Amazing place i recently moved to the area and stumbled across the Imperial. I nipped in for a quick guinness the barman apologized for the charger can guiness understandable but when i was told the price i was in shock. A pint of guiness for under £3 wow had a few whilst i took in my surrounding lovely local place traditional style and proper characters nice to see an unpretentious boozer in these modern times of chain pubs and so called posh bars at least in this bar you can smile and enjoy yourself because its down to earth
I went there first time and I absolutely loved it. The service was lovely and the staff was ever so kind. I would most definitely go there again and tell all my friends and family to visit as well.
So much more than we expected - the pictures on the website struggle to convey the tranquility and flawlessness we found here. This was a perfect out of the way experience. The perfectly professional staff were exactly where they needed to be, but never overbearing. The chef made amazing meals every evening, and i would highly recommend watching him prepare one. The swimming pool was lovely.
I seriously cannot exaggerate the extent to which the staff turn this place from a lovely stay into the most relaxing few days I've had for a long time!! Jesse, the manager, was particularly smiley and was a lovely welcome to us tired travellers!
I went to LT dining hall today (for the first time) for the Sunday carvery and what a wonderful surprise. There were different roast meats to choose from as well as a vegetarian option. The meat was served by the staff at the counter, but from there on it was self service - roast potatoes, roast parsnips, boiled potatoes, mashed potatoes, cabbage, carrots, garden peas, mushy peas, stuffing, Yorkshire pudding. Then over to the self service condiments section, mint sauce, apple sauce, cranberry sauce, horseradish sauce and gravy. For all of £7.95 - amazing. There were also dessert options, but I had no room left. My Mum however had the bread and butter pudding. She came back with something in a bowl the size of a small fridge, it was huge! The cream that went with it was self service too. I will definitely be back. I think next time I may get a dessert to take away, as 10 hours later I'm beginning to feel peckish.
My partner and I were in the area for a few hours and HEAT was recommended to us so we popped in for lunch with our young son. We were definitely not disappointed! The food was exceptionally tasty; so many yummy options to choose from including a brilliant ‘build-a-box’ with a wide range of delicious protein, carbs, fresh veg/salad and homemade sauces. We plumped for a halloumi burger each, with a shared side of ‘dirty fries’ and a smoothie each- one berry and one banana, coconut & lime. The food was incredibly tasty and the smoothies were fruity and refreshing.
The staff were all really friendly, smiley, helpful and went out of their way to make our experience with them a good one. The open kitchen to the side of the counter looks impeccably clean and well kept, the food is prepared and cooked from fresh and this takes a little time- which it should- so be prepared to have a wait of a few minutes.
The chef let us know that dirty fries usually come with bacon and asked if either of us is veggie. I am, so they helpfully split the portion to give us half in one box without bacon and half in the second box with bacon for my partner.
All the food was nicely presented and incredibly tasty. The satay sauce on the sweet potato fries was so yummy.
We sat in and ate, whereas most of the cafe’s custom was takeaway while we were there- they obviously do very well from local custom at lunchtime because people were ringing ahead and collecting orders and bringing in lists of orders from their colleagues.
They do need to invest in a high chair or two, but this didn’t spoil our visit in any way. Our son was happy enough to sit in his pushchair to eat his packed lunch (& despite being a fussy eater he was chomping away on our fries and halloumi and enjoying sampling our smoothies).
Decor in HEAT is stylish and simple and it is very clean and hygienic.
All in all a great visit to a really lovely healthy food cafe which deserves the support of local custom. We will certainly be back (we may even travel up from Shrewsbury to Oswestry just to eat here again).
What a pleasant find. Initially we walked passed thinking it was just a sandwich bar because all of the restaurants were shut on Monday we came back. Thank goodness we did, a good choice of freshly cooked healthy meals, my chicken flatbread was delicious.
Food was excellent. The delivery driver was very apologetic as the food arrived a few minutes after its scheduled time and gave us £5 back as a good will gesture. Quality food and quality service.
We had a great lunch on Saturday with family, including our 4 year old daughter. The staff were so friendly and attentive and the food was delicious! They’d only just recovered from a power cut and still had no signal but handled it calmly & professionally. The decor is really pretty and cosy too. We would absolutely recommend and will be back next time we visit :-)
We regularly eat at the Cabana Grill at the Miramar Hotel - the food is good and fresh and always well cooked and presented.
It's good value - if you are in tthe area give it a try
We came here for a late brunch and were served by the lovely Italian lady owner who was helped us make up our mind. We plumped for pancakes with syrup and bacon and they were delicious. Washed down with great coffee and refreshing fresh orange juice we left feeling full and happy. The offer of mini carrot cakes was very tempting but we were well fed! I'm glad we found this little gem. It's only a shame it was our last day as I would definitely go back for seconds.
