"I booked this for a reunion and despite receiving confirmation of the booking the hotel called and asked for a credit card to secure the booking I find this unreasonable as it doesn't state this anywhere, also it was completely unnecessary as there were only two other people in the restaurant when we arrived so they are clearly not overbooked! On arrival they joined together tables for us and we were told that there was no high chair. We ordered food and drink with neither arriving for 10 mins or so, when it did arrive it was just the water minus a glass. I ordered freshly squeezed orange juice which tasted as if it was mixed with concentrate, it certainly wasn't like any freshly squeezed orange juice I have had before and I have had a lot! The orange juice and tea took another 5 mins to arrive. The food took an absolute age and despite us all eagerly chatting we all noticed the length delay. When the food arrived it was lukewarm and very mediocre. I ordered poached eggs and brown toast and I received 2 eggs and a slice of barely cooked white bread on a plate equivalent to a tea plate in size whereas the other food was on normal sized dinner plates. I was then brought some barely toasted brown bread that looked as though it was from a basic/savers range. The Eggs Benedict looked good but was also cold and rather tasteless. The light version of eggs royale was only ok. The french toast with fruit was brilliant however, it was a generous portion, the right temperature and tasted lovely. Our party was very relaxed but none of us were impressed by the service and most of us were unimpressed with the food. We also thought it was strange that there was an almost wall sized TV showing sport..."
