The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Handforth Cheshire East North West

Why do the management not listen to all the criticism? Do they, like many managers, refuse to believe they can get things wrong? After a stack of critics saying they should cover the food at the entrance, croissants and scones are still left uncovered. Soup and coffee were tepid, queues were long at too many different meal stations with too few staff, a rather expensive piece of coffee and walnut cake had walnut pieces scattered over a buttercream top but not a trace of coffee anywhere. And if you tried to get a coffee at one of the machines, two didn't work (the screen said they needed cleaning/emptying) and two others had no mugs but suddenly, with no buttons being pressed, dispensed what looked like grey water as I stood in front of them. Staff were helpful but one woman at a till suddenly walked away leaving a huge queue at the one remaining till.

This once bright and comfortable airy cafe has now become a dark and dismal place. Automated McDonald style ordering system…not all machines working. Very impersonal, no interaction with staff, who appear to be dashing around trying to deliver orders. Asked a simple question, received a very abrupt answer. Food and drink delivered at different times. When hot drinks served, abruptly asked if we wanted sugar. A waitress collected another customer order from hot food counter, dropped the wrapped side of butter/sauce on the floor, and placed it back on the plate then took to the customer. It seems customer service = Nil Staff overwhelmed with the system So uninviting, used to enjoy lunch at Marks.. but not now.. but there are two Costas on the NEXT site. Think Marks has forgotten part of the attraction at Handforth Dean WAS the M&S cafe.

Ideal cafe for before or after a class/swimming. I have always found the tables etc to be clean. Staff are always pleasant.
