The Loft - Menu

We had an excellent lunch today , the best we have had there for a while . The sea bass was delicious , as was the lamb shank, fish and chips , waffle with ice cream and the profiteroles. Thank you

Would not recommend. Turkey was rolled in bacon, turkey was tough and bacon uncooked. Parsnips two very small pieces which were over cocked, crisp and tasteless. Graveyard was nice so was my waffle. Not value for money. We had preordered so everything should have been perfect.

What a lovely setting, especially in the sun. Spotlessly clean and the service was great. However, the food was just average. I had the curry, all I could taste was the tomatoes rather than spices. The lack of real chips was also disappointing. I would only ever drinks here next time. View menu

I went to the restaurant with my family for the Sunday Carvery, it was just okay for the price. The roast potatoes were extremely tough and hard to cut, the meat was fatty, and the server was unfriendly and abrupt. A simple smile or acknowledgement would have improved the experience. I do not plan on going back.

Went out for birthday meal with my friend and we were greeted like royalty. Lovely restaurant well decorated for Xmas. Waitress Jade was very patient and helpful and meal of Xmas menu was exceptional. Huge portions of food and very reasonable. Mouth watering turkey dinner for mains and huge Nutella waffle for desert. The other waiters were helpful and the little waiter with curly hair was always as making sure we were ok. Very professional service. I will definitely come again.

The atmosphere at the restaurant was beautiful and the cleanliness was impeccable. We had a great waitress, although we didn't catch her name, who was professional, polite, and very helpful. Unfortunately, the food was not up to par. The quality was poor and the presentation left much to be desired. I paid £15 for a bowl of unappetizing and sloppy lasagne with two small pieces of garlic bread, lacking any greenery or garnish. This fell well below expectations considering the price. I most likely would not return as the food did not meet my expectations, which is disappointing. View menu

Very disappointing experience. Food was mediocre but child’s sausages arrived burnt to a crisp. My adult meal was also burnt in places. Only nondairy bread available was unpalatable gluten free crusts. Dogs were allowed into main restaurant part, despite having a designated dog friendly area which naturally seemed to be the conservatory area. We sat close to three large, lively and barking dogs. An unpleasant experience, especially when children in my group are extremely nervous of strange dogs. I’m sorry to say that, after many years of enjoying visiting and eating at the Loft, I will not be returning.

A shambles of a restaurant! I booked a festive carvery for 9 people at 2 pm, there were no starters left only soup, even though the restaurant was only half full and many more came in after us. When they came to take our order for starters they didn’t have, we asked could we order our desserts then in case they ran out of those too, which we did. The carvery was any 2 of beef, Turkey or ham plus veg. Not very good. When they came to bring the desserts, they’d runout of 3 even though we booked it before our main course!! The staff were young and didn’t know what they were doing. Needless to say I won’t go again.

We attended here as a large family group to celebrate my 70th birthday. It was very quiet despite it being a Saturday lunchtime and perhaps I can see why. Meals were average at best. My wife had a steak that was as tough as old boots. Three of us had the lamb shank that was relatively tasteless and served with gravy rather than the promised red currant jus. The beer battered fish were overcooked and would have been better served with home cooked chips. The risotto was just a mush and the oven baked hake fillet portion was tiny. Some of our family had travelled a long way for the occasion and frankly we were disappointed. We had chosen this restaurant because we had enjoyed very good meals th... View menu
