Andel Lodge - Carta

We had a glorious Sunday lunch again today. Its the best in the area. food is always piping hot, served well and presented. Choice of three meats with four different vegetables and roast potatoes. Homemade Yorkshire puddings and lovely gravy.

A very warm welcome had lunch in the bar food cooked from scratch so it took a bit of time witch we don't mind price very reasonable and food was very tasty very hot witch we liked but the bar area was cold as this was December i would have thought the heating should be on

Our family of 6 had our Christmas lunch this year at Anvil Lodge. So very disappointing. We were all crammed in , no space, and the service was appalling. Waited so long between courses. Food was brought in all plated up including gravy like a transport cafe. Champagne served in a marquee type place that smelled badly of gas and not enough chairs. Will never go there again Ver carta

Stayed at the Andel Lodge for a couple of nights breakfast and Dinner both of which were amazing. Staff were really helpful and friendly. They had a couple of functions on which kept the,busy but we were always well attended . The functions did not disturb our stay at all. Yes the road is noisy but it’s easy to get every where . The bathroom was spotless and room well presented .

We attended for a group lunch. Two people to serve 40. One behind bar in lounge serving also in function room. Slow unsure service and expensive for some. Food received and was ok but some experienced a long delay and one gluten free meal had terrible gravy. With only two serving the food it took a long time and was not a controlled event. This was far from what had been a good previous experience. We will not go again.

Unfortunately we invited the family to Christmas lunch with us. We had my grandson who is 12 with us. He asked if the Yorkshire puddings had been cooked on the sun. They were black as were some of the baked potatoes. Obviously been waiting in the oven for hours. Our main meal didn’t arrive until almost 3pm. The beef was advertised as rib which it most certainly wasn’t. Hard to tell as the slice was so small. There were three waitresses to serve in the region of 60 people. Never again. Ver carta

Stayed at the Andel Lodge while attending a motor racing event at the nearby Adrian Flux Arena. Overall the room was nice. A little musty but that soon aired out. The bed was one of the most comfortable I have slept in. On the down side for a family room the bathroom was lacking. There was no anti-slip mat on the gloss tiled floor which for kids is not good. Also the hot water was very very hot from the tap. You will not find four star facilities or decor at the Lodge but you will find a warm welcome and a comfy bed.

Have passed the Andel Lodge many times and each time commenting that we must give this a try! Let down at Arbuckles, we tried our luck and they were able to feed us! Nice friendly atmosphere, and nice restaurant, but we Elle Ted to eat in the bar. Food excellent and good prices. Varied menu and was able to satisfy all our pallets. ...only negative that stopped me giving 5 star was the fact that service was slow. There was only one person in the bar area, serving drinks and taking orders and whilst really friendly the delays were inevitable as she could only be in one place at a time. That being said the quality of the food was worth the slight wait. We are looking forward to going back.....w...

We spent time here recently in one of the cabins attached to the main building with our dogs. The room was clean but tiny and dark and the bathroom smelt musty. It was badly in need of an update I can’t imagine when it was last done. The beds were uncomfortable. The road was noisy constant traffic including lorries which kept is awake most of the night. It was good to have a small grassy area at the back to take our dogs for a wee. Lots of tea coffee and toiletries provided which was nice and most of the staff were very friendly. Due to my husband being taken ill we had to stay an extra night, we were charged over £90 for this which I thought expensive compared to what we had paid for the re... Ver carta
