"We heard good things about this restaurant so thought we would give it a try. Our table was for 4pm and when we arrived it was absolutely carnage. The staff seemed very overwhelmed and didn’t have a clue what was going on and our table wasn’t ready. The queue was outside the door. Finally once we was seated around 4.20 we ordered our drinks. 1 coke and 1 Guinness which took half hour to come out. When we went to order our food we was told they had stopped doing starters. This was not mentioned to us as we arrived. So we was disappointed by this. So we went straight to ordering our mains. I must say the main dishes was delicious but when it come to ordering dessert they said to us they are no longer serving desserts either. This totally ruined our meal and if this was mentioned to us as we was being seated we would have just gone straight back home. I understand working in a restaurant on an occasion like Mother’s Day must be very busy and stressful but you would know from how many bookings you have taken to know how much food you should order in for a busy day like Mother’s Day. We was really looking forward to trying Minel for the first time as we heard good things but after this experience we will not be returning."

I visited here for a Christmas meal, it was a large party, I think about 30 of us. There was a set menu for £30, I'm vegan but there was no vegan desert option. I didn't mind this too much and ordered a soup and...

we had 2 waitresses for our table but both could not provide drinks when requested all throughout the meal. had to ask 3 times for my drinks which didn't arrive so had to go to the bar and order it myself. you know when you need a drink after and during eating? well i had to wait for 30 mins at this point which is not normal. when we ordered drinks they didn't write it down so they immediately forgot the order and carried on serving another table. MINEL MEZE need more staff with either pens and paper or ipad.

Good food. Liver was perfect. Liver is not everyone 's choice but I love it and it was beautifully cooked. Monkfish was just delightful. Nice wine, bread was hot and fresh, Tiramisu was so-so. Iskender Kebab described as 'chunks of lamb ' but anyone who 's been to Turkey knows that this dish is a SLICED lamb dish, grilled horizontally rather than the traditional, vertical Doner Kebab and it served with melted butter. A bit of an error there... Also, £130 for lunch for two is quite pricey. Could do better. Young waiter was very polite and friendly. Older guy was not. He didn 't seem happy to be there. Also not Turkish.

Booked for four on a Saturday evening and glad we had as there were two private parties booked in the two separate dining areas which did slow the service in the main restaurant area. We were also seated under one of the speakers for the music system and despite asking for it to be turned down we could hardly hear ourselves speak the whole evening. Unfortunately, this did make the evening less enjoyable than it could have been. However, the menu is quite extensive and varied and we all agreed the quality, standard of the food was all excellent and it was all very tasty. Would I return, probably, but I would ensure there were no private parties that night.

The Kings Arms has been rebranded as Minel. It’s a Mediterranean restaurant, rather than a pub now, but it’s well worth a visit. The food is amazing! We had the liver and the spiced sausage to start. Amazing flavour and really good combinations on the plate. For mains we had steak and the chargrilled king prawns. All really well cooked and masses of flavour. The steak was really tender and the prawns were really tasty. To finish we had the chocolate fudge cake, which was a generous portion and baklava. The baklava was really good. And the cocktails…a huge choice, and the ones we had were delicious. The staff were all friendly and couldn’t do enough. Really great dining experience. Well worth...

Tonight’s visit to the Kings Arm for a celebratory meal was a terrible disappointment. We were a large mixed group of 14 individuals family and friends. We were seated in an annexed room to the side of the pub, which had single glazing and was absolutely freezing. Many of us kept our coats on. The service was slow, starters and main courses turned up at random times and one of the chicken starters was served undercooked (raw inside). The service from the staff was sloppy and inconsiderate. The head of our party tried to discuss the poor service at the end of the meal with the manager, who reacted in a passive aggressive and rude manner. The managers exact words to our host were “you must suf...

"So disappointingBefore coming to the swan I had looked at the menu online, as my youngest child has allergies and is dairy free. It states on the menu that ‘light bites’ are GF and most can be adapted to be DF, brilliant! It was our last day of our holiday and I thought I’d treat them to a nice lunch out before heading home. Where do I start, the service attitude from the lady behind the bar was shocking. I asked what could be made DF for my son and was told that there wasn’t anything and they don’t cater for allergies?! I pointed out on the menu that they state they can and was met with an eye roll basically. Anyway, I thought I would get him some chips, nope, they fry them in the same oil as the dairy and meat products we are vegetarian ! I then asked about the VEGAN dishes they had and I was told they are also cooked and prepared for alongside the meat products so they can’t guarantee they will actually be vegan!! By this point my daughters had already got excited about eating out and the play area that I couldn’t really back track, so I went against my better judgement and ordered 3 sandwiches on granary bread and a childrens fish chips. My son had a packet of crisps. The sandwiches arrived and were absolutely awful, the cheese and onion one was 2 slices of cheap shop bought bread with some pre grated cheese and a couple of slices of onion not even any butter! It wasn’t cheap, £45 for 4 soft drinks, 3 sandwiches and a child meal. Then there’s the play area, sharp screws poking up through the wood chip, lose sharp fixings on top of the slide, and a massive electric open cable under the swings! We swiftly left, it was such a bad end to our holiday and should have been our final hurrah before driving home. Was appalled at their attitude towards me, was treated like an inconvenience, food was awful, please don’t eat there if you are Vegan, although the dish is vegan ? they certainly don’t take the steps necessary to keep it away from meat, and definitely not safe for anyone with an allergy. Such a shame as the location is so pretty with the river opposite, we were excited and left feeling really disappointed. Will not be back."
