Waterfront Restaurant And Bar

visited before 2 weeks for a family birthday meal. there were about 15 of us. waited for over 30 minutes for drinks and some of them came wrong (the waitresses tried to remember everything instead of writing them down). they waited 20 minutes to take our food order. only 3 of the meals were to be taken from the kitchen, the rest of us ordered carveries, but we had to wait for more than 30 minutes to eat. we sat up, and those of us, who had carousel, had to go down for the carousel and bring our tellers back to the small staircase. totally unpractical for children, older family members or persons with mobility problems. I had worn a long dress and heel, obviously not expected that this had to be done so that I fought to carry my plate and not drive up the stairs. the waiting staff offered no one to help, just stood at the foot of the stairs and watched us. Many of the waiting staff seemed quite young, which is in order as I did the same at 16. I did not find them really rude as some other reviews say, but they were very quiet and shy and do not seem excessively knowledgeable. the menu is not cheap, but the quality of the carvery was very cut. the bark was impossible to cut and chew. the brat potatoes were boiled so that they were only hollow dishes of crispy dried fat. none of the food was labeled at the carvery, so I have some red cabbage on my teller, not to realize that it was pickled that I did not have a fan of. the drinks are expressingly expensive. even a big koks was £4. the setting was nice, but I am not in a hurry back. parking is not great in busy times.

A hidden gem in Harborough with more than enough space to host a party. We hired the upstairs room and hosted an afternoon/evening party for my wife's 30th Birthday. The food was great, we had the opportunity to swap in items for the cold buffet...for 45 people. Drink service was great too, having two bar staff upstairs for our guests. The weather was amazing and the team ensured we had a dedicated space outside also for guest to enjoy the weather. Nothing seemed too much trouble and we got just what we paid for, an excellent venue, great food and drink, friendly and attentive staff. This is the second event we've hosted here in 5 years, and perhaps not the last.

the waterfront is at a beautiful location and makes full use of the space. visit them on a narrow boat and meet local friends, we found the restaurant very welcoming and flowering, obviously a popular place to visit. but we found the meal quite cut and. the waiter ordered the wrong fish dish and one of our party had to sit without meal while the rest of us ate. we had no excuse for this or real apologies and therefore I would not push myself back in a hurry. really bad. rachael

back to our favorite restaurant where we have never been disappointed. tasty eating served in generous proportions on pipe hotplates. three of us had the fish and the thrice boiled chips (shock), which simply melted into the mouth. I had the baked chicken breast with roasted. new potatoes and mixed veg with a creamy pfeffer sauce. the meat was tender and was wrapped in crispy panko bread crumbs. tasty and great value also. see picture.

I only sat on food for 50 minutes, while people who have been ordered long after us were served. the personal didn't bother when we complained, we gave up and left no excuse from anyone they really didn't care less.
