Mama's & Leonie's (City Centre) - Mr & Mrs Seville -

Rating:

Ate there Saturday 13th May. Great food. Four people eating. All meals delicious. I had gluten-free pizza, chilli con carne. So impressed, will definitely be eating there again.

Bowshaw Inn (Dronfield) - Lisa Blenkinsopp -

Rating:

Just been for a Sunday lunch. It was very busy and the service was poor to start. This was compensated by giving our starters for free. Carvery very nice, with loads to chose from. Would visit again but on a different day when it's less busy.

Browns (City Centre) - Cawthorne -

Rating:

Visited Browns for our wedding anniversary, we had afternoon tea. My husband had booked for the occasion. Disappointed with the service and food. Staff were unorganised and vacant, no one did the courtesy check back to see if everything was OK. It was a quiet Sunday afternoon.

The pots of tea would have been lovely if the water was hot, and when we mentioned this it was topped up with the same lukewarm water. The afternoon tea was OK, but lacked taste. I expected better, especially for the price. A few items tasted as if they'd been left to air in a fridge, and not as they should have.

I really wish it had been better food, service and atmosphere!

Elmwood Farm (Beighton) - Lynne Yearby -

Rating:

Just had a meal with my friend. Mine was OK but my friend found a hair underneath the chips! We told two separate waiting staff when they asked if we enjoyed our meal but they said sorry but no offer of any money back or a voucher! We were really upset and certainly will not go back or recommend it as a place to eat.

Peacock Inn (Owler Bar) - Carmel Hartley -

Rating:

We have been regular lunchtime diners at The Peacock and have always been satisfied. We visited on 26th April and were very disappointed.

I ordered from the main menu as usual but was brought a meal from the lunch menu but continued all the same. However, I found my meal was cold, especially the mushy peas and chips, which were clot cold, the fish being slightly warmer. I mentioned this when asked if the meals were satisfactory and was asked did I want to do anything. I said leave it as I could not be bothered but was told the chef would be told. We did not hear anything further. An apology would have been nice.

Probably will not visit again. Not used to such poor service previously.

Little Italy (Dronfield) - David Smith -

Rating:

We just spent a wonderful evening at this place to celebrate our daughter's 21st.

Ambience excellent, food excellent, service excellent - Sam, Kelly and George couldn't do enough. Thanks also to the kitchen!

BIG THANKS for a wonderful evening.

Phoenix Inn (Ridgeway) - Pat White -

Rating:

Been a regular customer at this pub-restaurant for many years. Sunday lunch was the most disappointing. Despite the restaurant being quite empty, the staff were not the most welcoming. Where has the front of house "landlord/manager" gone?

Then the food. It was dried-out before it reached the table, and looked like it had been thrown at the plate. I know everything coming out of pub kitchens is either from a freezer or microwave, but the service and presentation should compensate. This didn't.

We shall continue our family get-togethers elsewhere.

Mirpuri Dhera (Darnall) - Mrs Khan -

Rating:

Very dirty place. Floors are dirty. Very bad customer service and very rude staff. I can't believe it, how come they do business like this? Never again, crap food.

Bowshaw Inn (Dronfield) - Jennifer Varma -

Rating:

Very disappointing. Booked a table for my mother's 85th as it was local to walk. Must admit we had been before (two years ago) and it was a lovely roast with good service.

The waitress did ask us what we would like to drink but had to come to check three times because she had forgotten.

The carvery service counter looked in such a mess! Not at all inviting. The meats were not hot. The fresh carrots coming out of the kitchen were raw! I did quietly mention this to the young chef, who quickly took them back in the kitchen. The cauliflower that had been sitting there was not cooked, as the fresh one brought out wasn't, too!

Would have understood if the restaurant was busy!

I felt so guilty having booked a table here as my daughter, son-in-law, and son had travelled by train from London for lunch with their grandparents.

I had called in two hours before to confirm the booking, as I had booked it online and no one was answering the phone Saturday morning! Somehow sensed it wasn't going to go well!

If it hadn't been for my mum's 85th and not wanting to complain and spoil her day.

Very disappointing.

Phoenix Inn (Ridgeway) - Mrs A Woodhead -

Rating:

We had my mum and dad's 70th wedding anniversary here. The food was fantastic, the room was lovely, and the staff couldn't do enough for us, they couldn't have been more attentive. A massive thank you to Mel and her team. Highly recommended.

Mamma Mia Pepe (Hillsborough) - Dianne Ronksley -

Rating:

I booked a party of 32 women for a special occasion to visit the restaurant on Saturday night. I had gone to great lengths to pre-book all the food, which I didn't mind, as this made it easier to cater for such a large party. But I had made 2 mistakes and was told by the waitress in a very abrupt manner, that if I couldn't rectify it I would be charged for the extra meal!

I have to say at this point that apart from a couple of meals the food was lovely, but the waitress had an awful attitude all night. She was banging drinks and food down and sliding glasses across the tables instead of giving everyone a glass individually. She had a face like thunder all night. She was very very rude right from the moment we walked into the restaurant. We were a total burden to her and she made it quite obvious. She even apologised to one table for being stressed! She didn't apologise to me! I'm sorry to say but the majority of us have stressful jobs but don't treat people like she treated us. It was awful service.

The chef was adorable and he and his colleague worked hard all night to deliver our food. I would suggest replacing the waitress with someone who can handle stress. Thank God she's not caring for people! She'd know what stress was then. She spoilt the evening for me and I won't be returning and neither will any of my party. I can't tell you how bad her attitude was. If it hadn't been a special occasion I would have walked out and forgot the whole thing! By the way the young waitress was very sweet and polite.

I hate complaining but I do feel very strongly about this. You will lose a lot of custom with staff like her.
