"Given one menu between three people and expected to know our order within five minutes of arriving; well, that’s the attitude of the young lady serving us as she blatantly rolled her eyes at us because we weren’t ready to order! The second time the young lady came to take our order, the last of our party was trying to find the pizza on the menu (as well as clearly trying to keep an eye on her small child! as it is on the downloadable version from the website and clearly advertised on the café’s Facebook cover photo!! To help my friend out, I asked the lady serving us if the café still served pizza, to which she replied no and did we need extra time, then once again rolled her eyes when we answered yes to needing a bit more time. I’d understand if the café was busy, but there were only three other small groups of customers in the café. It was just utter rudeness! The young lady is obviously very inexperienced when it comes to customer service and would benefit from further training/shadowing of more experienced staff. In addition to this, if pizza is no longer on offer, the café needs to seriously update what they are advertising online! I ordered the cauliflower aloo gobi dhansak jacket potato. The dhansak was so stodgy and tasteless, I didn’t enjoy it. At no point did any of the staff check to see if our food was to our satisfaction. Apart from the young lady taking our order having rolled her eyes at us twice, there was no contact from the staff until we got up to pay; the staff couldn’t move quick enough to clear our plates!! A disappointing experience, particularly as this café USED to have outstanding service and fantastic food! Wouldn’t recommend with its current standards."

"Sat 8/10/22..1900 – On good recommendation I placed quite an expensive order with The Lime Tree, for delivery. Over an hour and a half later, I’m still waiting for my food, so I made a call to the establishment, in order to find out what the delay was. I was told that my food was on its way and that it should be with me in 10 minutes. 15 minutes later, no food, so I made another call, this time to be told that it would be 5 mins. Anyway, over 2 hours 20 mins later the food was eventually delivered. No apologies from the delivery driver, who was on his toes straight away. Strangely enough the food was cold! I ordered the lamb madras, which came in a large foil container – 7 of the smallest pieces of lamb cubes floating around in the sauce, it was more like a lamb madras soup! The veggie curry was dry and lacking content also, the rice was dry and hard, the Bombay potatoes were dry and tasteless, the papadums were more like oversized crisps and as for the mango chutney, which came in the smallest plastic container ever, was watered down to max. ing awful, considering what I had paid. Not only does The Lime Tree’s integrity stink, their so called food was the worst excuse for a curry I have ever experienced, certainly not ‘A Delight in Every Bite’ as they clearly state and definitely not the ‘Gold Standard of Cooking’ they allege to ‘Maintain’. It was rank and something I didn’t ‘Indulge in’ which ended up in the bin! Is this the way you treat decent paying customers You should be ashamed of yourselves! I can’t comment about eating in, however I for one will not be using this establishment again and as for recommending, not a hope in hells chance..!"

"I took my wife and son who has disability to this pub for lunch. It was a very unpleasant experience. Initially i had to wait for about 10 minutes at the bar to be served as they had a problem with their draught cider. Not a problem, they took our order and we sat down waiting for our meal. After another 30 minute wait, the family on the table next to us were given their meals and yet they arrived after us. We asked where our food was. The waiter apologised and quickly bought our food. We asked for tomato sauce and we were given a bottle that was basically empty. (See photo!! . The family on an adjoining table gave us their sauce bottle. When another waiter asked how the meal was, I told her that the cod was luke warm and the mushy peas were cold. It appears that the fish had been put under a warmer lamp as the green cress (or similar had wilted. The meal was not nice. The waiter offered to replace the food but i said that we could not wait another 30 minutes for another meal. She said the restaurant was busy and there was nothing she could do. My wife went to the ladies and the floor was sticky with an unknown substance. We would not have minded waiting if the food was of good quality but to pay nearly £50 for a meal that was poor is unacceptable. To be given an empty bottle of tomato sauce for a family of thee was appalling and the attitude if the lady waiter was not customer friendly"
