Feedback
Reviews of Sheldrakes praise the view, terrace and standout seafood/Sunday lunches but note inconsistent service, variable menu depth and occasional private-event closures.
I had high hopes for Sheldrakes. It is a little gold mine with the location but unfortunately I don't think they have the right people running the place. The staff are clueless, not a single clue how to treat customers. We had to ask for cutlery for our seafood platter. The menus were pieces of paper stapled together. The seafood platter was mostly cold and I could have done a better job cooking at home. Wasn't sufficient for 2 people and not for £30. I am giving 2 stars for the view and location. The patio could use some serious TLC. I cannot believe how such a great place could be let down by the people taking care of it.
Entertaining just to experience the poor service. On a sunny day it has a great terrace.
AVOID! I had booked a table online for the evening of Friday 9 September and subsequently received a confirmatory email . However when we arrived the restaurant was in darkness, doors closed and a table shoved up against them, yet a wedding party was going on in the upstairs function room. I wish I had seen the scathing reviews on Trip Advisor first as I would never have booked to go there ... it seems that this is far from an isolated incident unfortunately. I have since emailed Sheldrakes but unsurprisingly they have not had the courtesy to reply.
We've not been here for quite some time but the food was amazing!
We booked for a group of 30 for my mums 60th birthday. We were given an area upstairs that was stunning with great views. Food was fantastic and friendly service! Would definitely recommend!
