Average rating: 4.6
I had booked for my wife and I to have Christmas lunch at the lawns restaurant , having previously dinned there before the last occasion being October 2024 and found the food OK. At £115 per head I was expecting something a bit over & above the standard but WOW was I disappointed. Worst Christmas Lunch EVER. Upon arrival we were given a glass of champagne which was nice from then on it was all down hill, taken to out table given some bread so hard couldn’t eat it then came out starter ordered Ham hock & chicken Terrine served won ton soup !!!!! didn’t order that, was not even on the menu but let it go it's Christmas after all !! then the main event Christmas lunch was to be free range turkey with trimmings what arrived was two slices of stuffed turkey roll that tasted & looked synthetic, 2 roast potatoes, overcooked, 1 carrot the size of my little finger 1 parsnip even smaller, 2 Brussel sprouts the size of large peas undercooked. It looked & tasted so bad that I didn't finish what was offered.it was not only the quantity of the food provided but the unacceptable condition I did complain but got no feedback. To finish, Christmas pudding, which was good, and the mince pie at the end of the meal served with tea was also good but £115 for Christmas pudding & a mince pie. I think not. I would say that all the front of house staff were good but let down by the cooking side won't be going back again.
