What OnAir31910924003 doesn't like about The Bunbury Arms, Great Barton:
I went to this restaurant for breakfast and it was not great. The staff were very young and seemed inexperienced in providing good service. The plates at the breakfast buffet were cold, so by the time you returned to your table, your food was also cold.

A recent visit to this restaurant revealed a mixed bag of experiences. While the breakfast buffet left much to be desired with cold plates and slow service, the carvery received rave reviews for delicious food despite lacking portion sizes. The festive atmosphere was dampened by scarce Christmas offerings and inexperienced staff, although the manager displayed a helpful and friendly attitude. Those who enjoyed the carvery praised the flavorful beef and attentive service. Overall, the restaurant has been making positive strides since reopening, offering tasty dishes at reasonable prices amidst a welcoming atmosphere. An establishment worth revisiting for a satisfying dining experience.
