The Bay Tree Restaurant - (Near , South East)

5 /5 Lawrence Biscontini: Neighborhood Gem Ambience: so many fireplaces to choose from, great decorations, warm & cozy, and even better than lamb next door Service: remembered me from day to day and even my choices; prompt and attentive and made everyone feel welcome from large groups to single diners. Food: delicious: my only suggestion is to serve a piece of bread and butter with your delicious soup! --what a shame!

5 /5 Sunny Bap: Had a lovely cream tea, lovely and cozy with a lovely warm fire in the winter. Lovely fresh scones with cream and jam. Staff were very attentive and polite. We left headphones in the restaurant and one of the staff kindly found us while we were driving away to return it.

5 /5 Grae Laws: The Bay Tree restaurant is part of the hotel. The decor is fresh looking, contemporary in styling and spacious. We found the staff to be extremely helpful. The menu is ambitious and broad in its offer. The wine menu had a pairing for just about every dish. Our food was perfect, service exquisite and overall we had an enjoyable time. Do try it soon, Im sure you wont be disappointed.

2 /5 Caroline Grinnell: Staff were, & ambience was, perfect! Staff could not have been more attentive. However our afternoon tea, (which was a gift), was very disappointing. Consisting of THREE finger sandwiches each, (note: NOT 6 slices of bread, but 4 slices cut into three thin parts each), and each quite soggy AND stuck to the napkin on the plate! Scones were small, and too hard. In adfition, we ordered the artichoke soup, and chips which I rate 10/10. Pity that the intended highlight, (the afternoon tea), was such a letdown! I love the Bay Tree usually, and only live 15 minutes away. However on this occasion the afternoon tea was a disappointment, which is a great shame, as I had high hopes. To reiterate, your Staff are AMAZING, as is the venue. I would appreciate your feedback, as I am sure you take comments seriously, as they are a big indicator as to how you are treating your guests, and how they react to that treatment! Many thanks for your attention...and response in advance!

2 /5 Claire Andrews: Couldn’t fault my Sunday lunch. However the staff were busy laughing and chatting loudly between themselves to the extent it was annoying and unprofessional. Flowers on the table dead. Sticky price label visible on the flower pot. Crumbs on the seat. Gents loo needed a good clean Chefs food fabulous. But everything else lacking Beware of the “optional 12.5 % “ service charge
