The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in South East

Surely one of the best locations in Wales. Pity the service and fare didn't match it. Went there on a beautiful, crisp October day and sat outside. We had to move from our first table because of an overflowing drain under the adjacent table. The stench was appalling. Ordered our food - 1 bagel, 2 paninis (which turned out to be bread rolls) plus 2 drinks for more than £44. Not cheap. The two drinks were served separately and only after we reminded the staff we were still a drink short after 10 minutes. Of the list of beers on sale (maybe 5 or 6) only one was available. No chips to accompany our "rolls" but that's fair enough i guess. Enjoyed the view but that was about it. Food was mediocre- filled a gap but not much more. Won't be returning.

Typically I absolutely love Starbucks, however this particular Starbucks manages to mess up my order on numerous occasions. Once or twice I don’t mind we’re human and all make mistakes. However I’ve visited this store twice in the last two days, I asked for a large iced oat matcha latte with white mocha sauce.. I got a medium, they remade it.. I then got it without the white mocha (wasn’t until I’d driven off and tasted it I noticed). Today.. again I asked for the same thing AGAIN, I got a medium, it was remade but they just threw loads of ice in the drink and blended it up so I now can barely drink it because it’s FULL of blended ice and tastes like cinnamon?! Previously they’ve made it hot when I’ve asked for iced, I’ve had it made with normal milk when I ask for oat milk. I work nearby and lots of my colleagues complain that their coffee is burnt and ridiculously hot which coffee shouldn’t be. Not to mention a time when I ordered spinach & red pepper egg bites for my partner, they were freezing cold! Fed up of this place messing up simple orders.

I have ordered coffee 4 times there over the last 6 months, and everytime it has been undrinkable. The Americano in particular is bitter water with no taste of coffee. I noticed that their espresso brewhead is much shallower than most coffee machines, so they pack much less coffee than in other cafes. I had coffee with other people here and all have the same complaints. The cakes and pastries are fine though, that's why I give it a 2.

I think the price is a little high for what it is, a very small play area. The first time I went the food was great but has really gone downhill. There is no consistency e.g a children's crudite plate sometimes has double the amount, with bread and sometimes just a few bits of veg. The toasties are not toasted long enough. The big positive is that it feels much more 'grown up' than most equivalent places and is a very pleasant place to sit and have a drink, especially if you have kids who are old enough to do the soft play by themselves. My main beef with it though are that I have been treated very rudely by a staff member there.

The staff need to tie back their hair. Been in this new store couple times now and each time there are staff serving with long hair not tied back. YUCK!

This coffee bar in a busy commuter train station just outside Oxford does not accept Scottish banknotes. This is company policy that was quoted to me. Beware!

Having read the previous excellent good reviews it appears we must have called on an off day. Having ordered their roasted tomato soup topped with pesto, when it arrived it was as though the kitchen had opened a tin of tomatoes and processed through a blender. Very disappointing!

Beautiful building in need of some loving care. Two water wheels and very small outside area. Very restricted menu for lunch and beers/lagers only in bottles. Service only average. Quiet little atmosphere. Disappointed.

Us to be good but price gone up say he dus food tgen he ant as it bad day but the brekfrest all over dun

This place is a disgrace filthy and overpriced Waited for ages drinks slopped all over tray when delivered. No used plates etc cleared away see photo

Decided to nip into Starbucks whilst northbound on A34. Got food for all as well as drinks. Wanted to sit in. Order taken by one of the lads and we attempted to pay. It said we paid and then we waited for our stuff. A few mins later they advised us it hadn’t gone through and we’d need to pay again. We said it clearly went through as it said approved. They insisted it didnt and asked us to pay again. We asked for the decline receipt and he said there wasn’t one which we also disputed. As we couldn’t get our food and drink we did as asked and tried to pay again. This time it said it didn’t go through so we tried again. Again it looked as if it went through but they said it didnt. This time we stood our ground and said we wanted to see a decline receipt. They then gave us 2 receipts - one said decline, the other said an issue processing. The third receipt apparently hadn’t come out. We then paid again and apparently all successful. Having been perplexed and annoyed, a few days later we checked the bank statement to find they’d taken money from us multiple times. So each time we said we paid; we had. Now either it’s a scam they are running or their machine is on the blink. Needless to say, our bank are now going to be looking into it to get our money back as it’s very clear that they are the same transaction multiple times in a row but we shouldn’t have to do that. There were plenty of free tables and all looked comfy. None were clean. Clear but not clean. A guy however was seen to be sweeping the floor and wet floor sign were out. We had our stuff and then went to go to the toilet to find them closed. Baring in mind this is a Starbucks at a service area and we purchased from them to sit in, not having toilet facilities open is poor. The food we had however was really nice. Can’t complain about the actual products received at all. Although they did present them to us all over the place…food on one side of the counter with drinks the opposite end. None at the same time. And a lad that appeared to think he ran the show was being a bit of a not very nice person to other staff. Would we stop here again?! Absolutely not. It was the most expensive Starbucks I’ve ever visited after all those additional unnecessary transactions!!!

My daughter has had fun playing here. However have found them very hard to contact when trying to hire the space (no response to emails and phone mailbox is full).

Terrible service. Looked like she wanted to be anywhere but there. Monosyllabic, disinterested, annoyed at us. Food absolutely terrible. Our burger came in a dry bun with nothing else, no garnish or sauce and was too dry to eat. We will never be coming back.
