For the price paid on Groupon it was fine value. Although we only received beetroot wrap and non of the other sandwich items that it states on the menu or the details of the groupon. Even still, there felt enough to go between two people. Staff were very friendly and trying to be accommodating. The atmosphere was nice, we stayed for a couple of hours and didn't feel rushed. Overall I enjoyed my experience.

Unfortunately the bread was very stale, it’s clear they have either prepared this with bread that they were about to throw away. The cake selection; there was no Victoria sponge and the cream for the scones was not clotted but very runny. Also no macaroons provided just small cakes. So we got only the sandwiches that were accurate on the deal (bread was stale) and bottle of Prosecco. This seems to me a management issue. Because you are buying a deal at half price they give you low quality products to make up the price margins. Someone needs to speak to the manager at City Hotel and ask him if he would eat stale bread! Wasn’t happy with the products we didn’t get what was written on the deal in terms of food. It was like almost you haven’t paid full price therefore we’ll give you the cut back products to save money. Disgraceful.

Great vegan tea

AWFUL. Would not recommend at all. Food and staff were very poor. We were served stale scones so simply asked for these to be exchanged for fresh ones. The waitress was adamant that this was standard and did not offer any help until a long discussion. Having shared a nut allergy in advance, they were unable to cater for this. There's no point in asking for this detail if you're unable to cater for this. Really bad service. Would not recommend even on a groupon price, better off going elsewhere!

Food was nice, but only topped up our hot water once. Very slow, might be because it was very busy. and the restaurant was freezing.
