Brisket And Brulee

I’ve been a few times before but this is the first time with my Rottweiler, a breed not many people like.. I have to say the staff were great with her, cuddles & fusses from multiple staff, she got given a sausage and a water bowl before we even sat down. Definitely dog friendly - thank you! We had breakfast and the food was fab as always. Well done to all the team.

Came to the forest rest this morning for some breakfast and we really enjoyed it! Atmosphere was great food is delicious and the staff couldn’t have done enough! Huge shout out to Amy extremely accommodating and couldn’t have done enough for us! We will be back Thank you so much everyone at the forest :)

We were advised to pay a visit after hearing that the owners had purchased the 50’s diner so we went for a late breakfast this morning. It’s nice idea for a small restaurant tucked away inside the garden centre. Food was lovely as we the service, however we did feel a little claustrophobic tucked away without any windows, but that didn’t distract from the quality of the food, cleanliness or service. There are also dairy free alternatives which is a bonus.

Fantastic little gem of a restaurant. Loads of choices breakfast, brunch, lunch, afternoon tea, cake selection. Dog friendly & wheelchair accessible. Staff are fantastic & your always greeted with a warm welcome & smile. Onsite parking free of charge. 5***** Great independant restaurant with lots of choice.

What a gem 💎 Loved the decor, the whole cosy natural vibes🌲🌳🌿 Absolutely Loved the delicious food and fantastic attentive staff 😇 The Vegetarian options and were 👌mwah!, I had the Nut Roast. And the food was the Best i have had for a long time!. I just wish we could've remembered to capture our desserts which were simply gorgeous!. I had Biscoff Bread & Butter pudding and ice cream, my hubby and friend had Sticky toffee pudding n custard which got a big thumbs up👍👍my other dear friend also had raspberry Frangipane and ice cream, delightful😋. Thank you for a fantastic birthday Sunday lunch! We will be back very soon!.

OK, so not knowing we had to book as its our 1st time coming to the restaurant, asking for a table for 2 to just be told "we don't have a table as we don't accept walk ins" was a bit of a frosty reception if I'm honest - it was a dark haired girl with tattoos. So, as myself and my wife were walking around, I decided to see if I could book a table through the website. I did for 2pm (20mins later than when we were rudely turned away). I get that it may well be your policy to not accept walk ins but we could have been advised of this in a more polite and professional manner. 2pm arrived and we were greeted by another member of staff (a smiley girl with a nose piercing). From this point is where our opinion changed for the better!!! The food was amazing and plentiful. The waitress that took our food order (Georgia I believe her name was) was amazing!! Polite friendly and really engaging!! This is how it should be done. Had we not been greeted by the first girl, it would have been 5 stars all round. This, however, will not put us off coming again!! Thanks to the girls that made our visit not a wasted one (we were recommended this restaurant by friends of my wife) and to Georgia....the sticky toffee pudding did not disappoint!
