We were excited to visit again after enjoying a barbecue there during the summer. However, we were disappointed to find that the quality had decreased significantly. Despite raising their prices by £3.00 per person, they have cut back on a number of menu items such as carrots, broccoli, swede, spinach, and sausages, leaving only a few peas and beans. This was very disappointing and we will not be returning with friends and family in the near future. It's a shame to see such a decline in what was once a great dining experience.

We plan to come back soon as it's being relaunched this month. The staff was very professional and friendly, and they were willing to go above and beyond for us. It's the perfect spot for a large group gathering, with plenty of space outside for the kids to play.

The chef didn't even know if any of the food contained nuts!! The most disappointing part was the staff. There was plenty of them but apart from one young girl, the staff were totally disinterested. They were all young and untrained. We had to chase them up for everything including a drink. They just didn't have a clue. It was so disappointing.

All youngster without any supervision and full of attitude. The worst was that we had to pay 10% towards the appalling service which isn’t a problem if the service was good. We had to clear our own glasses. Wanted to try this instead of Toby but rather going back to Toby!!!! Will never return to Blakes. I hope management is reading all these reviews.
