"We have been to this restaurant on different occasions over many years and were booked in for Christmas Dinner, second sitting this year 2023. We have always been well looked after. Sadly this Christmas was a complete let down with a hugely disappointing, very expensive Christmas meal. We arrived as requested at 3.30pm and were taken to our table where cutlery and crockery were missing. Although the table was finally set we still had to request crackers during the meal and additional cutlery. While the starters were enjoyed we were not offered bread, although watched other tables being offered it. Our order of 5 turkey mains were varying in size, either just 2 to 4 sprouts , not ‘vegetables’ as advertised and just a few halves of small roasted new potatoes, rather thin slices of turkey, one cocktail chipolata. No sauces offered. The vanilla crème brûlée which was advertised as being served with a blood orange sorbet. It was infact served with strawberry ice cream and no notification by waiting staff that there was a change on the menu.The crème brûlée had no burnt sugar on it . The tables were packed tightly and to the point staff had difficulty in manoeuvring around everyone. I really felt for the young staff who were trying their best. When booking we had asked if they wanted us to pre book our meals, but said it wasn’t needed . Most probably the manager had not thought through correct quantities required for Christmas Day, and the result was a very poor offering. Sadly our patronage will now not be supporting this local business."
