Whittle's Restaurant

Took my mom for afternoon tea and had the best experience! Not only does the venue itself look beautiful, the display of food looked so appealing and staff were super friendly and attentive! Definitely would recommend

We went for lunch for my birthday, very quiet but lovely place, well it was a Thursday afternoon in February. I had the beef dish it was soooo good! Staff very friendly and welcoming, as it is a big building and can look quite daunting but beautiful inside!

We had a lovely lunch in comfortable surroundings. Good service there were 10 of us.

Terrible tough sirloin steak

An excellent venue

Savoury afternoon tea for two at 15:30. We had the restaurant to ourselves, music playing in background, restaurant looked lovely. We were greeted, seated and served by a young man, who initially was very attentive and polite and gave us the impression that we were in for a treat. We asked for one of the egg sandwich to be replaced by an additional cheese sandwich, which we were told was no trouble. We were informed at the start that endless hot drinks were included in the price and our choice of drinks could be charged during the sitting. Afternoon tea was brought to the table by a lady. Unfortunately, as requested the egg sandwich had not been replaced by an additional cheese sandwich and we were warned that we may want to wait for the scotch eggs to cool down as they were hot and runny. The sandwiches, quiche and savoury scones were tasty. After being served and during our 1.5 hour sitting we were not again approached by a member of staff. We had to call someone over to ask if we could have a second drink, the coffee latte was freshly made, but the filtered coffee was obviously not fresh. We had to leave the table and approach a member of waiting staff to ask for the bill and to pay. On leaving the restaurant, we seen no members of staff and left without a thank you or goodbye. A shame as £60 was spent for a birthday celebration and it was definitely not the service or experience we were expecting. However, on paying the bill, we were informed they were busy preparing for a Burns night celebration, so maybe we just choose the wrong day and time for a visit.

Excellent meal as usual. Little disappointed with the usual impeccable service. A new member of staff needs a lot of in house training to maintain the standards. Dan was excellent but the more experienced staff need to pass on their expertise. Parking: Leave enough time to find a spot

Great place for lunch, the staff couldn't be more friendly and the food was a pleasure. Looking forward to going back highly recommend.

We met some friends for lunch today, fantastic service with great staff.
