"This restaurant should really be called The Cash Cow at the Airport . Given a fairly constant throughput of captive diners you 're unlikely to go anywhere else to eat if you 've decided to stay), the management obviously feels safe in jacking prices through the roof £4.50 for bread and butter, even if it 's chilli butter, is absurd; and £19.50 for a pretty indifferent bacon cheeseburger is off the charts) and not bothering to update the decor, which feels 70s but is probably mid-90s. The OpenTable booking did not actually make it through to the restaurant, but luckily they could accommodate us. Service was pleasant and helpful, to be fair, although only one individual appeared to be allowed to seat people and take payment, which meant long-ish waits to do troublesome things like pay."

Why do you add service charge to the bill without asking?!! Its already too expensive.

Very decent restaurant at an airport hotel. Not expensive as I would imagine. Food was ok.

A good all round meal at a reasonable price for an airport hotel. Good online site for booking.

Food barely average, prices well above average, airport trade gives a captive audience, unfortunately

We had a very relaxing dinner the night before our flight. Raqu, our Waiter, was thoughtful, attentive and friendly. The food was excellent, and we enjoyed the starter and mains. No room for dessert.

Ridiculously overpriced and food was inedible! Very disappointing experience and would never return. Waste of money and for that price would have expected an awful lot more. Our party left very angry at having to pay so much for something many couldn't even eat!

Service was very good , starters and my salmon I had for my main course was very nice but unfortunately my husband ordered the gammon steak which was more or less inedible mostly fat and so tough he couldn’t cut it with an ordinary knife and struggled with a steak knife! We should have sent it back straight away but he decided to persevere. We were offered a free desert as compensation but still disappointing.
