    Went last night with 5 children, myself and husband. Put us at very back of restaurant ( which suits as we wouldn't want to inconvenience other people with children , though very well behaved ) table next to us loud and swearing ! Hurried us up on drinks plus food , waitresses kept asking if we were finished eating , rather rude , charged for tap water ! 56 quid in total for drinks ..won't visit again no itemised bill total £175

    Lady in charge found to be very rude, particularly on the buffet nights rushing our orders and wouldn't let little girl have ice cream deserts after as was after 8.30. Customer service course perhaps could improve this. Disappointed 😞

    Went for the Thursday buffet couple weeks ago, and absolutely no denying the food is lovely, however feel it's a little pricey, averaging about £35 a head for buffet and couple drinks.

    Toilet facilities are so dirty and unclean it's gross! Some of us didn't order the buffet and we were spoken to and treated like children being told we can't pick off others plates like we were going to! One waiter spoke to horribly and rudely to another member of staff that she made her cry! Would not recommend at all

    Just left this restaurant as we were sat at our table for 25 minutes and still no one even offered us drinks.... so taking food order was a long way away im guessing. A younge member of staff just stood there doing nothing. Dreadful customer service.
