TheForkUserA brilliant selection of vegetables for a vegetarian plus the Yorkshire pudding made a really tasty meal, extra wonderful with the onions and sweetcorn. The turkey was delicious for the meat eater.
TheForkUserAs with any Buffett type restaurant there are good and bad things. But that said you know what you’re signing up for when you go there. So queuing for your dinner is a given. The staff were lovely, food hot and plentiful and had a money off coupon too plus earned Yums - all in all a good night.
TheForkUserExcellent food and service, in a beautiful setting. We booked a table, which was inside the bar, which was fine but there was a table free in the conservatory with the great views of the river and ferry, so we asked if we could move, which was no problem the table was cleared and set right away. The food was delicious.
TheForkUserSuch a shame this venue is changing hands.The food was absolutely delicious a real treat, the young person who looked after us was friendly and gave us a very pleasant lunch time
_TI***txHad a work lunch at Duke of York. I would rate this place 5/5 mainly for the exceptional service provided by Carrie and Emily. These ladies really go over and beyond their duties to exceed brilliance in customer service. Food, starter was amazing, main Shepard’s lamb pie, I didn’t enjoy. brownie dessert was good.
TheForkUserI have been here with parents, children, the kids chums, my mates and a lady or five. This was for my 60th with the eldest, her Man and a lady chum of mine. The waiting staff were effective and courteous the foid was good and got to have a Dad chat this is the first time since my last parent passed a way so a comfortable and warm place. The walk in Dedham was very chilly a lunch to remember.
TheForkUserWe were a party of seven. The food was absolutely fantastic. Hot and fresh and perfectly cooked to order. The service was a little slow, but it was a busy Saturday evening so perfectly understandable. Would definitely recommend. .
TheForkUserWhat a tasty food we been served by the most friendly professional and caring team at Black Rock Restaurant! Myself and my son we thank you for your hospitality, for your respect and devotional service but most of all for your generous hearts ! I really recommend with all my being that experienced the great time in there ! Thank you and God bless all 🙏👼♥️
TheForkUserThe staff are almost more important than the food although that's great too. We were made so welcome. The whole evening was a pleasure.
TheForkUserThe food was good but the choice was poor. The menu has been reduced and it's not an improvement. And this "Italian" no longer serves pana cotta as a desert option.
TheForkUserA good selection on both the a la carte and set dinner menus. The food was excellent and we didn't have to wait long between courses. This was the first time we'd been to the Mariner and decided we wanted to try somewhere different to our usual restaurants. We will definitely be returning again soon.
TheForkUserthe staff at the main reception was very friendly and helpful, the beautician I had was brilliant she answered all the questions I had to ask and also gave me advice on skin care products I can use at home to get the best results for my skin, the members of staff at the restaurant was friendly I asked for a vegan opinion for my afternoon tea and I was given that, the afternoon tea was great I would definitely revisit again.
TheForkUserI've dined at yhe Beagle on many occasions the food is always great and the service excellent Our server Tab is brilliant friendly and helpful
TheForkUserThe window blinds needs replacing some of the customers were hindered by the sunlight shining into their eyes…apart from that staff were very friendly and efficient ambience was relaxed food was yummy wine was of good quality too
TheForkUserExcellent food, great service and friendly staff - it was a Tuesday lunchtime so not the busiest time. This is a great restaurant with a good menu choice
