"Very clean, spacious room with comfy bed, all the facilities we’d needed. We went there for one of my friend’s 40th I mentioned that after the booking and asked if possible to get a lake view room. They put a kind birthday note aswell in the room on our arrival which was very sweet. The staff from the staff at the bar&restaurant to the reception) was exceptional, kind and polite, went above and beyond the expectations to make us feel comfortable, any minor issues was resolved very professionally and on the spot. We had an extremely pleasant stay here and I will definitely go back with my partner for a spa weekend aswell we didn’t have time for the treatment with my friend this time) all in all was a great stay"

"We booked a table at The Willow for a birthday celebration and it didn 't disappoint. We were initially intrigued by the restaurant 's website and the range of food it offered and we were curious to see if it lived up to its promise. On arrival we were greeted and taken to our table all the tables were beautifully set out and the lighting was soft and ambient. Each table had a lily in a little vase and coupled with the shining glass and silverware and the unobtrusive music in the background, the impression was very positive and welcoming. Excellent first impressions! I ordered brill in a black squid ink batter, pea shoots and sweet potato fries and my wife, a vegan, ordered a Rainbow Salad and Falafel burger with sourdough bun and sweet potato fries. Both meals were of a very high quality: the fish was expertly cooked, fresh and delicious and the batter was remarkable and delectable. It was a revelation to us both to try sweet potato fries a first. They were delicious and very moreish and we will definitely be having them again. My wife was very taken with the Rainbow Salad and asked to see the ingredients for future reference. The Manager willingly showed us the restaurant book where we were able to see colour photos of all the dishes and their ingredients and any allergens and dietary information. For dessert my wife had a B Raw raspberry cheesecake (made with coconut) and on finding out that it was her birthday, the chef wrote 'Happy Birthday ' in dark chocolate sauce across the plate a really lovely touch! I had Almond and Chocolate Dome with raspberry ice cream: delicious too. All in all we had a wonderful, relaxed and enjoyable meal at The Willow. We will definitely be returning to sample more of the dishes on their extensive menu. There is something for everybody at The Willow: meat eaters, fish eaters, vegetarians and vegans are amply catered for and their philosophy of food is encouraging and to be recommended. Thank you very much!"

"Went for breakfast and despite 3 members of staff and only the ground floor open did not get served or even acknowledged by the staff. One guy seemed to prefer to stir a hot chocolate for 5 minutes rather than make eye contact. Eventually gave up and left wit still no acknowledgement. Not the first time this has happened so will never go again"

"Just had a take away ordered for 8 and collected spot on time. Should have realised when restaurant was totally empty and no staff there,in addition food was there boxed and ready. Good you may say however it was lukewarm and I had the feeling it had been awaiting my arrival for a while. The sea bass was overcooked by a mile and my trio was not as expected but that may be just me? The best thing as my wife ever the practical one,said the boxes were great and we can use them at home!"

"Friday Lunch between meetings..looked good from the window of grilled vegetables and platters. Once in it all fell down from there. Appauling service..four waiters all chatting..quiche was non plussed by salad was literally lettuce and tomatoes plonked on a plate then wine came after food...and the bread never came. I have walked past here many times and thought I would give it a try. Big mistake wish frnkly I had gone to Benugo next door. Or Gregg's quite frankly. S I wrote the waiters are still chatting and totally absorbed in their gossip.."

"I have just returned from a two night stay at this hotel which was enjoyable. The staff were particularly friendly and helpful. Our room was on the second floor and looked out onto the extensive grounds. I made a mistake by not enquiring as to whether the hotel had a lift as my sister-in-law had walking difficulties. However, she managed. Our meal arrangement was breakfast and dinner in the evening to include nibbles and two courses from the menu. If we required a further course, this was an extra. We had a delightful Vietnamese waitress on our first evening by the name of Le. She was absolutely charming. She informed us that this weekend the hotel had an Indian Wedding taking place and that an elephant would be arriving for the ceremony. We were sorry we couldn 't witness the proceedings. One thing I would like to mention is that the hotel is on an incline and when exiting, it is very difficult to see the traffic approaching and a mirror on the opposite side of the road would be helpful."

"Having been raised at the knees of Caribbean and African women, sometimes I’m just in need of some soul food. I’ve often gone past Mullins and seen that it is busy, and looks bright, clean, warm and friendly. And it is. The decor works really well. Low-key, warm and welcoming. Music is a soothing stream of lilting Caribbean classics. The waiting staff are lovely. So friendly. And the menu looks great. There isn’t too much of it, and it is quite hard to choose because it all sounds amazing. Price points are really good. But. The food is genuinely terrible. I went for a Creole fish stew. I don’t know how you can make a stew without flavour. When you are cooking things slowly and together, flavour infuses flavour. But not here. This was a good sized portion of piping hot well presented food. But my God it tasted awful. Basically chopped potato surrounded by small lumps of bland unidentifiable white fish, half a dozen mussels, some of which were still closed, and therefore inedible, and three flavourless prawns in shells. There was a pinch of Samphire on the top, and this was the sum total of the vegetables I could find. It came in what I can only describe as a thick red sauce. If there was tomato in it, there was no flavour to it. It was highly salty, and this was the dominant flavour throughout. The fish had no flavour of fish, and it was intensely spiced in a lip plumping way. Essentially, it was all heat and salt. With a slight tang of gents toilets. I suspect this was from the mussels. I did raise the blandness twice with the waiter, and the strange unpleasant toilet flavour. He said he would tell chef. And that was that. No feedback on the dreadful flavour other than that it was all fresh. I ate the entirety of the meal because I had travelled a long way and had not eaten. I saw it simply as fuel. It was not enjoyable. I paid and left. Mullins is so close to getting everything right, but a restaurant is its food. I’m not going back."

"This was without doubt the most disgusting meal I've ever had the displeasure to encounter. There were only 3 options one of which was veggie (my daughter said it was revolting) and two mains. None of us had the pork so can't comment on that but the beef brisket, despite being really tender, was completely tasteless, the roasties were soggy as were the yorkshire puddings. The spring greens were rubbery and the peas hard how can you get peas wrong? The only nice thing was the horseradish sauce which came out of a jar. I had one mouthful of each and paid and left in high dudgeon. We went because the internet said it was the best sunday lunch in Cambridge. Obviously this was not true. Shame really as the staff were lovely. Also their weekday menu has a lot of variety and was really tasty. I can only assume the good reviews were written by people with no tastebuds. Needless to say I will not be eating there again"

"Not a vegan not a vegetarian and no allergies. To be honest on arrival the menu scared me to death not really being sure what everything was. I orderred and as i saw food coming out looking stunning. My dish did not disappoint either, looking very healthy and ooozing flavour. Great welcome and engaging staff. Watching the chef work was great to the care and concentration was obvious. If you happen to be in Godshill and fancy treating yourself, just plump for anything on the menu. It will be georgeous and tasty. Over the moon i gave it a try!!!"
"On first glance this looked promising as the menu was clearly marked with gf, and items came out with flags for allergies. However, by the end of the meal I was starting to feel ill and in the night I was running to the bathroom which spoilt the next day as well. We were a large party and some of my colleagues ended up with mixed up orders so there was obviously something wrong that night. Perhaps it is better if you are a small group but beware!"

"5 Stars??? Yes I do feel generous sometimes, unlike the teachers in high school who never wanted to shell out that extra half a mark for a spelling mistake. Let 's get back to Manhattan Grill and analyse (food reviewing is very serious business I tell ya! how and why they deserve full marks. I am more of a West London girl and I like the Victorian and Georgian buildings but the walk to Manhattan Grill, especially the pretty bridge you have to cross from Canary Wharf to reach your destination (Manhattan Grill is extremely romantic (that is the best word I could use, I promise . The external ambience of any restaurant does add to its charm. Oh did I mention that this steak house is a part of Mariott, these guys are ace when it comes to such things! I made a reservation before going and I was extremely delighted to see that the manager remembered my name without having to look at one of those black diaries. The service was a bit slow initially (it took them a while to get us water which we requested for but the overall service made up for that little jolt. I was generous to take a friend of mine along with me (nothing is worse than eating alone, I promise to try this place (did I mention that I won a voucher from this lovely site? Woohoo Zomato! and we decided to go for cocktails instead of wine, think we both had enough of wine over the weekend. While I was trying to carefully pick a cocktail from the menu and looking rather confused, the manager suggested that we had to the bar where an extremely experienced bar genius will talk us through all of them. We made our way to a very old fashioned (in a nice way looking bar called the G&T bar and as the name suggests they specialise in Gin. The bar genius, Sam made us try some lovely Gin from around the world Saffron infused Gin, Spice route Gin and a very London Gin. All of them had their own distinctive tastes I am not a neat spirit kind of girl but even I loved all of them especially the silk route or spice route gin (yeah yeah make those lame curry jokes, go on because I could taste the cinnamon, cardamom and other gorgeous spices. He made me a cocktail with that gin and added some more exciting things to it which included rosemary, chocolate and orange liquor BLISS. Before entering the restaurant I was starving but all this Gin excitement made me forget my hunger but by the time my cocktail was ready the waiter came and said : 'Madam your Steak is ready ' Perfect Timing! I went for the rib eye steak with creamy mash and red wine sauce keep it simple! My steak was perfectly cooked medium well (just the way I like and it was MASSIVE! A person with my appetite can never finish one of those, and needless to say I didn 't either! After being rather satisfied with my steak and cocktail, we ordered for a Manhattan Raspberry Cheesecake It was again simple but delicious. Perfect sweetness, I don 't like my cheesecakes to be extremely sugary and a generous crust nom nom nom. And... I am running out of stars! Verdict : Stunning location, Great service, Knowledgeable bar genius with a great moustache, Beautiful,well done meat and yummy desserts That m 'dear is a perfect dinner! I shall rest my case here. You can read more details on my blog."

"We had a pleasant evening for six of us in a lovely setting with a nice atmosphere. However, the food seemed a bit overpriced. For example, the scallop starter was £16 for just one scallop, and the trout portion was similarly small. The main courses were cooked exceptionally well, particularly the beef Wellington, which four of us ordered. However, the portions of vegetables on our plates were minimal. We also ordered extra sides, including crispy rosemary potatoes, but they were so crispy that they were nearly inedible, and there was no trace of rosemary. Looking back, given the amount we spent, the overall experience was somewhat disappointing. Unfortunately, we likely won't be returning."

"This was a special occasion for us and the location and ambience was really good. After tea and biscuits we had the full afternoon tea service which was really pleasant and service was good. A good touch was a free extra with a Happy birthday plate containing a further small cake and strawberries. A memorable occasion which we would repeat at a future time and really recommend. A slight improvement would be to give good instructions for finding the exact restaurant location within Latimer House from the car park."

"We have visited this pub a few times as a meeting point with friends. It has been okay in the past, but our recent experience was very disappointing. Upon arrival, we were told to wait at the reception desk, but no one attended to us. Eventually, a staff member rudely called us up to the bar and pointed out our table (rather than escorting us there). The service was slow and inefficient, making us feel like a burden. Staff members were seen chatting at the bar, paying little attention to the customers. Our wine was brought to us late, only halfway through our meal after repeated reminders. Dessert also took 35 minutes to arrive after we had requested it multiple times. The curry that my husband and I ordered was bland and featured undercooked chicken. Overall, it was an extremely disappointing experience."

"he waited for about ten minutes at the door, showed us a table and gave us no food or drinks menus, so we had to go and ask us. no one came or took our order, so then they had to ask for order. we asked three different employees to hunt our drinks as they lasted so long and until this point we had waited 50 minutes. none of the employees we asked came back the drinks, so we had to ask ourselves, and instead of getting our drinks, the bar staff served foot in the customers. when we finally got our drinks, the order was not even correct, so it had to waste more time to sort it out. a table of 7 came in and sat next to us after we had already been there 30mins, but they got their drinks and eat before us, as from any reason the staff took their order first. some tables next to us had the same terrible experience with waiting time and bad organization. the place is a shame lip, no organization, management bad and terrible service. do not recommend anyone and will not return."

"We visited The Wheelhouse early one morning and were pleased to find that it was open before most other cafes in the area. We felt very welcome and enjoyed a delicious breakfast with tea served in a pot. We regret not having enough room to try their tempting cakes and scones. If you're in Minehead, make sure to stop by The Wheelhouse for a satisfying break. You won't be disappointed."
