They will not accept a booking for 2 people on a Saturday between 17.30 and 21.00. Larger parties only. Will have to go to one of their competitors instead.

Had the pleasure of experiencing a fabulous meal at Heathes. The service from when we arrived and throughout was perfect, attentive without being intrusive and very friendly. The food was absolutely delicious and we were able to watch Ali cooking in the kitchen in itself a fun spectacle. Whilst not the cheapest the prices offered good value for the quality and the wine was lovely too and not overpriced. We would definitely all return and recommend to others. Don't be put off by the frontage not the prettiest but inside its well laid out, comfy seats and a very relaxing vibe. Ali and Gulden obviously have worked very hard to create a fab place. We WILL be back Thank you

All age groups seemed to be enjoying themselves. We shared a platter and the food was superb, beautifully seasoned and cooked. We will be back!

First try and wrong order taken. When our main arrived just realised they’d cut down the portion. It’s totally look different when you dine at dinner time compare to lunch time even though you’re ordering the same thing. To be fair, food is good but not pleasant to dine in a dirty place. Waiter never double check or repeat our order and that’s why wrong order has been taken. Will only go back again when they have improve their in-house cleanliness and service.

Went there for Mothers Day. 3 of my family are veggies. No choice for them so had to have moussaka. They got order wrong. When mousaka came absolutely tiny portion more like starter. No salad or garlic bread or anything with it. My roast chicken was nice except for very salty gravy but was meant to have been chicken supreme!! Desserts were nice. Very over priced for what we had. My poor daughter paid £30 each for what amounted to a starter and pudding. Decor poor. Staff didn't know what they were doing and to add insult to injury they put on a service charge!!! Dreadful. Certainly won't go or recommend going there

Booked for my mum and family for Mother’s Day.. hoping to treat her to something a bit special! we were sorely disappointed.. There was only one vegetarian option and when it arrived ( moussaka ) it was a small portion with absolutely nothing else served with it.. no salad, vegetables or even bread! We questioned politely if there was an accompaniment to the vegetarian moussaka - and were told “no” .. even though mum had the chicken option and she had a side of vegetables included! Two courses were £30 - the dessert was tasty - however woefully small portions again… we are not greedy gannets! However felt this was very overpriced for no choice and small portions. We felt overpriced sadly for ambience, service and most importantly the food.

Very enjoyable food and service and we will return yet again . By way of constructive criticism my personal gripe was the background music which is soooo out dated and frankly tuneless and repetitive and surely few can relate to. Some 70s ,80s or 90s ballads ,soft music (not r/r or pop) would surely add to the appeal of this great place.

We have frequented this eatery, in all it's various guises, for well over 10 years now, so when we saw it had reopened following the enforced closure due to the Pandemic, we booked a table immediately... ...first impressions were that the restaurant has received a refreshing makeover; gone are the awkward attempts to cater to, and occupy, whole families who should really go to McDonald's if their kids want to play while they eat. Instead the daytime ambience is now grown up, light and airy, with pleasant decor, and comfortable furniture. It will interesting to see how it fares in the evening. At first glance, the menu DOES seem perhaps limited, and a touch expensive; until the food arrives in front of you! We had a small glass of House Red each, which was VERY acceptable, followed by a generous selection of breads, quality olive oil with balsamic vinegar, and olives. That was the first surprise... ...when the main courses arrived, we were literally blown away! What initially seemed expensive for what it appeared to be, turned out to be the kind of food you would easily pay double for elsewhere! Perfectly cooked, with a sublime combination of flavours and textures, in portion sizes that were neither under, nor over, whelming, and thankfully left room for dessert! Because the desserts were equally well thought out, executed and presented! 😋 Now to nitpick: The biggest criticism I can offer is the lack of information as to what you can expect, until it is put on the table in front of you! This place REALLY deserves to be full every day! They HAVE to get that out there... Secondly, and this is a personal bugbear of mine, I hate Staff cleaning around me while I'm enjoying my food. I hate it in McDonald's when they spray the table next to mine, and all I can smell is cleaning product, and I hate it when they sweep up around my feet! I hate it when they mop the floors in local cafés, and all I can smell is disinfectant! I don't care if you DO want to go home as soon as the place closes, mop the floors after you lock the doors! Equally, I was a little perturbed when a hand held vacuum appeared at the table to hoover up the crumbs from our entreé! Wait until we've gone, then do it quietly with a cloth! I don't want to hear it at a table behind me either! By the same token, I appreciate that you want the place to look pristine for each customer, but sweeping off and replacing a large tablecloth makes you feel like you're eating in someone's kitchen while they do their laundry! Use smaller top layers that you can fold and remove DISCREETLY! And turn the nice music down a little... None of which has put us off though, we WILL be going back shortly to try out the Sunday Roast. If the initial impression is anything to go by, I can't wait...😎 UPDATE: The Sundays Roasts are LOVELY 😋

We live in a small town and although we have lots of cafes there are none that we repeatedly want to go to. Then we discovered The Village shop and Cafe. We had lunch. I am having problems with my appetite but they were happy to give us an extra plate so I could eat some of my husband's lunch. I actually are more here than usual. It is as delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful and there was a lovely friendly atmosphere. We plan to make it a weekly visit whenever possible. It was only my Husband and I that went but noticed families and dogs were there. We loved it.
