Granary Beefeater in Peterborough

Absolutely shocking! Myself and my best friends have had a tradition of meeting here every Friday before Christmas for the past 20 years. Over the past 5 years the standard of hospitality and food has decreased dramatically! This evening we were informed that there was a reduced menu, reduced drink availability, and the manager had decided to Close the bar at 10pm!!! I had the most dry and pathetic Burger with a small handful of chips for £17!!! I shared the pic on FB and the comments are hilarious! This place is terrible now. New management needed.

Six dined and three had Christmas special. Roast potatoes only half cooked and hard inside, no stuffing, brussels hard and no grattan. Various items not available. A meal not to remember.

On a meal deal, the menu has almost depleted with minimal choice, the list of unsvailable items was bigger than available items, settled for fish and chips, and garden peas, no mushy peas as they were unavailable, said fish n chips arrived and the portion would not feed a 3 year old, asked if I wanted a dessert they wanted a supplement to be paid, it was not much to be fair, but the point was they could not waiver that in place of the substandard portion of the main meal, unfortunately for me, the meal deals are paid up front and I am here all week .....see what breakfast brings am starving 😫

No lighting outside to attract people,drove past and had to come back. No lit signage at all.Lovely pub with a gallery upstairs.Beautifully decorated for xmas. Waited at the desk, 2 members of staff came to the desk, both completely ignored us. Eventually somebody came but didn't say hello just "have you booked". The place was very quiet with maybe only 5 tables in use. We ordered our drinks and food as we went specially for the festive menu. The drinks came, and very shortly after our starters. My husband had prawn cocktail which he said was " alright, nothing special". My soup was lukewarm, so I asked for it to be heated. The waitress said "sorry", I said it wasn't her fault. The soup was taken away and she shouted so everyone heard "another soup please". It was replaced and was hot and very nice. The festive turkey dinner was brought just as another waitress removed the dishes from the starter. I said " are they in a rush to get rid of us". The turkey dinner was an absolute joke. Cold mushy carrots and cabbage,sprouts so hard they wouldn't cut in half,lukewarm roast potatoes and gravy,the parsnips were o.k but lukewarm. Then there's the turkey, while my husband got 3 decent sized slices, I got 1 end piece which was tough and full of fat and gristle.Again it was lukewarm. Disgusting. £51.50 wasted. We paid and left. We didn't ask for the duty manager, she was one of the 2 people who ignored us at the entrance desk. We usually go to Beefeater at Deerpark Edinburgh and having had many festive meals there, which have always been fantastic, we expected the same. Go hungry, don't waste your hard earned cash at The Granary, its rubbish.

Jasmine was a friendly waitress, and the food was good. Thank you Jasmine. We had a voucher to use which helped bring the cost down.

The atmosphere was really enjoyable to have your dinner in. I had the gammon and it was incredible very succulent! All fairly priced too. lovely friendly service. lots of lovely cow pics 🤣🤌🏼

This was a well deserved family meal outing. Let me begin with how welcoming the staff were leading us to our table for the evening, then came over our waitress for the evening Mel what a radiant, bubbly sunshine she was. She began taking our drinks order and then returned to take our food order. My wife and child had the mix grill, I chose the fillet and all the steaks cooked to perfection! The chefs added to the quiet atmosphere thank goodness I am a chef myself they was lucky I didn’t shout weyhey when someone drops something in the kitchen always a typical chef thing to do lol. We then couldn’t resist dessert and Mel exceeded in this for sure. Mel deserves so much praise and appreciation for what I would say is the perfect way to be as a host throughout our dining experience. Thank you Mel 😊

Great time. Excellent food. Good service. Can’t believe waitress Louise recognised me after 2 years! Couldn’t think of a better place to enjoy a full English breakfast.

We visited this restaurant for our evening meal, the food was delicious and the service from our waitress Amy was exceptional.

We had excellent food and excellent service when we called in for dinner. The food was good quality and the steak I had was very tasty and juicy. The food was fresh and very hot. The waitress was very friendly and efficient.

Lovely service from Martha quick efficient and really kinda happy to make changes to my main and a really well cooked fillet

Beautiful meal and staff went over and above to make our meal special as we'd just got engaged. Amy served us and she was so attentive. The manager tried to amend our breakfast booking so family could attend knowing there's over 890 people booked in today. Thanks for an amazing memory, we'll be back ☺️

I have been a regular patron of The Granary from the 80's onwards and today has been a less than satisfactory experience. There is a problem with car parking, now you have to pay. No signage until you go through the barrier and you are in the restaurant .More importantly no communication prior to booking this change had happend. One of the managers shrugged it off and said "nothing he could do". I moved the car, rang the barrier, explained parked in error to be told sarcastically "looks like you are stuck in here for good then" before the barrier was opened. Not the greatest of starts..... Ordered a meal with my mother as we were out for a mother's day treat. The lamb for me and the beef roast for her. The Beef roast arrived looked quite chargrilled, the lamb roast had 2 small pieces of lamb, 3 small roast potatoes and veg to make it look bigger. It was a joke...All the tables around me reacted when their respective lunches were served as I didn't want to spoil our afternoon/lunch out I purposely said nothing. However, there was plenty of mint sauce, if I had put that on my plate it would have been smothered. The quality and standard of the lunch was sub standard for the price. That together with the car parking fiasco, ruined what should have been a pleasant afternoon. Our server Martha was excellent, friendly, helpful and kept her sense of composure during some hostile encounters this afternoon. Sorry Granary, you have lost a dedicated customer !

We used to go quite often for breakfast and it was always spot on. Today it most definitely wasn’t. The pain au chocolat were all squished and mushed together. The hot breakfast mediocre at best. Cheap sausages, bacon all stuck together, egg over cooked, beans tastes tangy. I let the waitress know that it wasn’t up to their usual standard and her response was will I like eating it!! Well good for you but as a customer I did not!! Such a shame cos we used to really enjoy it there.

We go on special occasions and have had some lovely meals in a good atmosphere we always put a special request on the booking so we get maximum value

Nice lunch wasn't too busy, so was very pleasant. Waitress very attentive, good choice on menu. Good view over golf course. Only niggle is The Granary doesn't offer decaffeinated coffee or tea which nowadays is commonplace and a popular choice in eateries.

Excellent service and attention from Natalie. Good choice of well prepared meals in a comfortable and friendly environment. Recommended.

Varied menu containing good reasonably priced food. A great steak served with excellent service. However, parking was disappointing and at a cost

A special shout out to our waitress Louise who went above and beyond to make my autistic sons visit here this morning as comfortable as possible, we really can’t Thankyou enough for going that extra mile and being so understanding. The unlimited cooked breakfast is delicious and a wide range of options to try from the continental breakfast. Thankyou for making us feel so comfortable and welcome. We will definitely be back.

Great service and food was hot and cooked to perfection, we did not have to wait too long for the drinks, Emma our hostess was great and very helpful.

The staff were friendly, efficient and polite. The food was delivered in good time and was hot! The toilets were clean and tidy. I would go back anytime.

Breakfast great and tables clean. Breakfast choices are plenty with continental buffet and full English. Service excellent as always from Louise

Great service, nothing was too much trouble for Jamie G. He was very fast and someone that is enthusiastic about hospitality. Any problems were swiftly fixed.

I have a great experience every week I stay at the Premier Inn next door. Basically lived here for 6months and without fail every week the food and service here is impeccable 👌 Big thanks to all the breakfast and evening staff especially Louise! Thank you for making me feel comfortable and welcome every day! Will miss you guys! All the best in your futures, maybe our paths will cross again sometime!

We came around 12:30 for the Sunday lunch, and our waiter was a lovely man called James B, Front the moment we sat down he was over to take our drinks order and ask us how we were, Throughout the meal and dessert he was amazing and kept checking on us, we asked if we could leave him a tip but he only suggested a review and that was a lovely sentiment, Would 100% return again, lovely place and lovely staff, not to mention the food to!

Booked for a valentines meal saturday 17th when we were seated was told they had stopped the valentines menu ,was very disappointed they should not send a text offering this ,when it was from the 12 th to the 17th ,we got up and left...

Stopped at the premiere inn next door, glad that I chose to have the meal deal here as the food was really good! The service was excellent by Chloe W, who smiled throughout service and was extremely attentive, great place for casual dining.

I wanted to give a special shout out to AmyMarie, our waitress tonight who went above and beyond on customer service, attentiveness, courtesy, and professionalism. She made our visit extremely pleasurable and I wish her all the best for the future.

We decided to spoil ourselves with the Sharer Roast at twice the price of an individual roast; expecting a large plate with basically 2 roast dinners on. However, what we were served was extremely disappointing. Two of us had to share 7 slices of carrot,...

I used to really enjoy Beefeater but was disappointed on this occasion The topped fries were soggy And I was looking forward to Halloumi but they had none in stock I felt the prices had increased since last visit The chicken burger was very tasty

Amazing just a really nice tasteful meal.fun to go with with friends waiters are kind helpful and have a amazing hospitality trait that makes the experience 1000X better

Thought we would give the place another try after a terrible meal we had there a couple of months or so ago. Nothing changed, overpriced food, poor quality and absolutely terrible service. Thought the place looked quite tatty and in need of refurbishment. Even though...

Emma was extra helpful and attentive. I’m gluten free and newly dairy free and she went out of her way to make my meal as good as it could be. Coming back several times to check whether I’d be interested in vegan alternatives that I...

Lovely meal, friendly bar staff and accommodate dietary needs very well - would highly recommend

Always a great place to go for breakfast. We have a cooked and continental breakfast. Eat as much as you like. Hot food cooked to order. As much tea or coffee as you want as with the fruit juices.

We went for lunch great atmosphere, staff were very attentive and we wasn’t rushed. My husband and I both had the ribeye steak one medium rare one medium it was cooked to perfection. All in all a very relaxed meal with great food.

Best breakfast in peterborough,the staff can't do enough for you and kids eat free under 16,it costs £20 for our family of 6,thank you for the great experience

Had a lovely evening at the Beefeater Granary in Orton. Lovely meal in pleasant surroundings. Emma served us and looked after us very well.

First of all very disappointed that crispy wings were out of stock as all four of us wanted to order them, Our server was chloe and how lucky you are to have such a skilled employee, she was very attentive which was very good considering...

We always rely on the beefeater after the Posh match. The service, food and prices are always top notch.

The prostions were very small for the price not worth the money at all asked about the roast as I thought it was cravy and the waiter made me feel like an idot for asking

We were staying next door in the Premier Inn and decided to have dinner at the Granary, Excellent food and drinks, fantastic service from Amber, great attention to Detail and made us feel extremely welcome. We also had 2 x breakfasts as well, yet again...

As the turkey delivery had not arrived they made amends by offering any roast meat for the same Festive Menu price which was fair enough. It was okay for a basic roast. The alarms kept going off due to some child playing with them and...

Great food, friendly staff, would recommend coming. Went for my husband birthday it was a lovely meal, food was lovely and the staff was very kind and patient overall great experience

Thank you to Emma for your excellent service. Food was good Vegan options varied and good choice, thanks again Emma.

Two nights with dinner and breakfast deals. The meals were excellent, couldn't fault the service or the staff , everyone really friendly.

Went there with friends and jamie on the bar was excellent. He provided great service, made you feel welcomed and treated us with respect.

Would not use without beefeater voucher poor quality obviously cost involved not value for money!!!!

Was served by Amy. She was ace. So nice & friendly. Dashing around keeping customers happy. Went to leave a tip but couldn't cause I was on a meal deal & had no cash.

The food was excellent and hot, and Claire was our waitress, she was very pleasant and helpful Full marks on all accounts

Took advantage of the 40% off mains deal this weekend. The food is always of a great standard and the waiters/waitresses always give great service. Always enjoy returning 👍

The steak can only be described as sad! Not horrid but definitely sad! Rough like a road side cafe’ but with none of the charm and wilted garnish- sadly not like it used to be! And will defo not be back

Just returned from Sunday lunch we all had the Sunday roast (beef) which was the best I have had in a restaurant for a long time Molly was efficient and pleasant small gripe the soft drinks are bottomless but not advertised as such and not...

Great food as usual, helpful staff and all round cracking time had by the family. Always nice to sit by a golf course out of the rain!!!

Thank you to our server (Amy?? Black cat on Halloween) Amazing service and very thorough with allergies

Came in for breakfast with the family for a birthday treat and had an amazing full English. Kids loved the buffet (toast, cereal) and we enjoyed the full English. Staff were friendly and helpful. Served by Molly who was so personable and friendly, especially for 8am in the morning.

Been coming here for a few months for breakfast and evening meals staff excellent breakfast you can have as much as you want great value for money kids eat free molly is very helpful if you need anything and we love the beefeater breakfast and staff very helpful and always smiling from John and sue

My husband and I come here for breakfast at the weekend and the waitress (louise) is exceptional. She always remembers what we order, she is super friendly always polite and professional a great asset to the restaurant.

Amazing breakfast as always, it is best full English around plus the continental all for a great price

Great service from Sammy and James. Great food and served on a hot plate! Thanks very much to all and we will see you again

Excellent service and food lovely staff and atmosphere went for dinner with family will be returning again.

Went for dinner with my sister the manager belinda was amazing she went above and beyond to make it an amazing experience would definitely recommend going

Breakfast was good as always, but halfway through eating an employee came in with her kids being super loud and disruptive. That’s wasn’t the main problem tho the problem was the mother leaving her young kid unattended sat in the middle of the dining room with an iPad on full volume and then he throw up everywhere, which is pretty off putting as it is but not the kids fault or the parents so this wouldn’t have been such an issue if she took the child to the toilet and cleaned the mess up after sorting the kid so the customers ain’t watching her sick child being sick ,gagging or watching her clean sick but instead she wanted to clean it by herself after repeatedly being offered by colleagues to help her and then ran past me into the staff room multiple times with puke dripping from the tissue she’s cleaning up with, this didn’t only put me off my breakfast made my stomach turn then to top it off leaves her kid again bare in mind he’s about 3/4 after just being sick to go and rant to her friends/coworkers about his puke and how she’s paranoid about the kid gonna puke again zero professionalism whether she’s working or not and if she wants to claim that she wasn’t working why was she using the staff rooms next to me to throw her sicky tissues away and not general public toilet. Super disappointing as the breakfasts are normally very good

Hi went to the granary last weekend had a beautiful dinner on Friday night lovely fish and chips excellent but unfortunately went there for breakfast had to wait 90 minutes for breakfast to be served and then there was no eggs or sausage on my...
