"dreadful, very horny waitress. eat more pretentious, over price, tasted ‘ok’, but really nothing special. my chicken capital did not come with veg or kartoffel, so they have to buy the separately at £4, which if they arrive are enough for 2 people. a real waste of food and so stupid, not included with the main dish. no great place if they want a romantic or quiet table for 2. very loud. the bad layout and no idea of sitting things, meant that we stuck between 2 big groups of people, a side with a woman who swarms all the time. not funny. probably okay if they're on work night or a big birthday party. but it felt very hastened and they did not have a front side of the house to check everything is ok, or if they needed something. our waitress has done her best, but it took ages to get the bill as we could not signal anyone, and forget to need something or more drinks. we were handed over a menu when we set ourselves, but had to wait 10 minutes to ask for a wine menu. everything in all it felt like a transport belt system, nothing friendly or personal, very hurried, loud and badly managed. we are happy to get out of there and drink a drink somewhere else. they also have to sit in their moms, as nowhere to hang them and the toilets are not signed, so had to guess and ask for directions in the main hotel next door. the lighting and decorations were beautiful, but this is about the best I can say about it. will not come back soon."

"Disappointing. We have had many nice meals here so was looking forward to our evening back here. First thing we were waiting mins for water and drinks which we had asked for twice. Second thing was our starters had arrived … the table next to ours had already sent back their calamari starter as it wasn’t cooked enough. Our calamari arrived and we asked if it could be cooked a little more so off it went never to return. My daughters starter had also arrived but as she ordered something different after mins of waiting for ours to arrive she tucked into hers. Eventually managed to track down a waitress to ask where our calamari was it turned up in takeaway boxes. Off it goes again … another mins I had to again try and grab a waitresses attention to ask where our starter was. By this point we’ve been at our table nearly an hour and a half. I said enough was enough as there was no sign of our food arriving and if we could have the bill minus the service charge. The manageress came over as she had been told we weren’t happy and in fairness could not apologise enough. I did explain things would have been better if their staff were more focused on customer service and just keeping customers informed as to what was going on etc as it was so obvious how long we were sitting there without food .. or drinks ! They did not charge us for our bottle of wine or the one starter we had. Overall I think they were having a bad night as we were hearing other tables complaining and as we were walking out the door another customer was asking for the Manager. I hope they get back to how they were as it’s a lovely place to go."

"The photograph on Trip Advisor’s website of The Lamb’s cheeseburger French fries is entirely accurate but also entirely nauseating – a meat patty buried within a sloppy mess of stuff (see photo on this website) which, other than the cheese, we neither expected nor...requested. When trying to hold the bun and take a bite of it, the beef patty slithered out from its gunge onto the plate. Granted, there was a knife fork but what's the point of a cheeseburger if you can't grip the bun and bite into it? (Thinks: I wish I’d read Trip Advisor’s reviews on The Lamb in advance rather than afterwards. I would have just ordered a packet of crisps) On a positive note, we didn't throw up. Certainly we couldn't face eating again that evening we ended up sharing a tin of soup and a packet of crisps. The outdoor terrace was a pleasant spot for a lunchtime snack. The bill was (two cheeseburgers French fries at each plus for wine and fizzy water). Thinking positive, we saved money that evening by feeling too queasy to have more than a mug of soup and some crisps. Almost forgot: the French fries were excellent; what’s the betting they weren’t bought in?! The waitress service was pleasant. About two thirds of these “slopburger” were left on our respective plates. The waitress didn’t comment as they took away the plates. Fair enough- what could she possibly say? “I don’t blame you!” ? Next day I rang the manager or someone in charge to explain my disappointment, taking a gentle exploratory approach. To no avail. He insisted it was “a proper cheeseburger”. So maybe it’s me. Or maybe there’s a fine line between confidence and arrogance. Try it and see."
