of them came through until a Chef walked through and went and brought...one of them to serve us, sat with our drinks perusing the menu, my Wife went to the bar to order food, both our first choice meals were unavailable, my second choice was also unavailable so we chose again. The meal my wife chose was ok, I chose Chilli beef, my meal came with Rice on a sizzling bed of onions and peppers with a Poppadum, when it arrived I straight away put the poppadum aside as it was dripping in brown fat (looks like it was deep fried in old oil), the onions were par cooked as was the peppers, the beef chilli was so chewy I could hardly eat it. When the waitress came to clear the table she asked was everything ok for you I said no it wasn't actually and explained why, she said Im sorry I will tell the kitchen Then the supervisor came to clear the rest of our plates etc, saying nothing, we waited a while but no one else came so we left, as we went out we passed two barstaff a waitress and the supervisor, they couldn't even be bothered to say thank you Needless to say I wont be bothering visiting again"

"My brother and I came to the New Inn for a dinner. We were greeted by a very friendly service manager, and that basically set the theme for that evening with the service manager, bar attendant and food server all being very friendly and polite. The food servings were very well priced and had large portions. I was very impressed and while I have only a short time left in the UK I will certainly be returning and would recommend them to friends and travelers alike. The business has a lot of share platters so if you are the romantic type and like to share a large platter for dinner and even desert then you wont be disappointed."

"We came To the royal as a family of three in the school holidays. All of us had an absolutely delicious meal. The loaded steak burger is outstanding. We ordered a sundae to hare as a pudding and all I can say is wow. All three of us dug in and it was still plenty. They have really got everything just right. The lady serving us could not have been friendlier or more helpful. Can’t wait to return"

"I visited this restaurant during my holiday, and I must say, the service was truly first-class. The location is fantastic, too. I had one of the best Cullen Skink dishes I have ever tasted. The staff were attentive, polite, and prompt with their service. The cakes are absolutely amazing—I will definitely be back!"

"Terrible experience. The restaurant claimed to offer gluten-free options, but when I asked about the safety of their food, they said nothing was really safe and that bits could drop into the fryer. They initially said I could have a vegan burger with chips and a bun, but then backtracked and said the chips weren't safe due to possible contamination. When I questioned the menu inconsistency, the staff said it was probably a typo, which was not reassuring. When I inquired about a gluten-free bun, I was met with exasperation. Overall, we decided to leave without eating and won't be returning to this establishment."

"We stopped for ice cream for our 4 year old after an amazing visit to Durdle Door What a MISTAKE, the old woman at the ice cream counter which faces the street was inexcusably racist. She clearly had an attitude problem in itself as she didn 't really bother to serve the white family in front of us pleasantly more a series of grunts but at least she acknowledged them and served them. We approached the counter and she began shaking furiously and gave us some of the dirtiest looks, she then just looked away as if to dismiss us, not even What can I get you or what would you like? NOTHING. In my shock I said clearly you don 't want to serve us so we won 't be wasting our money here but on reflection I 'm furious. In this day and age there is no reason for hating someone and being rude to someone based on the colour of their skin. I then had to explain to my innocent and kind child why we had to walk away from the ice cream shop without his ice cream. This treatment and behaviour was disgusting and this woman should not work in a tourist industry if she is so unwelcoming of all people. Luckily for us the lady in the ice cream kiosk across the way was so kind and served us politely and with warm words and a smile. Shame on you. Ruined an otherwise perfect day in the area, wouldn 't recommend the ice cream or the attached restaurant saltwater grill or whatever it 's called. AVOID AVOID AVOID Stamp out hate and racism by hitting vulgar nasty people where it hurts the most their business!! don 't stand for it EVER."
