The Scullery at Hurlston Hall in West Lancashire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Had a great lunch with my friend. The scullery is a pleasant setting with smiley fiendly staff. Oh and food was good too!

Another great morning at the scullery. There were 5 of us for a late breakfast and the staff couldn't do enough for us! I had the full English which was delicious, as usual! And my son had the pancakes which also looked, and tasted, amazing! My other 3 guests hadn't been before and they said they would definitely be back! Thanx again xx

I honestly don’t know how to tell you how bad the scullery is, we’ve been several times and everytime something goes wrong, we go back as it’s local and the views are stunning, and keep thinking surely it will be better, today was the last time. The service is chaotic, there are so many staff but it’s just seemingly a social event for them because there’s no actual service, they let you order things they’ve ran out of and don’t tell you, don’t listen to drink orders, bring you things you haven’t ordered forget things you have, it’s just a complete shambles. Cannot recommend less.

Lovely Setting and Nice Meal although the service was quite slow. My wife had the Sunday Roast Lamb which she thoroughly enjoyed. I had the ribe eye steak which was good but not rare enough which i asked for. The chips, mushrooms and tomato were very good. The best part though is the waiter Luis from Portugal who makes you feel so special and is so funny and is an absolute credit to Hurlston Hall.

I took a friend for lunch on 7/6 thinking it would be a beautiful setting and great food….The setting was beautiful and we were show to a front window table. Ordered two drinks…white wine and lemonade, and a coke. White wine and soda arrived with a tea? Placed our order for lunch waitress returns, one of the items not available today (she had forgotten), re-order the burger. This arrives on a.small oblong plate and all the chips slide off on delivery. No offer of replacement just told sorry they usually have a napkin under to stop them sliding off?! Coleslaw was forgotten and had to be requested. Waitress asked for our choice of sauces but we had almost finished by the time they arrived. Another waitress passed us multiple times asking us if we ordered various drinks even though all the tables are numbered (reminded us of Julie Walter’s and the soup sketch). We ordered puddings but again had to ask what the crumble/cheesecake was when the waitress came back for our order, then there was no cheesecake after we had ordered, reordered the crumble with custard. This arrived again on oblong plates, crumble in a ramekin and custard in a jug, looks pretty but not practical, you can’t pour custard over as the ramekin is too full. Waited and waited for the bill and eventually got up and paid at the till. So many silly things wrong that could easily be fixed by attention to detail. Beautiful setting but an average lunch and awful service.

Unfortunately the scullery has gone down hill from what it previously was when it first opened. We waited almost 1 hour for 2 salads, a pizza, and a starter, which was surprising as the restaurant was near empty. The salad was not seasoned and lacked dressing and the pizza toppings were haphazardly thrown on. The kitchen staff seemed pre-occupied with other tasks (i.e taking phone calls and eating) rather than preparing food. The atmosphere in the restaurant was also chaotic as chairs were being vacuum cleaned while guests were dining which was slightly off putting. Due to this, the restaurant area was in disarray and very messy with chairs everywhere. Unfortunately the whole experience was very disappointing from both food to service.

Lamb shank was excellent the cheese board over the top so much on the board I had to leave quite a lot

Visited The Scullery with family to celebrate a Birthday, service and food were fantastic! Would recommend! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Lovely restaurant with beautiful views over the golf course Our group of 5 could not fault the food . Everything was really nice. The staff were very friendly and attentive checking everything was ok and asking if we needed anything else. Always smiling there was a lady called Sandra and a younger girl called Abi they are both very good at what they do Even the chef who was in the open kitchen smiled and said hello when we arrived We will definitely be back again.

Went yesterday for Easter Sunday and had a lovely roast dinner. Roast was beautiful. However my husband ordered steak pie chips and peas with a gravy. This arrived on a board with hardly any room for manoeuvre to place the chips and did not like the idea of pouring gravy over a board. We asked for a plate and was given a small cold plate by a sulky waitress. I called her back over and asked her to place dinner on a hot dinner plate. This was taken away with a flip remark to me that they were always presented on a board. His dinner was returned back to him but had gone cold, he didn't tell me this until we got home as he didn't want to hold everybody up. Wine was also late arriving to have with our dinner. I spoke to supervisor called Lorraine who was lovely and very helpful and agreed it wasn't a good idea to serve a gravy on a board and apologised for wine arriving late. She was very pleasant and helpful. The only other thing I would say is that there were a lot of young girls who a lot of the time were huddled together having a chat and spending time at the till with their backs to everybody so we were left waiting each time we wanted something and sometimes when you thought you had somebody's eye they just ignored you. My husband does not want to return but hopefully things will improve as I know there's been a big staff change and we did stop going once before after the refurbishment and being regulars for years and had many good times in both bistro and the events rooms upstairs. He also being a player of golf and used to be a member.

Fantastic food, great service and a beautiful setting. Would highly recommend

We went as a family group for Mother's Day. Louis the restaurant manager was very helpful from start to finish and accommodated us to a table we requested. The service was very good and the food (Roast Dinners) were wonderful. Everything that came out of the kitchen was hot and satisfying. Brilliant! 🌟

Great experience eating at Hurlston Hall. The food was served well, and delicious! The staff were attentive without being over the top.

Had an amazing time in the scullery tonight for a friend's birthday... there were 9 of us in total and the staff couldn't do enough for us... gorgeous roast, I've had lovely meals there before but never had the roast...we all would highly recommend...booking a table is a must, I've never seen it so busy!!!

Visited the scullery today for dinner. The food was great as was the service, We we're looked after by Abbi and Gabby who we're brilliant 👏.

Food was fantastic and topped off with fabulous service! Table of 16 for a Birthday party and we were looked after superbly. Went above and beyond to ensure allergies were catered for. Credit to the staff as Hurslton has improved immeasurably in the last 6 months. Keep it up!

Fabulous meal again in the scullery. The new menu is fantastic and full of different choices. Gambas pil pil was amazing. Thank you so much to all the staff for a lovely evening xxx

No staff, one waitress serving drinks, taking orders, across the bar and the restaurant The meal was below average. cold chips, an omelette with barely any filling.. Will not entertain any guests here again.

We had a comedy of errors, and we did finally get our meals and drinks. It seems the poor young waitresses didn't have a supervisor.

Beautiful food as always, amazing team,great service, and freshly made food. Staff are all great. Give it a try 😀 we have been a few times now and will definitely be back 😋

Met a friend for light lunch today . Ordered the Superfood Salad . Should have contained, quinoa , beetroot , spinach, sunflower seeds and B-road beans . When it arrived it was lettuce leaves, broccoli and avocado . 5 elements of a salad missing and replaced with my worst nightmare - avocado. No consultation about the missing items or the replacement . The staff were very apologetic and it was removed from our bill . Very disappointed that such basic salad items were not available .

Booked for my sons 15th birthday for 8 of us. I am a member so love this place anyway but I cannot thank all of the staff enough who served us last night and the lady I spoke to in the morning who arranged the most perfect table with a gorgeous view for us. Food was fab, service was fab and I cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you so much and thank you for singing happy birthday to my son - such as special touch :)

Went in for lunch, the manager said he had a few staffing problems. May mean a 30 minute wait for food. Ok we sat at a table. DIRTY TABLE. He said he would sort out our drinks. 30 minutes later! Still a DIRTY TABLE! No drinks, no order taken. Especially NO EYE CONTACT from any staff members! Golfers seemed to come in and get served straight away! Yes I know it’s a golf club! Appalling behavior! They obviously didn’t intend to serve us at all! Left, spoke to female staff member who had totally ignored us all the time we were there. WILL NOT BE BACK!

Always good here both food and service

We have a regular breakfast club at the Scullery every Monday morning with about 8 friends, I just want to commend Luis the front of house manager. Nothing is too much trouble, he is always very obliging and very attentive, but this morning he was overloaded with customers wanting to be served, but he wasn't phased and was extremely professional in his approach to inpatient customers. It was a joy to watch him in action. We love our Monday mornings and bacon butties . Long may it continue. We had a 3 hour session today putting the world to rights in beautiful surroundings.

We had a great family meal on Friday, my partner even commented that the Hurlston Burger was the best burger he had had. Pizza are a bit hit as well, the BBQ chicken pizza was delicious, many thanks to the chefs. Kids were entertained with coloring and word searches. Staff were great and attentive and nothing was to much trouble, we look forward to coming back soon.

Not normally one for writing reviews but I couldn’t not this time. We normally come at least once a month as the service is outstanding the staff are so chatty it makes our day. This will be the last visit for a while as we was just about to leave after a great meal and we witnessed a chef needlessly swearing at one of the waitresses. Such a shame as we really enjoy coming here for the good food and staff.

Hidden gem great food great staff lovely views

We went here as a family for Easter Sunday lunch having been the previous year and thoroughly enjoyed it. However this year was completely different . Firstly it lacked atmosphere being only a few tables of guests . The meal took a while to arrive but when it did it was dreadful and inedible . We opted for the roast lamb as there was no other choice except for a vegetarian option. The Yorkshire pudding was stone cold and burned, the lamb was undercooked and very fatty and some of the vegetables were undercooked . To summarise it looked awful on the plates. Looking round at the few other tables everyone felt the same as there was so much food left on everyone's plates. They advertised there being a face painter for the children , which there werent . There were 2 girl entertainers who did their best to entertain the children. To sum up I feel that it was a waste of nearly £400.00 for our party and certainly won't be going anymore.

Payed a visit to the scullery, and whilst I could not fault the food or the service, the managers disgusting attitude toward the staff made our experience unbearable. The manager ‘Lee Williams’ I believe, spoke to the young waitress in such a disrespectful and patronising manner that it not only upset my party, but I could see other parties around me being made uncomfortable. We shall not be returning whilst this man is still employed, which is such a shame as we really enjoyed our meal however wont put up with that behaviour from management.

We went for my mum's birthday the food was lovely, the steak was perfection. We watched the sunset outside with drinks and went in for dinner. Our host Luis was very attentive the service was fantastic.

Gorgeous food and a lovely atmosphere, definitely will be recommending

Food and service was great deffo recommend

Gorgeous food, lovely atmosphere and of course friendly staff will definitely be back

Very relaxing atmosphere. Food was amazing and staff very friendly, we will definitely be back.

Great food and service amazing staff off course

Excellent service, food was ok, nice setting with views of golf course.

Lovely staff ,great atmosphere and food. A fun place to go.

Sons Birthday meal this evening at Hurlston Hall. Absolutely brilliant. The food was excellent,well done to the Chef. Service from Liam was exemplary. The unknown impromptu Birthday dessert at the end was a lovely touch. If your looking for a venue in a superb location, wedding reception, meeting then this place is a must. 10 out 10

Booked for 5 online. No mention of a limited menu. Arrived to find a menu of pizza or sandwiches. Poor show scullery. Appreciate these are difficult times but if you‘re only proving very basic foods, at least say so. Staff couldn’t have been less bothered.

Since new management the service as gone down hillHad to wait 35 minutes for our drinks .At a price of £18 for fish and chips I expect much better and faster service , more staff needed The only thing going for it at the moment is beautiful setting and decor

Great food great staff and excellent service. Have had our anniversary dinner last week. It was just fantastic! Very high level of food. If you want to try the best Italian food, go there.

Went for dinner on Ladies Night. Had the Mexican Fillet Steak which was delicious as was the Chocolate Fondant dessert. Problem was the service, which was truly awful. We had to keep reminding the staff we were still waiting, they kept forgetting what we had ordered and we waited ages for drinks.They were very busy, which was also a worry in the middle of a pandemic, when the restaurant was full. Would have felt more comfortable if the staff wore masks. Not much social distancing when people were moving around. The toilets were very busy and not very clean.Having said all that, we will try again when the Eat Out to Help Out deal ends.

Wow!! First time in ages we have been back to Hurlston hall Scullery. We were supposed to be getting married June 2020 but it was cancelled and postponed due to Covid. We decided to try ignite some excitement and take my Dad for a meal for his wedding anniversary. What a great night, the food and service was excellent, the attention we received was first class. Massive thanks to Lee, Lee (bar), Chelsea, Natasha and all the team for making our night out so enjoyable. We look forward to you overseeing our wedding next June. Tony & Lynne xx

Had Saturday lunch here with friends. Not sure what I expected, but it wasn’t what it is. Menu very basic, sandwiches, burgers, fish and chips etc. The service was really friendly, waiter was great. Major minus was watching one of the chefs squeeze a bit of dressing or something onto there fingers and taste it - totally normal I’m sure, but then without washing/sanitising his hands I watched him handle fish and chips and place on a plate. Waiter was under some kind of incentive to get people to become a member, even when I explained we lived too far away, he continued with his script. Once we didn’t sign up the service almost vanished. I wouldn’t return.

Visited on discounted night and although busy ..staff where very attentive.Food excellent quality and all the better for discounted rate.Yes I was a little concerned about other reviews but I wasnt dissapointed.Staff worked really hard to make your evening pleasurable.

The girls and I have just spent a fabulous evening eating, drinking and basically having a wonderful time at the scullery. Food fantastic not one complaint from anyone from the group and because it was a Wednesday night ladies drank for free (bonus). With the choice of wine, cocktails, prosecco, gin and add to that the 50% scheme come the time to ask for the bill we were shocked at how little was left to pay.I can not recommend this place enough. I have eaten here on several occasions prior to lockdown however a new menu and new staff since has elevated it to a whole new level. The staff who are so hard working, funny and attentive go out of their way to make your time/meal out special. Towards the end of our meal a couple of our lovely waiters even gave us a lesson in making the perfect rose using a napkin and showed us a couple of mind blowing card tricks .Ten out of ten and let's do it again same time next week x x

Eat Out to Help Out! £10.20 for 3 plates of food including a Full English! Cathy in The Scullery was brilliant, so lovely and friendly. Food and service were brilliant. We will definitely be returning.

Went to the Scullery for Breakfast with my friend. We were greeted at the door by a lovely lady. I explained to her I was a bit apprehensive after reading a few bad reviews, but I can honestly say, I could not fault a thing from the minute we walked in to the minute we left. The service, food, cleanliness and space. All excellent . Thank you all very much. It just shows, you should always try for yourself

Absolutely awful service! We had to wait over half an hour for our table which we had pre booked and were just left in a waiting area and forgotten about with not even a menu to look at. After eventually getting seated inside in a corner after booking an outdoor table, we then had a very long wait to order and receive our food. All items on the menu were £15 which we presumed would then be discounted for the eat out to help out scheme, when we got our bill we were told this was already half price and the mains are actually £30 each! The food was pub quality and definitely not worth even the £15 we paid! Service is extremely slow and very disappointing.No staff seemed to be sticking to any social distancing measures. We won't be returning.

I visited this restaurant recently with a group of 7 friends to take advantage of the 50% off - funded by the tax payer. On arrival we were only presented with the “all day menu” which was basically pizzas, burgers, sandwiches etc. - not what we had anticipated. What we did notice was the incredible hike in prices - for instance - a cheese burger with chips was priced at £19, meaning we pay £9.50. A portion of chips alone was £5 (£2.50 to pay) These prices almost doubled from the normal price (also taking in to account the large reduction in VAT payable on food)meaning the restaurant would claim back the same from the tax payer. I appreciate that restaurants have had a poor year to date but this pricing policy is far out of the spirit of this government’s policy to assist their business. We indicated that we would go somewhere else and were offered the a la carte menu which was more acceptably priced. The afternoon teas were also reasonably priced.

Went for a meal with some family as we thought it would be a nice quiet place to social distance and have some lunch. We ordered a drink which we had to re-ask for 3 times before we got it. 2 mains arrived and it was 10 minutes before the last one arrived. Staff didn’t wear any PPE and didn’t social distance. We also witnessed a local “celebrity” having the menu read out to him whilst we were waiting over 25 minutes for a drink? Unfair in my opinion. Don’t think we’ll be back unless the staff are retrained and the management is reassessed and it seems like an absolute mess!

Visited the scullery on tuesday 11th Aug steak night with my wife, The atmosphere was great the service was great and the food was great. We will definitely be going back soon. The restaurant was packed was great to see so many people having a great time. Well done hurlston hall

Sat at the table next to the previous review .. while the ladies comments about the billing are correct and the main courses were £15.00 "already reduced " ... The man in man bun and beard was in my opinion helpful and mannerly while fighting a loosing battling trying to explain the bosses ideas to an irate customer... The staff were very pleasant and tried extremely hard to make everyone happy but unprotected ... The price was what I expected from a golf club but under the scheme that we were taking advantage of we felt misguided but however we shan't be returning ... At a different establishment tonite and all staff are wearing face masks ...

Came for a meal out with the family as a special treat thinking it would be more affordable with the Eat Out to Help Out scheme. I booked online and the only information that came up was that Tuesday night was Steak Night. We were stuck in a corner table and despite having loads of staff, the service was slow. Both food and drink took a long time to come. None of the staff wore visors and there was no social distancing- they kept leaning over us to serve which I wasn’t comfortable with. The steaks were nice but came with hardly any chips which were lukewarm, as were the veg. My son had a sausage burger (?!) which came with a lot more chips which were piping hot so he obviously got a fresh batch. It was a hot night and we were constantly batting away flies which was not pleasant. When we were presented with the bill, it was a lot more than we expected. I asked for the bill to be explained and was told that just the EOHO logo meant that all the prices were already discounted and the first round of drinks were complimentary. Nowhere on the menu did it say either of those things. I spoke to the man with the beard and man bun and he did nothing but argue with me and he didn’t apologise for any misunderstanding. He kept saying “it’s on the website “ but as my husband pointed out later, we weren’t ordering from the website. By the end, I was getting more and more upset but he kept arguing his point with me when I just wanted him to move aside so that I could leave. We have taken advantage of this offer at quite a few other places and the experience has always been pleasant so this was extremely disappointing. Needless to say, we won’t be returning.The Portuguese brothers who were serving us were as pleasant as ever though - the Management needs to learn from them.

Let me start by saying before lockdown this was one of our regular places to eat - at least 2-3 times per month.It was the first place we have tried again after lockdown and we took my elderly parents as I felt it would be “safe”The restaurant does feel safe in terms of space, however the waiters don’t wear masks or visas and don’t socially distance. The bar star was packed with golfers and I mean packed. Done at the bar, most sitting and ZERO social distance.The Walters constantly walked through them. There is no point in having the tables set out ok if the bar isn’t and the waiters don’t care!The service was dire.No kids menu (“we haven’t got round to sorting it yet”)! Come in you have been shut for months The food was OK.The bill was eye watering for what we had.Sadly we will not be going back....

Restaurant review Last night My husband and I had dinner in the scullery. We really enjoyed it. Good food, service and a nice atmosphere. It was suitably busy. There were plenty of good staff - mostly new. I had asked for a quiet table inside and that’s what we had. Lots of space around ours so no partition needed - others inside did have Screens behind them. From a covid point of view, there was sanitiser at the door, no masks were worn by the waiters, so make your own minds up about that. Food was very good, starters I had calamari my husband had mussels. Mains I had forester chicken (delicious!) husband has burger (needed a bit of a side salad) we shared chocolate fondant pud. All were good and very well presented. We also had a nice bottle of wine. We dined as part of the Eat our to help out scheme so the discount was welcomed. The restaurant setting is beautiful We will go again

Decided to try this place again after their grand re-opening after lockdown as I expected it to have improved, but it hasn’t. Food is ridiculously overpriced for the pub quality and I’m sorry but the service (I mean what service?) does not even attempt to compensate in the slightest. My thoughts are they are trying to be a low rent Moor Hall but let’s face it, Hurlston are a golf centre and gym, not high end restaurant and it’d be better if they went back to what they used to do. I’d return if they did, it once had a friendly atmosphere and good quality, with a bit higher than average price and that worked. Whatever they are they are trying to do now simply doesn’t.

We used to eat here all the time.I am talking 2-4 times per week (Before Lockdown). My god how has it gone so bad.I thought having the Lockdown might have helped them sort out all the issues they were having but it is just as bad.The prices have sky rocketed and the food has gone down hill.The service is awful. You are left to wait for everything. Very rarely do you get anyone coming over to check if everything is alright but this is probably due to the fact that they are running the place on a skeleton crew now. All of the familiar faces have gone except for Leigh who still manages to talk to everyone and leave the rest of the staff to do everything.How can such a great place hit the floor so badly and lose so many great staff (where they treated so badly they had to leave).Surely the owners have to see what is happening.I for one will not be returning until they rectify the issues.

We have eaten here three times since it reopened. Food and service excellent! Well done Leigh and team.

Really good food fabulous , well done with the new changes just one little thing service can be improved .

Used to love this place, the food was always great. Visited today expecting a lovely lunch, however it has gone down hill. The service was slow, staff did not seem bothered or attentive at all. Waited 15 mins for drinks! When the food arrived (chicken and avocado salad and a prawn and avocado salad) I was very disappointed. They charge £12 per salad however it was just chicken avocado and lettuce leaves and the same for the prawn salad. Not what you expect when paying £12. None of the staff checked in on us or even asked how the food was when collecting plates. I gave the feedback but no apology was given. Such a shame because I used to love this place but I will not be returning.

visited here several times to eat as it is a lovely venue however very disappointed on my last recent visit . Service was slow , food & drinks overpriced & the quality of food was poor & basic. Ordered 2 Buddha bowls with halloumi & prawns , both of which were very dry & contents inadequate for the prices charged. Would not recommend, Previous good standards have sadly dropped.

Booked for 2 people, waited over an hour for food, lovely when it finally came, we were offered free drink& or coffee, which we accepted, but not much in compensation, we were informed only 2 chefs working, but the service is really slow,at the best of times. for what it offers it is pricey.

Place and room = excellentFood = excellentBar = expensiveService = needs attentionWe had a good night overall but the bar area is woeful.Number of staff was plentiful but most were obviously new and in need of training. They were perfectly pleasant but sadly out of their depth.Bar had 4 staff most of the time, but only one till and one card machine.There were two tills but only one operating! It appeared that everytime an order was placed each member of staff seemed to have to sign in which was time consuming.

I visit here every so often, it was always a nice place to eat at, friendly staff, pleasant atmosphere etc. But on my recent visits, the staff seem disinterested, the ambience has been just off, flat, there are a lot of new staff who just seem to want to take your order, slap your meal down and walk off. Needless to say I'll be voting with my feet.

Not very good,we were all disappointed with our meals. Overated and overpriced too. Will not be recommending

The wait staff was uninformed and uninterested. The female server that brought our menus was not aware of basic information about the menu. She told us that the roast menu was on our table when in fact it was on a board at the entrance of the restaurant and that we had to leave our table to read it.The meats were precooked obviously and reheated but overcooked. The charred octopus was drowning in sauce

Booked for Sunday lunch after seeing their new 3 meat Sunday lunch on Facebook. We were not disappointed. We all selected the 3 meats which was beef, pork & turkey; all were juicy and succulent. The meat was served with roast potatos, selection of vegetables, 2 cocktail sausages and a lovely homemade yorkshire pudding and a lovely gravy made with the meat juices. It was only after we finished that we thought we should have taken a photo!!Our server said that the 3 meat Sunday lunch is available for a trial period but definitely needs to stay on the menu. We will be back.

I have wanted to visit for such a long time and tonight after inviting our daughter and son in law I was very disappointed! We were shown to our table and just left! No one offered us menus or came to take a drink order!! Other people came in after us and were given menus and drinks orders taken! We had to ask for menus and drinks after sitting waiting for what seemed like an age!! We had to ask what the soup was and told that if we wanted the roast it would be half an hr before they could tell us what the meat was as they had been very busy and had run out and had to put another joint in the oven!! The staff demeanour left a lot to be desired and like they couldn’t be bothered to serve us, like as if they couldn’t wait for home time!! I wanted to have an enjoyable experience as I was hoping to book a large party for my mother in laws significant birthday in December but I’m afraid tonight’s experience has made me think otherwise!

I went here on Saturday night 28th September with my family, in a party of 16. Everything was perfect, service was exceptional and the food was absolutely delicious. The staff couldn’t do enough for us. It was my brothers birthday and they made a special dessert for him and sang with us. I’ve been here for lunch too and that was also brilliant.

Very disappointed with the afternoon tea served at the Scullary. Despite the lovely setting the quality and quantity of the food provided was dismal. The sandwiches were dried up and had been made for some time. They looked unappetizing as the bread was curled, the crusts had been left on and the fillings were poor quality. The scone was obviously shop bought and the cream was not clotted and of a dubious nature with no butter. The 'cakes' were of the Makro/Costco frozen variety. At £15 a head I found this very poor value for money and not of sufficient quantity. I have enjoyed afternoon teas far better at numerous establishments. For such a prestigious place I would expect the chef to make the componants on site and not bought it in

Hurlston Hall is a very nice place.You can see the friuts of the recent huge investment.Food quite good but disappointed by the small plates which are not much larger than side plates. The hot food portions were dismal served by two girls who appeared to wish they were not there. They were just miserable in demeaner. As you know customer service is important and i felt let down by very small portions and no presence of management. Unfortunate that such a nice place was not given justice.

I have visited the Scullery for breakfast and have always enjoyed the food. Yesterday I ordered sausage with my meal and they were dreadful. It is a pity as it is a great place to dine.

Called in here a few times for a coffee with my mum who now lives in a local care home. She has difficulties eating and wont eat out but loves to come here for a coffee and a breath of fresh air. We always sit out at the back overlooking the golf course and the lovely gardens. Its such a beautiful sheltered spot.All the staff are SO helpful and go the extra mile to make our visit such a pleasant one. I've also been here with friends for lunch as it's so nice and the food is fab . Thank you all.

Came here for lunch and wasn’t disappointed. Friendly service, nice views across the golf course, oh and a really good menu.We went for the Thai Chicken with garlic noodles - delicious. Also, the Sweet Potato Vegan burger - unusual and deceivingly moist. No complaints about the food, drinks or service. An enjoyable meal was had by all.

Lovely lunch with friends. Enjoyed the new menu. Relaxed atmosphere and good service. Will look forward to returning in the warmer weather to sit on the terrace.

Enjoyed a lovely Mother's Day lunch in the scullery. Food good and atmosphere great. Spoilt at end by a long wait for the bill. Also every table got a bill on a plate with chocolate mints. We got a piece of paper thrown on the table with no mints. Not sure why, perhaps we didn't deserve them! We had spent a fair bit on 3 courses and drinks each so more than many but still no chocolate mints. Just an error on the bill for us. Sadly that resulted in no tip being left.

Visited here for the 2nd time for Sunday lunch and have to say, not that great, the service is exceptionally slow, we were sat at our table for 15mins before we were asked what we'd like to drink!! When the food arrived the pork was full of fat, roast potatoes and veg etc is good but poor quality meat.

Had a family meal for six. Table booked in advance and no problem there. Service was friendly and attentive, but not over the top. Food came in good time despite it being quite busy. All had two courses, and most were happy except the people who had the slow cooked brisket, which was almost like an old fashioned potato hash. Anyway, overall a good experience and good food. Not too expensive either.

I have been a few times in the last month or so. Each time I have had a salad. The first time I had the duck and my companion had chicken Caesar. Both were with a good amount of dressing and tasted delicious. The last two times, however, I have had the chicken Caesar and then the Thai chicken salads and both were a bit of a disappointment. There was almost no dressing on each of the salads so they were both dry. The chicken Caesar was fairly tasteless and whilst the Thai chicken pieces was delicious there was almost no dressing on the salad making it very dry. Each could have been served as a wrap which did have dressings - and one of my companions had and said was delicious, but more of this (or at least some) was needed for mine. Another person had a steak pie which she enjoyed. Each time my companions have said they would definitely go back, and it is a lovely setting so I keep returning. But I’ll definitely query the dressings next time!!

We love coming for breakfast at Hurlston Hall, the breakfast is always delicious however every time we have been, every time, it takes such a long time. It doesn’t seem to matter how many people are in the restaurant. It’s such a shame, as we are having second thoughts now in coming. Please, please, try and make it a quicker service.

Great place, great food, great staff what more can I say. The food is delicious. We have been coming here for quite a while it’s recently improved greatly.

Visited with my friend on a Saturday night and had a really wonderful meal. Nothing to fault about the food really enjoyed it the only thing I would say is the service was very slow considering it was really quiet. It’s a very chilled Saturday night wouldn’t come here if I wanted more of an upbeat atmosphere but the waiters are very sociable and pleasant so will be returning :)

This would be a lovely venue for a tiptop restaurant experience for special occasions, housed as it is by a golf course, and far away from the main road. It's also decorated nicely. Sadly, we didn't enjoy our recent pre-Christmas visit, with food missing from the menu, an unhelpful, inexperienced waiter (who didn't know the menu very well, nor how to pronounce the names of the wine), and poorly prepared food when it actually arrived.

We’ve visited twice in the space of a month, once for breakfast and once for lunch. Warm, friendly welcome both times. Nice atmosphere. Good menu choice and very nice food even if the breakfast menu was a little restricted. Views from the restaurant onto the golf course are lovely, even though it was raining on both of our visits.

Great place for lunch. good choice on menu & food freshly cooked. have been 4 times & great each time. staff are very nice too

Went for lunch with friends on a lovely sunny day. Haven’t been in a long time to Hurlston Hall. Was suitable impressed with lunch. Had a Thai chicken wrap with came with a side salad and REAL chips! Not frozen. Followed by a scrumptious meringue dessert. Outlook was lovely over the golf course especially being a lovely sunny day. Was too hot to eat outside but with the large doors and windows open we felt like we were outside. Would definitely go back.

Decided to give this place a spin for lunch in roasting day. Location is a little out of the way and you will need to drive. Fantastic views of the gold course and option of sitting inside or outside, in the shade or in the sum. Very clean and the service was excellent. I opted for posh finger butty which came with really nice homemade chips and proper fish. The Mrs opted for steak sandwich which was good but I'd opted for mine choice if/when we return. We had a little one and children's menu offered good value too.

I frequently eat at the restaraunt for both lunch and evening meal. Beautiful setting,varied menu and very pleasant staff. Good value for your money.

We found a very nice table and were delighted the air con was on as the heat outside was terrific. The service was excellent and we ordered drinks then perused the menu. We ordered 4 different mains which were really delicious. The wine and beer were very good too and we are returning very soon. Well done Hurlston, the Scullery is a lovely setting and we enjoyed the views of the golf course from our table.

What an absolutely fab place to hold a pow wow of the bridesmaids. There were 6 of us plus 2 little ones so we pre ordered breakfasts for the adults and sausage and mash for the little ones. We arrived in dribs and drabs but were taken straight to our table and offered drinks while we waited for everyone to arrive, they even put colouring books and felts on the table for the kids. The food was absolutely delicious and quite reasonably priced. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff who made sure that our every whim was catered for. The place was spotlessly clean and the views were amazing. Will definitely be recommending this place to all my friends.

A very enjoyable place for lunch or a snack - coffee and cake is good value and very tasty. Overlooks the golf course, so the location is rural but not far off the man road. Plenty of parking too.

Arrived at 10am, having booked a table for the family, we ordered our food not long after. After bringing the wrong food to our table, which they didn’t seem to bothered about, we then waited another half an hour, by this time we had ordered over an hour ago. We then checked where our food was, only to be responded to in a way that was extremely rude, they went to check with the kitchen and our food hadn’t even started to be cooked! They came over to explain that they had run out of eggs and tried to say that we had only ordered half an hour ago, even though tables who had come in a lot later than us were eating their food, that contained eggs. After this terrible experience, I would quite happily say that I will never be going back to this poor excuse of a restaurant, where customer service was the least of their problems. Absolutely terrible.

This place has the potential to be great but isn’t. Service is poor. Wait times too long. Staff don’t seem to be proactive about the delays. Kitchen staff can’t handle orders that ask for slight changes to an order. The golf club is of high calibre and this place is not up to the standard. shame. Needs improvement.

This place has gone downhill, used to be fantastic but lately it has got worse, from waiting time, quality of food and portion sizes, it's embarrassing for what they charge, a pie with hardly any filling, a spoon of veg and about 6/7 chips, afraid to say won't be hurrying back.

I have been a member of Hurleston hall leisure club for many years and adore the location, Have been to wonderful weddings and special occasions over the years. However on Saturday we went for tea with friends to the Scullery this must be the fourth time in twelve months the first time it was absolutely delightful then each time we’ve gone since it’s gone downhill! Firstly there weren’t many people in when we entered But we waited over 10 mins for someone to ask what we would like to drink! Food when it arrived looked basic and bland, my husband and my friend ordered desserts, she had ordered Eton mess it was a disgrace, anyhow what really annoyed me there was a guy I think he was the chef with a bushy beard just loose surely in these days of high food standards it should of had a band around it and netted. Ordinarily I would not of written a review like this but they really need to make improvements.

We’d been promising ourselves a breakfast at the Scullery Hurlston Hall for a while and went there recently. Great setting with lovely panoramic views of the golf course and players teeing off, which was fun! The staff were friendly and courteous. We all chose the Scullery breakfast and it didn’t disappoint. Lovely locally sourced food prepared well and we all really enjoyed it. A great venue for dining and functions. We’ll be back.....

We took my mother for lunch for her birthday and had a lovely meal in excellent surroundings. The golf course provides an excellent backdrop from this very light and airy space and the food was very good and reasonably priced.Being able to park at the door and come step free to the table was a massive bonus for my ageing mother.

We have eaten here many times, Nice surrounds with views over the golf coarse, very clean and neat. The food is average....... my gammon was over cooked this time. I think maybe a " retrain " of some of the waitress's would not come a miss.
