Very long wait for food. Told after sometime told there had been a problem with the tills and the order may not have gone to the kitchen. Luckily the order had when it arrived 1 meal was wrong one the steak was over cooked. Overall very poor meal not worth the wait. Staff were not very helpful just said nothing she can do when the technology goes down. Just goes to show how much we depend on it now. Would not come back not been a great experience meal was not cheap

Came here with friends for our evening meal was greeted at host stand by a young lady who sat us opposite the bar said hazel would be over to take our order. We ordered our drinks and food. Meal was spot on. Staff all very friendly and the manager on the bar was lovely she was called rose. We got the name of the young lady that sat us aswell. She was called Megan. We will return. Good value for money.

We were staying at Premier Inn and thought we could at the restaurant, sounds reasonable right? Wrong First night we got seated just after 6pm it took over an hour for the food to arrive, there were only 2 staff on duty they seemed run off their feet even though the restaurant was not even a quarter full We heard them telling other guests who arrived we wont be able to take your order for half an hour, i can only assume this is because i it would register in their system as being sat there for a long time This seems like frozen food so we didnt understand why it takes so long unless perhaps there is only 1 chef 2nd night we arrived just before 7.30 to be told its “going on for half eight and we close at 9 so we cant fit you in l” Staff seem harassed and tired, Premier Inn look after your core business and your staff levels, its not that people dont want to eat there, but that you get turned away! We ended up going around the corner to Casa Pedro for some tasty mexican food

I ended up in Kendal on business and was put in the Premier Inn attached by the work HQ. What a pleasant surprise the Wakefield Arms was. Joanne, James, Saul and Mark who were all working on the evening were such a good laugh and made sure I was looked after and nothing was too much trouble, which as a lone female away from home was great and did not leave me feeling lonely. The lasagne was delicious and they allowed me to swap the salad for chips. The profiterole sundae was just as good. The following morning the breakfast was a great way to start my day before a long day at work and Mark and Beth were busy but again nothing was too much trouble. The cooked breakfast was piping hot and set me up for the day. A big thumbs up from me

Worst manager ever we come in and go to the counter to get a table the manager takes us to a table and we ask him if he could give us another table (most of the restaurant was empty) he turns round and throws the menus on another table and says this table Is the only one we can do in the worst tone ever.

El personal muy amable y un gran servicio. Comimos en el menú del almuerzo, una excelente relación calidad-precio y una buena variedad de comidas para elegir. El café estaba muy caliente en un día frío. Nuestras comidas llegaron rápidamente y nos sorprendió el tamaño de las raciones, que eran mucho más grandes de lo que esperábamos. Nuestras selecciones fueron el huevo y papas fritas Gammon y la Ciabatta tostada con pollo y tocino y papas fritas. Nuestra única queja sería que el Ciabatta no estaba realmente caliente y que el pan no se había tostado adecuadamente, lo que lo hacía un poco empapado, habría sido delicioso si hubiera sido un poco más caliente. - ¡Supusimos que la Ciabatta se había dejado tirada esperando que se cocinara el pescado!

We stayed at the Premier Inn which is attached to this pub. Had a meal on our first evening and the service was friendly and efficient, food was good. Visited with a group of friends just after 9pm for a coffee and were greeted by very poor customer service. We were told that the group of 8 couldn't have coffee because the machine had been turned off. Staff only relented after a complaint was put in and the hot chocolate wasn't drinkable. A larger group of around 15 we're also told they couldn't have coffee not 5 minutes after we had been served. The attitude of the staff was unacceptable, the restaurant is apparently open until 10.30pm, I would expect to be able to get a coffee at any time during opening hours. We won't be coming back which is a shame given how great the service was the first time we came in.

Attended bar for drinks with friends staying in accommodation just after 9pm. We were told very bluntly by the girl behind bar that the coffee machine was off despite the fact that other people were still eating. Our friends pointing out that it was not closing advertised closing time and threatening to call the manager resulted in the machine being switched on again and some poorly made drinks being delivered along with a pointed comment that the machine was being switched off again. Ten minutes later a large group of peole arrived also wanting hot drinks and they received the same rude and unhelpful attitude. As residents they went up to their room to make their own drinks to bring back down again. Appalling service. We won't bother going back.

This evening (24th) we went to Table Table, having pre booked a table. We intended to choose off the Christmas menu, my choice was to be the rump steak, only to be told no steaks where available, also no vegetation choice, no roast potatoes, so that put the turkey dinner with roast potatoes also out of bounds. It is hard to believe that 3 of the 5 dishes on the menu where not available on Christmas Eve.

Went with party of 20+ last night for dinner that had been pre-ordered but first course took almost an hour to arrive. This was followed by another hours' wait for the main course. When we had finished this we waited for a further hour for puddings but as they failed to arrive we had to leave. When remaining members of our party complained to the manager he told them never to return. I would like the manager to know we had already made that decision.

Both times I’ve been the service has been slow and nothing to write home about. It’s rarely busy which makes the slow service a surprise. Staff don’t seem to know what to do, and can’t control their tempers - would benefit from some hospitality training if possible to avoid these awkward encounters and the many bad reviews concerning staff

Been here a few times in the past & always had a really nice meal & staff always really pleasant. I was visiting WG Hospital on Thursday from Lancaster,It was a "No brainer" where we would have lunch. Parked in the Premier in car park. which is conjoined with Wakefield Arms. Tried the restaurant door but it was locked, we could see people in there so we knocked but no one came, the staff just turned away. My husband tried the door again, pushing it with his shoulder, to no avail. so we had to walk right round the side of the building to get to another door. It was pouring down too, which didn't help our mood. i told one of the staff that the main door was locked, but she said "No it's not!" very sarcastically. I wasn't going to argue, so just sat down. Got our menus & ordered drinks. 10 minutes passed & no one came to take our order. The 3 girls staff were behind the bar at the other end of the room just chatting, My husband went to the bar & asked if we could order our food. He was told "No! we would have to wait until someone came to our table", then promptly went back chatting to her mates. We were furious. Another 3-4 minutes passed then someone came to our table & asked if were ready to order. The cheek! We ordered the chicken with bacon & cheese in barbecue sauce and gammon & eggs. We only had an hour in the car park so we were concious of all the time being wasted.When the food came, the chicken was black under the bacon & the bbq sauce was burned bitter, both our chips were cold & undercooked. We were so disappointed as food had always been good here. The portion size too was meagre. Even our 10yr old grandchild wouldn't have been full. It was awful! We went to the till & told the girl there how bad it was but she just shrugged & said sorry. We told her that the meals had always been good there and she said it must have been a while ago. What does this say to you? No one was even interested. I really wish we had walked out before we'd ordered the food. But it will definitely be the last time we go there. £28 down the drain!

Como acabábamos de llegar y nos alojábamos en el Premier Inn, decidimos utilizar el restaurante contiguo, Table Table, para la cena. No queríamos la oferta de comida del hotel, así que no habíamos reservado una mesa, así que cuando fuimos al restaurante nos recibió un camarero que nos dijo que solo aceptaban reservas de hotel entre las 6:30 y las 8:30, pero él Nos cabría, aunque el restaurante no estaba lleno. El servicio era lento y la comida era comida típica de pub. Pensé que este era un lugar que cualquiera podría usar, pero debido a los comentarios que hicimos, decidimos que no volveríamos a comer allí ya que había otros lugares para comer en la zona.

Comimos aquí anoche y ambos estuvimos de acuerdo en que era el restaurante más extraño en el que hemos estado. Mostrado a una mesa entonces nada. Así que fui a la barra después de 10 minutos para conseguir una bebida para que me dijeran que no podía porque era el servicio de mesa. 10 minutos más tarde lograron agarrar a alguien para pedir bebidas. 10 minutos después los conseguí. 30 minutos para tomar una copa. La comida principal estaba bien, pero tardó una hora en llegar. Luego otra hora para el desierto. Una pareja en la mesa de al lado logró obtener 3 platos más rápido que nuestro 1, por lo que debe ser lo que obtienes como mesero / mesero. La comida estaba bien, pero el servicio era inexistente. Cuando finalmente recibimos la cuenta estaba mal. No volvería aquí de nuevo.

The food hopwever was along time coming no fault of the waiter, and when it did arrive rthe burgers would have been better from macdonalds and cheaper. They were dry and over cooked and the fries were so few could not fill a child let alone an adult. Not value for money would not go back in the future.

So have been in a few times and across the board, the food is good, reasonably priced and service is excellent.

We have stayed in the adjoining Premier Inn many times as it is really good yet it is now let down by the awful adjoining table table bar / restaurant. The breakfast staff are lovely but the buffet is really poor and doesn’t offer all the choices as advertised . The food is poor quality and not as good as when we have previously stayed. We tried to find a seat in the evening to relax but were not allowed to use the main restaurant area which was so disappointing. We were told that we had to stick to a very small dirty area as the tables were being set up for breakfast. This premier inn and its staff are excellent but the restaurant is so very poor and lets it down .

Booked a table online for 8 people last night. On arrival, our table was ready and waiting for us, and we were looked after all evening by Saul. He couldn't have been any more helpful and charming, and brought our food and drinks promptly, always with a smile and always had time for a laugh or joke with us. We have had poor service in the past, but things had improved greatly since our last visit, and Saul is an asset to the company. We'd give him 100% for helpfulness and friendliness.

This restaurant is linked to the premier inn we stayed in, it was our 1st visit to the lake district and had been pleasantly surprised by the very helpful staff at premier inn. This continued when we went for Breakfast at table tale the next morning, with Andy the manager on duty (although he was a locum taken from a different site)- Andy made us very welcome and firm friends with the 8 year old with us and also made the time to come and talk to us to see what we were doing that day and give us some advice as to where to visit, even though it was a busy time for him. The following morning was even busier and Andy was again on duty and took it all in his stride and nothing seemed too much bother for him. Thank you Andy. However, our view was damped when we returned to eat dinner and was seated and placed our order, only for the female Manager on duty at that time to return after we had had our drinks for 10 minutes to explain that the ONLY vegan main option on the menu was sold out and this should have been explained when we were placing the order. I was told that the only alternative was a salad. My company at the table, worked for premier inn and told me that the female manager should have gone off to find more alternatives as other restaurants would have done this and after a day of walking, a salad was not really going to satisfy. Sadly we did not return for dinner again.

As we were staying in the attached Premier Inn, this restaurant was perfect to end our busy day of walking, especially with a tired 2 year old. We didn't book, and had to wait 45 minutes for a table, but that was fine as we were able to return to our room. We arrived at our booking time to a dithering manager who barely looked us in the eye. He showed us to our table but didn't explain anything about ordering. In 'pubs' it is often unclear whether you order at the table or at the bar... it's simple communication like this that can really improve customer experience! After about 10 mins, just as we were about to order at the bar, a waiter came over and took our order. We ordered a pie, a burger, and a pasta meatballs for a child. The order took over 45 minutes to arrive. One thing that really irritates me (grumpy parent rant) is when restaurants bring the adult meals before the small children's... cue 2 year old tears when his meal hasn't arrived and he is now surrounded by giant burger and chips that aren't his. Then, cue further tears when it turns out the waiter has ordered a child's starter of 4 measley,dry meatballs on a plate with cucumber sticks. Why would I order a child's starter without a main?! We had no apology for this, the meal was taken away and returned 10 minutes later. No apology, no 'we are just cooking this, apologies for the wait'. No communication. I now have a grumpy child, with no meatballs, eating all my chips! Grrr.

The beers wereOK, the chicken wings were passable and the potato dippers were quite tasty. The fish and chips took over 40 mins to arrive and the batter looked over cooked, but the fish inside was not. The Chips had clearly been cooked well in advance and reheated under a grill, making them dry and woolly. I left mine on the plate. Would not eat here again.

Nos alojamos en el adyacente Premier Inn y tenía la opción de desayuno en tres mañanas. Un hotel de buen nivel, sirve rápida y eficientemente. Pensamos que la opción continental no era tan bueno como otros lugares sólo con rodajas de frutas, en lugar de Apple Banana etc. El problema principal era la comida de la noche. El menú es el tipo habitual en una cadena con mucha variedad. La primera noche sentados enseguida, por 'Olivia' una camarera alegre y servicial. La comida era exactamente como esperábamos, no hay problemas. En la segunda noche, muy ocupado y le pedí a volver en 30 minutos. Esperamos pero estamos olvidado. Finalmente conseguimos una mesa.

A group of four of us ate a late lunch here on a weekday. The staff were top class, friendly, welcoming and helpful (without prompting they recommended an alternative wine option which saved us money on the deal). The food quality was first class thoughout. (between us we tried the rack of ribs....steaks and chicken dishes). All were very nicely cooked and tasty. There is also a very good range of puds and, again, they were all nicely presented and delicious. Unusually (in my experience at Table Tables across the UK) service was prompt and friendly and we were made to feel very much 'at home. Lots to commend and worth eating here when in Kendal.

Yesterday (Tuesday) we decided to utilise a 50% off main meals voucherWe were able to choose a pleasant table, the drinks order was taken and delivered with commendable speed.Two main courses were chosen and ordered. In due course they appeared.The fish dish was said to be surprisingly good.Unfortunately the meat dish was served with a CONCRETE dumplingBeing a quiet day, it took some time to draw the attention of the staff to this, but eventually a perfect dumpling was produced!The crepe desert was served tepid - but we decided to just eat it, pay the bill, and go.It defies belief that food is despatched from a kitchen which is totally inedible.

Fair enough but then when my fish and chips turned up the mushey peas were ice cold.No One ever came back, not to ask about food, not to take plates away and not even to let us ask for the bill.So i had to go to the bar to pay, woman did ask if everything was ok. Maybe I should just of said, but then again should I have had to put up with all the bad service and food in the first place.Avoid this place.

Very wet miserable night and we were just looking for a quick meal before Kendal torchlight parade.My husband and I ordered the sausage ( to be cooked well done) and mash , and the veg lasagne.Both meals were perfect . The sausages were cooked to my liking, the mash creamy and soft and the green beans still green !! And al dente.The spinach and ricotta lasagne was good too .The only disappointing thing was we wanted these 2 meals on the deal that came with a bottle of wine . 2 meals and a bottle for £20. We were informed that there was no wine available to go with this offer but we could buy 2 glasses of a dearer wine and get the rest of the bottle for free !??? I would have thought if the offer was advertised - as it was , which was what drew us in, then it would have to be honoured !We ended up having 2 pints of beer instead so what we were hoping was to be a £20 meal turned into a £26 one .Never the less the food was fab. We will return.

We ate dinner on a Sunday - the beef was inedible and went back, the lamb rump was sliced (!) and cold, that went back too. Only the beef was swapped, so the rest of the food was cold, lamb had been microwaved and turned into a fatty chewy hard mess. I swapped for a burger which was good. So 2 blobs rating was increased to 3. Then we came to breakfast. Oh dear. Costa machine was broken and you need to order your cooked breakfast - which took 20 minutes until we were asked. Meanwhile, the breakfast buffet area was in complete chaos, no glasses, water, orange juice, bread, mugs, plates (pick any 2 missing items at any given moment)... the pile of plates dumped on the side when I asked for more hadn't been washed. Staff were dismissive and miserable. The restaurant was only 1/4 full and a big queue of people that they kept seating (and waiting) 50 minutes after arriving, the breakfast turned up. Hot plates, bacon stone cold. Oh and random items that we hadn't ordered or the correct quantities. A million miles from our usual PI experience

We had breakfast and evening meal each day during our four night stay at the Premier Inn, and were very happy with the standard of food served. The staff were excellent, in particular Emily who made us feel so welcome and looked after us so well. The only complaint being that the hot water for tea at breakfast was supplied in flasks, and was just not hot enough for tea. The hot food was freshly cooked to order and was delicious.Overall, a very pleasant dining experience and good value for money.

I would have given them 3 and a half as its better than 3 but not a 4. As you know Premier Inns are pretty bland but this one was nice as it goes and taking into context you are in the back of beyond. The staff were all young female students but were all very friendly and helpful and all good at their jobs, the food came on time and even though the menu is as predictable as any Premier Inn type place it tasted good ( I had spinash and ricotto lasagne) and wasnt too expensive. The place was clean and chilled if a bit dull. Its prob the best place in a small dull town

This is the Restaurant portion of the Premier Inn Kendal Central (The Wakefield Arms). The food was good and not overly expensive . The Steak Diane was good. Reasonably priced bar as well. Air conditioned. Very friendly and helpful staff. You can sign up for a discount card which gives you points for each pound you spend on food and drink redeemable in Table Table at a later date. Suitable for all age ranges and children. A popular venue from what I could observe.

As we have dined at other table table before we thought this would be good when booking with premier Inn next door. Dinner service was slow. fish was overcooked and still had the skin on underneath the batter yuck. Rest of food was ok, but we dined elsewhere for the rest of our stay. Breakfast was inconsistent. Orders were wrong from kitchen. Service wasn't great. Continental layout was very messy, spillages everywhere, used napkins lying around, side plates and food not being topped up. Not a high standard like we've had in table table before.

We had breakfast booked with premier and it was served in table table,Wakefield arms, yuk, chewy tasteless bacon, oily fried eggs tasted odd, scrabbled eggs sloppy and undercooked, not good, we ate here Sunday evening meal prior too tasting breakfast on Monday, I ordered chicken forestie hubby had calf liver and bacon, both served on a bed or creamy mash, topped with crispy caramelised onions, they arrived, warm, and nothing like the description, the onions were soggy, the chicken wasn't white it had probably been griddles with the steaks etc, our desserts were salted apple crumble and custard, and baked vanilla cheese cake, the crumble, was undercooked and mushy, the cheesecake however was tasty, probably bough in. £32 and was average, so with the breakfast e perience, will not be eating here again. We have rated at other table tables at premier inns and had excellent food, this one is below average.The staff are friendly enough but need a little fine tuning as they have no customer service skills unless your a local

The staff were really friendly here but the table service thing doesn't work! We came here thinking this would be a good option as it was joined to our hotel, the food wasn't bad, but the ribs were very dry and despite spending £51 for food and drink for 2 people We still managed an apple pie, a mcflurry and 4 burgers straight after we left. This place isn't horrific but it was a big disappointment

Didn't even get served stood at bar for over ten minutes when I left staff where sat round corner I could hear polishing cutlery which is fair enough as it was quiet but that quiet you would think someone would be on the bar having worked in hospitality my self the bar should be always supervised. Although first time I went here service was great I was served by a young lad I would of given 5 stars that time

although the service was relatively rapid, I feel the chips were not thoroughly cooked, as some tasted raw, but hot, the peas looked like they had been thrown on the plate, and the tub of tartare sauce could have been better presented.The most uncomfortable situation was the standard of décor and cleanliness, as there were marks on the wall (which may have been food or drink spills but could have been wiped off) there were bits of either food debris of general dust etc near the table leg, and lots of cobwebs about, either a damn good clean is required, as it cannot be for the ambiance. Also on paying the bill I noticed a space for a tip, and if I had not had to pay £2-00 for one hours parking to eat, I might have given it as a tip.

This restaurant is located next to the Premier Inn and it is a very convenient place. Food is good, without being exceptional.

We try very hard with the Wakefield Arms in Kendal where the food and the service are first class. Sadfly the other clients make for a sad visit in that the restaurant is very popular at lunchtime with mothers, young children and prams which make for a visit which is anything but relaxed. We struck lucky today in that there was but one Mum with two children. Her area was covered with books and chips and she not only marched a screaming child around but actually invaded the mens toilet to shout at one child who was sheltering there. With this sort of performance, we just cannot cope and eating elsewhere really must be our aim.

We went here for a meal , it was close to the end of the day and it was obvious they did not want us to order food , they wanted to clean down and set for breakfast , we stopped for a drink instead . A member of staff sat on the next table with a bowl of hot water and started rinsing cutlery , "unbelievable" short of saying please leave now they could not have made it more obvious we were not wanted . Never again

Great friendly and attentive service on the two occasions we visited the pub (During our stay at the premier inn next door).The food was nice (not great),the only real downside was it became very expensive for a family of four once a few drinks were added.

Called in for a drink and was charged £7.50 for a small wine and a pint. Far too much, got "pestered twice" for food and there was no tables for us to sit at

Staying for a weekend away in the premier inn. We decided to book a table as weren't sure how busy it would be for a friday night. We arrived early and got a table easily. Quickly served at the bar with food and drink order. Waited about 20 minutes for the food to arrive which was nice and hot and well prepared. The pub itself is very clean and welcoming with friendly staff. Cumberland real ale is worth a try, very recommended!

We had a meal at this Table Table pub as we were staying in the Premier Inn next door and didn't realise how close we were to other restaurants in the area. Had we known there were so many restaurants within walking distance of the hotel we would not have eaten here.We ordered a sharing platter to start. Everything on the platter was actually pretty good, except for the coleslaw which tasted like it had gone off. We mentioned this to the server, who checked with the kitchen then returned to our table and assured us that the coleslaw was fine. We were not convinced! Our mains took a while to arrive (despite it not being particularly busy) and when they did come they were lukewarm and my partner's double steak burger with cheese and bacon had been topped with cranberry sauce! The server took this back to the kitchen and another burger was sent out. Fortunately this burger was a huge improvement and the price of that meal was taken off our bill. I had ordered the paprika chicken and bbq rib combo, which was pretty disappointing and also served with the funky tasting coleslaw :( My daughter had the curry, which was mediocre at best.We weren't expecting anything spectacular from this chain pub but we had a very disappointing experience on this visit and wouldn't eat here again. If you are staying in the Premier Inn, the high street is just round the corner and there are plenty of other places to eat - we ate at Deja Vu the following night. The food was lovely and the prices are similar to Table Table!

I arrived with my girlfriend, father and two good friends to Table Table in Kendal. Firstly, it's important to know that The Wakefield Arms (the name of the bar/restaurant, operating under the Table Table brand) has nothing to do with the Premier Inn that it is built alongside. Having arrived at the Premier Inn, we headed down to have a few drinks in The Wakefield Arms bar. There is a fairly good selection of lagers, ales, wines and the usual soft drinks which we enjoyed for a couple of hours after a long drive. As my girlfriend got positively peckish whilst we waited for a few other friends, she ordered some chicken goujons that were delivered in ample time to our table. The chicken was surprisingly succulent and we quickly polished them off. Once our friends had arrived, we went into the restaurant area and were given the menu. We didn't expect to be blown away but we wanted a meal that did the job. I ordered a steak that I asked to be cooked medium. Unfortunately, my steak was much more on the well done side. However, it still tasted rather good so I carried on eating. Everybody else left a clean plate and we were happy with our meal for the price we paid. This is where the rating of 'poor' is justified. Our waitress knocked a full pint of lager over the table and soaked my girlfriend. We all know that a restaurant is not an assault course, we also know that accidents can happen and of course this was an accident. What was not an accident is the way that our waitress handled the incident. There was no offer of an apology, nor was there any sense of haste to clear the mess. This meant that I had to leave my table with my other, now more damp, better half; go up to the Premier Inn hotel room to get changed. We then had to ask the Premier Inn staff to wash the sodden clothing, the staff were more than accommodating. Once we were dry and had a change of clothes on our backs, we headed back downstairs to our table. The bill came and there was still no apology or gesture of goodwill. It should not be our job to ask for the duty manager to sort the problem, however, once he did arrive at our table, he did offer a gesture of goodwill and knocked an amount off our bill. He handled the situation much better than his understudy; but did need a few nudges in the right direction from ourselves.Needless to say, we did not eat at the restaurant on an evening again. We did utilise the facilities for breakfast and the staff during morning service were very friendly.I would not recommend The Wakefield Arms for an evening meal, although if you are in the Premier Inn hotel and need a quick breakfast that isn't going to break the bank, don't hesitate.

After feeling a bit strapped for places to eat a late lunch we visited on Friday, needless to say really couldn't fault it. It was relatively quiet which meant our waiter was attentive and efficient. Food was good and an absolute bargain for portion size. Will visit again

Great service and lovely staff but sadly very slow to serve,although we did rock up wth no reservation on a Friday night. The food was third rate, we did the 3 courses for £12.99 I'm not sure if they use different food for this but it was so poor, cheap white bread with the soup, black gammon due to a dirty grill I assume and also microwaved peas and dry thin bite fish for the fish and chips. Real shame because in the past we've had nice meals here but rarely first rate.

Arrived at 6:00 pm, the service was very slow and took ages to get served - drinks and food. Meals were expensive and not good. Don't mind paying for good food but this certainly wasn't good. We certainly won't be going again - we waited over half an hour between the starter and main.

I've eaten in Table Table many many times, sometimes it's great but occasionally it's not so good. This time we arrived at 7.00 pm, the special offer time was past and it was really quiet and we chose a table for two in a quiet corner. Probationer Lee was our waiter and he quickly sorted out the drinks and took our food order. On this occasion the food was fine and service was friendly and attentive. Lee was specially helpful to two elderly Ladies on the next table and showed that he had a future in this business.We found that we had enjoyed our visit and would certainly revisit.

As this was the onsite restaurant for the premier inn we visited for our evening meal on the first night only to be sorely disappointed with the slow service, dirty glasses, table and a quiche so hard it almost took my filling out. Sadly we had already prepaid for breakfast and in the morning were again kept waiting only to end up playing 'hunt the clean table' while the waitress made excuses rather than cleaned one. Breakfast fare was what you would expect but the hot area with tissues tied round the hotplate lids and dirty tablecloths were unappealing. I think the final insult was being presented with 2 poached eggs that resembled shrivelled testicles and the waitress with an excuse for everything saying that's how premier inn cook them . When I explained that the poached eggs the previous day had been fine I was informed it was luck of the draw as to the chef, an apology would have gone better! Overall my advice is to give this dirty hole a wide birth.

Went early July - 4 of us in all, on Thursday early evening. Surprised to see so many tables 'reserved' but got a table without a problem. Orders given OK, from the standard menu. But the food took ages to arrive - it wasn't that busy but they didn't see to cope that well with the demand at peak time.The food was OK when it arrived, but nothing special. Prices reasonable.

Conveniently located next to the Premier Inn. There were veggie options on the menu at a reasonable price but when we ordered some were not available. The same with some soft drinks. The food was OK in the main though one of the options we chose had soggy pastry below and burnt on top - not good. We were offered a dessert on the house by way of recompense. We reserved a table but someone else was seated there when we came to take our seats, so not sure there is a system.Parking is a problem - you pay for either 2 hours or 24 hours.

Amazing as always. We come here regularly and it’s always been great. The staff are amazing, and so is the food and service. Very dog friendly. No rush to leave as my son and I played a game of cards. Even when it was super busy. Thank you

Used to be a little bit different, a little bit higher quality in ingredients and in beer offerings. Now it’s just the same downgrade Peroni to Nastro etc. Save a few pence but turns the product into the same as everywhere else instead of that small cut above. Such a shame.

The staff here are amazing. They are friendly and helpful. I have been coming here for a while and have to say they work very hard at this branch as there is usually only 1 member of staff working on their own doing everything which even when super busy they still keep smiling.
