Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Service wasn’t great, the salad was far too sweet and the room is overcrowded I’ve been to drewtons before and it’s clear they need to improve things. I would like to say that the women working there who are in their teens/20s were very friendly...and polite, however the service from the older women was bordering on hostile and rude. Everything seemed like too much trouble and didn’t make the experience enjoyable. I think there are too many tables in both parts of the restaurant. The tables are close together which makes it hard to have a conversation and hard for staff to get through. I ordered the feta and beetroot salad bowl and whilst it sounded great on the menu, it was far too sweet with beetroot meringues and beetroot jus. There were only 3 lettuce leaves to balance out the overly sweet flavours. My mum had a table booked for today and had her reservation cancelled purely due to incompetence so that motivated me to write this review. Clearly things need to be addressed. The menu is good so there is a lot of potential but dishes need to be executed better, and service needs vastly improving…More

Nice welcome at front door & shown to table by a gentleman. Young lady called Katie was our server. She was very pleasant and understated - which is so much nicer than ‘in your face’. She was polite and checked in with us, noted everything...correctly and we got exactly what we wanted when we needed it. No having to chase things and ask twice. We had loveky food, nice friendly service and weren’t rushed away from the table. All was very nice thank you.More

Miserable unhelpful staff apart from the supervisor. We had to ask for everything , never offered. Eg refillable drinks, plates removed. No explanation given of what was on the afternoon tea trays. No one came to ask if everything was ok, etc etc. At the...end we explained our issues to the supervisor who was very understanding and offered us free takeaway drinks. However my birthday had already been spoilt. Wont be hurrying back anytime soon! Drewtons pull your socks up! The table next to us were also discussing how unhappy they were with the service so it wasn’t just us being really fussy!!More

Arrived after a trip to Manchester airport and hungry looking to have breakfast. Left outside the door waiting to be seated in cold weather. Lots of empty tables inside but because they clearly think they are something they are not left waiting for 5 minutes...while staff ignored me. In the end walked off to get good service at macdonaldsMore

Arrived on Sunday 30th July around 1.30 to have coffee and a scone. Waited a short time for an indoor table (no one sat outside at that time) and when a table had cleared we were seated. We then continued to wait at least 15...minutes before someone came to take an order. The lady was extremely sorry and apologised profusely for our long wait. We gave her our order…two coffees and two scones and waited. And waited and waited and waited….eventually, after 25 mins the same waitress came by and we asked if our order was almost ready…but she was full of excuses of being busy etc etc. we had had enough by this point…far too long to wait for just two coffees and two scones. Being busy is not an excuse to keep people waiting that long when they are not even having a cooked meal (or uncooked). Insult was added to injury as we walked out to see the outside was almost full at that time…clearly everyone had come after us and the majority of them were tucking into food and drinks! Poor on all accounts!!More

Great night out here at The Manor Rooms for a summer bbq. Apart from the fact it rained and the bbq was cooked inside and served there too, it was a great night. Good selection of food....burgers, sausages, chicken wings, kebabs, dips,sauces and lots of...salads. We are already planning our Christmas party there! Added to this a great drinks package available, and we danced the night away! Great service and friendly staff added to the enjoyment of all!More
