Customer Review Summary
Front-of-house staff draw the most praise, described as friendly, helpful and accommodating to families. The Bruce cake and the house sauce are the named favourites, with one reviewer finding the cake dry until a server poured hot chocolate sauce over it. One takeaway order went badly: a much longer wait than quoted, no apology, mixed-up chips and a burger overloaded with sweet caramelised onions.

“DISGRACEFUL LEVEL OF SERVICE I was told my order would be ready within 10-15 mins for collection . They made me wait 40 mins on a Monday night . No sorry or any kind of apology and then when I got home with my order my 3 portions of chips were all mixed up at the bottom of the bag and the burger was awful. All I could taste was sweet caramel as they had filled it with more caramelised onions than burger . I thought I was eating a desert that’s how sweet it was . Absolutely awful experience . I would give them 0 stars if I could”
