My wife and I had sunday lunch at this establishment for the first time. We booked easily online and got seated by a friendly staff member when we arrived. We ordered drinks by another friendly staff member and ordered starters and main courses.The food when it arrived looked and tasted lovely - We had potato skins, brushetta,roast beef and roast pork dinners.All the food was excellent and the service was prompt and friendly. We shall definitely return.

The venue was busy when we turned up but not overly crowded and it had a nice atmosphere. We still got seated straight away. We were asked if we wanted drinks as soon as we sat which was nice. Menu had lots of choice on it, it was hard to decide what to order. The food we chose was lovely and the portions were large. The staff were all very helpful and friendly and went out of their way to ask if we wanted any more drinks etc.

We go to the Prospect most weeks because it is special. We go mostly, but not always, for the Steak Night on Thursdays which is exceptional. Last night (Wednesday 25th September) we went to celebrate our 48th Wedding Anniversary and the staff went above and beyond to make it so special for us. We would like to thank Franco, the girls and all the kitchen staff for making this such a wonderful evening for us. John & Joy Skinner from Houghton le Spring. p.s. Try the mixed grill it's out of this world.

Food here is average, quite tasteless, added salt and pepper to my meal each visit. Pizzas loaded with rubbery cheese. Service is hit and miss, often have 3 or 4 different staff serving your table, have to catch someone to get more drinks, the bill, card machine, they always seem rushed. Decor is tired and scruffy. Smell of cigs drifting through from smoking area into dining room.

I had a 2 course lunchtime special that should have been £14.95 plus a glass of soda 70p total should have been £15.65. I was charged total £17.65 but charged full price minus £3.95. This is very misleading. I have added a photo of the bill showing that they charged £16.95 for 2 course but the menu states £14.95 for 2 course. I must apologise az my friend has just informed me of the price being £16 95 for 2 course but in my defence online the menu states £14.95 for 2 course

Visited as part of a birthday lunch, we chose meals from the happy hour lunch menu, had the pate with salad for starters, very tasty and salad dressing was delicious, all freshly made, main was the chorizo chicken pasta, loads of bits of chicken under the pasta and the sauce was creamy and spicy. All dishes freshly made and service was very good. We will be going back for the two steaks for £35 as the couple on the opposite table had that and it looked fantastic.

From the bar staff to the waiters, they were all so friendly and helpful, even letting one of our party take home a couple of the paper placemats that she took a shine to 🙂 We all ordered a beef dinner and it really was outstanding, one of the best I have had in a while. The portion size was huge, the meat cooked to perfection and the yorkies unreal! The addition of a huge bowl of mushy peas is always a hit for us, love it when places add these to a dinner! We had such a lovely afternoon here and can’t wait to return to try their weekday menu too!

Waited 35 minutes to have our food order taken. This was after we asked twice for someone to come see to us. Apparently only one person was “allocated” to taking food orders. Food was ok, but not worth the wait I’d say. It seems everytime we come, the wait time is lengthy. When the waiter allocated to food orders eventually made it to us, there was no apology - he asked how we were and I commented how I was hungry and there was the opportunity to say sorry for the wait (knowing they had been collared twice by us) but no…the response, “me too”. Not good enough.

We ordered a take away for delivery, and ordered it to be delivered at 8pm as we were due home just before then. Just eat then said it was was delayed until 9:20pm so we knew we had plenty of time. I received a call at 6:20pm saying they were outside. I apologised and said it was ordered for 8pm, we are not there to collect it. The driver apologised and said he would sort it. At around 8:15pm I rang up just to confirm that the food was still coming and a young girl answered and said she would find out. Suddenly a very rude and angry man came on the phone, he did not say who he was, and started actually shouting at me down the phone for refusing the order. I tried to explain the problem but he would not let me get a word in. He said on his end it did not say 8pm but I had the app open and it said 8pm on my end. I even tried to say it may be a just eat error but he would not listen. He was extremely aggressive. I asked to speak to someone less unpleasant so he put the young girl back on the phone, who was full of apologies and incredibly helpful. So I would like to thank her and point out how good she was considering how aggressive and unprofessional her colleague was. When the food was delivered the driver was lovely, and he did show the ticket that said 6:55pm (still later than they actually tried the first time) but I explained that I had triple checked and the app said 8pm. I absolutely think this was a just eat error and did not bother me in the slightest, these things happen. This review is based on the vile behaviour of one of the staff. This is the first time I've ever left a negative review for anything because I was so appalled by the way in which he spoke to me. We order from here regularly and enjoy the food, so I really hope the establishment get rid of this awful employee.
