Changing this review to knock off a couple of stars after returning to the place just a week after giving it five stars. We'd enjoyed this place so much, we went back a week later, having found ourselves in Windsor again. Well, what a difference a week makes. Will leave details of last week's visit below, to show you how good they can be, but must add how this week's visit was utterly spoilt.
We asked for the same table as the week before, as it had been perfect for our little boy, with room to park his pram beside us and have h safely seated between us and a wall. This week, the same waitress that had been wonderful, instead bossed us into another unsuitable table claiming the table we'd sat at a week ago was a hazard for prams, even though she remembered us sitting there and we could not see why.
So we were forced to sit cramped amongst a throb of other diners, all hemmed in with diners and staff knocking our chairs as they passed and our boy able to clamber on and off his chair instead of being wedged in between us and a wall.
Cakes and drinks were as perfect as the week before, but we weren't happy there. When paying, I mentioned to the staff how wonderful it had been a week earlier, but how forcing us to a particular table had ruined this visit. They just got a tad defensive.
So, would we go back now? We'll try them again but be ready to walk back out if they start bossing us to sit at tables we don't fancy when others are empty with no clear reason why we can't park our pram beside us. Five stars knocked down to three stars in a week. Pity. Previous week's experience below.
in here for a rest and a snack, rather than a full meal on Sunday afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed it.
We needed help unlocking half the door to get our pram in, but someone came running and once in we were very way welcomed and seated. Decor is very dated, but in a likeable way that suits and all was clean.
Waitress was superb, and all other staff seen seemed very jolly.
Cheesecake and carrot cake were large and delicious and my hot chocolate was just right.
Well looked after and very happy, we will make this our stopping place down that end of Windsor from now on.
They do a menu that varies, for full meals. Pasta, pizza , burgers, sandwiches and the type. read more
