I booked the table reservation online and we got a free mains which was lovely! The restaurant was not packed, which was ideal as I had been there before and the constant happy birthdays and some loud people eating there did get annoying! Our waitress was friendly, and the food was brought out quickly. She also changed the bananas for strawberries when I ordered the yummy Lotus pancakes, which was appreciated. However what spoilt it all for me was that the website says they close at 10pm on a Sunday, yet by 9pm with some people still in the restaurant they said they were closing at 9pm. Had we known we would have ordered everything when we arrived including the coffee, which at 9pm we could not order, because the coffee machine was being cleaned. None of this info was on the website and this was not conveyed when we arrived. I was seeing a friend that came from far to see me so the aim was to have a few good hours of good food and convo, and it all then felt like it was all quite rushed by 9pm to leave. It was a shame as we both ordered the pancake stacks and it tasted lovely but really needed some coffee to finish them off nicely. So as that wasn't available and we felt rushed to leave, we both left much of the pancakes on the plate. I am not sure I will be back and if I do go back I will probably keep in mind that I need to get the order including coffee put in as soon as I arrive, and I might be asked to leave an hour before closing time (as on their website) even though the restaurant is not full! It is a shame as people go out to eat for the experience and not just the food and this seems to be overlooked at this place.
