During our recent visit, we had the pleasure of being served by Lucia, and I can honestly say her attentiveness and exceptional service made our entire dining experience fantastic. From the moment we sat down, Lucia welcomed us with a warm smile and an energetic yet calm demeanor that set a great tone for the evening. What really stood out, however, was how dedicated she was to ensuring every little detail of our meal was perfect â especially when it came to something as simple as garlic mayonnaise.
Weâre huge fans of garlic mayo, and itâs one of those things that can really elevate a meal for us. When we asked if there was any available, Lucia immediately responded with enthusiasm, as if she completely understood the importance of this humble condiment in making our dining experience just right. Weâve been to restaurants where such requests feel like a burden to the staff, but not with Lucia. She went out of her way to make sure we got exactly what we wanted, even checking with the kitchen multiple times to ensure everything was just as we liked it. Within moments, she returned with the garlic mayo, and it was absolutely spot-on. It was the perfect addition to our meal, thanks to her swift action and dedication to customer satisfaction.
But it didnât stop there. Throughout our meal, Lucia continued to check in on us, ensuring our drinks were topped up and that we had everything we needed. She managed that perfect balance of being attentive without hovering, which really shows her experience and skill as a server. Every interaction with her felt genuine â she wasnât just going through the motions of customer service, but genuinely cared that we were having a great time.
Her personality truly shined throughout the evening. Lucia was friendly, conversational, and made sure to take the time to engage with us while still being incredibly efficient. Itâs rare to find someone who can multi-task like she did â managing other tables while still making us feel like we were her priority. We could tell that she had a great rapport with the rest of the staff as well, which contributed to the smooth, enjoyable atmosphere of the entire restaurant.
By the end of the night, we couldnât stop talking about how her service had made our dining experience so special. Itâs not just about great food â though that was certainly a part of it â but about how the service elevates the entire meal. Lucia went above and beyond in so many little ways, and it didnât go unnoticed. Itâs clear that she is a real asset to the team, and I canât wait to return in the hopes of being served by her again.
If youâre dining here, be sure to ask for Lucia â her impeccable service, genuine care for her guests, and attention to detail (garlic mayo included!) will ensure you have a memorable meal. This was truly one of the best restaurant experiences weâve had, and we owe so much of that to Luciaâs exceptional service. Highly...
   Read moreHats off first to Mia and Alisha who were running the bar and table service. We visited after the match and had drinks until the kitchen opened at 5. The menu is superb with a fish of the day option. Lots of vegetarian and fish options. Mia and Alisha knew the menu well and could advise on the allergy that one of our group had and explain the veggie and fish options. We had a great table by the front window. The pub looks pretty grim from the outside but the food being served is like something from a five star restaurant. I had fish if the day which was lemon sole, prawns and mussels with mash and wilted greens, green lentils , a tomato sauce and carrots. It could have lost the carrots as they were not required. It tasted like heaven. My friends had chicken Kiev, prawn and mussels linguine and a Korean chicken burger. All top quality dishes beautifully presented and brought to the table. Quality was checked by both ladies at different times. The desserts were amazing. The chocolate pot must be mentioned as being a thing of wonder! And the coconut ice cream needs a mention. I canât remember the last time I had such good service and such fantastic food and I review a lot of places. Was in town for the football match so not a local just with locals. I would highly...
   Read moreFirst time here, never been before when it was the Morley. Nice decor, quite dark but good and cosy, clean as you'd expect. Staff are very good, maybe a hint of being green but thats fine. Was about 1/3 full. Food wise we were a bit disappointed, expecting better. We had 4 starters: Ham hock terrine - was gd and meaty, of the 3 elements on the plate we found it odd that the toast was over charred, as in black all the way through, but we didn't worry as we'd over ordered. Crab and prawn spring rolls with bisque - for me they didn't contain much other than stodge, although the t'other half quite liked them. We both agreed the bisque was not great at all, it was really bitter and over tomatoey whilst being watery. Mussels - the best part, really good, washed well, plump and great flavour in the sauce. Beetroot and whipped feta - nice dish, bit annoying the candied walnuts were missed off, when queried a pot of plain walnuts arrived - nevermind. Finally we added parmesan and truffle chips - fairly good flavour but not much parmesan (struggled to find it tbh) plus they'd been sat on the pass for too long, so were just about warm.
All in all, bit...
