点评:We dropped in on spec to see if we could get Sunday lunch and we were pleased with the traditional period keeping of the reception.
We were advised that we could dine in, as non residents but needed to book. Which we did there and then with a half hour wait for seating.
This seemed odd as when we did take our seat the restaurant was very very quiet.
We were taken to our table and were advised someone would be over to take our food and drinks order but we could hep ourselves to the salad bar.
The salad bar was very underwhelming and was awful.
We waited 15 minutes for someone to take our food and drinks order and were only served as we approached staff.
Then one drink was delivered to the table but the 2nd drink, which was only water did not arrive.
We were also flanked by two tables requiring clearing. This only took place once we also brought this to the staff ls attention when chasing up the water.
We appreciate the weather was inclement but the lack of clearing and taking order was unacceptable as the two waiting staff were folding napkins. They were very nicely folded but I think guests should be give attention rather that folding piles of napkins.
When the beef Sunday lunch arrived it was reasonably tasty but the beef was tough and fatty. There were three small roast potatoes and roast parsnips with carrot and Yorkshire pudding. It was very average.
We then visited the dessert bar which consisted of profiteroles with very little chocolate sauce and a few individual cheesecakes. This fell short of the beautiful dessert buffet on website.
Jake the host was apologetic and advised they did have some issues in kitchen and waiting staff were quite new.
My advice to the management is to train your waiting staff to notice their surroundings and clients and ensure priorities are set accordingly.
翻译:我们按要求来这里看看是否能吃到周日午餐,我们对接待处的传统服务很满意。
我们被告知,作为非住客,我们可以在餐厅用餐,但需要预订。我们当场预订,然后等了半个小时才有座位。
这似乎很奇怪,因为当我们就座时,餐厅非常非常安静。
我们被带到我们的餐桌旁,被告知会有人过来拿我们的食物和饮料订单,但我们可以自己去沙拉吧。
沙拉吧非常不尽人意,非常糟糕。
我们等了 15 分钟才有人拿我们的食物和饮料订单,直到我们走近工作人员时才有人为我们服务。
然后一杯饮料送到了桌子上,但第二杯饮料,也就是水,没有送到。
我们旁边还有两张需要清理的桌子。只有在我们追水时向工作人员提过这件事后,才发生了这种情况。
我们理解天气恶劣,但两名服务员正在折叠餐巾,因此没有清理和点菜,这令人无法接受。餐巾折叠得非常漂亮,但我认为应该把注意力放在客人身上,而不是折叠成堆的餐巾。
周日的牛肉午餐端上来时,味道还算不错,但牛肉又硬又肥。有三个小烤土豆和烤防风草,配上胡萝卜和约克郡布丁。味道很一般。
然后我们去了甜点吧,里面有奶油泡芙和少量的巧克力酱,还有一些芝士蛋糕。这比不上网站上漂亮的甜点自助餐。
主人杰克很抱歉,并表示他们的厨房确实有些问题,服务员都是新手。
我对管理层的建议是培训您的服务员注意周围环境和客户,并确保相应地设定优先事项。
