点评:We visit Traquair a lot and we love going there but the last few times the cafe has been disappointing, especially today. I arrived and told the cafe staff I was vegan and they said they had a couple of things I could eat. I ordered the soup and a sandwich option, the soup I ordered they didn't have but they did provide another option which was fine, and the sandwich which was meant to be humous and roasted red peppers turned up minus the houmous because they didn't have any left (Why advertise it on the board if you do not have it?) the sandwich was very very dry and the crisps on my plate were not suitable for vegans. I tried one and I knew straight away I couldn't eat them. I asked the staff if they crisps were suitable for vegans and they said no! They did apologise, they also told me they had vegan crisps available in the kitchen and that they would have a word with the chef, so I have no idea why they served me non-vegan ones! They also offered to make me another sandwich but by this point, I was getting irritated, and the sandwiches were not great anyway, and we felt we had wasted too much time waiting on our food by this point. I mean why not just make it properly in the first place? My nephew had the fries and they were not great either, took a long time to arrive. A pretty poor and expensive lunch. I'm not impressed at all. When we went to settle the bill I still had to pay for my food, they should have at least taken my meal off the bill out of courtesy. Hopefully, it will improve and I hope it gets better for vegans because my family and I love going to Traquair. Perhaps a packed lunch is the best option for our next visit. It should not have to be so difficult, I can't be the only vegan in the Scottish Borders!
翻译:我们经常去 Traquair,我们很喜欢去那里,但是最近几次这家咖啡馆令人失望,尤其是今天。我到达后告诉咖啡馆工作人员我是素食主义者,他们说有几样东西我可以吃。我点了汤和三明治,我点的汤他们没有,但他们提供了另一种还可以的选择,本来应该是鹰嘴豆泥和烤红椒的三明治没有鹰嘴豆泥,因为他们没有剩下(如果没有,为什么要在牌子上做广告?)三明治非常干,我盘子里的薯片不适合素食主义者。我尝了一个,马上就知道我不能吃。我问工作人员他们的薯片是否适合素食主义者,他们说不适合!他们道了歉,还告诉我厨房里有素食薯片,他们会和厨师谈谈,所以我不知道为什么他们给我上非素食的!他们还主动提出再给我做一份三明治,但到了这个时候,我已经很烦了,而且三明治也不好吃,我们觉得等食物的时间太长了。我是说,为什么不一开始就把食物做好呢?我的侄子吃了薯条,也不好吃,等了很长时间才上来。一顿相当糟糕又昂贵的午餐。我一点也不满意。当我们去结账的时候,我仍然得付我的食物钱,他们至少应该出于礼貌把我的餐费从账单中扣除。希望情况会有所改善,我希望素食者的情况会好起来,因为我和我的家人都喜欢去 Traquair。也许下次我们去的时候,打包午餐是最好的选择。这不应该这么难,我不可能是苏格兰边境唯一的素食主义者!
