Pleasant lunch good menu generally well priced good staff would recommend

It was a very busy time that we ate Sunday. The restaurant was full with staff running around endlessly. We did arrive early & there was nowhere initially for my 90 year old grandad to sit until they re-arranged the table for us. The waiting staff tried their best but I can’t help but think that a co-ordinator was needed to ease the flow somewhat & ensure they were dealing with what was needed at the time. Some of our food was wrong, things we’d asked to be removed & my wife found a slice of plastic food wrapper in her food, which was refunded. We missed the Sunday dinner too as it wasn’t on your menu but instead on a board near the gents toilets. There was a large table that complained & the lady was very hostile towards a staff member who looked close to tears. Having that co-ordinator there to speak to the public if there are any issues would have been ideal as I really did feel for the girl who got the brunt of the orders being incorrect. It really shouldn’t have been for her to deal with. Overall however we loved the food other than the wrapper mishap. Atmosphere I’ve scored low, it did feel like we were in the middle of a whirl wind at times, food flying past, cutlery being taken from the cabinet etc. Service was great the young staff really did do their best. Value for money scored highest, good quality food at a price I was more than happy to pay. We will be back but maybe at a quieter time Well done to all the waiting staff, they deserve a little treat & a huge well done Little extra would have been colouring books, pencils for the table behind just to keep kids occupied at the table :-)

Excellent food in lovely surroundings.

Amazing food, Great atmosphere and fab service. Love it.

We visited the whitchaff inn on a Saturday evening. Really lovely and helpful staff, food was delicious and atmosphere cosy and very welcoming. We will definitely be back. Thankyou Whitchaff staff

Lovely meal on Mothers Day. We were a party of 14 ( had to make 2 separate bookings) but we were delighted to find the tables next to each other. Food arrived together which was beautifully presented and which we all thoroughly enjoyed. Friendly and very willing staff I would highly recommend a visit.

Food service is amazing. The staff were really nice. Food portions are really big. Definitely coming back.

Absolutely delicious food and brilliant service. The only downside was that the food took about 45 minutes - it was really busy in fairness. We didn’t mind so much but it was a little too long to wait for the children’s meals - they were nearly climbing the walls!! However, we’ll definitely be back!!

10/10 as always Food was amazing and service was top class! Always a great time at A’Vucciria!!!

Great food in a fab restaurant and the service and waiting on staff are lovely. Highly recommend!

The food was delicious and piping hot. The service was brilliant too. The staff were attentive and polite.

We had a lovely meal on Saturday evening. The setting, atmosphere and decor very nice. We did need to ask for dessert menus and chase up a round of drinks (it was very busy) but the food was delicious, our table of 6 all had starts, mains and desserts, nicely presented too
