"After reviewing the menus to make sure they could accommodate the fact I cannot have dairy and gluten. They have a fair large GF menu which i was pleased about! I made them aware of my intolerances when we got there (and at the booking ordered the new potatoes (dairy free and the chicken, bacon and avocado salad minus the parmesan (fairly standard and all the other restaurants would find that an easy change! A few minutes later I get presented a vegan menu and told I cannot have anything on the gluten free menu I must have vegan. I questioned the burger to see if it was GF to be told the bun would be, I said normally a lot of vegan burgers have gluten in but this one would be OK? To then be told why not have the warm harissa baked squash salad with cider mustard leeks, spinach, rocket, pomegranate salsa, lemon garlic tahini dressing, tamari toasted seeds. After feeling a bit in shock I just agreed because I felt pressured into making a decision (although she was very nice and did try! The potatoes came and I got a grand total of 4 small potatoes with no garlic in sight, the salad though was pitiful, a handful of spinach, 4 thin slices of butternut squash, next to no dressing, no salad, no toasted seeds and it was cold! When the waitress came back I did said I was disappointed I came to have meat and never been told I couldn't and that I have to have a vegan meal because everything is pre-made and that the meal it's self was not that great and I was going to be very hungry afterwards. She said that she is sorry but everything is pre-made and that's that (she was nicer about it unfortunately we had plans afterwards so couldn't stop off somewhere to get anything else to eat I we aren't from the area so didn't know of any takeaways safe to use later in the evening. So 4.30am waking up starving really isn't great. Hugely disappointed that they can only accommodate you if you are gluten free but if you are dairy free you must eat from the vegan menu (I don't have an issue with vegan meals but it's not what I wanted! And it being nearly £70 out of our pocket for a meal for 2 that left you hungry. Never again."
