Read moreWe had out wedding reception at Farmer Copleys in March 2019 in "The Barn" which is their function room upstairs above the cafe.
It was such a beautiful and unusual venue, the room looked beautiful and everyone commented that it was a "hidden gem". We had canopes outside and then up to the room for the night. We got to have photos taken in a private garden on the grounds too.
Andrew - the events manager - was so helpful throughout the whole process. They couldn't do enough for us to accommodate what we wanted. We had 70 guests which was a good number to fill the entire room with enough room left for the buffet and dance floor. They also worked so well communicating with our events decorator and DJ and balloon company and cake company... It took alot of stress away from me (I didn't have a wedding planner) that I could just put them in touch with each other and they liaised the plans.
And the best bit - the food! I read that the food is the main thing guests judge your wedding on and the food was absolutely gorgeous. Especially the canopes. Other weddings I've been to serve tiny tasteless pastries. These were halloumi fries, mini (bit not so mini!) beef burgers and mini fish and chips in a cone. They were devoured by our guests. They then served enough lasagne, chicken curry and steak pie that there was enough for seconds! Everyone was full up by the time the cheesecake, sticky toffee pudding and brownies were brought out!
Honestly can't recommend this enough for your...
Read moreWe went for Sunday lunch and were approached immediately and given a table. Or food and drink orders were taken and payment required with order. This was OK if unusual for our eating out experiences. After a short wait our food arrived on piping hot plates but unfortunately the food was only aired. We asked for our drinks from the food waitress. Mo drinks came. We asked 3 different waitresses for our drinks and after me saying this is ridiculous we were served with them. In the mean time our favourite veg were served in a separate dish. Cabbage and broccoli BUT it was 80% stalks on both. I couldn't eat either. After we finished our meal 20 minutes passed and at least 12 waitresses passed us empty handed but never collected the plates. They were coming to the end of their shift and were standing about chatting to each other so not rushed doing other things. Eventually the haid waitress came and asked if we had enjoyed our meal so zi told her what had happened with us. She apologised and offered free puddings but we didn't want anything free. They really need new people to do the prepping. It was disgusting. I live locally but would never go for Sunday lunch again. I also advise.no one else to go unless they want stalks, cold food and very...
