The Grand Hotel

We had lunch there yesterday. We ordered the Fisherman’s basket. I was surprised they actually served it. Three pieces of burnt dried fish. No calamari rings and salad. just thrown on there. The chips and prawns were fine. For the price which was expensive would expect some effort. I notice there is another review on the same thing. The hotel itself is beautiful and staff friendly. A great location. That’s what the 2 stars are for. I would hope the rest of the menu offers better food.

The food at the restaurant was not good at all. We asked for the roast of the day and asked what the roast was to which we were told roast lamb. So all good until half a dry roast chicken and barely cooked vegetables was served. The meal was barely edible . To their credit the management acknowledged that the waitress was new and didn’t know much about the menu given it was her second day. They were generous and didn’t charge us for the roast of the day , but one us was still quite hungry at the end of a date night! Please check with management before deciding on the roast of the day, not a first world problem we know but it can make the difference between a good night and a rather ordinary one.

Lovely atmosphere whether in the bistro or restuarant area. Service is friendly and efficient. Lots of parking available around the hotel area. Food is large portions whether a meal or a burger. Bookings advisable for restuarant on Saturday nights and those public holiday weekends. Not certain if it is accessible by wheelchair, as front entrance has stairs.

Disgusting behaviour from the security. Always known them to abuse there rights. Watching them laugh when they hurt or kick innocent people out is absolutely disturbing...I'm so glad this has come to light. The owner doesn't give a care either. He stands behind his security. So many will come forward, I'm sure....
