The Queens Inn — Restaurant in St Martin

My partner and I came to the Queens for lunch. My food was fine, but my partner ordered the steak Guiness pie which he was looking forward to, but really didn’t like. It was incredibly watery, lacking flavour and only had the top which was pastry. ||||When the manager came to take our plates, he naturally enquired was it ok. My partner simply said that it didn’t taste very nice, it was watery, not really a pie and asking for it it be removed from the bill. ||||You would have thought that we had said the whole pub was a disaster. The manager was aggressive and rude - he snatched the plate, saying that he didn’t think that anything was wrong with it and nobody else has complained. I pointed out that his manner was rather out of order and it doesn’t matter about other complaints. He argued with me and stomped off! ||||We didn’t have to pay for it, but the manager’s manner put a stale taste in our mouths. It’s a real shame as a customer should be able to point out faults without being victimised for it. I can safely say, they have lost...

How to describe the Queens, a little gem!||The property is clean, tidy and homely. From the staff in the bar Jack and Elvis (yes his real name)to Marianne the lady cleaner all very friendly and helpful.

A bargain fee of £1.25p for the trip which means you can go anywhere you like on the island for the same price.||Overall we really enjoyed are stay here and...

We booked a room at the Queen's Inn for a little staycation, as we were dining in a nearby restaurant for my birthday. We've stayed in most hotels in Guernsey, including 5* and based on the room alone, I think this has been my favourite. Our room wasn't large but it was just right really. It had what I'd called "proper" furniture and a a bed just like my own at home...not a divan in sight. I felt really relaxed and comfortable and it felt like a bedroom rather than a hotel room. It was clean and cosy, with lots of lighting options, well placed mirrors and sockets and an iron and ironing board (a rare thing these days). It was a bit hot but a decent fan was provided. The room was tucked up at the top of the building some heard nothing from the busy pub below. Brilliant. We did miss breakfast though as we just couldn't bear to leave...
