Lodging in Birstall, West Yorkshire

“Can’t rate food as they don’t serve food. Lovely friendly pub, pool table and card games etc to enjoy. Frequent visitor and it’s always a great place for a drink.”

“This was the first occasion I had been to a Bensons' shop. I was greeted warmly by Mohammed who showed an enthusiasm to help and I felt very at ease dealing with him.I was looking only for mattresses for two spare beds (after a house fire had led to most of my chattels being deemed unrestorable). Mohammed understood the situation and, while ensuring that I understood the different options and styles available, did not attempt to put pressure on me to purchase something which would have been more expensive, but would not have 'fitted the bill'.I believe this was Mohammed's first sale. He was courteous, polite and helpful and spoke with myself and my partner with clarity and respect. Unfortunately, the more experienced member of staff, whose help was required to deal with the paperwork on the purchase, spoke to Mohammed in front of my partner and me in a way which was not very helpful. It would hardly be the 'new boy's' fault if he was not set up on your computer system, but the other member of staff appeared to think it was an arduous and unnecessary chore to have to do this to process the purchase of two mattresses.Overall, I was very pleased with the way that Mohammed showed us the different mattresses, discussed what we wanted (and put our requirements first) and explained the options for delivery.Mohammed was cheerful throughout. He's a chap who will do well and who represents Bensons extremely well!”

“Lovely food ? and lovely service. The Steaks were cooked just to our liking and plenty of choice of steaks and sauces.Lovely cocktails too.?Will definitely be back.?”

“Ikea's are the same where ever you go! I have even been to one in Sweden and I ate the same meatballs and lignonbury jam!
Still great for buying flatpack furniture!!”
