The Bay Tree — Restaurant in England

We were in there when a previous owner came in at 3.30pm....their closing time, and was refused service. They open and close when they feel like it, anyway...without notice. the Oasis across the road is more reliable & customer-friendly. We shall avoid number 13 in future. Response It seems you misread my review. We were already in the bistro eating a meal when the previous owner came in with a lady (wife?).. We were customers of said visitor when he owned it many years ago.. Your opening hours show closing at 3.30...and no 'last orders'... PS He didn't seem bothered...WE WERE!...Thanks for your response...I think not! I recognised a customer of mine from 45 years ago....your friend? MY ATTENTION HAS JUST BEEN DRAWN TO THIS REVIEW IT APPEARS WHOEVER JOHN DUNNE IS HAS BEN PRIVY TO CONVERSATION AND HAS ACCESSED YOUR REVIEW SITE VIA WHATEVER MEANS....COULD EVEN BE VIA MY PC. THAT'S ANOTHER MATTER I'M REVIEWIING!. I DON'T 'DO' ON-LINE REVIEWS...I JUST DON'T PATRONISE ESTABLISHMENTS I DON'T LIKE. WHEN I OWNED THE TALBOT CAFE I HAD A NOTE ON THE MENU "PLEASE ADDRESS COMPLAINTS IN PERSON TO THE PROPRIETOR".....WHICH I DO! THE LADY I CAME IN WITH ACCESSED A SITE THAT SAID YOU CLOSED AT 4 PM... i CAN'T HELP THAT. REGARDS...

I have just eaten at the baytree with 2 friends,we ordered the £6.50 breakfast there,arriving at just gone 10am we got seated and ordered our food and drinks,the order arrived at our table 10.25ish,we had all JUST finished our breakfasts and were still enjoying our coffee and teas when the owner i pressume it was came to the table at 10.45 informing us he needed the table by 11am...i was not only embarrassed but taken aback by this,i have NEVER had this happen before at any eatery,especially when ordering 3 meals,it cost my friend £20 and we weren't even really given time for our breakfasts to settle before he approached us with this...the baytree is a place i will NEVER go back to due to this and also will be informing all of my friends and family members of our experience there and telling them this is NOT a cafe to go to,it was disgusting for this to...

I am a regular customer in the Baytree, and have been for years even when the old owners were here, now I could give a bad review with the old owners as the place was dirty and staff weren't friendly, but when the new owners Tom and Dan took over, they have breathed life into the place, it is so clean, food absolutely delicious, lovely relaxing music and all staff are so lovely and friendly it does get very busy in there as it is a popular restaurant, but I see from other posts that some people do not like waiting and are very rude about it so my message is if you don't like freshly cooked food and having a bit of a wait, is to go...
