"The menu at this restaurant is quite adventurous with dishes like skordalia mash and chocolate soil. While everything looked appealing, I ended up choosing the pea and ham pie which had more pastry than filling and was a bit too salty with too many flavors going on. I would have preferred a simpler dish. My friend had the small fish and chips which looked great and everyone enjoyed their meals, especially the desserts. It was nice to see a local beer, NVB's Release the Chimp, on tap. The service was good and I would consider returning, but I would choose my meal more carefully next time."

"A busy busy pub in Baston. Hadnt been for years. When we arrived having booked prior we were met by the landlord. No welcome, no smile a very surly 'yes '. I explained we had a booking he went behind the counter sent a waitress who smiled (hurray) and asked how she could help. So a repeat! The landlord then showed us to a benched table a bit crowded sadly next to another. Our drinks arrived perfect! Food ordered but a limited Sun lunch set of mains. Roast beef, a salad and Pollock. Main beef included greens, roast pots, carrots, parsnip, Yorkshire. Other veg were payable extra. Pollock had greens and crushed new pots. I asked if I could have xtra veg instead of new pots and the landlord hesitated saying ' well extra greens then. ' I said some carrots maybe. His reply frankly astounded me. 'The carrots are counted to go with the beef. I will ask chef. ' Later he returned to say 'Ive managed to get you carrots but they are roasted '. No problem for me. We had a starter very very tasty food but small portions at £7 to £9. Main beef at £17 my husband said the beef was tender pink and delicious. But Yorks and pots quite dry as had been kept warm. Understandably to a degree. My pollocck was cooked perfectly, flaky and soft, carrots some burning, greens in a bowl not nearly hot enough. We didnt have dessert as we noticed how tiny the portions were. The pub was heaving a tenth anniversary, disco outside etc. Every table bar one taken. The only time the landlord smiled was when we paid our bill. The service from the staff was perfect, attentive and caring. Will we go again? Sadly no. The front of house needs much attention to being welcoming, flexible and showing customer care. We understand costs are raging, attention must be given to costings but not at the expense of a welcome and some flexibility."

Whistlestop Inn

"On Sunday, November 26th, we had made a reservation at Cosy Club in the town center of Stamford. However, after spending over an hour struggling to navigate through congested roads and the limited parking options in Stamford, we had no choice but to give up. I called The Whistle Stop expecting them to be fully booked, but they were able to accommodate our group of 4 adults and 3 children. They greeted us warmly and provided attentive service throughout our meal. We all enjoyed delicious and affordable hot dishes, making our overall experience a positive one, especially after the stress of parking in Stamford. For vegetarians, there were options available on the menu, and the same goes for those with dietary restrictions. As for families with children, we found the restaurant to be kid-friendly as kids could enjoy a complimentary roast dinner on Sundays when an adult purchases an adult roast dinner."

Waterside Garden Centre

"Was very disappointed to see that Waterside has adopted a cashless policy. When only purchasing items of low value, we like many people, prefer to pay cash. And what happens when the internet goes down and the machines don't work? Do they just close completely and send everyone away? Also, not very well laid out for disabled people or those having to use walking aids. Had to move items out of the way so my elderly mum could get around with her walker. Toilets were a considerable way from the entrance and given the location of the garden centre, I imagine this is often the first thing visitors need on arrival as the majority would arrive by car. Prices generally were not competitive with our local garden centres and we left after only 45 minutes because we considered the garden centre to be overpriced and my elderly Mum was getting fed up with having to walk a long distance around the outside and inside areas because they insist that the most accessible door, which saves a considerable walk, must only be used by staff! Not much thought given to disabled guests at all."

"We had been recommended this pub for a great Sunday lunch. It was very very busy at 2.30 when we arrived. Staff were flat out but polite. It was obvious they were struggling with overload. One young woman behind the bar looked frazzled. Menus were taken to our table at far end of the room. Next to a dying plant and a cracked window. The room was hot and stuffy but we couldn 't open windows as they were nailed or locked! We were told there would be a wait when orders were taken. We both ordered roast lamb at £17.00? I think. Drinks arrived promptly. We were called to queue for our carvery. The gentleman carving was hot and hassled. I said how busy he looked. Maybe a daft thing to say but he commented 'I 'm always busy here. ' Not a happy man. The meat was well cooked no sign of pink lamb sadly but it was the best and tastiest part of our meal. Veg was getting low and he scooped each collection of veg to the side in each tray. Needless to say the food wasnt piping hot and the veg mixed greens, carrots were overcooked. My husband had one new potato. Yorkshire puds wete deflated and doughy thro being kept warm. The cauliflower cheese was not in my opinion a pleasant flavour sauce and I left my serving. There was very little mint sauce left so we scraped the dish out that was self serve. Lack of staff caused some of these issues I feel sure. The view where we sat was really off putting and so hot I couldnt stay longer so no desserts for us. A disappointing experience. Price per person: £20–30 Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 2"
