Dukeries Lodge - Speisekarte

Run down. Glasses filthy. Not following guidelines, have to fetch your drink from the bar, mr no personality who works behind the bar not wearing a mask. Was going to eat but don't think i will bother

Stayed here for 1 night. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Room was small, smelly and dingy. Bathroom was tiny and in desperate need of renovation. Everything was dated. Wouldn't stay here again.

Food ok but needs work on communication We had our main meal and the kids said they would like a ice cream . This was at 7.50pm but was told kitchen closed but says 9 on menu but notice meals still leaving kitchen until 8.40 . No apologies just kitchen closed. Speisekarte ansehen

We held my mums wake at the Dukeries. Have to say that John and the staff were great. Plenty of food in the well priced buffet. Everything ran very smoothly. Only problem was lack of cups and hot water for tea and coffee but was rectified quickly. Thanks for making a difficult day easier.

Stayed for 4 nights to see local family and friends. The bathrooms need the flooring replaced and the ceiling was pealing above the shower. Staff were friendly and breakfast was good. The beds were clean and our double was a good size. Evening meals are cheap so you get what you pay for but better than cooking for yourself.

Sadly in my view this place is looked dirty and tired now. I think it’s in dire need of some TLC. The carpets leading in and out of the kitchen are black with dirt. Similarly with the light fittings and decor, they require a good clean. The food was actually quite average along with the service. I understand it’s cheap and cheerful, however that doesn’t mean it should be dirty! Speisekarte ansehen

Visited twice this week as Staying in Centre parks where food and drink prices were very high! On both occasions we received a very friendly welcome, had different meals each time. All were very good and very good value for money. Exterior and interior are a bit in need of refurbishment but very clean and tidy. Great place to go to if you are at Centre parks, only ten minutes away. Will definitely return when we are in the area.

Arriving at The Dukeries, there is ample free car parking. From the outside it appears reasonably well maintained but inside it is tired and shabby, over due a refurbishment, with torn seating and peeling paint in the bars. Whilst it was busy, attracting families, dog friendly and parties going on and quick, friendly service, there wasn’t a ‘Quiet’ space to sit without noise. Staff are friendly, although eating food behind the bar was not something I’d expect or the sight of staff seemingly leaning up against bar furniture, when the place could do with a good clean.

If a friendly welcome, your custom appreciated, good service and quality food is your thing, avoid this place.. Mr Manning himself serving behind the bar, chatting on his phone while preparing drinks, couldn’t manage a greeting as I stood at the bar, not really a friendly welcome, more an inconvenience in a pub that was barely busy for a Sunday lunchtime service. Ordering a drink, clearly saying no ice, be put ice in the glass, obviously attention and communication skills are not his strength, having also to repeat my drink order. Let’s try food and see if this is any better on the board fish pie, I asked if it’s available, it’s a simple enquiry to make sure it hadn’t ‘Sold Out’ , retrospect... Speisekarte ansehen
