"I mistakenly thought we would be dining at the restaurant with a view on the top floor of the hotel, but we ended up at the café on the ground floor instead. The place was not very busy, but the service was slow and we had to go to the bar to place our order. We ordered cocktails/mocktails and food, hoping to enjoy our drinks while we waited for our food to be prepared, but unfortunately, we had to wait for the cocktails as well. My food was warm instead of hot, possibly due to the delay in receiving our drinks. The waitress was friendly, although it seemed like she was having a rough day. The chairs at our table were not ideal for dining, more suitable for just having a drink as they were too informal for eating comfortably. We were seated inside rather than on the terrace, and the air conditioning was a nice touch. The view of the seafront was pleasant, although it wasn't as spectacular as I had anticipated."

Really disappointing. We have a table for 7 for the 93. My father's birthday booked and wanted it to be a special occasion. We had to wait for every service. I have two menus between us. The food was warm when it arrived. Had to go to the counter to order the next course as there was minimal waiter service. A drink never arrived. It was clear that the servers were rushed from their feet, but the overall experience was sooo disappointing.

The food was really delicious and well presented. I recommend the steak that was delicious. The staff was attentive and helpful and thoughtful without being intrusive. There was a friendly, relaxed atmosphere, with excellent background music that was quiet enough to not spoil the conversation. When it got dark outside, the change of lighting changed the ambience I really liked. I would highly recommend the Vista Bar Cafe at The View Hotel.

We ate here twice during our stay. The first night was lovely, almost all the staff were great, just let down by one female employee who decided to chat with another couple for some 15 minutes even though we tried to get her attention several times for the bill. In the end my husband went to the bar. Such a shame. Fortunately she didn't appear on the second evening. That night staff brilliant but my choice of gammon was wrong. Extremely salty

Our visit was very disappointing. We had made a reservation for a table of 7 to celebrate my Dad's 93rd birthday and were hoping for a special occasion. Unfortunately, we had to wait a long time for any service and only received 2 menus for our group. The food arrived only warm and we had to go up to the counter to order our next course due to minimal waiter service. One of our drinks never arrived. It was evident that the servers were overwhelmed with work, but the overall experience was extremely disappointing.
