Having already tried breakfast at the neighbouring Willowbrook garden centre, we thought we would give the Blackdown breakfast a try. When we found the entrance we had to walk through all the departments till we finally arrived at the restaurant section. Despite the centre having several in-store clothing shops, the restaurant was definitely not on a par with other ‘destination’ centres. The breakfast itself was quite good, though toast was not offered as an option to fried bread, neither was there a choice as to how the eggs were cooked. The thing that struck me was that the restaurant was tired looking and not as clean as it could have been. Despite it being fairly early in the day, several tables had crumbs on them. The chrome frames of the tables were covered in smears and the backs of the leatherette chairs had marks on them. The overall effect was of ‘transport cafe’ rather than somewhere to ‘go for coffee/lunch’. A little bit of effort however could make this a nice place.

This should have been a 5 Star Review, but on our last night the hotel had an Open Mic Jazz Night which was pretty loud. That might have reduced it to 4 Stars overall. However I went downstairs to close the through-door from the stairwell/Reception area to the kitchen which was funneling the noise up to the rooms. Unfortunately the door was jammed OPEN and I couldn't move it - and it had a plate on it saying Fire Door Keep Shut. I can't give zero Stars so I'm afraid it gets a no-brainer 1 Star.

BroadoakExtremely disappointed - Pint of Beer was off, No dairy alternative other than almond milk for tea, but the worst was a piece of plastic found in the Cauliflower Soup - other person confirmed it was clear plastic- raised issues with the ‘manager’ who took away the plastic and said it was ‘onion’… now I know difference between Onion and Plastic as unfortunately I did have it in my mouth before deciding it was inedible. He wouldn’t have it though - I had to leave the soup ( only half eaten) - I asked for it to be reflected in the bill and he took off the cup of tea! Will not be going back again as have had problems in the past but like to support local but never as bad as this experience.
