We go here regularly and have never had a problem. The food is always nice whether it is carvery or the normal menu. Food is hot and plenty of it !! Staff are nice, always busy which speaks for itself so food is always fresh

Came in a visited as a party of 30 guests, this table was booked on Friday 1st April, we were asked for a pre order as we were a large party and it was half term. Completely understandable, I myself brought the pre order in on Monday morning when I visited for breakfast, this gave the staff 2 days to read everything through and make sure any issues were brought to our attention before we arrived so everything ran smoothly, well I was so wrong! Food began arriving at 6:15pm, a few adults meals and then followed by a few kids meals, my dad had finished his meal by the time my 4 year old niece managed to get hers, we expected as we had a pre order that all food would be out promptly and we could eat as a family for our birthday celebration, again how very wrong was I. Meals were coming out wrong, stuff that had not even been ordered was sent to out table, we had to check on our copy of the pre order to make sure what was on there. Once food had all arrived we had no check back, the only one received was by a young waitress (did not get her name) she was very attentive and polite and the only one who did ask if everything was okay at the end of our dessert orders. Once purchased desserts, I myself and my cousin ordered 3 ice cream build your own sundaes, 2 arrived and no sign of the 3rd, I asked the waitress after 15/20 mins if there was any sign, she had been sent back with a whippy ice cream bowl as that’s ‘apparently’ what was ordered? We had receipts to prove this, so went up and spoke to the manager Craig who was so abrupt and rude and practically shouted telling us we did not order that you get whippy ice cream with the kids meal, in which we showed him the menu and explained that is what is offered, he then replied with “those menus should not even be out on the table” and snatched it from her then throwing it behind the bar, then asking again “what do you want me to do about that?” We replied that we would like the sundae that had been paid for and was still missing from the table. Waitress brought sundae out in a couple of minutes, again very polite and apologetic, when it in no way was her fault. The same manager sent the young waitress back in to us to say “I have been told you need to start paying your bill” clearly in his mind that we were commoners that would walk out without paying, disgusting discriminatory behaviour from a superior member of staff. We decided that it didn’t seem like we were wanted by that particular manager so a lot of us paid our bill and left, he then proceeded to shout across the bar to my sister who’s birthday we were celebrating that 5 lots of chips and a kids meal needed paging for now, in which she did, however that kids meal was sent back as it was wrong and was swapped for something else, so tried charging us for something we did not have. When approached about this, he proceeded to run away into the back and did no deal with the situation, left his other members of staff who were very helpful and kindly refunded the whole kids meal and all of the chips (which we did not expect as the chips were eaten) thank you to that member of staff, very helpful you should give him a promotion and give the other one a lesson in how to speak to customers and ditch the aggressive attitude!We did not then see Craig the manager for the rest of our evening, I assume this is because he could simply not be bothered to deal with the complaint. Absolutely disgusting and unprofessional behaviour from him, I expect you shall sort this in a professional manner and give him a fine lesson in customer service!Although finally please thank the rest of the staff who were kind and attentive our whole visit.

Popped in on the off chance for Sunday carvery. Well, what an amazing experience for the price is fantastic. Staff were welcoming and the kids popped to the play area after. Big shout out to the staff as they were very busy. Recommend booking as we only just got in after a table were just leaving! Great place will return!

Stopped off on the way to Skegness, and glad we did. Staff inviting and could not do enough for us. great lunch menu and the kids meal deal is a bargain with a pudding and drink. Unfortunately didn`t have time for the play area but maybe stop back on our return journey. Deffo recommend!

Been here a few times. It's cheap and cheerful, the food was good. I had the buttermilk Italian chicken and it was great! Only thing from making it 5 stars is that there was only one vegan/dairy free desert and it was out of stock so my friend couldn't have a pudding which made it awkward for me to sit and eat mine in front of her.Don't expect too much and you don't be disappointed

Never had a bad meal when eating there, with lots of choice on the menu. I’ve always received prompt and friendly service. Definitely can’t beat it for the price!

Staff seem lovely however one of the managers always seems to carry a chip on his shoulder. I believe many (10+) years ago we had a disagreement (non violent etc) but he seems to carry this on his shoulder.It would have been over something daft like food not right.. but I feel it still 10yrs on lol- I hope it's this. Or maybe he's like this to everyone 🙄

We went for breakfast as a party of 6 at 11am. Felt safe and welcome, good food and service . Would recommend and will go again

1st time visit...Food is lovely & you get your money's worth. Prices very reasonable. I had the lasagna with a salad & it's was very tasty. Menu is varied & has vegetarian options...though I didn't notice if there are vegan/gluten free options...sorry. Friend had the Chocolate Fudge cake for dessert & it was more than enough for two. Staff are friendly, professional & polite. It was busy but not crowded as room between tables so not to feel "crammed together. Has a play area , outside seating areas & 2 separate facility options. Plenty of parking. Atmosphere was relaxed & we will be definitely going back.
