    As a long-time patron, I have come to expect a certain level of quality and service from your establishment—particularly given the premium prices charged for both food and beverages. Unfortunately, our experience fell well short of those expectations.

    Disappointing. We last ate here about 3 years ago and had a really good meal. This time the food was not so good. Asian slaw with Korean chicken burger consisted of a few bits of sliced onion and red pepper, and the pastry on my pie was overcooked on the top but practically raw on the bottom. On a positive note the calamari starter was delicious. Hardly anyone there so no atmosphere (possibly because it was a Monday?)

    Lovely, tasty roast chicken - could have been a bit hotter though - that’s my only negative about it. Very tasty. Lovely setting and would go again

    Food was excellent and well worth the wait. The wait, well I would say on a busy Mother’s Day serving 5 courses and garden open too, they should have had more staff. I noticed the servers and kitchen weren’t communicating very well causing us to wait roughly an hour for 1st and 2nd course to arrive. We had to ask for dessert and coffee to come at the same time, as our bottoms were numb. Total time in the restaurant was 2.5hours. They were understanding about us wanting to take the service charge off. If you are looking for a slow afternoon with amazing food and gardens this is your place, but we will be back.
    Filly InnResponded on April 5, 2025
    Dear Lana, Thank you for your feedback and for choosing to spend Mother’s Day with us. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the food and our gardens. We apologise for the wait time and any inconvenience caused. Your comments about staffing and communication are noted and will help us improve. We look forward to welcoming you back for another visit. Best regards, The Filly Inn Team

    We booked for the five course Mother’s Day special menu with champagne on arrival. Champagne on arrival it wasn’t. Had to ask for it twice at 15 minute intervals. Shown to our seats and then just ignored until I got up to complain. First course was artisan breads which again we had to ask for and arrived after having been sat down for fifty minutes. I have to say the Ham hock terrine was superb, however the main course of roast beef was very ordinary with only two small slices of beef and a huge whole undercooked carrot! Sweet was sticky toffee pudding with ice cream which was nice, followed by coffee and truffles. The restaurant had obviously overstretched themselves on what was a lovely sunny day. Service charge was waived, which was just as well.
    Filly InnResponded on April 5, 2025
    Dear Richard, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear that your Mother's Day experience did not meet your expectations. It's disappointing to learn that the service and some aspects of the meal fell short, especially on such a special occasion. We appreciate your kind words about the Ham hock terrine and the sticky toffee pudding. Your comments about the champagne, timing, and main course have been noted and will be addressed with our team to ensure improvements are made. We hope you might consider giving us another chance in the future to provide a better experience. Kind regards, The Filly Inn Team
