Having eaten here and previously in the van at various events, food is always top.standard, best pizzas around, nice relaxed vibes at the restaurant. I attended a pizza masterclass with rich(owner) and thoroughly enjoyed it, would recommend - from the complete novice to the budding amateur, it was a great insight to the many different intricacies that goes into creating the perfect Neapolitan pizza. Would highly recommend - diolch yn fawr 👍🏼
The worst food and restaurant, I went to this restaurant for lunch. I ordered food, their services were very poor, the waiter brought soup without tray with dirty hands, plates were dirty and not nice.
when they brought food on the table, meat and rice were not cooked properly.
when I spoke to the receptionist, they were very rude.
briefly, the worst restaurant.
Customer service here was very good. Chips were cooked to perfection, but the Curry wasn’t up-to standard. Seemed like it was microwaved in a large portion of stewed steak. Very sorry, won’t return. Rice tasted like antiseptic rice with the smell of germoline cream.
5⭐️ coffee and cake but it was too busy to try any food. Went back in another day and it was the same again. It must mean it’s very popular but not so good if you struggle with crowds.
The staff were very apologetic so no reflection on the service, just been unlucky I think.
A lovely shop staff very helpful and patient. Lovely cup of coffee and cake. Lovely music playing in the background.. a lovely experience would certainly be visiting again soon.
Food is very expensive for spuds. 2.80 for a small tray of chips, chips were disgusting, super dry and small bits only. Nearly 15 quids worth of food down the pan.
I was very happy to attend at Wine Tasting, arranged by Deinol of Blas Ar Fwyd, held at the Checkers Montgomery, a marriage of both Food and Wine.
There were 7 wines and a 6 course tasting menu. The wines were a perfect accompany to the food, and were presented by Deinol, with Skill, passion and a depth of information, which elevated the experience. The styles and variety of the wines were both appropriate and different, and I shall certainly appreciate wine differently from now.
Thank you
We popped in for lunch and ordered the quiche and the Welsh Rarebit.
A nice couple arrived celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary and sat on the table across from us. They ordered steaks from the menu and a bottle of prosecco. The server then turned on ambient music that was so loud that it was impossible to hold a conversation. I managed to turn it down just as the server appeared back to say that they had no steaks. I looked out of the window behind her and the nice couple to where I could see a lovely local butchers where I was pretty sure they sold lovely local steak! They could probably even deliver for free! The couple, disappointed ordered the fish and chips instead!
Another couple arrived, were seated and given menus by the same server who mentioned nothing about the steak...a short while later she returned and they ordered... steaks...to also be told that they had no steak!!
The piece of quiche that arrived was the smallest piece of quiche I've ever seen in my life and was almost lost in the garden of green leaves that surrounded it on the plate. If there was a big draft it would likely have blown off the plate. The Welsh Rarebit was soggy and tasted bitter. I asked if we could have a bigger piece of quiche. Ten minutes later the server returned to tell us that all the quiche pieces were that size.
I explained the situation to the duty manager who apologised, didn't charge us and told me that the chef had recently left, the kitchen was staffed by trainees and the place was probably going to close down soon anyway.
I suggested that they do so sooner rather than later and that the prosecco for the nice steakless couple should probably be free.
We went to a nice deli down the road and purchased two single pieces of quiche about 10 times the size of the one we had been served...oh and there was indeed lovely fresh local steak in the butchers shop.
Since then they have announced that the restaurant will close on 31st October 2024
Hopefully it will re-open one day with properly trained staff and a kitchen that makes the most of local produce and chefs who have the ability to cross the road.
