"Really beautiful room, nicely decorated and very clean. Staff were friendly and helpful and it was a great price. Only couple of downsides were no onsite parking, however there is a pay and display very close where 24 hour parking was about £5 and also a residential road where we parked for free. There is also no breakfast in the pub. We were recommended the cafe across the road so there is an option for food if wanted. Would 100% stay again."

"Delicious food, well cooked, piping hot,and great choice. Our server, Carol, was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive.. Carver Archie was super quick at loading plates with roast of choice, and Yorkshire pudding. A good atmosphere rounded off our Sunday lunch perfectly"

"The food was excellent, but we probably won't return until we hear that the service has improved. Our table was reserved for 7:15, but we waited an hour before we could place our order, and then another hour before our food arrived. To be fair, a few people in our group were 15 minutes late, and we apologized since we know that can cause issues for the staff. However, we would have appreciated some acknowledgment or apology for the delay. By the time the dessert menu arrived, it felt too late for us to order dessert, which was disappointing because we all agreed that the food was outstanding."

"We booked a table for on a Saturday evening for three people, When we arrived the restaurant was pretty empty bar two tables upstairs. We were seated and left with menus for The very young waitress came and took our orders. Our drinks...were a pint, a orange squash and one cocktail. We waited for these and received nothing, our first bits of food arrived before our drinks. When the food arrived we had no cutlery and no plates so we asked for these, the attitude on the server was as though we had asked for his life. How dare we enter a restaurant and want cutlery and plates to eat off. We also asked for our drinks( remember that really difficult order we placed, beer , squash and a cocktail) Eventually our drinks turned up but still no plates or cutlery so the dishes that had arrived where slowly going cold on our table whilst we stared at them wishing we could eat them. When a different waiter passed by we asked him for plates and cutlery and within seconds he brought them along with our other dishes. The first dishes were cold by this time so we asked for them to be reheated. Again we were faced with attitude and rudeness by the server (Andrew i think he was called) How dare we ask for our food to be hot or at least warm enough to eat. Andrew offered to reheat the dishes and return, he never did. We ate the few dishes we were left with which were hot enough and then left, as we went downstairs to pay we were faced with a bill featuring several of the dishes we hadn't received and being charged full price for the ones we had and had had to return due to being cold. Andrew had told us we could have the bill half price due to the shocking service and attitude he showed and yet the bill did not reflect this. We eventually came to an agreement on the bill and left. ABSOLUTELY SHOCKING SERVICE. There was a table of who waited about just for drinks and then decided to leave, a couple behind us who hadn't even had a drinks order taken after an hour and a poor couple who were just about to sit when we left. We warned them not to bother, Unless they fancied a very long night. We will not be back and i warn anyone who does visit, take a book and maybe even your PJs and a change of clothes, your in for a long wait."

"This is a bit more than a gastroput to be fair.....I 've eaten here a few times and the lunch we had yesterday was a culinary feast! Pizza is always above par, the venison burger was amazing even the 'chips ' were really done a dis-service by calling them chipsl! Desert of dark chocolate with peanut and Morello cherries was really sublime... well worth the drive out of our way just to eat here!! Thank you! Price per person: £30–40 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5"

"Every year we go on holiday to the Peak District and our first meal out is always at The Shalimar. Everything about this restaurant is amazing, they have a real passion for the food they serve, always tasy dishes and generous portions. They are professional, friendly and the atmosphere inside the restaurant is cosy. We can't wait for our holiday next year so that we can come back! Food: 5"

"The Carvery was a little bit lukewarm. There was plenty of meat and the yorkshires were huge and crispy. Loads of veggies to choose from however the sprouts were cold and the gravy and other veg was lukewarm. Shame really otherwise we enjoyed it. My coffee was also lukewarm when I got it. We didn’t complain cos we were in a bit of a hurry."

"We visited for a large family lunch and it was just perfect. Superbly organised, great friendly service, great menu and lovely food. Would definitely recommend and would like to specifically draw attention to how well they managed a large booking with excellent suggestions. A great find and super location in a pretty village with easy access from major roads. THANK YOU for making a big day a success."

"Disappointing experience! Invited friends there who had not been before wanted them to like it, BUT ... On the menu was Cromer Crab on main menu at £13.95, but a special on the night at much less. Also chilli crab cakes as a special . The two ladies ordered the dressed crab salad. When servered, the crab meat was BLACK, smelled decidedly off and tasted foul! The new potatoes were cold. No self respecting chef would have served the dish in this condition! The waitress kindly offered to exchange the two crab dishes for some other dish, thereby delaying the whole meal for the four of us. We were told the cost of the two crab salads would be taken off our bill really! Admittedly, the replacement steak was good but my wife 's replacement fish and chips was poor. Again, the fish was not fresh and was undercooked no doubt in haste! The chips were cold and tasted stale (as did mine with the Bull burger)! Our bill was approx £100 a significant amount for a disappointing eating experience. On the positive side, the place itself is lovely and the staff very helpful with good service. We suspect that the crab, and fish, had been in stock for some while and was being off loaded as specials , the chilli in the crab cake there to mask the off taste. This is dangerous practice with crab in particular. The problem is probably in the kitchen and needs addressing urgently."

"We went here on a deal night, which seems to be Sunday-Thursday. It seems a bit expensive otherwise. Deal is 2 courses for £16, 3 for £19 which is pretty good for what it is. Some of the meals also have £5 supplements which seem OK for what they are, but not great. For starter I had scallops and venison chorizo £5 supplement). Was pretty decent. The quality of ingredient is high. But it was pretty plain. For main I had ham, mash and kale. While all bits were brilliant, the meal missed a sauce to make it a complete meal. Again pretty plain. Pudding was great. Can't remember exactly what it was. But both puddings we had were great. I wouldn't massively recommend this place. But the food was nice enough. I wouldn't be happy paying full price though, deal was the only reason why it was worth going to. But even then I'm not sure I'd rush back again. Other places seem a lot better for the same price"

"Have visited Toby Carvery Streetly and many other Toby Carverys before but this must have been the most disappointing. We were told a computer glitch meant that neither our vouchers or credit cards could not be used for payment, so it was a good job we had enough money to pay in cash. Seemed odd as we were given a properly printed bill at the end of the meal , so the tills were obviously working OK. My salad was disappointing. The dressing came in such a big bowl it was enough for any number of salads. Asked if I could have some salad cream or mayonnaise instead, which I prefer, but was told they didn't have any. Other problems included no water jugs, run out, no chocolate flakes for our ice creams, also run out, and half filled cups of coffee. The tea I ordered came in a large teapot but with a single teabag, so the tea was more like coloured water, no matter how much I stirred it. When we asked for the coffees to be topped up, they were, but almost reluctantly with no word of apology. How can you run out of water jugs when the restaurant was so quiet and run out of chocolate flakes at the beginning of the week, on a Monday? Presumably running out of coffee as well. It will be a long time before we visit again."

"Having visited the White Hart a few times over the past couple years and having an amazing time every single day we assumed today would be no different. So i called the restaurant and asked the lady on the phone if they had a table free in the restaurant and received a blunt no. Right okay. So I asked. Do you have to book? Then she sighed on the phone to me and said no but were busy so good luck. After this horrific phone call we decided the best thing to do was pop in as surely this wasn’t the same white hart we were used to. We entered and we were immediately greeted by a young male and female who both said hi to us upon entry and they both guided us to the menus and a table inside. These two members of staff are the only reason i’m not giving 1 star as i couldn’t fault them in anyway whatsoever. Upon arrival and until we left they both had a smile on their faces and greeted us constantly. This put our minds at ease a little. We ordered a couple of sandwiches and they weren’t bad but they weren’t anything special either. But we did only have sandwiches and for £7 you get what you pay for it was definitely not bad food. However the person from the phone call made an appearance again. I recognised her voice immediately as she came over to the table with our food and quite literally placed it half an inch above the table and dropped. She wasn’t interested in asking if we needed any cutlery or even if our order was correct. So again saved by her colleagues the other waitress (who I discovered to be called Katie) fetched my partner some tartar sauce and some cutlery and napkins for the table and even had a chat with us about our days. A drastic improvement to the other member of staff. So TLDR: The white hart is still alive and kicking however they’re being dragged down by their own staff who don’t care about the business."

"Absolutely dreadful experience. The serving spoon was burning hot under veg lights as veg was at the rear. Got terrible burn. It has given me a large blister. But worse is the attitude of the staff! When I was in distress asking for ice no one cared! It took 5 minutes of skin burning before somrone brought me a bucket of cold water. By now the damage had been done. Where was my apology? Where was the manager? Where was the legally required Accident book? Where was the First Aider? No one took my details. All I got was looks from ignorant staff . Only after half an hour did one girl approach with a burn plaster gel. If this had been more serious I dread to think of the consequences! This is absolutely despicable from a Toby!"

Will definitely come again it was a delicious meal out for the family"

"Fantastic service, as usual, lovely friendly staff. I miss some of the old favourites from the menu, eg calamari, fish and chips, triple cooked chips, but understand why the menu has been altered. We will be back, one of our favourite locations for lunch."

"Reserved a table, had the confirmation email but when I arrived there was no reservation for me. That's the 2nd time in the last 3 bookings that has happened at Toby. Luckily there was a table available but it probably annoyed the 30 or so people waiting. I went at peak-time on a bank holiday which wasn't the best idea. In general the food was ok but they always struggle to get their potatoes cooked nicely."
"The people of Campsea Ash are lucky to have a local pub like The Duck! Excellent place for Sunday lunch. Roast Beef served rare, with a great selection of vegetables and Yorkshire pudding. Mixed meat roast and nut roast available. Traditional desserts, including brioche bread and butter pudding, rice pudding, and crumble. Good espresso! Dog friendly as well. Price per person: £20–30"

"We went for breakfast on Sunday 1st October, arrived there approx 10.00am. When we got there the only food available was bacon (which I do not eat) and eggs which had been there for quite sometime as they were 'hard ' , there was no bread to make toast. There was no vegetarian option openly available. I did ask and received 2 vegetarian sausages. The chef on duty that day was rude and had attitude when I asked him if there was any bread to make toast, he stormed into the kitchen and stormed back out again with 2 loaves of bread. When we asked if there was any more food, the chef was very rude. Food came out but in dribs and drabs, and majority of it was taken by a couple who came equipped with their 'tupperware ' and took the whole lot and left nothing for the other customers. Basically all I had to eat was 2 eggs, 2 vegetarian sausages and two slices of toast, my husband had the same but normal sausages which we ended up paying £17.99 for."
