Reviews of Balmoral Beefeater
P. R.
Wonderful service and friendly staff today fir Sunday lunch. My daughter had a brilliant chicken burger and my wife and I had a lovely roast turkey dinner both from the festive menu. With the roasts we got a chance to choose our own veg from the carvery hatch. Brussels a bit under cooked for my liking but roasties and parsnips were to die for!
Have the trifle for desert which was very nice. A lot of lovely dishes to choose from so will have to go back!
V. K.
Absolutely fantastic, great service, lovely food , good size portions . Very clean . First class 👍
R. Y.
Really disappointing, phoned and booked a table for me and my father. Arrived to be told it was a reduced menu, short on chefs.
Starters we had cheesy garlic bread, couldn't even taste garlic, so basically got served soggy cheesy bread.
Then we had Ribeye Steak. Asked for my steak rare it was served blue. Which I don't mind. The chips were undercooked. And the peas were like bullets.
A really disappointing meal we travelled 20 miles for. As last time we came everything was spot on perfect.
L. C.
Decided to try this place for lunch on the spur of the moment,+ were very pleased we did .Good value £9.95 2 course lunch menu, also a lot of choice on the wine menu.We only had a very short wait for our food, which was very good considering a very large party of people had arrived just before us. We had 2 delightful + efficient waitresses, ,Sian + Chantal. We'll be back soon !
A.
Worth your time and 💰. Very relaxing place and service top notch. Family planned for Peppa pig, booked premier Inn for stay. It was very convenient to book restaurant part of premier Inn for breakfast and dinner. We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast as well as dinner(2 nights) roast n vegan.
A. H.
The breakfast buffet is unbelievably good,on a separate occasion we were disappointed that when we asked for a macaroni and cheese without the butternut squash and we're told 'we can't it just comes mixed and we bung it in the microwave'......
A. S.
Really enjoyed our meal here. Staff were friendly and really attentive to drinks refills. No long wait for food, was all fresh and got when it arrived.
B. S.
Reduced menu but that wasn't a problem at all. Very friendly and helpful staff.
Food was cooked just as we wanted and service was very relaxed but efficient. Definitely recommend.
p. d.
We had the meal deal as we were staying at the Premier Inn for one night, we were greeted with a smiling face from a member of the staff, the restaurant could do with some TLC, food was good, but unfortunately there were items on the menu they had run out of for the evening meal and breakfast.
The 4 stars I have given are for the staff who were friendly and polite.
R. S.
Megan was fantastic, the service was exceptional.
We were greeted promptly with a warm welcome. COVID-19 procedures in full effect, new screens everywhere, very impressive.
Place was clean and presentable.
Manager James greeted us upon arrival and explained the new procedures and processes.
The food was hot and tasty. Drinks were prompt. The family and I fully enjoyed ourselves. Highly recommended.
T. “. C.
Good food and attentive staff. Would go back again. Prices are a little high though.
r. l.
A great experience... Good quality food at a good price in a clean and friendly environment.. not much more you could ask for
L. G.
Lovely restaurant, great choice of food. Friendly and helpful staff.

Stayed overnight for work. Had one of the best steaks(T-Bone) that I've eaten in a long while.
Friendly efficient staff made sure we were looked after without being over attentive
D. M.
Great restaurant with good food, very friendly staff
S. L.
We arrived 15 minutes before the breakfast closed. We were cheerily grested by Nicola F and her team. They informed us of the short time frame which was fine as we only wanted a quick drink. They were very friendly and helpful throughout out time there.
A. T.
Generally not too busy but best to pre-book if it's a popular time (12-1). Great food for the reasonable prices they're at on the lunch menu. Good selection of drinks at the bar. Quick service, often go down there for lunch at work so to get food and drinks sorted in an hour is impressive. Very friendly staff.
J. W.
Very friendly and accommodating staff. The pub/ restaurant has pleasant decor with comfortable seating.
Good selection for the menu and service is pretty quick. Everything I've tried has been tasty but sometimes better than others
Overall nice place to eat, not to expensive, but can be busy with young families at times.
M. M.
Just had a meal at your restaurant,I don't often do reviews but I've got to say what a wonderful meal myself and my family had at your restaurant. The quality was first class,could not moan about the food at all, every thing was cooked to perfection. Also what lovely staff you have especially Andrea who went out of her way to make us feel welcome. After a long journey from Ipswich, we were really surprised to find somewhere that made us feel so welcome.Booking a meal deal when we booked on line at the Premiere Inn was a god sent, once again thank you very much
K. G.
Actually very surprised by the level of customer service and food quality. A little on the expensive side but worth the visit. Would definitely recommend this for steakhouse customers.
P. C.
We ordered 2 meals and they tasted good except one of the stakes was medium rare but came out well done other food was ok nothing note worthy
K. L.
Despite being short staffed and operating a limited menu. Service was good, food was lovely and the evening was very enjoyable.
C. W.
Amazing service and good food. Highly recommended
R. H.
Very friendly staff, food well cooked and nicely served. Meals not huge but good value for money.
B. S.
Very good steak pie with genuine suet pastry. I’m definitely a pie man and this was the best I’ve had for a very long time. I’m busy planning How I can get another portion back in York :)
W. L.
Thank you for saving my mother's day last minute booking as my family forgot to sort it out lovely meal and great service x
B. T.
Very busy when we went but staff service excellent. Normally eat at a beefeater when we stay at premier Inn. Both for evening meal and breakfast the food at this one is cooked to a high standard and considerably better than the beefeater we'd eaten at earlier in the wk.
Surprised to hear people grumbling over unavailability of menu items, when the information sheet clearly states there are supply issues
C. H.
Refillable soft drinks, great deals and prices, tasty food with big portions. It may not be the most posh, expensive restaurant but the service is friendly and the food is very good.
One tip is to book, even if the restaurant has empty tables I suspect they keep some for premier Inn clients so it's best to book even if it's at the last minute.
S. D.
Limited menu due to problems with deliveries but we still enjoyed a lovely meal served by attentive staff. Our waiter explained what was available on the night we visited and pointed out some alternatives to choose from that were not listed on the main menu. An enjoyable meal in a relaxing atmosphere. Ample off road parking outside the restaurant.
C. W.
No tables available so had to eat at bar
The same 15 tables that wer empty when I arrived stayed completely empty and still empty when i left. Food is great
E. L.
Love this beefeater. Food and staff are always great.
T. Q.
Amazing food and with the voucher a good price too
R. J.
Great place nice big round table plenty of room for the six of us, food was excellent, had the mushrooms followed by a mixed grill which was more than plenty. Pudding was the black forest sundae to finish off the meal perfectly.
P. K.
Excellent service, food and we felt safe due to the regime in place. A very enjoyable evening with friends. We will be back.
A. S.
The Balmoral is our local Beefeater so we eat there quite a lot. Took Nanna there today for lunch. As usual we were greeted with a smile by Sam and shown to our table.
We ordered from the lunchtime menu and thoroughly enjoyed the food. We had excellent service from Nicolas and Sam.
E. M.
Very friendly staff great steaks and lovely ambiance
T. P.
Big surprise. Much better than I thought it would be.
Great curry
Good prices 👍
L. M.
Great service from Ebony at the bar to our waitress.
Food was lovely. Took my Dad for Father's Day, but there were no long waits for food. Parents both had starters which meant they could hardly finish their main meals, so one course only recommended for a smaller appetite!
K. F.
Food was lovely 👌
Service was okay. Saying that : it was busy, like busy busy. They didn't have enough people. Heard staff arguing with each other next to us so it wasn't a pleasant experience. When our drinks arrived one of the glasses were covered in someone's lipstick.
It was not a 100% staff's fault its the management that doesn't have enough people on the shift 🤷♀️
Overall, we loved the food and the waitress was really nice and looked after us as much as she could, thank you!
B. 5.
Very good service and amazing food! Quick to order and friendly staff
F. P.
Great value breakfast. Especially as 2 kids eat for free for every paying adult. Have been many times. Will go many more!
R. W.
Both the food and staff were brilliant. The kids thoroughly enjoyed their meals and the cost of the kids meal deals is fantastic. The scallops on the surf and turf were overcooked but the rest of the meal was amazing!
L. W.
Friendly staff and a great atmosphere. The meals took a while to arrive but were tasty.
M.
Brilliant service, friendly bubby staff nothing to much trouble
P. B.
Good food, good service. Pleasant experience.
T. A.
A bit too 'pub-like' for me. Very expensive for what it was. £40 for these two meals, one dessert and coffee and 2 lime and sodas.
p. f. 1.
Had some lovely meals in there, staff are friendly and attentive and when we told them me and girlfriend had got engaged they very kindly gave us a box of chocs and a card which was lovely
A. H.
Came here for dinner with two small children, food was excellent, we had a steak and mixed grill both were cooked to perfection. Service was quick and attentive. Staff were excellent with the children and couldn’t have been more accommodating. Only issue we had was with the drinks, on two occasions we ordered drinks that we soon found out were not available and were then charged on the bill, however this was corrected quickly with no problem at all. Complying with all covid regulations, masks, track & trace etc. Would definitely return!
D. W.
First time eating here and certainly not the last really nice all you can eat you won't leave feeling hungry very friendly staff felt really welcomed can wait to go back
S. D.
On arrival, we could see very good Covid-19 measures were in place with lots of hand sanitiser, tables spaced out/screens between each one. We were welcomed straight away and seated. Apparently the place opened just before the first lockdown, hence, it still looked fresh and new. Our table service was brilliant and Verity was a delight, very friendly, informative and had such a nice manner about her. My Tuna steak was perfectly cooked and my partner really enjoyed his burger. This was our first time eating at a Beefeater for years and they have certainly upped their game. We now plan to visit our local Beefeater this weekend and hope it's just as good.
N. B.
Great atmosphere. Service exceptional. Evening meal Wes excellently cooked and great value. Buffet breakfast is out of this world. all items are cooked perfectly and there is so much to choose from. Decor is nice and place is immaculate clean. Lots of parking couldn’t find fault in anything whatsoever
J. T.
Lovely place, staff are so friendly and the food is sooo good! Highly recommended.
t. C.
Food okay, not as good as it used to be, can't complain too much as I had a voucher for my meal. Also seem to run out of the cheaper white wines so had to pay over £2 more for another one.
S. S.
Typical pub grub which was alright, wouldn't rave about it. What brought down the rating more was the service which was great in some areas and not so in others... our waitress Kimberley was the sweetest person and she was very attentive. The other waitresses on the other hand were not... when delivering drinks they didn't say what they were and just dumped them at the end of the table and stomped off so we didn't know who's was who. Funnily enough another waitress did the same when putting down our food and just put plates in front of faces without saying what was what so we could reply with whos meal were for who. This is not an experience I have had at other restaurants so would advise retraining would be beneficial. Another funny thing was one of us has food allergies and can't eat eggs so requested a swap for a mushroom instead, it came out with the egg, no tomato and no extra mushroom... another person didn't get their onion rings with their meal either. When it comes to food allergies it's not something that should be over looked and again I request that management investigate this to ensure the problems raised are rectified. Other than that it was fine.
j.
If you like meat all well but they can't cook steak wanted medium it was rare they did offer to replace the steak I ended up leaving my meal as meat lodged in my throat thats when I noticed raw meat there's a pub next door who serves meals a 100 times better but I will say breakfast is much better unfortunately need decorating and chairs upholstered rips and stains on chairs
S. P.
Good honest food at a affordable price
P. C.
Staff at the pub where great. Limited menu as short staff.
M. M.
Great customer service and food
is great. Our regular restaurant now for any meal. Breakfast is outstanding, with a buffet to suit everyone. Lunch deals are great value for money. Dinners are definitely worth the money.
T. D.
About what you would expect from a Beefeater, though
I had Fish & Chips. Which I enjoyed.🍟🍺🐟
A. R.
Very nice. Lovely food, lovely staff. Didn't have some desserts due to delivery issues.
K. W.
Very enjoyable. Nicely cooked. And plenty of other breakfast foods if you didn't want a fry up.
S. S.
Food was lovely. There was a long wait but they were busy and seemed under staffed. The servers that were there were fantastic, friendly and polite.
d. d.
Busy long wait for food staff rushed off feet very friendly
S. W.
Great value and service. The breakfasts were excellent,set you up for a day's travel.
J. S.
Our Local eatery. We visited for lunch today. Was v busy but a warm greeting by Sam. Seated and served quickly and Nicola our waitress was efficient, friendly and smiley as always. Nothing was too much trouble for the ladies working. We all enjoyed our lunch.
M. B.
Enjoyed breakfast in booth with family. No buffet, so all cooked to order with speedy service. Food pretty good. Able to refill hot drinks and do toast. One way system worked well. Staff very friendly.
L. L.
Great food, great customer service.
E. R.
Good food 😋 friendly helpful relaxing place 😊 good service.
P. M.
I've been on the meal deal all week. This gives you breakfast and a 2 course evening meal.
The place gets busy quite early so booking a table is recommended. I got caught out when they stopped serving food in the bar for 2hrs.
Every meal has been good. Plenty of meat dishes with the added bonus of as many chips as you like. Not that I needed any more than delivered.
Good quality pub grub. Service is friendly and very helpful. Happy to recommend if you can't choose.
Overall a good place to eat & drink but remember it gets busy early.
M. P.
Had a very limited menu when we had our meal.
10 in our group and very slow service, it wasnt busy at all only about 10 tables with people on.
R. J.
Was fine for a Beefeater.
Staff were polite and pleasant but a little overworked which meant catching an eye for service was a bit of a problem and ordering and drinks were a bit slow.
But the food arrived and was good, steaks were good but glad i ordered rare as was bit more medium rare while my friends was much more to medium, but it all tasted good so not really a problem.
The bill was not too bad so all in all OK, surprised how quite the place was by the time we left at 9pm
A. W.
Booking is ESSENTIAL here, even of you walk in and it looks like there's loads of tables they will say there is a wait!
That said when you do get a table the food is lovely. The staff are generally polite but can be slow with the bill.
Costa Coffee from a machine is served here along with a wide selection of bar drinks.
Compared to other family chain restaurants it seems a little pricey.
Overall a nice restaurant but not fabulous.
A. G.
Generous portions of good food enjoyed by all the family.
J. G.
Although quite busy on a Friday night and we had a bit of a wait for our meal the food was very nice. But because we waited so long we lost our appetite for a desert and we left. Don't know if this is usual for this place not having been here before, but it seemed very popular. We had breakfast here the next morning which was a buffet and also very nice and not as hectic. This place runs as the place to eat for the Premier Inn next door. The staff were attentive and friendly. Would eat here again.
D. w.
1st class service all staff were very friendly
K. M.
Excellent meal after being away of so long and Sian S looked afte us so well. Very attentive and prfessional. Great steak on the lunchtime menu served exaxly as I liked it
a. h.
Shown to our table, and order taken, but just a bit put off by the time of having to wait for food to be served. An hour's wait for our main course. Food good, no problem with that, but then I suppose it was a Friday evening, so, it was busy. Would recommend this place for its quality of food. Bit over the top though on the drinks prices.
H. W.
Great selection of food and drink. Hot and continental food available. Given 4 stars rather than 5 as we had pre booked the table and informed beefeater we had 3 children with us but were placed down stairs from the food which made it a bit awkward when getting drink refills as couldn't let the children get their own juices and couldn't leave them alone at the table.
D. W.
Very good service the staff were pleasant and chatty, the food was very good especially the lunch time fish and chips 👍
k. h.
The staff was very nice and polite. Food starter was good main course was below average, presentation of food was poor, chips dry and looked like they had been stood around for a while. I never send anything back because i have worked in a kitchen before.
Did not eat breakfast.
Overall apart from the staff i would not eat here again.
M.
The food was good and simple. It was a busy night and we were a large group so service speed was not amazing but we were in and out in 2.5hrs. The staff were great, very helpful and lovely with the kids. Overall a good night out.
C. G.
Absolutely loved it. .. staff are friendly and amazing food ... what more could you ask for.
M. B.
The staff were top notch and very helpful the only thing I was disappointed with was how much was not available on the menu but the food which was available was very good .
m. m.
The main menu has plenty of choice, but the lunch time menu is very good and great prices. . Sadly they've taken off the delicious minute steak. We go once a week for lunch and its always good, wwith everending chips too....
Sadly the Sunday roast, which was always excellent, has gone down hill, perhaps due to a new supplier. We have been going for years and so notice the huge difference in flavour and quality. We have mentioned this to the manager and hope there will be a huge improvement so we can go back again.
P. E.
The food was Devine the service excellent the waiter David was tentative to all of are needs .I recommend it
h.
If you are staying at the hotel make sure to book as it seemed very busy when we went. The breakfast wasn't as big as some other premier inns that I've stayed at. The dinner was quite nice, there were loads of options for vegetarians and vegans.
C. G.
Lovely help your self brekkie.. Eat as much as you want. 😁
Big choice of full English breakfast items plus cereals and yogurts and croissants.
I. G.
Very nice meal exceptionally helpful attentive staff. Thanks for looking after us so well.
S. B.
I've never had a bad experience in any Beefeater. The food is always superb. Yesterday we were a group of 15. We all got our courses within 2 minutes of each other. The service was top notch. Well done to all the staff.
M. R.
Fantastic food. Had the mixed grill and it was BIG.
A. M.
Nice atmosphere, and great food as always. Never had a bad meal here. Staff are very attentive, and friendly. Can get busy, but that adds to the place..
a. c.
Great service from the staff especially from the guy at the front of the pub , unfortunately I've forgot his name but he was superb , went out of his way to help me & my wife with our little boy who suddenly didn't feel so good & was tired . If the bosses are reading this that guy needs mega praise .
We went 22/9/2019 table booked for 16:00
A. W.
Awesome place with great service and great atmosphere. Had a voucher which made the meal very good value for money. Bottomless chips and veg. Left stuffed and very happy. Cant wait to go again.
K. R.
Good food, slow service and because of the Christmas Menu the prices had been increased.
Our party was OAPs so we all mentioned the high cost. Also, having 40% off Main Menu voucher didn't include the Christmas Menu plus other exceptions.
Because of the high cost of the normal menu, no savings were to be had. Everyone wants value-for-money, but you won't find this at a Beefeater Pub - especially at Christmas time.
s. c.
Staff very pleasant and helpful, portions got smaller, price gone up to pay for refit at a guess. Booth seating wierd, table seems high and not much room to move. Wasn't overly warm kept jacket on throughout. Food was good but used to get a lot more for your money. Horns from now on.
J. H.
Lovely food with great choices. It does get manic though with long waits if you've not booked. Staff are delightful, they work hard and always with good humour.
G. E.
Excellent ! The staff were friendly and there seemed a good commeradeship between each other. All three dishes we had were very enjoyable and my beef and cheese pie was delicious. Worth a visit.
W.
Decent pub and selection of meals
M. B.
Loved the breakfast buffet.
j. r.
Staff really helpful and a pleasure to see a smiling face
E.
We often go for Breakfast at the weekend. You dont need to be staying at the Premier Inn but best to go before 9am as it can be busy especially if there is a cruise ship departing that day. Children eat for free. You can go for continental or full breakfast. It's self service and you can go back as many times as you want so good value.
At other times of day the food can be a bit hit and miss.
A. D.
We had steaks very tasty and had unlimited fries and vegetables with it. All staff very friendly and polite and made you welcome. The cinnamon and apple waffles with ice cream were excellent. Go there again
R. L.
Great value for money breakfast. Staff really understanding with ceoliacs in our group. Will make fresh food for guests with specific allergies. Great range of food and 2 kids eat free for every paying adult! Bargin.
N. M.
Nice little pub restaurant. Went down on a Sunday evening when it was quite busy and the waiter managed to find us a table without a huge wait. We even added on 2 late members of the party with no issues despite it being very busy. Took a little while to have our orders taken but food was prompt and nice and the atmosphere was very chilled so easy to sit and chat and not worry how long it was taking
B. R.
Lovely environment, and staff. Food is always of great value and a cheap dinner out for all the family. Toilets are low standard compared to the remainder of the restaurant.
M. S.
Fantastic food. Service outstanding. Highly recommended
P. C.
Excellent friendly service, food was well cooked
B. S.
Absolutely amazing meal and great value for what you get! Party of 3 seriously enjoyed our meal and drinks and despite the mishap with the steak, it was quickly rectified and all the staff especially Loren could not have done anymore for us, you were lovely - the whole team were! Thank you 🎉
W. M.
Had an 18th Birthday celebration recently & this is not the first time we have had a function here. Staff are ALWAYS very friendly & professional, all food piping hot. Manager very attentive to make sure all went very smoothly. Very happy & would definitely recommend.
M. W.
Stopped for a quick burger after work food was good . The one staff member that was present was busy. We had to weight we found out there were three managers in the building mmmmmmm may be they should take turns in popping down to the bar now and again
D. S.
The waitress at breakfast this morning was exceptional. Working on her own with a very busy service. Deserves a big thank you!
J. N.
Such a nice atmosphere is this place, the food is great as well as the staff being nice and friendly. There menu has a variety of options for you to choose from for vegans and vegetarians, but if you can tell by the name of this restaurant, there is alot of meaty products. One of My favourite restaurants and definitely recommend it
R. T.
Very nice staff but overpriced for what it is. You could go to a Marco Pierre White's restaurant for the price down the road. I found it on par with a hungry horse and they are much better value for money. They do have a pool table though!
B. Y.
It was ok.Polite and pleasant staff.Not quite as good as some other places and a little on the expensive side.But ..yeah.l wouldn't discourage folk from going there.
M. E.
We popped in after a day out, with a 4yr old and a 6wk old. Food was lovely, service was brilliant, staff very attentive and friendly. Woll definitely be back. Thankyou all for a lovely 1st dinner out with out baby
C. D.
We have just visited the Balmoral for a birthday lunch. The quality of the food was excellent, the customer service from all the staff was outstanding, I would highly recommend the business to other friends and family.
Many thanks to all on duty.

Great menu, scallops were amazing as was the seafood starter in fact I can,t wait to back again to try something else. Staff are also very nice but book in advance as very busy restaraunt.
J. R.
Went for breakfast after doing parkrun on the Severn bridge. Only Took 10 mins to get there.
Parking and finding it is very easy. You have to pay £2 for parking thought which is unusual as we haven't to at any other beefeater around that I know of. You do get the £2 off the meal but I wasn't aware until after we left about this and they don't tell you inside.
However food was the best Beefeater we have been to. If you want something done different ect they will do it for you no problems. Everything was out on display and nothing was cold. Even the pastry's were warm.
G. C.
Very nice place food & drink good value felt very comfortable with the social distancing rulings ..would definitely eat there again
T. M.
A very nice meal served in clean and pleasant surroundings. We were welcomed by Donna who looked after us very well , and made sure our every need was taken care of. Thanks guys
D. G.
We were greeted with smiles at 17:15 and told it would be a 15min wait so 8mins later we were Sat at our table . Ordered drinks and then the main meals we had a 40% if voucher so meals from the main menu, disappointed the lamb was unavailable! baaaadddd, but second option Gammon the go to dinner, the wife ordered paprika chicken and the daughter a steak and chips from the kids menu, now we await the arrival of the dinner it took just over 30 mins to be served as it wasn't too busy this was a little surprising thought it would be a little quicker dinner was OK and tasty 4 stars as they had no alternative to the missing lamb!
E. A.
The food is lovely and really good value for money. The customer service is excellent and the staff are so friendly, would definitely reccomend here!

Vegan Burger is lovely! My mum, brother and I all enjoyed it. It would be cool to see the pulled "pork" (soya) used in it in other tasty plant based dishes too.
For dessert, the waitress very kindly offered to look at the allergy list and put something together, and she bought out fresh grapes, apple, banana (they'd run out of strawberries) and heated up the chocolate sauce, which is vegan friendly and so delicious!
Very accommodating, thank you! Xx

Stayed in the Premier Inn next door and booked a table as advised. I've not been to a beefeater in years and that was a disappointing visit - not this time! Great service, value for money food and reasonably priced drinks.
A. M.
Good all round menu and selection of sweets shame there is no choice for Diabetics to have a second course. Helpful and friendly staff always busy best to book for Friday's and weekends.
P. G.
Staff very nice and the food is pretty good too. Only complaints are that it's a bit pricey these days and you can wait a little while for your food sometimes.
W. G.
Our go-to place for a family breakfast. Lots to help yourself from with something for everyone. Clean and tidy before we arrive with helpful and polite staff make a very enjoyable place to meet in the morning.
C. W.
Went for a meal with the family meal was excellent value for money included unlimited chips and unlimited soft drinks for 4 of us the total was £45 before 6.30 will be returning waiting times weren't bad either very good service
t. m.
Very attentive staff, decent food. Nothing fancy.
J. J.
Had breakfast here, great value and cooked well.
G. S.
Went there mid afternoon on a Friday, staff really friendly and didn't have to wait long to be served and have my order taken. Went for the mixed grill obvs.
Ordered it with pepper corn sauce which didn't arrive with the meal then half way through eating realised there was no steak. Asked one of the servers and they got it from the chef and blamed him.
My only real "beef" no pun intended, was the chicken. It didn't cut or taste like real chicken, it was probably mechanically reconstituted chicken like the crap they make mcnuggets out of.
On the whole nice meal, pleasant environment, friendly staff.
r. j.
Not been to this place for a while , but would go back again . The portions were good sizes and cost of the meal was really reasonable.
s. r.
Food good, relaxing ,but service very slow
E. H.
Always the best steaks anywhere and trust me I love steak. Always very helpful and friendly. Please visit and support them at this difficult time.
P. W.
Good lunchtime menu.. Good value, nice surroundings.
I. W.
First plate taken from the stack wasn't clean.
Fried egg was over cooked and rubbery.
Coffee was very weak.
Fresh fruit and petit pain au chocolat were good.
A. S.
Small meals quite expensive. We were sent a discount voucher via my partners phone but told it wasnt one of theirs although it clearly stated Balmoral in nursling!! Won't be going back I think we'll stick to the Horns Inn next door as never been disappointed there
K. F. (.
Service sometimes is slow, but overall this is a good example of the chain. There is a range of food on the meal deal in conjunction with the Premier Inn. Only major criticism is the entrance to the car park from the main road. There are some traffic lights very close and the traffic often backs up over the entrance.
J. C.
Warm welcome when we went in. Shown where everything was laid out has we had gone for the buffet breakfast. Food was cooked well. Lots of choice. Place was clean and tidy.
S. S.

b. a.
Very slow service,, staff friendly, not a restaurant to go to at lunchtime if time limited. Steaks not very good, not cooked as requested. Half price mains, so can't complain too much.
M. M. h.
Exteme bad service, whole service was put of control

My daughter in law, 3 year old plus 10 month baby and l had a very enjoyable lunch at the Beefeater Balmoral. The staff were very helpful.
R. B.
Bar staff overrun, on top of that they are making puddings. We sat outside and they completely forgot about us... this could be seen on the guys face when after 30 mins waiting for puds I approached him and the realisation he'd forgotten was written all over his face. NOT HIS FAULT... NEED MORE TEAM
J. J.
Menu looks tastier than it is. Pie and Mash had so much horseradish in it you couldn't taste the Mash. And why put the meal in a bowl with everything piled high x
J. H.
Fantastic food, generous portions, good pricing, very attentive and friendly staff. No one could ask for more in this genre of establishment.
M. P.
Generic pub grub. Pub/bar area is rather cramped, but it's geared up mostly to cater to the hotel guests for dinner and breakfast. It can get busy, reservations recommended.
C. A.
Lovely staff but clearly understaffed in the kitchen as food was very slow. Quite noisy too so not somewhere to go for a nice romantic meal.
J. W.
Good food
K. N.
Nice food, good service. Could do with a few more staff and not a very good selection of beers but great for a family meal.

Food is ok but the service is still lacking which is why we stopped going to this place a few years ago, only went back because we heard it had improved, wrong.

I. G.
Really nice Beefeater, but the prices are high. What's gong on Beefeater? Food was ok, service was slow.
R. H.
Most of the time the food is good however occasionally it is a bit overcooked.The service time is a little bit slow but most of the time you wouldn't feel like you had the need to complain.Since the spring 2016 refurbishment the pub\restaurant has improved.Sometimes we find that some items of food are out of stock.One time it was sweetcorn one time.I think 3 and a half to 4 stars is a sensible rating for the Balmoral x
T. M.
