5 /5 Jon Ashley: Its not very often I am left impressed, but the Orange Grove was very good. But this was more to do with the staff who were absolutely fantastic. Lauren was simply awesome. We hired a pod for our traditional Christmas meal with friends. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, the staff were exceptional. And more importantly the food was actually very good! What was more impressive was that it was served to us piping hot, especially considering as we were outside in the furthest pod from the kitchen.
My only one gripe is that the heating inside the pod is terrible. The little lamp that doubled as a heater hanging over the table was completely inadequate - add to that the door did not seal shut leaving a large hole for wind and cold to penetrate the pod, meaning the tiny heater stood no chance. This really should be rectified, especially for the cost of hiring the pod as we eventually relented and sat there with our coats on! Aside from that we had a great night made even better by the wonderful staff and good food.
