"We took the kids for Sunday lunch and definitely wouldn’t go again!! This place is nothing like it used to be. Firstly we had a fairly abrupt and rude man taking our orders… the table they placed us on was nowhere near big enough so we had absolutely no space. When our starters arrived they basically had to strip the table of everything just to fit the plates on, I really never understood why these generic chain restaurants think two adults and two kids can fit round these tiny tables. I had “the much loved” calzone, it looked good but when I stuck my fork in it , it deflated and it was very measly, I think there was probably about 3 bits of pepperoni in it. My daughter had the Stromboli pizza which was nice. My wife had the seafood linguine which was average at best. My youngest had chicken goujons with roast potatoes which was cooked with zero love or seasoning. The worst part was when I asked for the bill. When the waiter came over with the card machine he had set it to a 15% tip and was very pressing in me accepting this. He showed me I could reduce this if I wanted to be fair but this is not a good way to do business.. I really felt if I was an elderly couple or a vulnerable person I would of pressed accept without really knowing what I was doing. Tips are optional ask!! Don’t pressure people into it. I’m known to be a generous tipper but when the service is not good I don’t give anything. We certainly wouldn’t go back. It’s a shame because 15 years ago this restaurant was lovely"
