"I’m local and been coming to the Blue Egg on and off for some time. Whilst the Setting is very pleasant and the food consistently of a good quality the general persona of staff has become increasingly uptight and ill mannered. We have still visited the premises on the basis that the bad service is worth suffering for the good food and Child friendly setting. It would be great to pop in, have a wholesome lunch then leave not feeling frustrated from a negative interaction with snobby or negative staff member. The waitresses really need to learn to smile they all look miserable. As a customer I have often felt like a inconvenience to staff members when visiting the restaurant and been meet with cold, in genuine, ill mannered responses when ordering, enquiring ect. This is the case more often than not."

Stopped here on a road trip, great little find and great service. Food very tasty and lots to choose from. Good covid-19 safety measure too. Will definitely return again.

One of the best lunches I’ve had, ordered the tandoori flatbread and it was a absolute dream. Fantastic service and reasonably priced, will return. Thank you knead food/blue egg

Our third time driving over when the website and the phone message say it’s open and we get there and it’s not. No idea why they can’t update their hours and no idea why after so much loss for small businesses they would be closed on a Sunday.

Popped into the Blue Egg whilst out with a few of the guys on a bike ride, was firstly impressed that there was somewhere to lock our bikes, it was busy but plenty of space inside and out to sit, the selection of cakes and pastries is mind blowing and the portions are huge. The coffee was first class and hot. What a gem this place is. Will certainly be visiting again for the amazing cake when we are allowed.

My friend and I popped in for lunch last Saturday hoping we might get a table. However they have increased their outside eating area and there were plenty of tables . We ordered (they have a very good Health and Safety setup) and we were very pleased with our meals , the food was hot and plenty of it , having ordered large chip portions .There was a good variety of meals and I can recommend the veggie burger . We shall return when next in the area

I understand we are all Covid aware, but being closed on a Sunday is just Covid adverse. Covid doesn’t pick days of the week!!!Further to that, closing an hour and a half early on a week day isn’t that logical either. The doors are open but not a kettle on site to make a cup of tea, yup that’s all it would have taken for you not to be reading this. Nice food, average surroundings both front and rear and clearly lacklustre business ethics. Altogether a bit of a shame really...

I’m not one to leave reviews but I simply will not allow others to make the mistake I did in coming to this cafe. Yesterday I visited with my two young children expecting a lovely family day out but was left with nothing but disappointment. Where do I start. The service was appalling and every time I was met with a worker the hostile assistance was highly off putting. The food was cold and dry and the cafe on a whole was far too noisy. The only positive takeaway I had from my entire visit was the young, red headed girl behind the till who I’m upset I didn’t see more of. Her cheery and accommodating service was unfortunately overshadowed by the overall displeasure of my stay.

Just had lunch having eaten here before and was very disappointed. Considering the prices are at restaurant levels, the quality is not good enough. Had a chilli jacket and a goats cheese and red onion quiche at nearly £10 each. The jacket potato was lukewarm at best as was the chilli which was also dry. You could tell that isn’t wasn’t hot enough as the cheese didn’t melt at all. The quiche was a small portion which was ok however someone in the kitchen needs to know how to peel onions as it still had the tough outer skin left in which is inedible. To add to this the glasses for our drinks were dirty which the staff told me they were aware of but seem reluctant to do anything about. Just see...

We were looking forward to our first meal out since last summer and chose the Blue Egg as there was always something nice to eat for everyone. Three generations went for brunch last Friday and I ordered one of my favourites, poached egg on avocado on toast.My meal appeared...both eggs on one piece of toast, two slices of avocado on the side and two rock hard, small butter pats. One egg was missing most of the white and was overcooked and cold, the other was lukewarm. I had to move the eggs off the toast which was now soggy, attempt to spread the butter, mash the avocado (not possible as it was under ripe) and reassemble my meal. It was all completely cold by then.I didn't make a fuss at the...

"We came here on a last minute hunt to find a Sunday roast with family without much expectations. However when entering its a lovely set up and we were greeted by Lee and Alison who looked after us for the meal who just to begin were absolutely brilliant, they really care about the customers and make this place extra special. Now for the food you can get a 2 or 3 course meal so everybody made various selections but all had starters. Most went for the Aarancina which isn't your usual starter with a Sunday roast but for here it packs alot of flavour and is a great way to start the meal. They have a great selection of alcoholic beverages I went for a simple beer. For the main roasts we had a variety of meats I wanted the pork but sadly they had no crackling which was half the reason for ordering but if I am being honest after eating the meal it wasn't missed out the meat was tasty full of flavour but the sides were the key. The roast potatoes were of a top level usually when you eat out they are never as good as eating at home, the Yorkshire were huge and tasty, gravy brilliant with plenty to go around and lots of veg and cauliflower cheese on the side. Honestly this was excellent a really good roast probably the best I have ever ate in a resteraunt. Some of the others had the lamb shank which was huge and had great feedback but the beef was great and so was everything else. So yes check it out eat in and eat some great food in a nice setting with absolutely brilliant service you won't be disappointed."

"What can I say….We held our wedding dinner and impromptu party ! on the mezzanine floor and had the time of our lives with our nearest and dearest. It’s been a pretty special place for us as we dined at the House by Hilly Gant to check the area out before moving from London and so as we were having a small wedding of 22 people we felt this was the best place to have our wedding. Suzanne and the team could not have done anything more to make our afternoon and evening so perfect. The food was outstanding and our guests were very impressed Harry and his cocktail making skills are second to none. Huge shout out to all the kitchen staff who’s attention to detail and timings were spot on. Leading up to the day itself Suzanne took charge and offered her expert advice on how to dress the room and made so much effort with our requirements. 3 children and 1 baby as part of the guest list! . The beef in particular was spectacular and the chocolate fondant was sublime. We honestly didn’t want to leave. After dinner Suzanne was able to crank the music up and we had a little party ensuring all the guests downstairs were still well looked after our friends were actually dining downstairs and were able to join us towards the latter part of the evening! From the bottom of our hearts thank you so much to everyone for making it so special for us. I’m not surprised that you were recently awarded your second rosette, totally deserved. For anyone looking for quality food, locally sourced, and beautifully executed this is the place to come. SEE YOU SOON and thank you again x"
