   Great food and excellent service from the students. I would highly recommend a visit to experience what these young people can offer under.

   Go here often as it is usually very good so decided to take some friends along for the experience. Firstly the greeting at the door was not what we expected, the students stood inside , no greeting , no door opened , no coats taken. Water poured at table 3 glasses filled one with a quarter of water as non left , didn't return with anymore. A non interested student managed to take the order but came back as didn't remember it.ordered drinks , waited , and waited, first course delivered no drinks , eventually asked for them again , we managed to get served by a other non interested student no interaction , not a word spoken the teacher did manage to give helping bottleee opening ! The service and how it was presented was diabolical,.most of the crockery/ cutlery was plonked on the table in an disinterested manner almost thrown down .We were most surprised that the teacher in charge didn't check once what was happening, no interaction with student, never asked once if everything was o k ,or checked their performance which in our minds is the whole object as us as customers expect in the help of these students going forward with their chosen career's..We noticed that the bread should have been served with a pre starter we asked what this would have been ..and was told a fishcake and did we want it now ,this was offered prior to our pudding being served!!!! The whole experience was laughable which is what we did, .we were so dismayed had it not been a student restaurant we would have complained bitterly and walked out.We believe the responsibility was down to the teacher who did very little in guiding, teaching, observing and pointing our particular student in the right direction. His manner was atrocious no concept at all of customer care or hospitality. Lax approach, had we not had a sense of humour our night would have been a disaster. No one said goodnight , or a thank you is this not included in hospitality or even good manners? Come on these students need teaching the basics , how to present themselves they are in the public eye and need to learn a great deal from the very beginning of their training. The food was good.

   We went for a group booking with old comrades. It was signposted and easy to find. While it isn't fancy, it is modern and fresh. Though most of the staff are trainees (it's a college), they were very polite and professional, giving a very good level of service. They had a decent selection of drinks to accompany an excellent meal. The emphasis is on quality not quantity, so if you eat a lot you may be disappointed, however, the portions easily satisfied all (I think) of our large group of over 50s. Not a complaint among us. Would definitely eat here again, and would prefer it over many other 'posh' and not so posh restaurants I've eaten at.

   I came with my partner as we are ex hotel students. Service was professional and the atmosphere cosy as there were groups. Food was good too. Definetly good value for money. I highly recommend.

   Friends invited me - had zero to low expectations but was totally blown away by the sheer quality of the food. Sure, the staff are young and a tad awkward at times (which is why they’re learning) but in terms of each plate, what they put out is first class and hours later, still feel good about the evening.

   It was the most amazing experience. The ambience is very relaxing & quiet. The staff are wonderful & very professional senior staff are not intrusive. And the food. Well. There are not enough positive superlatives to express how I feel about the food! Just simply.. ...wow!!

   Have eaten here many times and the food and service are always excellent. However, last night's 3rd year student"s menu was exceptional. Apart from the perfect food, the service and front of house were brilliant. Thank you all for a lovely evening. You are all a credit to the college. Looking forward to my next visit.
