Makeney Hall - Carta

This hall has lovely friendly efficient staff and it’s a lovely old hall grounds , we were a table of four for Sunday dinner and I couldn’t fault the quality of and presentation of the food we will definitely be going back in the near future .

We've been twice. Once for dinner and once for a champagne breakfast. On both occasions, there were slight issues with the convenience of the layout and considerable wait times. However, on both occasions, the food, drink, and service were perfect and very modestly priced.

I had a Groupon afternoon tea today, February 2nd, and I must say it was absolutely beautiful and incredibly good value. There was a lovely selection of fresh sandwiches and cakes served by a kind lady with blonde hair who was very attentive. We ate in the conservatory which was warm and had a lovely view. I will definitely come back again - thank you for a great day! Ver carta

Attended a family birthday at Makeny Hall and it was first class. It’s a lovely old building set in stunnning grounds with plenty of car parking.There was a great choice of food on the menu and the meal itself was excellent and served very professionally by efficient and attentive staff.For those wanting a drink there is a good choice at the bar.All in all a nice experience.

Used the Resturant part of this hotel before, having enjoyed our previous visits we decided to take our family for some Christmas fare, now 17 of us not any easy number to cater for although we did use their set menu selection which was more than adequate. Service was good, food arrived on time with the orders correct, and, we did not feel rushed. Large groups or couples are well catered for with plenty of space to get out the way for quiet time if required. Great setting, and easy to get around for those with mobility problems.

The restaurant has a beautiful and spacious warm room, with a lovely corner bath that was very useful after a cold day at Alton Towers. The place was very clean and we were provided with free bottled water, both still and sparkling. The breakfast the next morning was a bit on the expensive side for what we received. There was a good variety of choices, but the presentation could have been better. The eggs Benedict I ordered looked like it was simply thrown on the plate. The staff was attentive and friendly. I would consider returning to the restaurant, but I would not opt for the £15 breakfast again. Ver carta

I had a lovely three course dinner party with my family and friends for my birthday recently, and the whole experience was excellent. I had requested a round table so all eight of us could sit around and speak and enjoy the relaxing and beautiful dining room. The gentle piano background music was perfect and added to the elegant ambiance. The staff were all lovely, and the restaurant manager, Oliver, made sure everything was perfect for us. All the dishes on the menu for the evening were delightful. Perfect seasoning, balance, and portion sizes, so that the three courses were comfortably manageable. My guests all remarked on their various choices, and said how tasty it all was. I was so plea...

I purchased the Groupon deal for sparkling afternoon tea for two and decided to book in for 2:30pm on a Sunday. My friend and I arrived a little early and were greeted by a lady on the reception desk who directed us to the room that was serving the afternoon tea. There was only one server working in this room and most of the tables were taken or needed clearing. The room was very warm and stuffy so we asked for a jug of water. The server brought over a pot of tea (not loose leaf) for two and I had to remind her about the glass of Prosecco, this arrived sometime later. The cake stand had seen better days and wasn’t stable on the table. We found the sandwich fillings very basic and so were the...

My wife and I visited Makeney Hall today, Sunday 14th of May, for lunch on a Group-on deal, we bought the 2 course option and had a main of roast beef and a dessert. On the whole the food is very good apart from my dessert which was served cold, apple crumble and custard, but this was eventually rectified. The down side was the attention to detail, all the tables around us were offered a bread roll, we were not but maybe that was because we were on a Group-on deal. When we got the main course no one asked if we needed any sauces or anything else, I wanted more gravy because what was on the plate was very limited. When I was served my dessert it was cold and I could not attract the attention... Ver carta
