    Script restaurant is an attractive restaurant in a wonderful location overlooking a golf course. The service was good but unfortunately the food was of a low standard, poorly presented and mostly lacking flavour. My chicken was moist & tasty but raw in the centre. The wine selection was not great but our very nice maitre de found a drinkable rose for me.

    While the staff are lovely, friendly, helpful, and polite, and the environment is pictureque and pretty; the food choices were very mediocre and not very exciting. Nothing simple for lunch (no easy foods like sandwiches, jacket pot or salad); just very large plates of food or small underwheling starters. Why can't we have the breakfast menu (eggs) for lunch? Won't be going again for lunch as the food choice was uninspiring

    We ordered a meal that was wrong and had to be sent back. By the time it came out correctly the rest of us had finished our lunch and not even an apology was given. Poor service and poor food! Wouldn’t return

    No manager on shift. Service slow. Forgot starters. Bar staff not trained to make cocktails. Food left beside open door and was luke warm before served.

    The restaurant has bags of potential but is not fulfilling any of it. The restaurant was close to empty on arrival at 8pm. The food was inedible and the cocktails were grim. Definitely don’t rush there unless you are after coffee and the padron peppers
    Script Restaurant & BarResponded on 24 September 2024
    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We're sorry to hear that your recent experience didn't meet your expectations, but we truly appreciate your honesty. We aim to create memorable dining experiences for all our guests, and it's clear we missed the mark this time. Your comments about the food and cocktails are taken very seriously, and we’ll be reviewing them with our kitchen and bar teams to make the necessary improvements. We're glad you enjoyed the coffee and padron peppers, and we’re committed to ensuring that the rest of the menu reaches that same high standard.

    No atmosphere Service engaging and unimpressive Website unclear that brunch menu was unavailable after 11.30. However they did allow us at 11.45 to use it The food was not presented well and very boring looking for what it cost. They also used random bread rather than the menu said sour dough. And to cap it all my daughter who is allergic to dairy could not get her tomatoes or mushrooms cooked in oil. Apparently they have to be cooked in butter!
    Script Restaurant & BarResponded on 24 September 2024
    Thank you for your detailed feedback. We're sorry to hear that your recent visit didn’t live up to your expectations, but we’re grateful for your comments as they help us to improve. We sincerely apologise for the presentation and bread mix-up as well; these are not the standards we strive for, and we'll address this with our kitchen team immediately. Regarding the preparation of your daughter's meal, we understand how important it is to cater to dietary needs, and it’s disappointing to hear we didn’t offer a more suitable solution. This is definitely an area we will revisit to better meet the needs of our guests with allergies and special requests. We hope you’ll give us another opportunity to provide the experience you deserve.

    Stunning place, the food is nice but nothing special, coffees not brilliant if you're a coffee snob. The staff could be a tad friendlier. Its worth it for the place though.

    We were booked for a birthday dinner, however on arrival, was made aware that the menu had been reduced to a few items, Appreciate that there has been a new chef introduced, but then it was expect the limited items to be amazing. Overall extremely disappointed

While we are excited about our new chef, I understand that the limited menu did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your feedback and will use it to ensure we improve. Please accept our apologies, and I hope we can make it up to you in the future.
