Like another author on here, having a meal in a department store seemed to me to be a bit "old hat", what with all the other dining opportunities there are about the place these days. But, knowing that the House of Fraser store in the centre of Hull will be closing shortly (see below) made me especially nostalgic so when the opportunity arose to visit I welcomed it with open arms. I won't claim this to be the swishest place in town. For a start, it's in the basement which means there is no natural light, nor do you benefit from the rooftop views which are common to many department store cafes and restaurants these days. But the atmosphere was friendly and there was a choice of conventional tables or comfy armchairs to sit in. There was the usual range of coffees and teas on offer, and a modest selection of cakes and sandwiches. I chose a chicken and bacon panini with caramelised onion jam. This was toasted to order, served with a small side garnish, arrived within a few minutes and tasted delicious! The staff were very friendly and chatty and it is sad to think they will lose their jobs in a few months' time - readers will probably know that this particular store has been axed by House of Fraser with a provisional closing date of 19th January 2019. I for one will be very sad to see it go - I remember back to the days when it traded as "Binns" (part of the family group which operated in the north east of England) and - even further back in the mists of time - good old "Hammonds", another local family firm which actually built the store in its prominent location opposite the railway station the early 1950s. Time marches on sadly and the days of the conventional department store may be numbered. But there is still time to pay a visit to this pleasant hideaway in the centre of the city.

Recently visited. Had a hot panini with a bowl of chips and a pot of tea. All quite good except salad garnish with the panini. The Garnish was also spoilt somewhat by the brown dressing. Might be a good idea to ask customers if they would prefer the salad with or without dressing.

Hace unos años, la idea de ir a una tienda restaurante departamento habría parecía profundamente trágico. Y todavía hay una parte de mí que piensa de esta manera. Sin embargo, he aprendido a vivir con estos prejuicios. Paramos aquí para almorzar porque habíamos llegado a punto de hambre y queríamos algo rápido. Este era el sitio más cercano. El restaurante está en el piso inferior donde las ventanas son escasos. Puedes sentarte en el medio del departamento de ropa y, si te gusta, mirando con ojos penetrantes a los clientes mientras que navegar alrededor de la ropa. Aparte de todo esto, sin embargo, me he dado a este cuatro estrellas porque la comida superó mis expectativas, me dieron una porción muy decente y la señorita que me atendió me sorprendió conversador y un poco de reír. Me dio la sensación de que cuando me fui, lo que debe de ser bueno.

En la pasión por una taza a media mañana, decepcionados con el panini y una pobre intento de guarnición. Mientras que el personal era amable este echaba por el entorno y el hecho de que su pago con tarjeta de máquina era excepcionalmente lento y personal se disculpó de que este era un aparición regular. En general no me impresionó y no volveremos, creo Casa de Fraser en Hull ha visto días mejores.

Un entorno cómodo con comida de buena calidad. Sopa con rodillo y profunda llena de sandwich hace un buen respiro. Limpia un entorno agradable. Servicio atento. Cuando compras en búsqueda de la ciudad de la cultura en 2017.

La cafetería está situada en el sótano de la casa de la tienda que está justo en frente de fraser la estación en el centro de la ciudad. La opción de desayuno inglés cocinado era excelente y la comida era deliciosa. Este es un buffet donde podrá elegir cualquiera de las seis u ocho artículos. Todos elegimos seis que era bastante suficiente. Una rebanada de pan blanco o marrón y mantequilla tostado está incluido en el precio, pero las bebidas son independientes. Sin embargo, agua helada. El personal era muy amable y nos hizo muy bienvenida haciendo lo imposible para asegurarse de que todos tenían exactamente lo que queríamos.

Visited Prezzo as a last minute meal. Visited during the week so it wasn’t too busy and was able to get seated straight away. Service was good and orders were taken promptly. We went for Calamari starter and I chose the Calzone for main. The calamari was cooked just right and was served with a lovely Garlic Aioli. Calzone was cooked just right but was a little on the cold side. The tomato sauce was nice but wasn’t enough compared to the size of the calzone.

What a shame. This place is clearly run down. Hygiene and housekeeping leaves a lot to be desired. Food - edible but disappointing and certainly not as the pictures in the menu promise. We've been coming here for 15 years but this was the last time. A sign of this times i guess. This place needs serious investment to bring it to its former glory.

Pube in my food!!!!! Curly hair, the wraps have hardly nothing in them and are really small about 5 chips think they need a better cook also the chocolate calzone doesn’t have much chocolate in it and tastes like burnt chocolate inside 🤢
