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.

I genuinely can’t believe the visit today. Thought as it’s a rainy day would be nice to head out for lunch. We arrived and no customers were in the restaurant and quickly the 2 staff made it clear we were not welcome, saying from a...chair I could do you some food but then long wait, no offer of a menu and comments like we should be closed and later, once these people leave I’ll ring X and we’ll close. 1) if you are open be polite to your customers or ring your boss and close but don’t relay your unhappiness to people who are spending hard earned money in the restaurant. Then the food was not good (probably should have thought this may happen).dry over done club sandwiches that neither my wife or I could eat. Awful experience regarding service and food standard. Its the worst lunch I’ve had and should be refunded and apologised to for being made to feel uncomfortable and an inconvenience.More

Had not been to the golf club for Sunday lunch since before Covid but thought we'd give it a try as I was really impressed with 'the spread' at a recent function. We were not disappointed, it was the best Sunday lunch in a long...time, back to how it used to be a few years ago. Even though there was a minor electrical problem on our arrival it was quickly sorted. The meal was freshly cooked and hot with a great selection of vegetables. The meat choice was turkey, beef or pork, including crispy crackling, which were done to perfection. The service was excellent as was the value for money. We booked again before we left, this time with more of the family. Highly recommend that you give it a try.More

Have just been for Sunday lunch after hearing the food had improved! Disappointed! Beef wasn’t great, turkey was OK but not great, roast potatoes not as good as home made, and the only accompaniments were cranberry sauce or horseradish- no stuffing, bread sauce etc. The...Yorkshire puddings were huge but not that great. The veg- french beans-OK, carrots- OK , Cauliflower would have been better in cheese sauce. The desserts, of which there were 3 to choose from, were OK but the custard with the sticky toffee pudding was only luke warm. All in all, will not be returning again.More

Wanted to spend some time with Mum so booked afternoon tea here. What a disappointment! The sandwiches were very dry, I would even say stale. The cakes were not very appetising either. We mentioned it to the waitress who apologised and said they were freshly...made that morning, - our tea was at 14.30. There was no offer of replacement. We were very disappointed for £11.50 each. The room was lovely overlooking the golf course but we would not return,More

We went here on Saturday May 26th for our friend's daughters wedding. What a great place for a wedding! The ceremony was lovely, bride and groom looked great and there were lots of smiling faces. After the wedding, we had a three course lunch, with...leek and potato soup, prawn cocktail or chicken liver pate for starters. The main course choice was British Roast Beef, Poached or Roasted breast of Chicken, Seared Seabass fillet, each came with all the trimmings. For dessert, the choice was White Chocolate Cheesecake, Forest Berry Eton Mess or Spiced Sticky Toffee Pudding, again each had their trimmings. After the meal, there was tea or coffee. It was a lovely meal, well presented and hot and the waiting staff were very friendly and polite. We were told that they serve meals here all week and each meal is great and not too expensive. There was a lovely view from the restaurant looking over the greens and to the distant hills. They will help with any special dietary requirements. Plenty of free car parking and everywhere was very clean. A great day was had by all. Well worth a visit whether for a meal or to relax for a drink, inside or out. It certainly was a great wedding venue.More

We have had some superb Sunday lunches at Parklands, but our last two visits have shown a decline in both service and quality of food, I suspect bought about by the popularity of the restaurant. Don't get me wrong its still good and represents great...value (which is partly why its become so popular), but I suspect that the roast potatoes are reheated and vegetable portions seem identical for couples or groups of four (we asked for more and they came without question, but hey!) As the extended lunch session (from 12.00-16.00) continues, the beef becomes overcooked (to keep it warm) so sadly not a as good as it used to be. Sunday lunch is a family affair and Parklands is a large, well spaced restaurant with glorious views of the golf club. Such a shame that so many families cant control there precious ones who run around the tables and the stage unchallenged. It is a many reviews have identified a lovely restaurant where service and quality in the past has been exceptional, its popularity is now beginning to damage that reputation.More

So many pluses for Parklands : a lovely setting, perfect ambiance, attentive staff, lashings of fresh vegetables, one or two good puddings, quickly-cleared tables....but why did the fish stay in the Ocean? I've never asked for a Seafood Mixed Grill before - so I built...myself up for 7 or 8 different fishes, attractively set out : the equivalent of a Meaty Mixed Grill. One or two fish tail-ends did certainly not match my expectations. What was the Chef thinking of ? And why has he not sent me a photograph of what a Seafood Mixed Grill should look like, so that I can tell him or her whether that's what came? I shall still return for the Pork my friend had.More
