Each sip was a journey of flavors, expertly mixed and perfectly balanced.

All you can eat breakfast. 👎 had a wonderful morning catching up with friends, decided to go to the whittle as we have usually had good food and service there. Although the food was the usual high quality the service was far below expectations. No explanation was given, but it transpired that you have to order everything from the table. We waited an extremely long time for our order to be taken followed by a much longer wait for the hot breakfast to arrive. Whilst waiting we eventually got the attention of the waiter to ask for more coffees and if we could possibly get some croissants while we waited. One coffee and two croissants were delivered for our table of six. When we next caught the attention of somebody we were told to wait. The waiting staff were closely bordering on unpleasant and certainly unhelpful, everything was obviously too much bother. Consequently I think it is fair to say the unlimited breakfast was in fact very limited and very much restricted to what the staff were prepared to do. Everybody in the party left feeling they had missed out on items they would have liked with the youngest of our party deeply disappointed.

26/3/19: Decided to risk eating here again and I'm not impressed. The table which I reserved was not prepared - there was no cutlery, napkins or condiments. When the 'waitor' eventually decided to bring the cutlery it was filthy. The menu was disgusting as it was covered in something sticky and the selection itself was rather lacking in variety. When the meals eventually arrived, I wasn't surprised by the fact that the food was cold and the peas were yellow. I wanted to complain but the waitor avoided our table because he most probably knew there'd be a problem with the swill he served up. I won't be eating here again unless the standard improves drastically.

31/5/19: The standard has improved a bit. Staff seemed to know what they were doing, the meal was warm and arrived quickly. The peas however... were disgusting - but then there's no...
