My family have fond memories of Buckfast and the delicious treacle tart so we ventured there for a very long day trip (from Surrey) to get some. Only to be informed once there, that due to Health & Safety, they are not entitled to take their tart home :)Are you serious????

The staff needs to be sent to charm school. Don't sell speciality coffees if you can't make them. Very poor selection of baked goods. Won't bother again.

Beautiful roast here today - worth every minute of the 4+ hour round trip. Meat always beautifully cooked, great selection of vegetables. Staff ALWAYS wonderful. Love how allergens are advertised on all the signs etc so you don't need to feel like you're making a fuss by asking - or just avoid all foods that 'may' contain something because you don't want to make that fuss. Only grumble is the distance from home otherwise we would be here every week

We have nothing but praise for your staff and the food that you produced. Everything was spectacular from the start, the set up, the table lay out and the presentation of the food. The service the warmth and friendliness from all your staff. We all had a great Christmas Lunch. Vegetables were served hot and taste was fantastic, I loved that my plate was hot as well as my food. The service was top notch checking everything was ok and that we had the correct dish. I thought the food was delicious and beautifully presented. I was very impressed that they could produce food of such a high standard when there were so many guests to cater for at once. The service was also lovely; the staff were nice as well as efficient.

Booked to have the special Christmas dinner with a friend. BIt of a disapointment considering the high cost £24.95. Starter was mackerel pate , tasty but there was only a teaspoonful on the plate . Main course , turkey was quite nice but vegetables were exactly the same as being served in the main restaurant for a quarter of the price. Best bit was the Xmas pudding , but I bet that was bought in.

"That looks like dog meat (texturally)". Had the buckfast cottage pie. Tasted alright but the meat did look a bit strange. The gingerbread latte tasted like a diluted simulation, the chai "synthetic" and the best thing was the bottle of bucky we bought in the shop. And the view was ok; autumnal hues in the woods.

We popped in after a walk around the beautiful abbey. Were delighted to see three freshly baked cakes labelled as gluten free. Then noticed they all said 'may contain traces of gluten and wheat'. Spoke to a lady and asked if they are gluten free or not, and she said yes. I tried to explain if they may contain gluten then they cannot be labelled as gluten free as it's a legally protected term- they should be labelled as non gluten containing ingredients. She shrugged her shoulders and said that's the label they come with. So nothing to eat for us. Be warned if you have allergies, they haven't got a clue.

The breakfast was absolutely delicious, had a large variety to chose from. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. The chef was very friendly and made sure he Achieved all our dietary needs. The prices were cheaper than expected considering the quality and quantity of the food. Will definitely be going back.

Had a Sunday roast & it was amazing! Lots of vegetables to choose from, a choice of 4 meats & a vegetarian option. Service was perfect. A delicious meal, we will definitely return!

On a rainy day, we stopped for tea and coffee whilst visiting the abbey. Whilst the drinks were hot, the tea for one was in the smallest pot we've ever had with no extra hot water to top it up. "Large" coffee cup is smaller than a medium on the high street. This was poor value for £5.50. The cafe area also looked like a school canteen with hard chairs but was busy, probably because of the weather. Such a shame in a lovely setting.

The BEST carvery I have had in a long time! I had the roast beef and it was pink in the middle and juicy. Tasty red cabbage, carrots, parsnips, stuffing balls etc. Excellent value at £14/head too. Will be returning again soon, thank you.

Unfortunately the woman who served me doesn?t know how to make a flat white coffee which is a pity considering it cost £3.30. It was one of the worst flat whites I?ve ever had. If you?re going to serve a variety of coffees then at least you should know how to make them.

Very nice carvery, bit of a queue but well worth it !
