Great atmosphere, food and service

Food / Service Excellence but a little dismayed by the Time delay in taking orders and receiving of delicious food But this will not stop us booking again!

First time visiting Spoon. Great food, very tasty and wide variety. Everyone loves a buffet. Went at lunchtime on a Saturday wasn't too busy. Good value for money but always a bit more expensive on a weekend then a week day

Always a pleasure to meet friends here. Really good cheese scones as well.

I regularly meet friends here for lunch and it has always been a good experience. The quality of food and the service are always good, staff are friendly and pleasant. As I come here quite often I would like the lunch menu to change a bit. There is a good variety of healthy plants. The shop is well stocked with beautiful homeware, gifts and seasonal items.

Really helpful contact and lovely friendly waitresses the barn cafe was extremely busy, one thing to note the vegetarian breakfasts are a little unusual, bubble and speak doesn’t really go on a breakfast would be much better if they started supplying vegetarian sausages or at least halloumi so vegetarians don’t feel like they’re missing out

Amazing food. Great atmosphere. Love being able to take away cake!!

Fantastic breakfast as always !

Great food and service

This is a very great place for lunch; I have met friends and have aten there several times and never been disappointed. There is a good choice of food; it is delicious and affordable. The staff is friendly and efficient, the surroundings are very pleasant and there are beautiful cards & gift ideas all under one roof (besides beinga garden centre!). We like it so much that we booked for afternoon tea in December.

Superb meal! Our second visit here with our daughter and her partner. We love everything about Stoked: the service, the atmosphere, the incredible drink selection and of course the amazing food!! It's hard to believe that some of those scrumptious dishes are vegan! Highly recommended. We will be back!

Food was nice but not a great deal of choice if you don't ear pork. The vegetarian in the group only had a choice of a few Chinese dishes and no Indian dishes.

Discovered The Barn a few days ago went again yesterday for lunch. Lovely good and nice atmosphere. Will definitely visit again.

Lovely evening good service good food very accessible and accommodating

Lovely venue and delicious food served by friendly and helpful staff.

Wonderful can’t fault

Great food & atmosphere

Our first visit to Grumpy's was so lovely! I booked online and mentioned it was my son's 11th Birthday. On arrival we were greeted with a lovely booth under the retro car and a retro happy birthday banner and sparklers on our table! The food was unreal. So much choice, very reasonable and portions plenty. The Decor was wonderful and so nice to have the old time music playing in the background as well as seeing the old black and white films shown on the TV. We really did have a great time and have already recommended to friends and family and can't wait to come back to Grumpy's again.
