Nice place for a coffee and snack. Alcohol also available. People who run the place are nice and friendly and keen to help. Can get a little busy. But worth a visit.

Have been here several times before without any complaints but felt today that I needed to write this review. Having a child with coeliac disease can be a struggle when trying to find a place that is safe for them to eat at so when I was told on a previous visit that the cafe offered gluten free alternatives I was made up that my 10yr old could go! So having got my 3 children ready to go we walked for half an hour to the golf course with a very happy 10yr old! Upon arrival we were told that the cafe was busy due to a large party already being in there and they wouldn’t be serving food for at least 30mins. We were ok with that and didn’t mind the wait but when we enquired what was available for gluten free we were told that there was none as the fryers were being used for the big party and would be having food items put in them that were NOT gluten free! The whole point of having a separate fryer is to avoid cross contamination and make it safe for a coeliac. Unfortunately I had to leave with 3 very disappointed hungry children with a 30 minute walk home.

Been a few times and it's a lovely set up. Quite overpriced for the area but the location is lovely. Lately it always seems a bit chaotic and with the summer garden open at the back it's double the punters than there used to be which is great for businesses but they need to do something about the toilet situation, 2 toilets isn't enough there always rammed and a bit grim.

This place was recommended to me and as we live locally thought we would try it for lunch. Absolute nightmare!! The parking situation is awful, if in fact you can park, we’ve tried before and had to leave, but not put off so gave it another try today. We arrived at one for lunch, ordered some drinks and food, not a banquet, and only two of us. We heard the table next to us complaining about a long wait, but it was a lovely day so we sat it out…… One hour and 15 minutes later, and having to ask a couple of times about the wait, and only thanks to Anna, our food arrived! It was only calamari, halloumi, and a burger, nothing difficult but took that long. I did speak to the manager, who apologised and offered a refund, which we refused. But really, you need to get your act together food wise otherwise people just won’t come. Last time for us anyway. ( also, I’m diabetic which did not help)

Cracking bar set up, perfect for an after round of golf drink. Or a lazy boozy lunch 🍻

Service was poor and food was pretty terrible. Not angry, didn't have anyone being rude and not expecting them to pretend to be happy at work, it was just rubbish execution. Seems like staff either aren't trained or aren't managed. Drinks orders that only get half fulfilled, weirdly putting the food on the end of the table, not in front of anyone. The food had clearly been sat on the pass for an age as it was all pretty cold, the hollandaise was a watery mess with a SKIN on top... and only 1 of the 5 poached eggs for the table was anything other than hard boiled. The kitchen must have been having trouble cos the nuked eggs were matched with undercooked bacon and hash browns. 3 star atmosphere cos it was sunny and we sat outside.

Been here lots of times since it’s opened, this was the first time in a while. There where 4 staff members behind the bar with just one serving so I thought it was staff training but apparently not, they where just standing around watching, I did ask?? I ordered drinks and said I will take a menu outside to show friends and come back to order food. Was asked was it a takeaway?? Then as going back out with both hands full a staff member came in (saw me) and let the very heavy door close behind him!! A lovely customer saw what happened and opened the door for me. Very disappointed as this is all basic customer service. After finishing our food outside the plates where left on our table for ages and where still there when we left . Other golfers / people around where saying similar things like no cutlery or condiments brought before food arrived and had to ask. It’s such a shame as this used to be a well run venue. Also, where has the mirror in ladies toilets gone there is one in the gents and the toilets had a nasty smell… Not up to previous visits/experiences that’s such a shame and I think it’s all about staff training, supervision and staff enjoying being with people who visit this venue. It used to be a lovely experience going here….

Ordered smash burgers, absolutely easiest thing in the world to make , ball of seasoned quality mince and smash and flip, however the burgers you serve are just frozen poor quality burgers not patties, I’m convinced a while ago they used to be freshly smashed ones. Won’t be eating them again. Staff and drinks were very nice I must add.

Nice place.. however check your bill before tapping your card. Bought a round yesterday, 2 pints (camden and mahou), 1 double vodka with lemonade an black current. 1 double rhubarb and ginger gin with lemonade. Seen today was charged £27.80. Doesnt seem to match the prices displayed on the website. I never bought fevertree tonics or anything. If 2 pints is £10, then the other 2 drinks work out i have paid £8.90 each?

I stopped by with a few friends for breakfast after an overnight stay locally, the place was fairly quiet, however as more tables filled up the noise levels were really high. The bar staff were super friendly and welcoming. We placed our order, with one of us ordering their food a few minutes before the rest of our order was placed. This resulted in their food arriving first, and them having finished their food before the rest of us received ours. Something is going wrong in the kitchen as not only were the eggs missing from the full English breakfast, but all the food arrived cold! We thought it might have just been a one off but then the rest of our food arrived cold too. We noticed that the food was being carried outside in the rain from the kitchen to the restaurant which probably didn't help with this and since our friend had already eaten their meal we didn't want any further delay to go and complain. Aside from the food being cold, the portion sizes were generous and I'm sure would have tasted great had it been hot!

Just got back from this venue. Ordered 3 meals. Waited 50 mins if not longer for it to arrive. Asked twice where food was. Told 5 mins. 20 mins later after asking, for the second time. Really feel like the order was forgotten. When arrived 2 meals steak baguettes and Parmesan fries. Stone cold. Plus parmasen fries were just cold fries. No parmasen on them. Toddlers meal sausage beans and fries. Cooked to within an inch of their life. The young lad who dealt with us was very apologetic, not his fault. Just wonder who oversees the place. Won’t be back.

Came for dinner, ordered 2 adult meals and a childs meal. Food took just under an hour to come out even after chasing twice, when it did the 2 adult meals came 1st and where stone cold and not as described on the menu. The childs meal came about 10 minutes later and was very clearly reheated beans where so overcooked they where hard. Sausages where also rock hard. Shame really as I go to that park alot with my daughter, we would have been popping in regular but not after today. Absolute shambles.

Came a few times last summer. Just called in with wife and baby. A little gang of tweens on bikes outside rolling spliffs. What appeared to be a supervisor was sat a couple of yards away and said nothing. Seventy per cent of empty tables cluttered with glasses. Toilet not very clean or tidy. Left without buying anything. Doubt I’ll be back again.

Was good stop off at the park service a little slow seemed to be cooked in order rather then as orders are placed. Was a little on the cooler side then would have liked but was a good portion and flavourful what we all had others may have been a little disappointed at the temperature.

Great place to visit for a bite to eat and catching up with family and friends, I sat outside for the first time with my mum and sister and met our two cousin's who we had not seen for awhile. I then ordered pepperoni pizza 🍕 and salted fries 🍟 while my cousin bought us a pint of blackcurrant soda and later on had a latte to drink. The food and drink was lovely and the service was good too, also the atmosphere was lovely when you sat outside in the fresh air under a big gazebo and chatted lots too.

Had a wander up to the Park and decided to have a bite to eat. Very disappointed, had a burger and fries and considering the price of £11:50, it was very poor. I don't mind paying, but I would expect a much better product, in addition to arriving, just look warm. Sorry, I've had to post this, but hopefully, it helps going forward as I would like to see them thrive.

As a group of five adults we decided to visit Saturday night and was very disappointed the bar area looked like everything was just dumped there were no chairs to sit on as all the chairs were outside being used by large groups, unfortunately after 1 drink we left to see customers arriving with pizza's bought from outside agencies, don't know whether to try the venue again.

Nice place, idea is great , but lots of dogs in there sniffing around the tables were your eating is a poor hygiene failure, the new toddlers play area out side was full off teenagers on electric cycles using gas canisters , paths are dark and unlit , very intimidating. It's £4 pounds for a can of Guinness, I bought 2 double gin and tonics for me and my friend it was liverpool gin because I don't like beefeater, it was 16 pounds, a bit steep I thought ?? Town or hotel prices. Staff were great and friendly, place was clean but still very new. Go yourself and see if you agree.

Update: It's closed! 😔 So sad. First time I've been here since management changed. It's really nice, the food and service is excellent. Just by a lake with views out onto it with a large patio area. It's perfect for breakfast and lunch with generous portions. Marginally higher prices that the area, but a much nicer experience! Also are now beginning to open for small plates in the evening.

First time customer but won't be back. Lamb (mutton?) tough, chicken chewy, dishes flavourless, artificial colouring, madras far too hot for a set menu dish. Don't like leaving bad reviews but only tried because of high rating here so only fair to other potential customers to be honest.
