Went to the Hennessy Newbury racecourse with friends and after a two hour drive from London are asking why did we bother. Not at all surprised the place was half empty as many people must have been here before and thought the same as us, how bad is this. Possibly the corporate scene has moved on as we are now being bombarded with Jockey Club emails asking us to go but at £125 per head we can eat in Michelin star restaurants for the same price and believe me after this KFC is looking good. First course disgusting, a rubbery chicken mousse with chorizo, bland white and tasteless. Mains were braised beef so salty it made our mouths water so was inedible and went back to be changed for the Guinea Fowl which was dry but edible but not enjoyable, deserts don’t even bother there just sugar. Possibly this is bought in catering at its worst even the bread was whiter than an advert for Ariel washing powder. I Guess that if we hadn’t spent £250 on champagne and wine no one here could actually sort it out or knew what could be done. We did get a discount of £96 but this couldn’t be refunded on the day so we’re now calling to sort that out. This place is getting quieter and is going the same way as Windsor racecourse where the restaurant is just as bad. I don’t know or care what other people eat or thought as that’s not my problem and I’m not interested in Newbury response as it’s the same old gumpf they troll out to everyone. Horse racing is fine but for gods sake sort out the restaurant and change the caterers as this is ridiculous pricing for what amounts to a sub standard meal for £250 excluding drinks, plus don’t send me emails asking for my opinion when it’s geared to corporates and not individuals who own or enjoy horse racing.

Amesbury Road WeyhillWe have been here and eaten probably six times this year and I absolutely rate it. The staff are always happy and helpful (especially the younger ones which I thought might be a bit surley)! The atmosphere was lovely and sometimes there is a big queue but hey that’s not the end of the world, if you want quick service go to McDonald’s (debatable I know!!) We last had an afternoon tea, which was lovely, the only thing I would suggest to put you above everyone else, is to provide a selection of sandwiches you can choose when ordering, I would have an afternoon tea again if I could have tuna or cheese! But I won’t as you don’t. The actual garden centre is way better than Rosebournes which was just a glorified gift shop with restaurant. The selection of plants and outdoor furniture etc is superb. Keep going Hillyers the Weyhill store has really benefited, although some of the Rosebourne staff you still have are a bit on the miserable side the newer staff are far more helpful, you are doing great!

Unit 14A Newbury Retail Park Pinchington LaneI was shopping at Newbury retail park. When I had finished I fancied a coffee so went into Starbucks. When I went to pay with cash I was told that they are cashless. I reluctantly paid with my card. I will not be returning. Costa on the same retail park is always busy and full of life. They are happy to take my cash.

39 Clayhill RdTonight I paid £9 for a cod and chips. The portion size was ridiculously small. What an utter was of money and cash only (wink wink) There was little no fish after peeling back the batter. Rip off!
