We love it here.We both had jacket potatoes. Mine had a generous filling of tuna mayo and the other was cheese and beans. It comes with a very nice side salad.

I have a dog at home, so one of the things I love about eating out is not having hair in my food. When my daughter discovered a hair in her food here, I complained. Instead of apologising, the guy belittled me and literally said there was "nothing he could do," as she'd eaten most of it.If you're lucky enough to find hair in your food at Fortes, make sure you eat less than half of it if you want any kind of comeback.Better still, go to Wetherspoons instead.

We just visited here, as the cafe we had planned to go to was closed.We went with our daughter and her two friends, two of them are Autisic, and affected by noise... So we stood in the doorway and decided if it was okay... They all decided it was pleasantly quiet enough.Although the decor is abit dated, we decided to stay and ordered our food.Three bowls of chips, two coffees, water and fruit shoot. All was enjoyed.They decided they were gonna treat themselves to a pudding.Ice cream for one, and my daughter ordered a waffle and banana, ( overpriced concidering she had no ice cream or cream or toppings as she is dairy intolerant) anyway she paid with her own money, and went to eat.Happily eating until she came across a hair! That didn't match hers or her friends, so she called dad over to take it back and complain, which is the right thing to do.Anyway he has greeted by a rude and overpowing man, who said the hair was on the side of the plate( which is where my daughter put it when she found it) and there was nothing he could do! Because it was 80% eaten... Well that's when she found the hair! And believe me being Autisic and germiphobic, if she had found it in the first bite that's when she would have stopped!No word of an apology!No offer of reimbursement! Or replacement!(We wouldn't of wanted another anyway! Especially now we know the hygiene isn't that great!)A very rude man indeed! And because of his presence, made my husband felt uncomfortable and unable to challenge... Obviously their tactic!Sounds like he needs replacing after having now read other reviews!(Wish we had read before we ventured in!)This could have been handled in a totally different way, because up until that point, it was okay and a few positives going for it. But as it is we will never go back and I will deter others from going also!

Stopped in for a cup of tea and a scone. It was alright, nothing special. I was looking for a more quaint tea room but Fortes had to do.
