"We called to confirm our reservation and they had moved it from 1.30pm to 1pm without telling us. We had to rush there. The food was ok but the gravy was like water and the veg is served in hot water and rock hard. The waitress was hovering round our table asking if we was finished yet when it was clear we wasn’t. The normal carvery is 10.95 but that was up to 16.95 for mother’s day. You didn’t get anything for that they had just put a fiver on the charge. The kids menu had gone up from 5.95 to 9.95 and that was just for carvery they didn’t get a drink or afters they are all extra. A kids dessert was 4.95 for JELLY AND ICE CREAM. The waitress hovered so much that we finished without coffee and paid up and was charged 10% service. We just felt rushed all lunch and the server at the TIL said they had made a muck up with the bookings. We definitely won’t be back as 120 quid for 3 adults and 3 kids for a mediocre carvery which is no better than a Toby and only soft drink is too much and to then be rushed on mother’s day it just spoiled it for my mum."

Pretty good all round. The service for drinks etc. could be better, but overall, a very decent carvery at a very reasonable price. Loved the round tables. The outside seating area could be tidier.

We visited yesterday veg was swimming in water hardly cooked. What looked like a type of cheese sauce was burnt and bubbling. We left my 2 year old has been so sick since my partner also was sick later in the night and today i havent stopped being sick absolutely disgusting.

Our friends recommended Blake's to us, and while the BBQ was decent, I hear that the carvery is amazing. We plan to come back soon as it's being relaunched this month. The staff was very professional and friendly, and they were willing to go above and beyond for us. It's the perfect spot for a large group gathering, with plenty of space outside for the kids to play. View menu

A return visit for Mother's Day this year and our 3rd visit to Blakes. A welcome drink and flowers on the table are a nice touch. Beautiful atmosphere, always made to feel very welcome and attentive staff. The food is always great, hot, plentiful and great variety so great value for money. The best carvery I've been to in fact. Looking forward to our next visit this Sunday.

Sunday Lunch treat, price £11.95, where do I start. Lovely setting, clean and air-con. Waitress very good. Meat was very well done, veg was sitting in water and not a strainer spoon in sight. Roast spuds looked amazing, but very soft skin, no crunch to them, like they had been microwaved. Gravy like water. It made a Toby look great value and taste. I felt disappointed and wouldn't rush back.

The starter prawn cocktail delicious, the dessert profiteroles and apple berry crumble wonderful . The waitresses and staff and ambience great. The carvery food rubbish. Beef so hard couldn't cut it pork and turkey overlooked. Broccoli swimming in water nearly raw, swede was grey, something resembling spinach in a sauce completely tasteless, cauliflower and roast pots were best bit of that meal. Such a shame since the restaurant and sussoundings is just beautiful. You need a proper chef then you will see so many more diners! View menu

Sunday carvery 14/04/2019 unusually for carveries nowadays it was not overcrowded, therefore no rush. Just a blissful relaxing Sunday dinner. To the point, the welcome was warm, friendly and the staff were very well attentive, the carvery was clean and well presented, with a pleasant helpful chef, the meats offered were ALL good, even the grandchildren said how nice it was, for me the beef was excellent, moist tender and melt in the mouth with a good selection of veg on offer. A nice selection of desserts to choose from including gluten free options which our daughter was able to enjoy her fav golden treacle pud!

We have been patrons of Blake's Carvery for several years now and have always been pleased with our meals. We were excited to visit again after enjoying a barbecue there during the summer. However, we were disappointed to find that the quality had decreased significantly. Despite raising their prices by £3.00 per person, they have cut back on a number of menu items such as carrots, broccoli, swede, spinach, and sausages, leaving only a few peas and beans. This was very disappointing and we will not be returning with friends and family in the near future. It's a shame to see such a decline in what was once a great dining experience.
