点评:I regularly go to the Hancock museum (Great North Museum), which is a fabulous smallish museum with an interesting and varied collection, in Newcastle upon Tyne. Recently, the curation of the museum has greatly improved, in my opinion, with small, but noticeable tweaks, and I thoroughly enjoyed my most recent visit. There were useful information boards that put the content more fully into context and elements of the exhibit were interactive in fun and interesting ways. Even more regularly, I visit the museum cafe, which is near my workplace, either for lunch or coffee. It is my absolute favourite coffee spot in Newcastle (although the Laing Art Gallery cafe is also very high on my list of favourites). The combination of museum or gallery with lunch/coffee is so hard to beat. And, my reason for writing this review is because I visit so often but, to my shame, have never left a review. So, I would particularly like to commend the staff at the Hancock museum cafe, who are always friendly and helpful and who deserve a lot of credit for being amazing on a daily basis. They make the cafe a lovely and welcoming place to go, accommodating my frequent gluten free checks (because you never know if suppliers have changed). If I have one suggestion for the museum management it would be to have a compliments system so that positive comments can be relayed immediately to the staff. People are always quick to complain, but sometimes need to be reminded to comment positively. Thank you very much to all the staff at the Hancock Museum (Great North Museum) for consistently great service even when you are super busy.
翻译:我经常去位于泰恩河畔纽卡斯尔的汉考克博物馆(大北方博物馆),它规模虽小却藏品丰富,令人赞叹。最近,博物馆的策展水平有了显著提升,虽然只是做了一些细微但显而易见的调整,但我最近一次的参观体验非常棒。展品信息牌很有用,能更全面地阐释展品内容,而且展品的互动性也很强,趣味十足。我更常去的是博物馆的咖啡馆,它就在我工作地点附近,我经常去那里吃午饭或喝咖啡。它是我在纽卡斯尔最喜欢的咖啡馆(当然,莱恩美术馆的咖啡馆也是我的心头好)。博物馆或美术馆加上午餐/咖啡,这样的组合简直完美。我写这篇评论的原因是,我经常去那里,却惭愧地从未写过评论。所以,我特别想表扬一下汉考克博物馆咖啡馆的工作人员,他们总是那么友好热情,乐于助人,每天都做得非常出色,值得赞扬。他们把咖啡馆打造成一个温馨舒适的好去处,而且很贴心地满足了我经常需要的无麸质食品需求(因为你永远不知道供应商会不会更换)。如果我对博物馆管理层有什么建议的话,那就是建立一个表扬系统,这样大家的正面评价就能立刻传达给工作人员。人们总是很容易抱怨,但有时候需要提醒他们也要给予积极的评价。非常感谢汉考克博物馆(大北方博物馆)的所有工作人员,即使在非常繁忙的时候,你们也始终如一地提供优质服务。
