Paint The Town Red in Melton

Warm, friendly atmosphere with an open fire. Will definitely be returning.

I've been coming here regularly since it opened and they do the best coffee. Sadly the service on my last 2 visits has been lacking. On Sunday I came with a friend for Sunday lunch. The girl took our order and the drinks arrived within 10 mins or so. We finished our drinks and still no sign of any food. I had a receipt with the time showing so, after 45 mins, I asked how much longer our food would be. The waitress then said there is a 45 min wait for food. I said we were not told this when we ordered which would have been helpful. The girl said she would push our order through and to be fair gave us a free drink. The food arrived after 1 hour. Today I went in for coffee and cake. This time it was the coffee that was very slow. I had finished my cake and was just sat waiting for the coffee which arrived after 25 mins. Today wasn't particularly busy but I would never come during my lunch hour from work to eat because of how slow the service is. I still love the place and will come when I have plenty if time but it appears there are staffing issues.

Not so good for us when having the breakfast im afraid today. We had a really lovely meal lunchtime on friday and so we decided to treat ourselves to a brekkie in the tea room before we left the site and unfortunately we were very disapointed on this occasion. I wanted the kids breakfast chose 5 options as i dont like too much meat and was told no sorry i cant i would have to buy a normal breakfast and not eat what i dont want and that would have been a waste of my money and after seeing our friends breakfast im glad we never had that either, over cooked sausages, dry toast, solid eggs, so i ended up having to get an egg cob which when it came out the cob even though it had 3 eggs in it was very dry and chewey and it was only the fact the eggs were runny that it made it palatable. Hubby had the scrambled eggs with beans and whilst his food was ok there was no butter or spread offered on or for any of these items and the food was dry. Overall on this occasion the meal was not that good so would not spend on that again but the rest of the stay was ok.

Popped in this morning for a coffee with my daughter. We were greeted by Andy, oh my goodness, what a lovely chap! He is friendly, courteous and funny! He made us feel extremely welcome and relaxed. Keep up the good work 👏 🤩

Googled a dog friendly pub for lunch as we were in the area. The website stated 12pm opening on Wednesday (the day we were there), but the pub was closed. The sign on the door said they opened at 12pm too. Everything was locked and someone from the business over the road said they opened at 4pm. Please update your opening times when they change.
