"When I arrived, I had to wait for the turkey to be served since the pork had run out and the gammon was nearly gone, and this was only 6:45 in the evening. Additionally, when you pay for the extra-large portion, it's unclear how the chef recognizes who has ordered it, as all the plates are the same size. It would be helpful to have a ticket system to indicate who is entitled to the larger portion. The chef was also asking everyone whether they wanted one or two Yorkshire puddings, which means that those paying the same price may not be getting the benefit of the larger portion that some customers paid extra for. A solution could be to have different-sized plates to better differentiate portion sizes."

I arrived at the restaurant and had to wait for a turkey dish to be served, while the pork and gammon were almost depleted, and it was only 6:45 in the evening. Even though I paid for the extra large portion, the cook and the servers seemed to treat all portions uniformly in size, which was disappointing. They should issue a ticket for those who ordered the larger portions. When the cook asked if anyone wanted pudding or Yorkshire, it was frustrating to see that those who paid extra were receiving the same portion size as everyone else. They really need to consider using different sized plates for the various portion options.

"Myself and my family have been to the pizza cafè on various occasions over the past 5 to 10 years. I remember going with my parents from a young age on a Saturday or Sunday as a treat and in my adulthood visiting a few times. Each time I’ve gone sadly the character and standards of the place have continued to decline. The food is average although the prices are still rising, and the service can be quite poor. The pizzas used to be a lot tastier (and bigger), it all seemed fresher, served with a smile and fairly quickly… however on my last visit after being seated me and my partner waited a good 15minutes to be asked which drinks we’d like to order in which case we had already decided what we wanted to eat and quickly ordered not knowing how much longer we’d have to wait for someone to come and take our order again. Then nearly 45mins to an hour later our food arrived! We almost walked out at one point. It wasn’t particularly busy this night either. We had slow service, the food was not worth the price, and we also seemed to be waiting a lot because of a seemingly new staff member not knowing what to do and keeping asking for advice or simply handing it over to someone else which unfortunately I think is what happened to us. I appreciate people have to learn but there should have been a better system in place for someone to help out rather than cause a disruption on a Friday night which could have been a lot busier and caused more delay. I would probably go here again but my expectations are tainted unfortunately."
