"Having been invited to a Ruby Wedding party in the Chartwell Room I took a look at Donnington Manor Hotel's website and was very impressed by photos of stylish gardens, a sumptuous and historic dining-room, and delicious-looking food. The guests (38 of us) had been asked to choose three courses from a menu provided in advance, and I chose home-made chicken liver pate with red onion jam and sourdough bread; roasted sirloin of beef served with roast potato, seasonal vegetables, Yorkshire pudding and red wine jus, and for pudding apple tarte tatin with vanilla ice-cream. I'm sorry to say that the food was a considerable disappointment: The pate had no discernible flavour so the blob of red onion jam was most welcome, but aside from (delicious-looking) bread rolls served in a basket I don't recall having any sourdough bread. The beef was overcooked and so tough I couldn't cut it, and managed only the softest bits of the two slices (in fairness, my brother, who was seated at another table, enjoyed his beef). Two halves of a small roast potato were hidden under the beef as were some small pieces of boiled carrot and French bean. The red wine jus had all the hallmarks of instant gravy from a jar (glutinous, and with unidentifiable dots in it), and had been poured over everything on the plate. The Yorkshire puddings looked marvellous, but I gave mine to a fellow guest so can't comment on that. The apple tarte tatin was *delicious*!! Sadly it was only about four spoonsful, and the modest scoop of vanilla ice-cream, equally delicious, was almost completely melted by the time I received it. I think there were only three waiters; it's not a surprise that there were long delays in service. The reason I didn't comment on these shortcomings in the food was that I was sitting next to the host, my cousin, and he and his wife chose Donnington Manor because that's where they held their wedding reception, forty years previously."

"I ate here a afternoon last month, while I stayed in london on the novotel on canary wharf. I had seen this place that was introduced on a TV program. it looked like to be in a very interesting environment and I like this style. of space. as I said that I was on canary wharf and it was actually a very simple trip with two busses to just a few hundred meters from the entrance to the trinity buoy wharf where the diner is located. this whole area is another where there is a large amount of development with the construction of apartment blocks. the wharf himself has seen the development with several units that are now working as small companies. the other feature worth mentioning is the excellent view from the wharf of the o2 arena opposite and the huge cloud scratches of canary wharf in the middle distance. so diner itself and it is really a great place to eat. I don't know if it's an original or a reconstruction, but it's an American diner of 60 years that they see in films and photos of this epoche. the menu is quite extensive and is naturally centered around the ubiquitous burger, but there are many other possibilities, including salads for the healthy food! there are also breakfast options. a burger was just good for me and I chose one with cheese and speck along with the usual other circumcisions and fillings. a very large part of the delicious pommes accompanied it. to complete the true American style, I had a beautiful milkshake with it. the food came in good time and it was a pleasure to eat while the look at the view. they can even see the cable car ride that passes very close over the themses. I finished with a beautiful cappuccino and the whole bill I thought was very reasonable. I can highly recommend this place if they like this style of restaurant and I really hope to go back a day."
