Afternoon Tea At The Garden Room

"Firstly, it's a burger, just get on with it. Slow service all round and food took 20mins or so to arrive. Cotswold pace, perhaps? Maybe I'm too impatient. The burger itself is average at best. I've made better at home. It's rather dry, despite what the menu says about a 7oz burger being more moist. Burger sauce is too sweet, too much and overpowering. Bun cold to the touch. Chips are fine but nothing dramatic. SFC is a Southern fried chicken fillet sliced up. On lettuce. Makes me think of a cheap kebab shop in [any student town]. Halloumi sticks are ok but wouldn't do it again. Overall, avoid. £60 for 2 (two! burgers and 3 sides is a shocker (drinks are pricey . Plenty of decent eateries in Broadway. Heading further afield, try Beefy Boys even Five Guys offers better. Service charge of 10% automatically applied though this is taken off without fuss. Service is inoffensive, and inefficient."

"rebooked the garden space in the dormy house during the stay near the fish hotel. the environment was very warm and welcoming, and overall eating was very good. but the service was lacking and made us confused by reconciliation. In view of the thoughtful and extensive weinlist we could see one of our favourite mixes from South Africa on the menu. after ordering, and about 15 minutes later, the server back to say there was a mistake, and they put the wrong varietal on the list and wanted to serve us a completely différent wein from this manufacturer. we ordered another bottle in harmony with the food we ordered. but our appetizers came before our wine. wait another 15 minutes (we are now 30 minutes in our dinner without wine) and the waiter comes with another bottle saying that they have lost our bottle, but for us to drink this while we wait. no explanation and not even the wine she poured. that was the last thing we saw from our waiter, because somehow the room was busy and she took the other guests for the rest of the night. we finally got our wee who was brought to the table without the cork. strange practice to get a restaurant of this caliber. when we finished our dessert, we fought for 20 minutes to get every server to recognize us or to delete our records. So we went to the server station to ask for the bill. we have observed our server work at least seven different tabs before we had to go up a second time. when the bill came, the server did not even ask us how our dinner was. we gave our credit card and the other server took it away. she returned 10 minutes later to say that she lost the connection. she gave us the card back and canceled the processing statement and said she couldn't charge our card. she did not know what to do and asked if we were with him at the reception (even if we were not guests of the hotel) will not return."

"We (family of four with a teen pre-teen are staying in Childswickham just outside Broadway for a weeks holiday so thought we’d try the Childswickham Inn Brasserie as we could walk there through the pretty village, it has great reviews and it’s dog friendly. We booked for a Friday evening and were given our choice of tables in the very pretty garden area. Everything about the place is wonderful. The pub itself is a lovely country style inn with a very warm welcoming atmosphere. The outdoor area is beautiful with a lit pergola under canvas canopies and very comfortable chairs and roomy tables. The staff were genuinely friendly and helpful and made a fuss of our two Labradors. The food was superb. Honestly some of the best traditional-but-next-level pub fare we’ve ever had. I had the pie of the day which was lamb, husband had Cumberland sausages and the kids had burgers. All completely homemade, served quickly, fresh piping hot and with generous portions. Husband suffered from extreme pie envy when he tasted my dish! We couldn’t resist the puds so opted for sticky toffee puddings and chocolate brownie. Again, all homemade, generously portioned and utterly delicious. The food was so good we decided to spend our final meal here and opted for Sunday lunch. We all had sirloin of beef which were served with the best (and biggest! Yorkshire puddings we’ve ever had. We’re from Yorkshire and we know a perfect Yorkie when we see (and taste one and these deserve the highest praise. The beef was perfectly cooked, thickly cut and it melted in the mouth. It was served with a generous portion of roast potatoes, cheesy leeks (a personal favourite! , a selection of perfectly cooked veg lovely rich gravy. Desserts were equally fabulous. Genuinely up there with the best food we’ve ever eaten and exceptionally good value. I just wish it was closer to home as we’d be returning constantly! I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Perfect food, wonderful service, lovely ambience and surroundings and great value, more than deserving of five stars. Thank you for two wonderful visits, you were a highlight of our holiday!"

"I had a disappointing experience at this cafe today. The two staff members at the counter were quite miserable. I wanted to order a panini and coffee to go, as the cafe was full. When I noticed some people leaving, I asked the lady at the till if I could quickly eat my panini at one of the tables. The other lady who was cleaning the tables rudely told me that there were people waiting for the table outside, so she had to clean it. I was taken aback by her tone, but didn't say anything. Fortunately, an elderly lady leaving the cafe noticed my discomfort and kindly offered me her table. This made me feel more welcome. When the first lady finally served me my panini, all I could see was her frowning face. I even had to reassure her that I wouldn't take long, but she still didn't say a word. I left feeling disappointed and unwelcome. I believe that being hospitable and treating customers with kindness goes a long way. Unfortunately, I won't be returning to this cafe and I wouldn't recommend it to others. It's not just about serving food, but also about making customers feel welcome and valued. Sometimes a simple smile can make a big difference."

"I was part of a group of around 25 people who reserved a meal at this restaurant after a day out on the nearby Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway. All the tables were set up for our arrival, and the staff quickly took our drink orders. (The first beer I received was a bit off, but was replaced promptly without any issues). Our pre-ordered main courses were served as fast as the kitchen could prepare them, with a diverse selection meaning it took a bit of time (but it was better than rushed or poorly cooked). My choice was the homemade pie of the day (beef that day) with mashed vegetables (carrots, beans, and broccoli) and it was excellent, with a satisfying portion size. For dessert, I had the sherry fruit trifle, which was equally delicious. While it wasn't cheap, the price was fair for the quality of food, nice atmosphere, and attentive staff who worked hard with us and other customers. Would I return? Absolutely, especially for a similar outing with friends and coworkers."
