When the steak finally arrived, it was swimming in grease, undercooked, chewy, and cold. The "spicy rice" tasted like a cheap packet version. I would have definitely preferred to go to Burger King at the nearby service station instead. I highly recommend avoiding this place!

It was a fantastic start to the day, completely satisfying! A big thank you to Karyn for your help and guidance; it was truly appreciated. read more It was a fantastic start to the day, completely satisfying! A big thank you to Karyn for your help and guidance; it was truly appreciated.

Have to say for a 'budget ' hotel our meal for 4 was very good in quality, portions and value. I went for the steak which can be hit and miss even in the best of restaurants but this one at Thyme was really very good cooked as requested (and yes the friendly waitress did ask), tender, all edible and a good size. I was very pleased. Favourite wine was listed too and at very keen price, so we won on all levels! Breakfast next morning was also more than adequate and very good value too. We 've stayed here a few nights during the holiday period over quite a few years now and whilst this Premier Inn sometimes is not quite up to scratch, even in this price bracket, the Thyme restaurant never let us down.
