We came for a special occasion as this is my mums favourite place to eat and she is now in a Care Home. She was always a regular visitor to this restaurant for many years. We got the table requested. Thank you. We all felt the food was not as good as we’ve had previously. We all ate off the Christmas menu. Starters were ok ( nothing special), however mum had lamb and it was very tough. We had to ask for mint sauce and would have liked a sharper knife to cut her meat for her. Salmon was good. The veg was disappointing. Some roast potatoes ( tasteless) and one small dish of mixed veg. ( I have always loved the plentiful and tasty veg before but this was meagre, over cooked parsnips and unimaginative). Service was 2 older people, who although they tried, seemed rather rushed and not the usual friendly chat we’ve come to expect from staff. They struggled to carry the hot plates of food and we nearly got them on our laps a couple of times. The crackers were poor and the whole ambience lacking. The mince pies were tiny and everything lacked anything special. Overall an expense and disappointing trip out for us all.
