We were seated and were told we could order via our mobile and waited 15 minutes with no one approaching us. We finally decided to use the app, drinks came right away. Starters with 5 minutes. We waited 40 minutes for our mains, I ended up asking a staff member if we could get our mains, took another 10 minutes. Food was OK, steak was cooked as requested but cold.

Lunching with friends I’d not seen in a while. Four out of five of us decided on a sandwich, and one chose veggie ‘carvery’ option. We each paid separately (which, with hindsight, didnt *help?) the food was slow to come out, one at a time*, with a long gap in between! Four out of five of us had our food, most had been finished, and our friend had to go to enquire where the last sandwich was? It hadn’t shown up on the system, but that was rectified and re ordered. After another long wait, friend went to cancel her order as he had been waiting so long. She was refunded, but then food turned up. The quality of the sandwiches was awful, has been put onto a hot serving plate which had dried the bread so it was hard. Filling, sparse, and no butter, adding to dryness (apparently we were told you never butter bread for sandwiches?) Presentation non existent, served with about 8 chips, at £8.99, not what I’d expect. After reading your other reviews, lots at not good, and your ‘Standard Reply’ obviously is have no effect on improving your standards. You may as well not leave a reply, as it obviously means NOTHING. I will not be coming back.

I booked a table online only a few hours before we wanted to arrive. It was easy to get served at bar & order food. We didn't have to wait long to get our carvery. The food was excellent. Great choice of meats, potato but could do with few more vegetable choices. Very happy 😊 I only have 1 thing they could improve & that is a selling a diet lemonade such as 7up zero or sprite zero as not everyone likes coke.would still highly recommend this restaurant though.

Absolute rip off. 14.79 for a very few slivers of kebab meat. Rip off place. If you go to a proper kebab shop you get over ten time that at less price. Tasted good but absolutely a joke. I could understand if it was shish. Its a doner the cheapest meat. Disgrace they think they can do this to customers. If I knew they were going to be this mean I wouldnt have eaten here. And yes Id like a refund but I didn't come here to complain i came to relax not to get annoyed by mean business. After reading the negative reviews ill thibkntwice of where I dine in future. They didn't understand hospitality just profit. Will be in contact with head office

Food was a bit sub-par for the price. The main issue is that portion sizes are a bit small, particularly the burgers. I had the apple crumble for desert and it had an almost bitter taste to it. Staff were fine, and the place felt/looked clean. I wouldn't object to going again, equally it wouldn't be my first choice.

The food was a let down on this occasion, which is very disappointing as it is usually much better than this. We had a carvery each and there was not much food out when we went up to collect ours so we felt like we just had to make do with what was left. I had the chocolate fudge cake and I must admit it was disgusting and I couldn’t eat it.

We visited here for Sunday lunch and overall had a good experience. The staff were helpful and appeared to have everything under control given how busy it was. Unfortunately the table we were taken to hadn't been cleaned nor had the high chairs from the previous guests but this was sorted after we had asked a member of staff. The disappointing thing was the amount of meat on the carvery, all 4 people in our group commented individual as they returned to the table about how mean the chef was who carved the meat. He will clearly be getting his gross profit, we had never seen someone slice meat so thin, you could almost see through it and given how small the joints of meat were, 2 slices was a mean portion. At £13.99 it didn't represent good value.

We booked a table for 7 guests online and when we arrived we were left waiting for some time before being acknowledged by a member of staff, when they did greet us there seemed to be some confusion over our booking and we were told after some debating with another member of staff that we should “just wait at the bar” whilst they figured out our table arrangements. Whilst we were stood we were told by a member of the bar staff to join the queue which was considerably long. When we spoke about ordering food, due to having no table number we were told we would have to queue again. When we were eventually seated we were told it best to order online, we placed our order but we unable to apply the discount code we had which had been the sole reason for visiting and when we asked for help with this we were told there was nothing to be done. After a wait of 40 minutes our food arrived with a small portions of hunters chicken over cooked and dry and the two burgers that had been order were both burnt and missing lettuce. For a meal that cost over £90, staff who were both rude and unhelpful and uninterested in helping we will certainly not be returning to the Trading Post nor shall any of our party be recommending the venue to anyone else. Extremely disappointing

Where to begin, our party decided to try this location with a voucher in hand we had prebooked a table and headed on in. The restaurant was busy and we were greeted and pointed to our table which was by the window. The table was situated between two other tables barely enough room to sit down but we made it work knocking into other patrons chairs in the process. We then proceeded to place our order online where the voucher code did not work. After re inputting the code several times to no avail we gave up with the voucher and paid for our order as time was marching on. We ordered as follows a standard beef carvery, kebab, and hotdog. The beef from the carvery was the end offcut, which was hard and inedible, not even a ‘slice’ of beef, the stuffing block was as solid as a hockey puck and the Yorkshire pudding was stale. The only thing eaten was the cauliflower cheese…such a shame for an establishment that promotes its carvery in its advertising! The kebab was one strip of meat and a large portion of overlooked chips and the sausage from the hotdog was hot in the middle and cold at both ends again served with a large portion of over cooked chips. To top it off we did order a side portion of onion rings which were also over cooked. There was no opportunity to ‘ follow up’ whether everything was okay with our meals, and we left the restaurant disappointed and not wishing to return after this experience at this restaurant.

We visited for my father's 70s birthday, always had great food here, but this night was different. The staff were great, girl behind the bar was friendly and helpful, and the waiter we had was a good lad. The food that we had which was bad, was 3 cowboy burgers and 2 cheeseburgers, all 3 Cowboy burgers went back, Very over done burgers, to a point that you could smell the burntness before picking them up. We asked for new ones and these come back just as bad but the bacon was crispy to a point that they snapped. The waiter did his best and kept a level head. Not happy with the food to be fair.

Friendly staff, food was okay but lacking in taste (We had the carvery). I also had the vegetarian Spinach tart, it had some flavour but the tart had clearly been sitting for some time keeping warm, the result was a soft tart with very unappetizing pastry. My daughter also had the carvery although she had the meat option, she opted for a mix of the meats but was only given a burnt end piece of beef which was inedible, she probably should have mentioned this at the time and I'm sure it would have been rectified but likewise it probably should not have been served onto the plate either.

The food was just AWFUL. I have always loved coming here the food was always great, but last weekend everyone’s food was burnt and it was disgusting and just inedible. One of my family members ordered a well-done steak and it was just burnt and inedible. This was the worst experience ever. The waiter was lovely but he did seem quite fed up after some of my family sent their food back and said it was yet again burnt and claimed it was ‘charcoal grilled’ although everytime i’ve been here its never been cooked that way nor has it tasted that way. honestly i won’t be coming back and wasting my money on a meal i couldn’t even eat.

We came to the trading post for my dad’s 70th birthday. We ordered 4 cowboy burgers. When they arrived all of the burgers were burnt and crispy. We asked for replacements, which they did. When the replacements arrived they were also burnt. We also had 2 steaks. One was ordered as well done, and when it arrived it looked like it had been cremated!!! The other was meant to be medium/rare, and it was cooked more like medium /well. We decided not to order any desserts due to how bad the mains were. Drinks are expensive. For 2 Pepsi, and a J2O it was over £10!! We have never had a bad meal at the trading post in the past, but I certainly won’t be going back in the near future.

Very disappointed with the food . We arranged to meet friends there and raved to them about the menu and well known carvery . But we haven’t been for a good while . My son , now 17, has been going since he was in nappies ! The food was dry and brittle . All over cooked including the veg . Peas were shrivelled . We had a tea spoon each .We had booked for the carvery but it was nearly all gone by 7 ( finishes at 8pm ). There was No turkey and no fresh veg coming out of the kitchen . The place in general looked tatty and run down . Ripped seats and no matching sets of chairs around the tables . I would say it’s probably changed hands several times from back in the day ( when it was a bonza find). My glass had someone else’s lipstick on it ! Sorry but it’s a no from me Simon. Definitely needs some love injected.

We visited here recently for my dad’s 60th birthday celebrations, we had a table booked which was really easy to book and meant no waiting around when we arrived. We were a party of 7 including 2 children, one child wanted fish off the bigger appetites which was unavailable, they then chose to have the scampi from the bigger appetites which was around £8.99 and the portion was absolutely tiny and the plate very hot which wasn’t advised by the waiter. 5 of us ordered carvery which was very nice and enjoyable, only a very minor downside was there could have been more vegetables available. We then had puddings which again were very enjoyable, overall just a couple of minor issues but it didn’t stop us having a nice time.

As usual it was busy in there which meant there was a wait to order food and drinks.

But the service, variety of vegetable dishes and dessert menu options are good 😊 left feeling satisfyingly full!

Ordered food, we had mac and cheese which was lukewarm inside also had the soup which had been sat under the warmer for a long while that the butter had melted to a runny mess when opened, the advertised half a baguette was 2 small slices of baguette that were dry. Over all not the best experience and the waiting staff were too busy to check back on us.

Cheeseburger was burnt to a crisp. Was sat on a tiny table for grown men, like a kids table with wooden chairs. Meanwhile loads of comforted chairs/tables around empty. Assume the waiter just thought oh 3 guys let's just shove them on the bad table. Took an hour to be given our burnt burgers and 10 chips for £13. Biting into the burgers was like biting into a rock. Horrendous.

Had a lovely carvery here today. The beef was so tender. Plenty of fresh vegetables and a nice big Yorkshire pudding. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. Will be here again soon.

Roast dinner bland, meat stood too long. Expensive drinks.

Food portion was tiny had half a portion of fries and tasted like reheated McDonald’s fries burger was ok but smaller than normal and had to wait 40 minutes for it to come out. Was not worth the £13.

We arranged a New Year's Day carvery with family. Unfortunately, at just gone 4.30 they announced they had no meat ready for 2 hours! We could see other tables ordering off the main menu and their meals were coming out 5/10 minutes apart. We decided to leave, which ruined our day. The Carvery counter was covered in meat crumbs and not even cleared up ready for when the carvey would commence again. We could see they were probably short-staffed; however, that doesn't excuse the poor service. At no time did anyone come to our table to explain the situation and apologise. Very disappointing.

Great food and service 👌 The outside bar and seating looks impressive and will be well worth a visit when the weather is warmer 😀

Hadn't booked for a Saturday lunch but the manager still found us a table almost instantly. Happy to accommodate the dog, the servers were all smiley and friendly, their service was fantastic, the food was excellent (cheese soufflé 👌) and a lovely walk afterwards. Go, you won't regret it
