The Woodworkers

Server who seated and initially took our drink and food orders was unfriendly. It took a while for her to come around and take our order. When the food came out, we had a different server and the food was not hot. The initial server disappeared and I had to go to the bar to order another drink as no one ever came back. When it came time to pay, the initial server was available. With making a reservation and sitting at a table, I would expect to have a server for the evening who was actually pleasant. This was the worst experience I’ve ever had in a restaurant, would never return and would not recommend.

We try to get together every 6 months or so with ex work mates and really enjoy the pool hall at Laverys. Atmosphere and the food is great. Staff are always friendly and know how to pour a guinness.
Already looking at dates that suit everyone for another get-together.

🏚️setting was lovely. We arrived slightly early. We waited by the waitress station and to be honest we're ignored for a few minutes, so I asked if we could be seated. The service was exactly as I would expect from this point onwards.

🍷Drinks ordered, I had a white wine and my hubby had an ale.

🍗🍨Food, we had salt and pepper squid, honey chilli chicken and loaded katsu fries. The squid and honey chilli Chicken we're out favourites. Very tasty, great size portions.

Overall we would return, the setting was quirky and had a nice vibe.
The service to bring drinks and food was quick and of course the portion size Vs price was value for money.

Great beers and food but the bar girl is a joke, no sales skills and no desire to welcome customers. She served a wrong beer to my mate, and then straggled to put them on our table… no one really came up to us to even ask if we wanted to order anything else. Staff training is much needed in this place.

Food all very good. Service great and nice atmosphere. Here for food pre comedy club

We went to the comedy show, pre booked the dinner, I arrived early and didn’t have to wait for my reserved table, it was a quiet Wednesday evening, I enjoyed the chicken and chips, American dinner style in a plastic tray, yummy sauce. We went up to the comedy show as the doors were closing and missed out on our seats but that just meant we had easy access to the bar 👍 excellent Guinness . Good job guys.

Really enjoyed our visit here. The staff were absolutely wonderful, super friendly and helpful.
Plenty to choose for food AND offered gluten free which is great as my partner is coeliac.
It was super busy when we went but still managed to get a table but would probably recommend booking in advance!
