Service
Pros:
"Fantastic service last night, it was my 5 year wedding anniversary and was served by an amazing lady Nicole, fast and lovely."
"The service was excellent. All the staff were very welcoming."
"The speed of service from the lovely staff is first class."
"Everyone is friendly and talkative."
"The staff were brilliant."
"Services by the staff was quick and polite with a smile and professional."
"Lauren served me and my family and it was so nice to have a lovely server."
"Tru our server was fantastic, so helpful and even at 10 pm still smiling."
Cons:
"Service was ok, we were made aware that there are 2 kitchens that handle different menu items so timings could be a bit odd."
"Waitress obviously tired not very communicative."
"We were seated upstairs in a party of young babies with prams, the stairs are very narrow and windy which was very difficult to maneuver with a pram and there was no attempt to help from staff."
"I was unable to speak to anybody about my issue and the automated service did not amend my original booking so our new year's plans were ruined."
"Bar staff on a Friday night unfriendly and inattentive which is surprising, disappointing and service slow."
"Unfortunately, we did not get to even try the food or service. We booked originally for 2 people on New Year’s Eve back in early November."
"Great food, however, the place was way too hot inside. I don't think the air conditioning was up to the job."
"Food was OK but service was awful, do you not teach your staff to remove empty plates?"
Food Quality and Variety
Pros:
"The food was amazing the drinks even better. Atmosphere was incredible would go here again."
"For starter We shared the lamb flatbread and was well enough for us to share."
"I had the Hunloke Club Sandwich, and it was beautiful. Huge portion size."
"The food is fabulous, the portion sizes are extremely generous."
"Food - Great quality food, cooked well - had no complaints all around."
"Over all food was perfect cook and price is good and nice atmosphere as well will definitely go there again."
"The food was very tasty and the staff were brilliant."
"The food itself was some of the best I'd had loads to choose from with something for everyone lots of things I'd not had before."
Cons:
"Only removed a star as it is not as good as it once was, they have cut back the portions."
"The meat was a little bit dry given the size of it and the onions tasted perfumed."
"The chilli chips were slightly disappointing as they were not crispy or flavorful."
"The curry was extremely poor and was sweet resembling ice cream, beef stroganoff full of fat."
"Whilst the staff and the restaurants aesthetics are friendly and inviting, the evening was heavily let down by the bland lukewarm meal."
"The tempura options were soggy and putting sriracha on dishes really does not count as delivering the complex flavors of Japanese cuisine."
"I'd cod baked in a skillet. Reasonable price and a nice non-smelly environment. Plent of car parking on 3 levels."
"Had the most gorgeous meal this evening. Big Kentucky Stick, so tasty and perfectly cooked and presented."
Ambiance and Atmosphere
Pros:
"Atmosphere - one of the unique selling points is the atmosphere. It's quirky, with unusual touches, an industrial vibe in places - yet felt warm and cosy."
"Celebrate my daughter and son Birthday meal for very first in this restaurant everything is Brilliant."
"Great atmosphere in an old Grade II listed building."
"The pub it's self is very well presented in a quirky wooden style with loads of room a real wood burner for winter."
"We booked upstairs in the cherry blossom room, it was beautiful."
"THE BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! I had such a wonderful time at The Hunlocke Arms when celebrated my birthday with my friends. Brilliant atmosphere, absolutely beautiful food."
"It's a nice cosy place good service what ruined the evening for us is when I had to nip to the car and my partner was still eating and I hadn't finished eating a staff member told all the other staff to watch my partner."
"We went for a meal here just after lockdown was eased, Service was excellent and food was perfect and will definitely be returning."
Cons:
"Unfortunately had problems from the start with these, heard lots of good things, so tried to ring up and boom but couldn't find a number, tried to book online but also was tricky."
"It was extremely hot inside with no open windows."
"My food 'open beef sandwich with Paprika and gorgonzola had to be sent back to the kitchen as there were peppercorns in not on the menu.. it looked like a dogs dinner."
"The place itself looks inviting, but sadly the service is rubbish, when you order food it should come out together, but having to wait another 10mins for part of your order doesn't work for me, so I won't be returning."
"The cocktail options are just sugary concoctions most children would make. When asked to make a classic margarita, they were not able to."
"An undeserving 4.7*. Lots of word of mouth about this restaurant with honestly a really disappointing take on Japanese cuisine."
"A new one for me, was fantastic. Food was amazing. Great atmosphere and aesthetic upstairs in the restaurant."
"We visited with our child with a severe tree nut and peanut allergy. We were made to feel at ease with this immediately when we learnt they operate a nut-free site due to their owner having a nut allergy too."
