"My self,my partner and a friend were here on Friday last for a get together and drinks. The management of this establishment is questionable to say the least! How can any decent manager or management team allow a member of their own staff to be lone working in such an environment? Whilst we were there a very inebriated man was harassing and intimidating the young woman working behind the bar.She had made her feelings clear to the guy and he still wasn't getting the message. Another couple of customers attempted to ask him to leave so the woman behind the bar could do her job.They managed to get him out of the door but the guy ended up coming back and behaving exactly the same. My partner tried to intervene when he was becoming aggressive towards the woman working behind the bar but then the guy turned on my partner as well. I asked if she wanted me to try and get him out and she was caught between a rock and a hard place as her management team were useless to say the least! Why oh why would you leave a woman on her own behind the bar?I could see that the premises had CCTV but how is that going to protect anyone in reality? I have visited this premises before back in and back then it was lively,vibrant, fresh and clean. Tonight we didn't feel safe in here. The drunken customer harassing the woman behind the bar, making her feel unsafe and uncomfortable, and the lack of security or management present was very off putting. For this reason we will never return to this establishment for all the reasons stated above. I for one will be warning everyone I know not to spend their hard earned cash here or their quality time with friends and family ,as it is obvious that they will not be respected as much or protected as Treacles drunken aggressive regulars. An employer who doesn't prioritise the safety and well being of their employees and customers doesn't deserve to be an employer."

"I took my son there for a steak. On arrival, we were asked if we had made a booking and this was checked up on their screen. As the majority of the tables were empty, I thought they would fill up. However, by the time we left, the majority of the tables were still empty; begging the question as to why reservations were such a big deal on arrival. My son ordered a 12oz fillet steak medium which was butterflied rather than grilled whole which we did not understand as it came from the tail end of the fillet rather than the butt or prime end. I ordered a 12 oz ribeye medium rare. Both steaks came cooked exactly to order. The fillet was reasonably tender but the ribeye had membrane that had not been removed and made it quite tough eating. In addition the ribeye had been marinaded in some form of sweet dark sauce which could be clearly tasted and which spoiled the overall taste of the ribeye steak. The accompanying pepper sauce was rather bland. The fries and sweet potatoes were reasonable, the grilled tomatoes over-cooked and the mushrooms were good. The English mustard requested was in front French and I heard an adjoining table have the same challenge. I do not believe that they had English mustard on that night, or perhaps at all. When the ribeye was pointed out to the waitress, the response was a quite blase Oh really, well I 'll be sure to tell the chef . Apart from that, the service was acceptable to good. The malbec ordered was a little rough but quite good. We ordered tap water which came in spring-top bottles; a rather nice touch. Would I go there again? Possibly for a burger but not if I want a good steak."

"Myself and my partner visited in May for his birthday celebrations. Due to having children, we don’t manage to get out an awful lot, so after hearing some good things about Homewood, I decided to book it for his birthday meal. When I made the booking, I did pop a note on there to say it was a special occasion and we were really looking forward to it. When we arrived, we walked into the main entrance and approached the main reception area. No one was there, many members of staff just walked past us without even acknowledging us (I get people are busy but just a quick “I’ll be with you in a min!” Would have been great) we had a look around and couldn’t see anyone, there was someone serving on the bar in the room next to us but the bar was busy and we got no acknowledgement from them either. 15 minutes later, a lady came out and was quite abrupt, asking us what we were there for, we explained and then she lead us to a table in what I would say was the worst spot in the restaurant. There was an air con machine behind us blasting directly onto us and we were both freezing! We mentioned it 3 times to 3 different members of staff and they did eventually turn it down. The food was ok at a push, we were kept waiting a long time before they took our order and the food then took a very long while to come out. Drinks were forgotten and it was just not the experience we were hoping for. We had planned to do 3 courses but ended up doing 2 and then paying/leaving. Really quite disappointed with the service."
