Reviews in Calne

Very good evening meals served with excellent service.It's just a shame the same cannot be said for their lunch time meals. Advertised as serving food untill 1430, however the kitchen was closed by 1415. The manager made this us feel very unwelcome. Needless to say they will no longer have my custom.

I am disgusted and embarrassed by the treatment received at this restaurant. We went there the day after mother's day. My partner had gammon and ham and I had penne and mushrooms wrapped in cream! The gammon, well, the pineapple his a very small round, mostly fat! The mushroom pasta..... I cannot understand how it was allowed out of the kitchen. The pasta and mushrooms were SWIMMING in what appeared and tasted like TINNED mushroom soup. It was almost impossible to eat with a fork. Had to pierce each separate piece of pasta and try to get it to my mouth without it splashing off. I hate complaining but told the waitress who replied, "well, not sure what you expect me to do about it". I was then totally embarrassed and wish I had just walked out. She then added "shall I get you a SPOON?!!!!" She was right though as that was the only way it could be eaten. There was also no sign of the Parmesan shavings that should have been on it. When I paid told the waitress to take remainder out to cook to show him how awful it was. We still had to pay. I cannot understand why the manager didn't sort this out and have a word with us. NOTHING. They were not interested. You can pass my email onto the hotel.

What delicious food in delightful surroundings we have never been disappointed in the wonderful service ,and the warm welcome we have from the staff.

What a brilliant turn-around in the last year. All the food is prepared on the premises - and was really tasty. They look after the children as well. We went in on Sunday lunchtime. There were four different bitters and a good wine list. They have two miniature pigs, sheep and geese outside and there is a park for the children next to the car park. They are doing a "Credit Crunch Lunch" during the week now - £10 for 2 courses and tea/coffee afterwards.

very pathetic service...They didn't know how to talk to customers...Walked out and did not even try the food... what the place looked like was overshadowed by their service factor.
