It's an odd place, it's taken away the human interaction. You order by phone and so there is no chat about what is good etc.... Love the fact there x number of different restaurants under one roof. But I am sorry to say, my veggie burger was very dry - even after adding a load of mayo.

We visited Shelter Hall on Easter Sunday for the first time and were really impressed. The food and drinks were really good, and came to the table really quickly - but what made it stand out was the service we received. Every single staff member was friendly and efficient. Special shoutout to Morgan who greeted us, explained how the ordering worked, and even came back to our table after we’d sat down to offer us a nicer table near a window. Absolutely outstanding service, as we’d already ordered food to the original table, she arranged for it to be diverted to the new table without stress. Thank you so much.

The environment was great. The Food was just ok. Sauces served in paper cups had been standing for hours and had a hard layer on top. Service was hopeless. We had to stop the waiters that were walking around with our orders not finding the table they had to bring it to. Some of my cocktail was spilled on the floor before it was given to me. They never collected the empty food trays that we ended up moving to an empty table an hour after finishing. Even though they promised they'd remove them as they were bringing more wine.

Recently went here last Saturday and came away feeling extremely underwhelmed from the experience. Tables weren't clean, lukewarm food and clearly short staff. To top it all off ordering food was a complete nightmare, nothing but constant errors even whilst using the WiFi provided by the restaurant. When orders are appearing to be rejected due items being out of stock they shouldn't be processed through leading to multiple charges. A member of staff reassured me that I would get a refund as it was a system error. However I haven't seen nor heard from the contact email that is provided on shelter halls website. Just avoid.

Have visited on many occasions but this time I really doubt I will return. We had a group of friends and one birthday to celebrate. We were the second table to sing happy birthday and then were pounced upon by the bar manager and advised we were not allowed to sing as it might disturb other guests night out! The table next to us said they had a birthday but wouldn’t sing as they don’t want to be told off in such an embarrassing way. No surprise the table of guys who had sung nothing was said yet the bar manager felt he could have a go at ladies. Thought this sort off sexism was not prevalent in Brighton of all places but obviously we were wrong! Really disappointed.

La joven que hace frente de la casa es una joya y muy bueno siempre comienza una visita bien. Generalmente confiamos en disfrutar de nuestra visita, pero la mayoría de nuestra comida proviene de coqfighter que son geniales. Esta vez probamos Saltio Mexicano que encontramos por debajo de la media cerviz tenía demasiados cítricos y los Tacos de Cerdo eran muy sosos, así que no volvería a comer allí. Probamos el nuevo Stakehaus también y esto fue peor mi comida se quemó y desafortunadamente lo arruinó, ya que era todo lo que podía probar, así que tenía que obtener un reembolso que eran muy buenos. Pero basándome en mi experiencia no volvería a usarlo. Me gusta como funciona aquí pero la comida decepcionante hoy solo mi chico está bien y eso fue porque todo lo que tenía era coqgighters Mientras que la comida estaba por debajo de nuestras expectativas el servicio era bueno.

Aquí están mis asuntos clave. - me hicieron hacer cola durante 30 minutos a pesar de que teníamos una reserva (tenía dos niños pequeños conmigo tan en serio no es ideal) -Mi comida llegó 45 minutos después de haber pedido. Cuando llegó mi comida, todos a mi mesa habían terminado de comer. Durante mi espera pedí dos tragos. El primero vino rápido y pedí la misma bebida de nuevo y tardé 20 minutos en llegar. -Estaba en mi segunda rebanada de pizza y mi segunda bebida ni siquiera había llegado y una camarera nos dijo que necesitarían la mesa de vuelta en 20 minutos.

De hecho, planeamos un almuerzo ligero, ya que ya teníamos planes importantes para la cena. Pero entonces mi esposa vio una receta de pizza en Yeatie Boys y fueron vendidos. Como decidimos compartir pedimos la pizza de 20 pulgadas; con la receta Born Slippy. . . OMG cuando llegó casi cubría toda la mesa. Advertencia. También lo pedí con una cobertura de jamón italiano opcional que realmente hizo la pizza. También tuvimos un par de rondas de cervezas mientras luchábamos con esta pizza. Ganamos, y logramos terminarlo, aunque solo unas pocas costras. Esta fue nuestra primera visita, no lo habíamos planeado y afortunadamente llegamos justo al comienzo de la prisa de la hora del almuerzo un domingo, así que nos dieron atbel sin reservar ni esperar. Recomiendo reservar en días/horas populares. Este es un gran lugar con una amplia selección de opciones de comida y bebida; está justo en la playa con algunas vistas impresionantes del Canal de la Mancha. Pronto volveremos a ser tontos.
