As a weekly visitor to the school Rooms I was thrilled about the opening of The Assembly so booked for last weekend. The food was excellent and the staff were lovely but still learning. Service was slow but apologies were made. The decor is wonderful but upstairs was incredibly warm even with all windows open hopefully some air con installed for warmer weather. The upstairs room ceiling is quite low contributing to the heat and how noisy, music was too loud, it was. The dark turquoise bench upstairs is too high and even the tallest lady was laughing as she was looking down on her husband and giving him orders. It was very uncomfortable, needs removing. Worse still one of the directors children was kicking a football around in the restaurant, though chastised he continued elsewhere in the building and hit one of my party as she came out of the ladies toilet. I was so disappointed as being reasonably local we were looking forward to being regulars. Won't be ordering wine again as a mediocre bottle of Sauvignon was over £30. Will give them time to learn before...

I called in for dinner last night. The risotto was ok but not too exciting. The service was a little wanting, everyone was perfectly polite, but the new business is is clearly aspiring to provide an exceptional customer experience. It has invested heavily in the interior, the presentation of the menu and the online presentation, but the staff are quite young, probably quite inexperienced and as such the feeling is that youāre being served by people just doing part time work from the local area, which can still be great, but train the team and set the benchmark. Playing pop hits like Wetleg in a Resturant where youāre charging Ā£20 a dish and in this setting just doesnāt fit. A senior manager who is able to set the standard and build a great team perhaps!?
Still it is a new business that has only recently opened and Iāll certainly come back, particularly as they offer a Sunday roast.
Definitely...
