"If I could score 0 I would. I booked a table using the website service for 11am. Luckily we arrived early to sit outside for a coffee at 10:30 we told the server we had a table booked which he acknowledged. After serving our drinks he came back and said if you want food the kitchen closes at 11 so you need to order now. He then argued with me that I wouldn’t have been able to book a table via any app at all even though I had email proof. We moved inside and waited 20 mins for home to come back and take our orders. He forgot drinks and got some of our orders wrong as well. The saga continued with under cooked poached eggs which one server argued about with us. Saying chef says they are cooked. You don’t want poached you want hard boiled. No we wanted slightly longer cooked poached eggs that didn’t have slimy white in them. We also had egg shells in our omelette which put us off eating the rest of it. Pretty much all of the food arrived cold as well. All we wanted was a peaceful brunch and it turnt into a bit of a fiasco with really poor service and bad quality food. I choose this restaurant because it looked special but I would not recommend it after experiencing it and I will not be returning after being very disappointed as I had such high hopes for a lovely time. We were not rude but we’re treated like we were idiots for expecting a certain level of service that was sadly lacking."
