    For a change I ordered the Big Blue Bacon & Cheese burger with Shoestring Fries after my Chicken and Chorizo Arancini starter. It was absolutely delicious. A really decent sized beef patty with plenty of flavour, and not too dry. Just perfect. And the fries were very tasty, and nice and crispy. To compliment this I had a nice cold pint of Estrella Damm lager, and together it all went down a treat.

    Yet another great breakfast. Great choices, whether it be cereals, or continental, or a full English.

    We have used the Big Blue on numerous occasions and always been very pleased with all aspects but this time the food wasn't too good we had the set menu , I ordered the Pork Schnitzel which was very tough couldn't cut it so I left it all. The staff although very polite was not very attentive we asked one member of staff for some water she said she would bring it straight away but never came back , and although we waited quite a while for them to remove the plates and ask for our dessert order we left without it
