Machynys And Brasserie

Delicious breakfast. Lovely view. Really friendly and helpful service. Clean tables, cutlery and crockery

Lovely location . Waitress was lovely too. Had our starter very promptly but had to wait ages for the main course and it wasn’t that busy ! Food nice but overpriced . The sea bass was cooked well and tasty but the sauce was totally uninspiring. It could be so good there !

Great for a pint or coffee.. No good for food although expensive.. Also, the kitchen is on on odd hours.. I would suggest a dinner on nearby pubs and come down to Machynys for the pint :

Last time we visited was in 2015 when I gave three stars but this time four, the ambience is very good overlooking the golf course. The service from the servers was excellent but a ‘tad’ slow in delivery of the food after ordering, prices remain high on the scale for the region but similar to those seen in Sussex where I am from. Being a golf operation some of the clientele seem to be very ‘snooty with a look at me attitude’ but hey this a golf club. The food was well presented and prepared, tasty and reasonably hot but a bit more in quantity would satisfy anyones appetite. Would I return then yes but need to consider the high prices against other establishments we have become accustomed too in the area on my regular visits.

45 mins wait for the main course. No salads on the menu. Chose Truffle chicken with gnocchi. It was as if the dish had been kept under the warming lights for 30 mins. The chicken breast was dry and tough, the gnocchi was burnt and as dry as leather. Very poor, expensive and will not be returning. Pity as the ambience and views are first class, a wasted opportunity to create something special.
