Safe to say we weren't impressed. The Canteen went through a revamp in last few months. The menu has been streamlined and they are now open past 5pm on Thurs to Saturday.
We popped in for lunch and found the place mostly empty, despite passing packed out eateries on the way, never a good sign. The staff came across as unenthusiastic and the restaurant lacked any atmosphere.
The lunch menu consists mostly of £8 or £9 sandwiches or salads. It was difficult to find something I found appealing and for the price, I expected more. We usually indulge in a cuppa and some cake, but we only found some lacklustre tray bakes and scones.
In the competitive Belmont Area I'm amazed they've managed to last this long. Hopefully they find their grove soon. read more
