Pre lockdown we used to go to The Observatory every month or so for breakfast as a treat. We liked the buffet style cooked and continental options as it meant we can satisfy ourselves and the kids with what we wanted to eat. This was the first time we've been since lockdown restrictions have eased a little. When we went in, part of the restaurant not normally used for the breakfast service was closed off. A one way system has been implemented with stickers showing directional arrows on the floor to guide you around. It appears that a few tables have been removed to help with distancing, although the layout has a number of booths, some of which are blocked off currently. Screens are used in places where they can't otherwise enable distancing. Whereas it used to be a buffet, you now need to place an order with one of the servers. You can request additional items later if need be and our servers did come by regularly to check if we wanted anything else. Hot and cold drinks are still self-service, as is the toaster. Unfortunately, it appears the changes have reduced some of the options. For example, pancakes are not an option for the continental breakfast, and there was no fruit smoothie option with the juices. Our breakfast was still a pleasant experience but I do hope that once the current crisis is over that they revert to the buffet style.

3 of us had dinner here tonight. We felt really safe and comfortable with the cleanliness and one way system set up. We were taken to our table by Craig who was really attentive throughout our meal. Craig served us quickly and noticed when our drinks were running low and asked if we wanted another. Food was lovely, my Husband had the Mixed Grill which he said was one of the best he has had. Our Daughter opted for steak from the kids menu, this was her first time. Craig suggested to have it medium so that it wouldn't be tough for her and I'm glad he did ( I naturally would have said well done) she enjoyed it. We couldn't of asked for better service, he was such a lovely guy and our food was spot on. We ate here on a whim as we were passing from a day out and we were all glad we did. We will definately be back

What a horrible place !!! I went here for a meal for three people and the service was beyond slow It took ages for the starter and the rest of the food was really slow at arriving to and the only thing that I liked was the dessert and leaving On top of this the attitude off the female manager when I went for a job at this establishment was diabolical with her behavior Never ever for the rest of my life will I return here because I prefer service with a smile and being treated with respect to

Booked a table for my sons and partner and the service was amazing.. the waitress was very helpful and friendly. With it being a difficult time all round I could not praise the meal and service enough Would highly recommend the hospitality of the restaurant

First time trying this place today and wow was I impressed! The burger I had was outstanding as were the chips on the side. Not to mention the treacle pudding desert with custard which also tasted amazing although I was so full towards the end! There is Also a bottomless drink option too which is a bonus! The staff all seem friendly and attentive, definitely a place I will be returning to!
