Disappointed overall and service was slow. Would suggest, if you are not staying there, go to the Crowne Plaza which is a little further along.

We were the only diners, apart from a large coach party of pensioners. There had been a self serve carvery set up for them, which gave the impression of a budget meal option. We were seated at the edge of the room and felt like intruders. The menu choice was not very extensive and there was no set menu option. The scallop starter was 3 scallops for just under £10. The veggie risotto was over cooked and stodgy - i suspect it was from the freezer. My plaice was meant to be pan fried but it was under cooked and showed no signs of any taste that pan frying would have given. The skin would not separate from the flesh as it had not been cooked enough and was soggy. The waitress made a complete mesh of filleting it for me - i ended up with a untidy and unappealing pile of fish which i couldn't eat as i couldn't separate the skin. The fish was cold by the time i ate it. The sauce served with the fish was disgusting. For a four star hotel this was all unacceptable. We should have had a bar meal - those looked much more appealing and there was a wide range. (The bar served great cocktails too.)We were staying over at the hotel whilst visiting family so eating in seemed the best choice but, whilst we would stay at the hotel again, we would not contemplate eating in this restaurant again.

sadly this is one of the worst dinning experiences I have ever encountered, the waitress had no knowledge, the food was very poor, the wine was ok, the coffee disgusting, we won't be eating here again. We have dined here in the past and had a good experience, it has obviously gone down hill.

A beautiful day, in the company of a good friend whose birthday it was and you can imagine how much I was looking forward to a celebratory lunch at this four star hotel set in lovely grounds. Well what a let down! No atmosphere and only a few guests at a conference for background ambience and you can see how flat it all was. The food was barely adequate...overcooked chicken , fish with little added interest except some salad which looked suspiciously out of a packet from a well known food market nearby. The waitress was most attentive, almost overly so and although I had mentioned that it was a celebratory lunch this was not acknowledged in any way. Just awful..

What a disappointment. Sunday Lunch with jazz was very poor both in service, food and value. Plenty of staff but none of whom seemed to have had any training and showed no interest in there customers, in fact they were very unmotivated. The Restaurant was cold due to the AC on in February, we were told it could not be altered!?! The food was only just average with bought in frozen starters and desserts and poor choice. The Sunday Lunch carvery was Ok although the roast potatoes had not seen any oven but a deep fat frier! A 10% service charge was added to the bill making the whole experience very expensive for what we received. I honestly believe the Toby Carvery down the road is 100% better quality

Despite having received e-mail confirmation of my booking through Toptable, restaurant staff could find no trace of it. The other big disappointment was that although I had booked for lunch in a prestigious establishment, all they could offer was the bar menu. The "pub grub" we had was very good of its kind but the choice was limited and not what was expected from a restaurant with a long-standing reputation.
