Wilds Café Bistro in Doncaster

Buen restaurante, personal lo suficientemente agradable, la comida no era mala, pero el servicio era increíblemente lento. Tardamos una eternidad en recibir nuestros platos principales y mucho más en recibir nuestros postres. Terminó siendo 2 horas y media en el restaurante debido a la espera.

Alojarse en el hotel Hex adyacente reservó una mesa para una cena temprana. Excelente personal, amable, buen servicio y excelente cerveza. Nuestros filetes fueron cocinados por encargo y como habíamos preguntado cómo ser cocinados. No estaba demasiado ocupado, así que no hay tiempo de espera para la cocina. Una gran comida y visita.

If I could have given it a 0 I would have. The food was horrible, we sent the chips back as they were not cooked - rock hard. They then came back about 10 minutes later and were burnt to a crisp. When we raised it with the manager about them being ‘home made’ and don’t think they were, he admitted that they weren’t, they came from a bag - not sure why they are being advertised as home made? The ‘home made’ pie was definitely from a pack too, the mushrooms were like rubber. Our toddler spent most of the meal upset because he was either waiting for food to be recooked or it was burnt. The staff were not interested at all, the waitress just kept speaking over my husband. She went to speak with her manager about removing the chips from the bill, he couldn’t even be bothered to come over, until we asked to speak to him about feedback. He again couldn’t be less interested, just said ‘oh sorry about that’. Definitely will not be returning. We actually left the park as wanted a proper meal rather than a burger van, we will be going to the burger van next time. Absolutely horrible - avoid at all cost!

Fuimos a cenar una vez y para el desayuno buffet dos veces. La comida era fresca y muy sabrosa y el personal era muy amable. El menú no es tan extenso, pero hizo el trabajo para nosotros. Los precios son altos para la cena, pero la calidad y el tamaño de la porción lo compensan un poco

Comida muy sabrosa, y una divertida selección de bebidas alcohólicas, especialmente los cócteles / cócteles. Personal muy agradable y una gran experiencia. Un poco caro, pero vale la pena en mi opinión!

Nice place but food was average for the price they want.

I went in expecting a pricy but decent enough meal. The short version, poor service, bad food, bad drinks and I would still have felt like I had been robbed at half the price. Long version Given the location I expected a slightly above average cost however I did not expect the quality to be so far below par. To start off with we ordered two soft drinks, neither of which actually had any syrup and were just fizzy water, we sent those back, no issue, someone forgot to run the pumps after changing the syrups not a major drama we were given replacements without any fuss. When the food came my wife had a visually appealing sandwich that she said was quite nice, but refused to eat the fries that came with it as they tasted like "old oil". Not great for the premium cost. My meal was a decent size portion of fish with some of the worst batter I've ever come across, pale and soggy before it reached our table. I'm not even sure how to describe the chips, again very pale soggy, almost like they were pre boiled but forgotten to be fried before serving. I would have felt ripped off at £8 if I got this meal from a local chippy but the fact this was £20 from a "bistro" supposedly serving upmarket local produce is an utter joke. All in, the meal cost over £40, when I went to the bar to pay I was promptly ignored by two young women having a chat and playing on their phones while the young lad who had served our table had to hurry up finishing what he was doing to take our payment. I would also add, there was a total of maybe 6 other people in the rather spacious restaurant at the time. Clearly not run off their feet. As we were staying in the hotel for the evening we were subjected to this sub par establishment again for breakfast. The service was much better in the morning, very polite and prompt. However the food was sub par but servicable. I've had better at almost every cheap business hotel chain you can imagine.

Had afternoon tea, everything was fresh and delicious, staff very attentive. Highly recommended. We are stuffed

Excellent service.Hardworking staff.

We recently stayed at the Hex hotel so breakfast was in the bistro and naturally decided to check out the bistro for dinner. Breakfast is a buffet style and although the food selection was good enough the hot food on offer was only just warm and unpleasant. Dinner was better and the staff were friendly and attentive. Both our meals included chips which were hard and chewy having been reheated. I'll never understand why a professional kitchen can't serve proper fresh chips. Unimpressed.

La comida no era buena. Hamburguesas cremadas y carne barata de calidad. Salmón de nuevo de mala calidad - sospecha congelado. En total £ 60 para 3 comidas decepcionantes - mi consejo encontrar otro lugar para comer

While here watching Jls very very happy with the customer service from Emily and her colleagues that night I was very anxious that night and thank to the team I felt safe and secured after calming down. Very pleased thank you guys !

Convenient and Tasty, but Be Aware of Outdoor Seating. We recently had the pleasure of dining at Wilds Café Bistro not once, but twice - once in the evening and once for breakfast. As a hotel guest, the restaurant's location couldn't be more convenient, literally just a step away from the hotel door. In the evening, my companion and I stuck to our usual habits and opted for burgers from the menu. Our orders arrived promptly, and we were impressed with the presentation and preparation of our meals, which we felt represented fair value for money at £17.00 each. However, we made the mistake of sitting outside to enjoy the pleasant weather, which turned out to be my mistake. Be warned: if you choose to sit outside, don't expect any service whatsoever. It seems that the outdoor seating area is a self-service zone. The next morning, we returned to the restaurant for their breakfast buffet, which offered an impressive spread of fresh fruits, cereals, pastries, and cooked breakfast items. We were pleased with the taste and preparation of our selections, and despite the staff being a bit rushed due to the busy morning, they handled the crowds admirably. Our experiences at Wilds Café Bistro were quite satisfying but not overwhelming. The evening meal was delightful in presentation and taste, and the breakfast buffet offered a fantastic spread to start the day. But the convenient location and good food make Wilds Café Bistro a decent option, especially for hotel guests.

The restaurant of the hotel du parc, where you also have breakfast. The service is fast, efficient, and the cuisine is very honest, for excellent value for money, which is no small feat in England.

Emily behind the bar , was an absolute angel she helped us with some difficulties we had especially my friends anxiety attack would definitely recommend this restaurant at the wild life park. Definitely a credit to your team .

We stayed at Hex on Sunday night as we were watching Jessie J at Wildlive. The food was average but the chips were cold and tasted like they had been under a hot plate for a while. The wait each time to be served by the bar staff was very long. One member of staff who shone out was JJ - he was amazing! He was professional, courteous and efficient. He is a credit to your team! He made our evening with his pleasant manner and kind words.

Very nice place, got a burger which was dry but you got good portions. Will be going again. Confusing to get parked

Burger patty was incinerated, charred black and bitter. Hire a chef who can actually cook.

Lovely place prices reasonable son hates salad so asked that no salad or colslaw be with his meal staff are all lovely food was great we hope to return

Afternoon tea at £20 per person. Came for a special birthday and very disappointed. Have been before and it was great but not good this time. Very few sandwiches, some of bread stale as if it had been sat waiting and dry brownies/mushy strawberries. Slow service but lovely setting.

Popped in for a late breakfast that was closer to lunch time so opted for a burger and chips, very tasty and huge! Couldn’t finish it all. Setting is lovely, we went midweek and it was quiet and intimate. Really modern and doesn’t feel like you are in Doncaster, loved it

The young staff were very good but that's about it! I ordered a pasta main which was an incredibly small portion considering the £18 price tag. More like a starter size. The evening got progressively worse when a pensioner coach trip party arrived and we were subjected to bingo calling over the whole sound system during our meal. Inappropriate and completely unacceptable in a so called Bistro! You are charged inflated prices for very average quality food. The staff were apologetic and said numerous diners have complained in the past about the dreadful bingo. If you want to pay over the odds for a 2 star hotel in Blackpool experience, this is the place for you! Seriously, avoid!!

Had the loveliest experience today at this restaurant, we were served by a lovely young lady called Georgina, she really made our visit- thank you Georgina will be back

We had booked a package with the Hex Hotel to include Breakfast at the Wilds Bistro. Excellent buffet breakfast served with friendly staff. Booked our evening dinner, friendly staff, meal was lovely. Theakston Beer was great. Service was superb. All in all a great experience throughout dinner & breakfast. Would recommend

Great food, exceptional service and polite staff, good ending to a fabulous day at Yorkshire wildlife park.

Lovely place, great location lovely staff .. but the food was very disappointing. Ravioli was like a starter portion. The quiche was nice but came with an undercooked jacket potato

As we were staying in The Hex Hotel , it made sense to eat on site rather than venture into Doncaster ...... This place is a delight - especially on an evening. The lighting and table layout is spot on and the staff were all extremely welcoming and even my picky eating habits and random requests were accommodated without too much eye rolling! The food is absolutely spot on - we did three courses with a suitable (large) amount of accompanying alcohol and the bill was below 3 figures so decent value for money as well in a laid back, no rush environment.

My wife and I walked in yesterday lunchtime (Tue 11 Jun 24), were shown to a table for two and were told someone would be with us shortly to take our drinks order. Twenty minutes later and with no drinks, we decided to walk out. It was only then the staff even seemed to acknowledge our presence. You never get a second chance to make a first impression and Wilds blew it!.

Food and service was absolutely second to none! The staff where absolutely amazing and couldn't do enough for us and our children. We had breakfast here after staying at the hotel and there was so much to pick from. We came and played bingo in the evening too which was really lovely!

A clean sweep of five stars. Simple menu well cooked, brilliantly served by a team of hard working and highly pleasant individuals. Very happy to recommend.

We went for a meal at the Wilds Bistro at the Yorkshire Wildlifepark yesterday, what a lovely experience. The restaurant had a delightful ambiance, all the staff were amazing and the food was excellent. We were greeted by Amelia who firstly asked if we had any allergy requirements, which was excellent. My wife opted for the GF fish and chips and I had the spicy cauliflower balti pie; both choices were delicious and we both will definitely be coming back. Thank you all, Andy P

A nice meal with colleagues this evening. Friendly staff and a nice decor. Decent fish and chips too.

Just finished breakfast opted for eggs Benedict on English muffin got two slices of toast, packet ham, two poorly poached eggs. wife went for fresh fruit salad and yogurt, got pineapple slices and watermelon slices still with skin on so had to chop it up herself plus eat it with a fork.

The food was lovely. Service excellent especially Emily A

We called into here for a coffee and catch up and ended up having our breakfast. We both chose the eggs Benedict with smoked ham and hollandaise sauce. They tasted delicious. Our first time eating and drinking in here and will definitely return. Very clean and attentive staff.

We ate here while staying at the hotel, the food was reasonably priced £60 for 2 adults and 2 children with drinks we both had Yorkshire House beef burger and the kids had nuggets and chips which they enjoyed. Only thing was the full menu wasnt available I think as it was a Sunday.

We visited for dinner on Mothers Day. Waited 40 minutes for our meals after the starter was finished and even then we only got them after asking. One of the meals turned up stone cold so was sent back. We finished our meals and despite the restaurant being practically empty, they were never cleared up. We were never asked if we wanted a dessert nor any additional drinks. Staff walking past ignoring us. It took getting up and putting our coats on as we got fed up of waiting for someone to actually attempt to sort our bill. Meanwhile all this time, four of the staff were stood chatting doing absolutely nothing, looking in our direction. Food was ok at best. Staff need to up their game!

We stayed at the hotel at the Yorkshire Wildlife Park, and had a very pleasant evening meal here. The food was good and our waitress Emily A was excellent, attentive but not over the the top, would visit again.

Freshly cooked breakfast had to wait 30mins only 3 other tables in. Hardest poached eggs I’ve ever had very disappointed 😞

We had an evening meal and breakfast Good quality, tasty food 😋

Came here for an evening meal as we were staying in the Hex Hotel. Nice relaxing bistro (not very busy) Food was cooked to perfection and tasted great. Good drinks selection and the service provided by the staff was good too. Looking forward to returning for another meal in the near future.

Overpriced afternoon tea, had better elsewhere for half the price. Our waitress was lovely but another was very rude to my partner and daughter

We visited the Bistro for the first time yesterday as family of 6, with 2 children and it was really lovely. The place itself is beautiful and clean. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and the food was great. Very efficent service from start to finish. Visited the Evolution restaurant many times due to having small children but would definitely return to the Bistro.

I can't comment on the food/drinks because I've never managed to get that far. I've called in a few times, been turned away because they weren't doing drop-ins and this morning I've been totally ignored by the staff and left. This isn't the first time this has happened. Go to Cornerstone's they are friendly, the food is good and they want your business.

This was our third visit and previously it has been really good. It was very busy today but the service was lacking. Everybody had to wait or had to remind about orders. The food however was as good as always.

Update 14/12/2023 Popped in for breakfast - buffet breakfast all you can eat £13.95 very nice 🙂 good service 🤩 We visited here for afternoon tea. It was a Sunday and 14:00. The place was pretty empty thus very quiet. The food was ok, but for 16/17£ per person I felt it was missing something. Perhaps a few more sandwiches, better salad side, rather than all those bought in cakes. I will stick to the standard menu next time. The place itself is very clean and the ambience/setting inside is great, it has so much potential! It just needs a rethink, some money injecting into the menu / kitchen to allow the chefs to provide something unique that matches the fantastic setting. Toilets were super clean, and good baby change and disabled 🚻 within the restaurant. Good wheelchair access and seating available.

Stopped off for a couple of drinks after shopping in the area. Have visited before, but not for a while as past visits were poor. sad to say today’s experience was no better, wasn’t eating just wanted a drink. Ordered 2 drinks at the bar had to take a seat…wait 5 minutes for drinks to be brought to the table, there were only 3 tables occupied including us!!! When we ordered a second drink my partner received theirs straight away at the bar but I again had to wait for a glass of wine to be brought to the table some minutes later. Baffling when there were as many staff as there were tables occupied!!!!

Visited Saturday morning before the rush started around 11:45 Service was diabolical tbh, was seated then basically ignored despite the restaurant probably being at 10% capacity. After 15 mins of trying to catch the eyes of the walking dead (and failing) I decided to go to the bar to order myself, order taken, then waited… 10 mins went by and my brother joined us at the table, he then went to the bar to order himself as we’d already ordered. A further 10 mins went by and my brother’s food arrived. I was then asked if I’d like to order also (this was by the girl that took my order circa 20 mins prior) I enlightened her of this fact and our Luke warm food appeared some moments later, I’d given up any explanation at this point and the meal was decidedly average. Utterly clueless.

We arrived at the bistro after a lovely day in the wildlife park our table was booked for 17.15 and we had 2 hours to dine before we were back off into the park for the winter illuminations this should have been plenty of time……..I was wrong!! First impressions were great we were seated straight away and had our drinks order taken these arrived quite promptly so thank you to the bar man who looked like he was in his own cocktail movie behind the bar. We waited over 15 minutes to order meanwhile about 5 other tables were seated and they all ordered before we did!! The young waitress was either new or very inexperienced when it came to prioritising customers. When we did ordered, 2 starters and a kids meal we asked for that to come at the same time as our granddaughter was getting hungry. The starters were out pretty quickly but we had to ask for the kiddies meal as they had forgotten. The Camembert cheese starter was probably the best meal of the evening however the bread was un toasted and the roasted garlic was not roasted at all. I always though bruschetta was toasted maybe I’m wrong because the prawn starter was just on bread!! This was where we seemed to be forgotten we finished our starter and no one was interested in clearing them away after what seemed like ages and we were now 18.20 I asked a young man who seemed very surprised to take away the empty plates and asked if they could bring the main courses. Maybe that was my mistake, maybe he didn’t inform the kitchen because we then waited over 30 minutes for 1 burger, 2 chicken burgers and a halloumi baguette!! I even asked twice how long it was going to be to be told the kitchen was very busy. Now I’m sorry but I don’t believe you as by this point most customers had left including the tables that came in after us so why did we have to wait so long and let me say it was not even worth the wait!! All of the burgers were cold and the halloumi which I thought may have been nicely grilled and bursting with pesto flavour sadly had seen no grill and had no pesto at all I could have made better at home. We were so disappointed and it really wasn’t worth the money or the wait!!

Spent all day at the wildlife park, first stop before we entered was to make a booking at Wilds Cafe bistro for tea later in the day before winter illuminations but told we didnt need to book. Just been back now and informed we have to book to eat there so not at all happy. Family of 6 now trying to find somewhere suitable to eat before winter illuminations start

Only went for breakfast but it was cold. All of the breakfast food were left out with no top on the holder so cold food. The sausages were massively overcooked then left so hard. The apple juice tasted more like water than apple. There was nothing massively enjoyable about it.

On 2 separate visits my meal was wrong on both occasions. On the first visit they got everyone’s order wrong and this week all 3 were wrong. I don’t be eating there again

We booked in the Hotel next door, so booked our evening meal in Wilds Bistro. From arrival to departing the service from the 2 staff looking after us was excellent. The food was cooked to our liking. The drinks were good. The cost was the market average you would pay anywhere. Thoroughly enjoyed and would recommend.

We visited on 16th October 23 hotel package included a breakfast here just outside the hotel. The bistro was clean and welcoming , the staff both members were friendly, helpful and kind while staying professional. We can’t recall one staff members name ( sorry) we did recall Adrian both were so accommodating they made us feel really welcome thank you. The Buffett was set as you would expect drinks / toast / hot food / cereals / pastries / fresh fruits / yogs/ juices etc Huge selection and all of outstanding quality. Our teen is autistic so couldn’t find anything he felt he could eat, the staff offered to make him an alternative ( despite the huge variety on offer ) they could see he was struggling. He declined but this gesture to include and accommodate him meant we felt we could relax and reduced any pressure on us. Our son settled for watermelon and a satsuma so was able to enjoy those. We had cooked breakfasts from the buffet area and expected the normal type of food - we were pleasantly surprised! The food was piping hot , each element was the right texture ( mushrooms and tomatoes not mushy they were beautifully cooked the mushroom had pepper on which added a lovely dimension to the breakfast. The quality of the sausages and bacon were exceptional ( as was the whole meal. If we lived locally we would go there often for a breakfast if the produce is as good as this at breakfast we would be very happy to return . Outstanding breakfast exceptional service thank you

Had the worst dining experience here! A party of 13 of us ate here on a day out to the YWP. 7 of us were served very fast, with another 6 left for a good 15 / 20 minutes, we had to chase this up as 4 waiting were small children that were becoming unsettled seeing everyone else eat. 3 of us ordered the beef burgers and then added bacon and cheese (not a cheap meal at nearly £17 a plate.). I can honestly say I've never tasted anything so disgusting in all my life! The burger was black and the whole meal smelt burnt, so bad in fact i couldn't sit with it on the table! This was consistent across all 3 of the beef burgers. They were simply inedible - not that we didn't try as we had spent so much and were all very hungry after a full day of walking. None of the adults enjoyed their meals. However, the children's chicken nugget meals were lovely - tho for £7 I should think so! Definitely will not be returning, and I'd advise others not to eat here. Totally put a downer on the whole day with a combined bill of around £250 for the pleasure.

- Seven stars services from the staff who goes above and beyond when the drink on my original order was apparently sold out, he lets me substitute it with any other drink with no extra charge + being refunded for the Drink which was sold out - Seven stars Food, whilst the food portion may varies depending on what was being ordered, the Quality of the ingredients used on the food was simply beyond this planet - Seven star atmosphere, The Bistro is a very comfortable place to have a long evening chat Suggestion : once the "plan" is fully implemented it would be nice to open until 23:00 - later

Delicious food, friendly staff & a great ambience. Will call in again for sure!

What a lovely place for afternoon tea. Excellent customer service and a big shout out to Adrian for looking after us Definitely will be back

Wrote a review 5 months ago, April 2023. Had a terrible meal very small poor portions and got money back. Was a shame as we have dined here for meals and breakfasts after staying in the hotel. We were staying again and thought we'd give Wilds another chance. SO GLAD WE DID. The staff for both evening meal and breakfast were brilliant and the food back to being delicious. The hotel great to stay a night too. We're so happy as it's a great place.

Great team work for my eldest daughters birthday treat, not long after a medical issue, so wanted it to run smooth, which it did

Always very good drinks and food and a pleasant atmosphere. Only thing that does let it down is that the service is a bit hit and miss. It can be frustrating when there is only one person serving behind the bar doing drinks and taking food orders while other staff are standing around. On the whole though it’s pretty good and would recommend.

We visited Wild for the first time today, and were quite disappointed. The staff were nice, but appeared to be very inexperienced and confused. The food was ok but was overpriced for the quality, and my daughter’s salmon was undercooked. We sent the meal back, and the salmon was replaced, however, it was brought out with just a portion of Hollandaise Sauce, but no vegetables or salad. It was very random. A very underwhelming experience sadly.

Nice food but small portions. Expensive glass of wine.

We came here unplanned and the staff and service could not have been better. From the bar staff to the waiting staff the customer service was outstanding. The food was excellent and exceptional value. We ended up going twice during our stay!! Thank you.

Food was ok. Service was with a smile. Reasonable prices.

We chose to reserve a table here for a family outing, so we'd have more time to enjoy the Wildlife Park. Unfortunately the service was so slow, it took over two hours out of our day. Waiting staff were entirely inattentive and seemed to think we should have let them know we'd finished our starters and we're ready for our main course. Added to this, the burgers were very dry and overcooked so not really worth the wait. Our experience here marred what was otherwise a lovely day out at the Wildlife Park

During our staying at Wildlife camping station we decided to go to Wild's cafe Bistro for breakfast. My daughter being newly diagnosed with diabetes and coeliac this was our first trip. I was very anxious as we were there with other family and friends. I didnt want my daughter to feel left out in terms of activities and mainly in food. She doesn't like to be singled out as much as this disease has changed our lives we still try best to be normal. I am very grateful for the chef to make her favourite breakfast gluten free pancakes which was not even on menu. I made a request to them as rest of the kids were having this. And these were the best pancakes she has had. Thank you chef.

We’ve been here twice now (May 2022 and August 2023) and had similarly bizarre experiences both times. The waiting staff seem to have a real problem remembering the table numbering system and working out what table each order is meant to be going to. On both visits we repeatedly had waiting staff coming up to our table with random food and drinks asking if they were for us. It got pretty funny as it was so ridiculous, and did at least provide some entertainment during the long wait for what we had ordered. This time, when my grilled halloumi salad came the halloumi was completely uncooked - I’m not exaggerating. I asked for the halloumi to be cooked and when it came back it was really burnt on one side yet somehow still not cooked through. This was really poor and not what you expect for £13.50 for a salad. I wish we’d asked for a refund for it. We felt really sorry for the waiting staff as the system is incredibly inefficient and it must be very stressful for them. The management need to rethink how this bistro is run - both visits were on a Saturday lunchtime but the place was nowhere near full. The decor is really lovely but the chaotic service and long wait for food dampens the atmosphere somewhat. Prices are expensive for average food (when it’s properly cooked). I would recommend trying one of the other cafes or restaurants in the complex instead of Wilds.

A good varied menu with a nice atmospher inside. Staff were all friendly and the place was spotless. Well worth a visit if you are at the Wildlife Park.

We stopped at the Wild's Bistro for a light lunch before visiting the wildlife park. The restaurant was clean and fresh when we entered. The staff were very attentive and the food was incredible. The salad was super fresh and crispy and the desserts were...

So... the food isn't amazing, but it is good (id rate it better than most chain pubs who microwave everything and on par at times with some gastro pubs). The service is hit and miss, we've had attentive servers and also the opposite, not asking whether our food is OK or anything after putting our food down. The thing is, after a long day at the wildlife park, it's an easy stop to ensure I don't have to cook and wash up and also my toddler seems to be less of a threenager there, so win win. Plus I get 20% off due to being a gold member of ywp. I do love the decor and also the fact that's its never that busy, so I can actually unwind after the hordes at the park. Would I return, yes, and I quite often do. Would I recommend, ...that depends on your expectations.

We arrived far too early - no problem. I have allergies - no problem. The staff here are just lovely - nothing is too much trouble for them. Prosecco is soothing & afternoon tea delightful. Too much so we had to take some home. The...

Excellent experience! Stylish spot with a really yammi food and friendly staff.

Very good quality of food. Clean place, no wait on a Saturday evening. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Stopped for a beer on the way back to the hotel quite expensive but what you would expect to pay on site bar

My husband and I visited for afternoon tea and we felt very disappointed with the quality of food. Cheap thick white bread, lemon mousse in shot glass, two bits of brownie, a mini tasteless cake and a pre bought scone, however I appreciated the clotted...

We had dinner and breakfast here as we were staying at Hex Hotel next door. It was fairly quiet as the park was closed and we were greeted with a smile by a very friendly young lady called Emily who was also there at breakfast...

Had a horrible experience for my birthday. One Staff member aggressive to my younger brother, the food was burnt, the atmosphere was awful. I am very disappointed. From the minute we walked in we wasn’t greeted nicely. The food was that bad we left to go to the grind which was amazing 10/10 would always recommend, served by najma who was amazing, and made my birthday great again. The bar tender volkan. Thank you guys for making my day and WILD CAFE BISTRO DO BETTER !!! CHECK OUT THE PICTURE OF FOOD FOR THE GRIND

The worst experience sat 1hr waiting for food only to be told the order was not taken although we were asked to order at the bar and receipts were provided. Some of my family who got their food did not like it cos it was burnt and I ordered fish and Chips and it was Iceland frozen fish which was dry and cold inside . WORST PLACE my daughter's birthday meal was ruined!!!

Are here for breakfast whilst staying in the hotel. Breakfast was good, buffet had plenty of options which were hot. Staff were friendly and it was just a good breakfast. Nice start to the day.

We paid for breakfast as we stayed in the hotel, my husband went the first morning and was not impressed, the second morning it was a buffet style breakfast and he had a look and decided not to bother. The other issue we had was...

Worst tea experience ever!! booked a afternoon tea as a birthday present left hungry food was stale and horrible portions were tiny for the money paid it was a rip off !

3 of us booked a meal for after our day in the park. We had chicken burgers and steak and ale pie with brownies and cookie n cream cheesecake for dessert. All food tasted great and a good portion size. The welcome and service we received was excellent. We would definitely return, many thanks.

useful place to get food and drink either side of visiting the wildlife park Quality was fine but very expensive Service was friendly but very slow considering it was early and very quiet.

Called this morning before going in the park. Very quiet. Drinks arrived. Flavoured tea in a latte glass normaly in a tea pot? Breakfasts arrive Only thing that was hot was the hash browns.my tea was hotter..scrambled eggs were still snotty.. No butter for toast....

I’m basing this review on my most recent visit, which was for breakfast. We’re regular visitors to the park, and also stay at the hotel occasionally. When it first opened, we had a couple of lovely meals and were impressed. We’ve since had a lovely...

Great place to eat very relaxed after a full day at the wildlife park. Had my 2 children with us who are 3 Tom was excellent with recommendations and letting us know the food was cooked fresh was really impressed with the childerens choices available....

Went into the bar before it closed for some water for our room in the hotel. Walked in and no greeting, just a "I'VE CALLED LAST ORDERS SO YOU CAN HAVE ONE DRINK" what a lovely attitude to a customer. But we had a chat....

Had dinner and breakfast here when stopping at the hex hotel. Food can't fault it at all it was great. A little expensive but expect that at a resort type restaurant.

Disappointing second visit. The first time we came here the breakfast items we had were really good so we were looking forward to having breakfast again. Unfortunately we were left disappointed. The salmon on the eggs royal was so tough and stringy in parts it was inedible, the hollandaise sauce was thick and gloopy and had obviously been stood as it was cold as the top had gone hard and a different colour to the rest. The eggs were perfectly cooked but the rest was a let down. The pancakes were just 3 very thin pancakes which looked like the thin scotch pancakes you get in supermarkets with a think layer of yogurt spread over the top. Really disappointing and won’t be going back again as the food standards have obviously gone downhill.

First time coming to wilds cafe bistro, so had to have a 8oz rump steak which was served with house salad and a choice of fries and I always have my steak R/M it was that nice I had to find out who cooked my steak & his name was Andy what a chef he is that was the nicest steak I've ever had. The girls on the bar & on floor are very friendly. I can say il definitely come again and have a steak if Andy is cooking them.

Went for a bite to eat after a visit to the Wildlife Park. Service great & really enjoyed the food.

What a wonderful venue to either start your day with beeakfast, have brunch or lunch or finish your day with diner and a few drinks, staff were amazing food was great and the atmosphere was perfect and would highly recommend

The food is ok. Pricey but what you would expect for where it is. The service however left a lot to be desired. Tables not cleared when people had left. We ordered deserts and when they came out main course crockery had not been cleared...

Lovely setting and a nice place to eat. The menu had alot of dishes Ive never heard of or eaten. It made a nice change to be eating something different such as a croque madam.

We were visiting LJ's Boutique and decided to grab some lunch, had a look around and Wilds Bistro was really the only option for a Sunday Lunch. 5 hygiene Rating was a good start. Atmosphere was very nice well-lit but not too bright. Ambience was...

Visited for lunch. Always a lovely, relaxed atmosphere here, with great food and friendly staff.

Amazing lunchtime food & lovely staff thank you 😊
