   This was a revisit following a previous excellent meal experience a couple of weeks ago. Tonight’s meal was also excellent and credit also to the friendly attentive staff . How lucky to have such a nice local place for food and drinks .

   Perhaps was a kitchen overload but poor food and slow arrival. Staff were super apologetic and offered a discount but, as a regular, standards have slipped of late. Please do better.

   Really lovely restaurant but food could’ve been better for the price. Our Camembert wasn’t cooked and having sent it back, we were served the same one microwaved and all the cheese had poured out onto the plate. The burger was small for the price as well, with a tiny portion of chips. Service was so slow we missed our afternoon reservation elsewhere which was a shame considering it was for someone’s birthday. Was a nice venue but disappointing experience.

   Food was disappointing and small portions - avo toast was brown and mushy, croll only contained 1 sausage and kids banana french toast - banana was unripe. Used to be a lovely place for brunch but is going very downhill - been disappointed last 2 visits and would avoid going back. Staff were lovely but didn’t seem very sure of orders, seating which was just unusual. I don’t mind paying for quality but the menu has cheapened with quality

   The staff were very welcoming and attentive making our anniversary meal one to remember. The service for food and drinks was perfect meaning we didn’t have to wait for anything we needed. We’ve been here a few times and always enjoy the experience and definitely will be back.

   Starters were nice. Mains, cod well cooked but sauce a little bland as was the prawn pasta sauce. The staff were very attentive and friendly. Whoever is in control of the music, needs to learn to “ read the room”. There were many people eating and talking to each other with rock electric guitar music playing. This was early evening 30.12.24. Waiting staff were lovely and made the experience. Lovely nice surroundings. Food needs more flavour.

   Breakfasts not up to the usual standard on the last couple of visits, link sausage pre cooked then just warmed up, soda bread cut too thick and served hard rather than freshly toasted, coffee served in a small cup which doesn’t last you through the meal.

    As non alcohol drinkers, there is often a feeling of pressure by serving staff in other restaurants which was not felt at all at Mclarens. Pleasant attitude by non pushy staff was much appreciated. Food was lovely. A ceasar salad, a philly cheesesteak, a pudding with 2 spoons and coffee. All delicious.
