We held a meeting there. Excellent service and the staff very accommodating. The facilities up there are excellent to host a small meeting. The food was excellent and customer service was excellent. I will certainly be hosting another event up there is the summer as they have excellent view of the Wharfe valley and dogs are allowed on the patio area.
Had afternoon tea for my wife's 60tb birthday with a number of friends. Although it a bit of a journey from home for an afternoon tea we have been each year on my wife's birthday for the last 3 years. The staff are always so friendly and the afternoon tea is one of the best we have ever had, with very genious portions, good job doggy bags were available. Perhaps a few more savoury items would be nice For the previous 2 years we have eaten on the terrace overlooking to beutiful country side where we were allowed to bring our dogs, this year however with bad weather we had to eat inside which mean we had to leave the dogs at home but still a very enjoyable experiance. While a retirement village resutant is not the first place I would think of for a great afternoon tea, I would thoroughly recommend it, The other food items look great as well, perhaps an excuse to go back and try more that just an afternoon tea. I am sure we will continue to visit.
It is a place to visit. The restaurant is cozy and the atmosphere is quiet. Great food and great restaurant especially the terrine with plum sauce and the rest of the food was a pleasant surprise. Alex the waitress was a great host.
A small group of us(16) had afternoon tea in the restaurant recently. All cakes, sandwiches and homemade sausage rolls absolutely delicious and staff were very pleasant and attentive. They also accomodated gluten free and vegetarian requirements. Will definitely go again.
Wonderful experience, the food was excellent and the service attentive, without being intrusive. As this restaurant is in a retirement complex it won't necessarily suit everyone's taste, but it is more than worth the effort to sample the afternoon tea. The other meals served while we were there also looked lovely.
