Food was nice, but a little overcooked. Service was slow and a little disorganised. Not at all bad, but there are better places locally

Was here recently and food ok but service not good. Messaged later to book a table for Christmas. Told it was booked and had to pay a deposit. Happy to do this on my day off. Couple of days later, got a message to say table was given to someone else so no longer available. Contacted them by phone. Owner hung up on me when I told her that her customer service was poor.

We recently attended Smugglers Bar and Bistro for our Mothers/Grandmothers funeral and have nothing but good things to say about the service received. The food provided was excellent, and was well served by very professional waiting staff. Nothing at all was too much hassle for them and they took our unexpected early arrival in their stride and were very welcoming. Would highly recommend the restaurant for any occasion. Having also been in for dinner on another occasion, we can vouch for this too!

I don't like writing bad reviews however I feel this place needs a good shake. Food is sub standard. Hot wings - Frozen breaded wings deep fried with hot sauce thrown over the top. Not pleasant. Main- chicken stack- the chicken was not pleasant either frozen fillets are used or they are cooked way in advance and heated up in a microwave because they don't taste fresh and are chewy. Chips etc. very good making me think if you want a standard chippy style food then it might be ok. Desert- Pavlova with toffee sauce. This was the worst course of 3 poor courses. The meringue was raspberry with toffee sauce and Maltesers over it with ice cream. Who in their right mind puts raspberry meringue with toffee sauce. Revolting. Not cheap, standard priced but the crown jewel was when after we finished our drinks and asked for a jug of juice they charged £2.00 for it. £130 down the drain and I wont be back. There are much better alternatives not too far away and just a very disappointing meal. One of the members of staff also seemed to be giving another member of staff a very hard time which was not pleasant to watch.

Booked the bar for dinner for a 2pm reservation ,arrived at 2.05, waited 15mins for girl to acknowledge us so eventually got menu's. Ordered at 2.25, ordered starters and mains, one starter came out and no sign of the other... "3 garlic mushrooms" may I add!!! Miserable i would think! Anyway my stater never came! So we thought ok sure we will say nothing and wait om main! Well we waited n waited and still no sign , not one waitress came over to acknowledge or say sorry for the delay so we decided after 55mins to leave. Went up to pay for the mushrooms and the drink and the girl said well I didn't put your order into the kitchen until 2.25 to which I had to reply thats because it took u so long to come down to take the order in the first place! Absolute joke! Learn how to run a place! Will not return.

Myself, my husband and 2 children decided to go here for Father’s Day, have been here many time before which was great, however ever this time was far from that.. To start we were handed sticky menus with food on them & not a price to be seen... My husbands & kids meals was fine I ordered the chicken which was raw and the waitress took away my plate and came back to say the chef said it wasn’t raw (I can cook myself I know the difference between raw chicken & a vein!) but it would be knocked off the bill. Anyway started to order our deserts and the waitress said I’ll come back when the kids are ready, we were just in the middle of ordering, when she rudely interrupted.. 20 mins later passed & we decided to leave, don’t think the chicken was knocked of the bill as it was expensive however it’s hard to know when there was no price.. anyway they have certainly lost our custom.

La última vez que comimos aquí, que tenía pocas esperanzas y me sorprendió gratamente, así que estaba emocionado por volver. Debería haber mantenido mi esperanza bajo para mi segunda visita. No sabíamos que había un menú de almuerzo de domingo en contraposición a la carta, así que creo que fue el primer tema (no necesariamente el del restaurante, pero creo que marcan la pauta. ) No había opción vegetariana en el menú (en este día y edad). Cuando pregunté había un par de opciones opciones no obstante aburrido, pero. Nos informaron, ya que nos dieron los menús que no había carne a la izquierda. Después de pedir bebidas, nos informaron de que no tenían agua con gas a la izquierda u otras bebidas gaseosas, aparte de la coca-cola/Fanta etc. estándar Los vasos estaban sucias, la cubertería era grasiento. La comida era básica. Filetes eran cocidas por la orden. Me dieron una pasada pan naan junto con mi curry de verduras. Los postres eran decentes, pero cuando fuimos a pedir café, la máquina estaba rota. El ambiente era aburrido y la música estaba muy alta. . . demasiado ruidoso. Las camareras eran muy agradable y atento, que es lo único verdaderamente positivo que puedo decir. Es altamente improbable que volveré.

Went out for Father's Day and it seemed as if the crowd was to much we had our starters were excellent but then it went downhill from there had to wait over an hour for our mains which wasn't easy with an 18 month old and the food wasn't as good as it always is then had to wait over a half hour to get the table cleared after we asked for it to be done,wouldn't put me off going back just not on a busy day!!

Ive visited the Smugglers a fair few times in the last few years and have always been more than happy with the service and their food. Today was a complete disappointment to say the least, with it being fathers day i booked a table of 4 adults and one baby only to turn up and be told they had no highchairs left for my 1 year old!! Myself, my partner and my mother and father then had to wait a half hour before anyone came to take our order and we had to ask to be served our drinks. The drinks took 20 minutes to come and the starters a half hour, we then had to wait 20 for the table to be cleared and 45 minutes for our main course which was made up of wrong orders and overcooked chicken whilst my child was giving off due to being so hungry to then find her food inedible to say the least! My partner then had to go into the bar and get himself a drink when we were told someone would get us drinks in a minute to only not return. Overall it was a majorly disappointing evening with the only apolodys made being that they were busy (having 5 tables in) it will definitely be a very long time before me or my family return here again.

Booked a table for 7 for Sunday dinner and the premises is nice but the dinner was desperate no beef at 2 o clock for an hour ,potatoes were far too salty ,roast potatoes were watery you just wouldn't want to eat them ,desert was fresh fruit salad ,which consisted of half a thinly sliced apple in juice with a little piece of kiwi,had to return that it was a joke really so it's any wonder it was so quiet in there at a normally busy time of day .will not ever go back there again
