I'm real disappointed with my visit this evening. I just left there. There were three waitresses…read moreworking. I found that out when we were about to leave. Only one acknowledged me even though I stood at the counter finding out whether we had to seat ourselves or wait to be seated. One of the reasons I stood at the counter is because there weren't many people in there and i'm almost positive that we would have never been acknowledged because I was standing there and wasn't even acknowledged right away. There was one lady that finally came to take my order. After that there was the bartender, who also happened to be our waitress as well. Here I am thinking that she was the only one there, since it was pretty slow. But that wasn't the truth. My husband had to get up to pay the bill since no one came back to the table for him to pay. He found out that there were two other waitresses on the other side of the establishment that should have been working. But they weren't. They weren't helping us like they should have been. The food portions were very small and without seasoning. No one ever came to check on us during our dining experience until we had finished our meal. Our table never got cleared off until the end, because I am assuming that this waitress that did finally wait on us, who was also the bartender, was just too busy working at the bar to come back. Someone did try to help us at the end but it was too little, too late. We still left a tip though. The macaroni and cheese had very little flavor and my husband's was cold. My mashed potatoes and gravy was also cold. They need to step their game up. I'm also disappointed in those small buffalo chicken egg rolls as well. They were extremely small for the price. I've had much larger egg rolls than that for the price that we paid. For almost ten dollars, they should have been much larger. Reply to the so called owner.... What you just stated isn't true. And it's more of a reason why I will never come back! There's no reason for me to look for anything to complain about. Don't tell me that I give what I get. From the time I walked in, I stood there for a long time before anyone acknowledged me. As a business owner, you are supposed to make your clients happy. There's no reason for you to try to blame me for being unpleasant toward anyone. I'm the one paying my money to patronize your establishment. If everything was okay, then this would not have been a review that I would have left. You all need to get it together. I never had an attitude, but I was disappointed because I had to stand there and no one did acknowledge me. There was no reason for me to make this up or to lie. What's even worse is instead of you trying to apologize about what was done wrong. You instead threw the ball at me like I was the problem. You are absolutely despicable!!! The other thing you need to do is go get rid of those flies in there. It only takes a moment to get a fly strip. We should have taken our food to go. Then we wouldn't have had to deal with all the flies or the poor service. The owner left a nasty message towards me like I was the problem and this was my reply to her. I explained my experience that she got upset by it. No one should be treated this way....

This week's Wednesday, our girlfriends of CHARLOTTE County (CCGF) traveled to Ft. Meyers to…read moreexperience BUCKINGHAM FARMS. We were 24 in total. When you arrive there is ample parking, and very pleasant views of their agricultural. There are 85 acres, which houses their store, small self served dining and eating area both inside, as well as outside. They have a rustic barn for special occasion events. Since we were a group of ladies, we made arrangements for service to be provided, versus self serve. In hindsight, once we completed our luncheon, we should haves opted for self served. We were told there would be an up charge for personal service, which became $7.00 per person, plus a 20% tip and tax's. This referred to as personal service was not anywhere near what was provided. First, our food orders, needed to be in days before our arrival. No appetizers were available, soup, salads etc. The room where we were assigned to was ample and pleasant. However, first we had to pay for the order we had preordered. There was ice tea, water, ice, coffee, etc. preset up. Then instead of a server delivering our entrees, a large multi-layered cart rolled in with our preordered lunches. Truly, the ambiance was immediately impaired and negligent. Our attendees, we had a mix of loving the ingredients of their orders, where others were totally disappointed. As their food was bland unfavorable and unappealing, especially at the price of $21.95 per person with a mandatory 20% gratuity. It needs to be validated that our group never has an issue with pricing of their special excursion lunch events. However, BUCKINGHAM Farms did not meet our expectations. After our lunch was served, there was no service, no one came back to ask if the food was ok, was there anything else needed. Our servers were gone. Came back to remove our plates never asked, if we were happy, how did we enjoy the food. In initially setting up the reservation, our ladies first visit to this unique venue m, were very excited. So, it was requested that after lunch, since it was an 85 acre farm, could we have a quick walking tour. Anna, the director agreed and says she would guide us around the path and explain what we were seeing in the tour. After our lunch, we were all excited. As I went to find Anna and said we are ready for the tour. Anna had a surprise look as there were others with me, act like it was the first time she heard the request! I repeated the conversation, and she said oh no. We do tours in the morning only, and there is a charge for a tour. Needless to say, what a disappointment! If your plans are to go to BUCKINGHAM Farms, our recommendation is not to go as a group. Or if you do, GO self service!

My group of seven traveled to Alva Country Diner for breakfast last week. We went because of a news…read morearticle about this homey establishment possibly shutting down in a few months if a new owner couldn't be found. When we arrived we were told that they will not be shutting down. Great news. The breakfast menu is fairly small but everyone in the group found something to order. Service was great, coffee kept coming, staff is friendly. We are putting them on our schedule for our group breakfasts.

And from the outside might even give some "city" folks pause as whether to enter or not. But it is as advertised -- a country diner. Emphasis on country. And popular with the locals. Inside, it's pretty rustic too. Tables and chairs in a main dining room. But the staff is friendly and down home. There's a menu plus blackboard specials. My husband got a meatloaf sandwich. He said it was good, but not remarkable. It came with lettuce, tomato, and onion. He left off the lettuce and added mayo. The sandwich came with pickles and coleslaw. My meal was very good. I got the quarter broasted chicken, white. The chicken was a separate wing and breast and perfectly cooked with a crispy coating. Not sure whether it was baked and then roasted or baked and fried, but I liked it. It came with two sides -- mashed potatoes and yellow gravy and the veg of the day, broccoli (meh. Southern vegetables are always too overcooked for me). The portion was large enough that I took half the chicken home (for dinner). I'd order this again. We did not have room for dessert. They had a number of pies listed on the black board-- I'm assuming house made -- that would have appealed. I'm glad we came to check them out. Now we know.
