Oh dear. Bit of an issue here. Arrived Sunday morning about 11am. Sign at the front said wait to be seated. Lots of seats available. Not that busy. Waited and waited and waited.............. After about 5 minutes a lady asked if we had allergies and had been before..........Why ? They ask you that when you order.... My wife pointed to a corner (as we had dogs) and we sat down. Due to our niece wanting something without cheese I had to go to the bar to order. 3 people in front so around 8 minute wait. Ordered plus 2 coffees and a lemonade. Was told it would be up to 10 minutes to get the coffee as it was very busy. I looked around and it was less than 50% capacity. It was busy at the barista because they have a machine that 3 people could utilise at the same time but only had one girl working it. She then put the orders on a tray and instruct the waitress where to take them. So they sit there until the waitress comes back. Ordered 2 lounge muffins. After 12-15 mins the order came. Same time as the coffees. Watched the kitchen. Order is placed out and bell rung. It sits there until the waitress comes and collects it. In our case it seems it sat a while. When it arrived the eggs and bacon were cold. Matched the luke warm coffee. Prices are excessive for what you receive. The Hitchin chain fares slightly better but some serious time management needed here. Also they need 5 more staff at a minimum. Put 2 or 3 people on the barista. Get the coffees out fast. Get more waitresses so food doesn't go cold at the kitchen serving hatch. Have someone assigned to getting people to tables so they don't stand looking at a half full room wondering why they have to wait 10 minutes. Basic stuff that makes a huge difference.

Went for a meal here, and the place was quiet. And after hearing positive things about this place. I must say I was very disappointed, more so because it's just attention to detail that would make a 3 start review a 5. Minor points regarding food, butter a full slice of toast not just the middle, and learn how to poach and egg properly. But my biggest disappointment was the customer service. Forgetting things instantly and no courtesy check during the meal. And when approached treated like you have just interrupted an important board meeting

I ordered what was the saddest “sausage butty” of my life. If a butty is defined as the thinnest, cheapest, brown bread you could buy, then thisis a butty. A failure to meet most people’s expectations of a butty

Disgusting. The bar was crawling with flies and insects. I filmed it because I was genuinely shocked staff were ignoring it?! We had just ordered food, so I didn't show my video to my family at the time (as they would have walked out). Thankfully, the food looked ok, but I was worried the whole time as the place felt like it needed a deep clean. Tables, chairs and obviously the bar!!

16/06/2024: Came in for Fathers Day Breakfast. Got a table straight away but hadn't been cleaned from previous diners. Service much better than previous visit and the table staff were great. Really good Latte and a cumberland sausage sandwich, touch more expensive than some places but good value. Quick and easy to order via the app QR code. First time here and was looking forward to it. We didn't have a booking but got in after a short wait. Ordered via the App, all quick and easy but then waited and waited and waited. 40 minutes in we were told there was a 45 minutes wait but still waited longer. Nearly an hour for a breakfast and a burger! Food was good but one teaspoon of coleslaw! Come on guys you can do better than that. Otherwise pretty good without being outstanding.

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to share my recent experience at your bar on the evening of 10/06/24. Last Saturday night, my girlfriend and I had a wonderful time at your bar. We enjoyed a fantastic classic cocktail prepared by one of your team members ladies. Because of that great experience, we decided to return tonight for the same drink. Unfortunately, this time was quite disappointing. When we arrived, we were greeted by a bartender who was unfriendly and aggressive name is ''Tim Tim''?. We asked for the same cocktail we had last time, but what we received was far from the quality we expected. When we politely mentioned our dissatisfaction and asked for a new cocktail, the bartender ''Tim Tim''? responded arrogantly, saying, "You expect me to change these cocktails." We were shocked to see the bartender ''Tim Tim''? pour one of the drinks on the floor before making another one with clear disdain. The new cocktail was carelessly served, with half of it spilling onto the table. To make matters worse, it was alcohol-free, which was not what we ordered. Feeling frustrated, we spoke to another staff member ''Millie'' about our complaint. Thankfully, this person was very professional and polite, and they prepared and brought a much better cocktail to our table. While we appreciate the effort made by the second staff member, our initial experience was very disappointing. We came to your bar hoping to enjoy a nice after-dinner drink, but instead, we faced rude behaviour and poor service. I hope you will address this issue and ensure that such behaviour is not repeated. We believe your bar can maintain the high standards that initially attracted us.

I have become a big fan of the whole Lounge experience (and not just because it originated in my home city of Bristol twenty-odd years ago). I felt this Lounge was a little too big and open-plan, losing that quirkiness of some of our more local ones, and while the service was efficient and friendly, I'm not sure the food was quite up to the standard of some other Lounges we have visited.

The tables were on the sticky side but we turned a blind eye as they were fairly busy, and the staff were friendly, helpful and service was fast. Sadly, we found the rest of the experience did not live up to expectation. The carrot cake was sad and seemed old. The Panini was also on the stale side. The tea cups were dirty. Perhaps we got them on a bad day.

I chose this place as my friend is vegan and the vegan menu made her eyes pop, she has never had so much choice. I liked the fact that even though it was brunch all food was available. The staff are really lovely. The food is great, tasty and lovely. NB for bigger appitites like mine, lots of the portions are small (except the burgers) The cocktails were great, I had a frozen margarita and it had a decent amount of alcohol and was a good size Definitly going back

We ordered Bang Bang chicken and Buttermilk fried chicken as mains. Both were overly done and burnt. We found the chicken dry. The drinks too were pathetic. We had to wait for more than one hour to be served (literally). They also had left their back door open, allowing the cold air in. We had travelled for 35 minutes to experience this appalling service. Truly dissapointed.

First time going to this place as I've passed it many times and wanted to try it out, honestly I got mixed feelings. The staff is super friendly, helpful and quickly sort if a mistake happens. The drinks we ordered came quickly, but the food we had to wait almost an hour for, and I'm not sure if it's because of how many people were visiting when we were there, or if it's the kitchen staff taking their time. The fries are really nice, but the burgers were a bit to greasy in my opinion. I'm sure this is a great place to go with friends for a pint, as they do come within 10 minutes of ordering.

Absolutely appalling service. Love that they are dog friendly and have a gluten free menu. However service is absolutely diabolical and I keep forgetting how bad it is and trying this place again for the above reasons. Big sign by the door saying "wait to be seated" yet despite the place being over half empty and at least half a dozen staff visible no-one acknowledged or seated us until we walked to the bar. There we were told ooh there's lots of dirty tables and vaguely waved off to find our own table anyway. Waited over 5minutes to be brought a gluten free menu which I had asked for. When I approached the bar to ask again, the three staff members there were too busy faffing with something they'd messed up on the till to even deal with me. After another several minutes waiting I gave up and left. Don't waste your time or money, shame as the food is usually great but not worth it.

We used to be regular customers in Culitivo however I doubt we'll be back after our last visit. I ordered my food on the app and my wife did the same ordering her own food. My meal arrived after the drinks were brought out. Ten minutes later my wife is still waiting for her food, she goes down to the counter to enquire. She is told by the waitress that she would look into it and returns to our table. I watched from across the restaurant as the waitress clearly had received news from the chef that something had gone wrong with my wife's order. Instead of coming over and relaying what had happened she slinked off to the back part of the restaurant. My wife went back down to the same waitress to follow up on her order. She was told she would just check with the manager. She finally comes to our table and tells us that my wife's meal had been given to a large party of about 10 people about 3 tables away. And to make things worse, they did not have any of that chicken dish left. Laughably, she offered us a complimentary drink courtesy of the management. We refused, decided we had enough and went to get a refund for my wife's meal. The male manager's attitude at the counter was the icing on the cake. He didn't seem too bothered. I struggled to recall a time where I left a restaurant after literally not receiving a meal that was ordered. This came after several previous other issues from previous visits. It takes a lot for me to write a negative review of a business but this was beyond anything I'd experienced before.
