Had lunch here. Very pleasant. Dog friendly - ate in the bar area (full menu). Food was excellent, as was the service. Charged-up my car over lunch - located adjacent to hotel reception (50Kw - Polar network).

Surprisingly good food, had the duck and it was cooked perfectly. Dish was put together extremely well, quite inventive executed flawlessly. Very happy. Service was slow to get drinks but I appreciate the nightmare that all restaurants have at the moment with trying to get/retain staff. Cocktails were nice too.

Totally disappointing, we went for my Mothers Birthday meal, 5 people in total, table booked for 7pm on a Monday night. My first time eating here I had high expectations given The price point which is inline with that of Farmer butcher chef at Goodwood, so you would expect the similar service and quality, well it was well below par, bread board arrived arrived and just placon the table, no communication made with us, “is there anything I can get you, do you need any drinks etc.” despite there being multiple empty glasses on the table. Mains arrive but steaks were mixed up and on the wrong plates with the wrong sauces to accommodate, again not asked at the time is everything okay can we get you anything, plates served but the the waiters just retreated without a word, My steak was without exaggeration the worst cut of meat I’ve been served at this level, the fat and sinew made it a chore to eat, cooked perfectly however but cheap meat is cheap meat, Pork belly was quite frankly a laughable portion size, it was circa 60 x 40 x 10mm in size. The Salmon was overdone, The vegetables were good and the flavours were good but unfortunately the main item of the main meals let it down. At the point of orders being taken I made a point to say what would the birthday girl like, on the off chance this might prompt a nice gesture from the restaurant but I think that fell on deaf ears, nothing wrong with that but those are the elements that separate the wheat from the chaff, whilst at the kennels last year we hadn’t even mentioned it to the waiters there however they had overheard conversation and had bought out a whole array of goodies FOC which for a Goodwood was a pleasant surprise. When we refused the service charge and explained why we were told it was due to them being short staffed, being short staffed is no excuse for not engaging with you table, noticing empty glasses and providing good service. But if that was their excuse then they should make it know from the outset that things might not be up to standard. All in all I think vast improvement is required Before I would return again.

Everyone raved about this place. So was expecting a great dinner. So let down, food came cold, over cooked wings, major disappointment. First and last dine experience here.

I spoke with the fabulous Catherine about arranging a garden party for the Local Ladies members club and she put on the most fabulous event for me. The canapés were delicious, the drinks were great and the service was amazing. We enjoyed a few games of french boules & prosecco pong (that I brought along). The staff were all very friendly and full of smiles despite having a busy day with other functions going on, they did an amazing job. The gardens are stunning with plenty of outside seating, gazebos etc- such a great venue for an event. Highly recommend! Thank-you everyone for making our day so special.
