Great place, good food, prices reasonable.We visited with 12 people in our party for niece's 18th breakfastand the staff were fantastic, polite and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. With a big order all food was served altogether at the same time ?Special shout out to "Annie" ...wonderful service, a credit to Ashfields .

Lovely spot for lunch, beautiful interior and delicious food and coffee. Friendly tip to the staff from a long-term waitress, better to say you're shutting and are welcome to have a takeaway coffee than to serve it, tell Alexa to turn the music off, sweep round the restaurant and count coins. Other than that, a perfect visit.

Excellent choice and quality of food. Can get extremely busy so worth making a booking. Lovely venue and outlook with outdoor sitting for summer. Can get noisy and stuffy in winter. Check there are no events happening in grounds on carriage centre website as it can be quite busy on those weekends with on site attendees in situ. Friendly helpful staff

David Thorne

One of those hidden gems. Lovely, peaceful surroundings. Had breakfast and lunch, both very filling and tasty., Didn't have to wait long, food was served hot and with a smile from the very friendly and efficient staff.If you just want to pop in for tea/coffee and cake you wont be disappointed, all the cakes are home made by local people and if you like savoury then the sausage rolls are huge and ?Will definitely be returning ??

Excellent food, spotless restaurant and really friendly staff. Always made to feel welcome, wether it’s a visit just for coffee or tucking into one of the well prepared meals. Thoroughly recommend

Found them very inhospitable today. Both Google and their website (Facebook) say they shut at 15:00 which we checked before travelling out there, but that isn’t the case. We arrived in the restaurant at 14:33 for lunch, at which point a member of staff shouted over that they had stopped serving food at 14:30. We mentioned we’re just a few minutes after and sandwiches would be fine, but we’re told everything’s turned off in the kitchen apparently (although as the kitchen door is open, we can see food is still being prepared for the customers already in the restaurant). Of course restaurants have to shut at a time, but if you close to customers at 14:30 , please be clear online about that’s the time you close, don’t say it’s 15:00.The great thing about this is, we went to the Black Lion in High Roding instead, hadn’t eaten there before, they a bigger menu and it’s great food served all day and the service was great too, we’ll go there next time too.

Good points: staff and location.Less good points: The food.It was the epitome of mediocre.You know that feeling when you're playing it safe with food? Well, they took that concept and ran with it. Edible, yes. Bland, also yes. It's like the seasoning heard there was a party and decided to skip it.The coffee was not the saving grace I'd hoped for (who puts brown sugar as a topping on a cappuccino). Not bad enough for me to send back, but very much middling.Shame really, it's a lovely location. This alone will probably draw us back in; however, we will be sticking to cakes or something simple.
