9 members of our daily swimming club had a really good Christmas Lunch at the Border Minstrel yesterday. Dean, the Manager, has been very accommodating throughout. he made sure that the whole experience was safe and enjoyable, nothing was a problem for him or his staff . The food was excellent, plentiful and good quality. The price was very reasonable, and much better value for money than many other events that we've organised. We were looked after attentively and we'll certainly be back in future.

Staff seemed slow and very unexepierenced, food took ages to arrive! (Maybe 30/45 mins after order). They told us table service was available but didnt recieve had to make orders at bar. When tried couldn't get the managers attention as was busy conversating and smoking. When finally got his attention and spoke with him got nothing but rudeness and a few profanities!! Dnt recommend! Over priced and horrible hospitality!!! Never again.

Waited ages for service and ended up being told by a cocky, prima-Donna waiter that, if I didn't like it, I could take my custom elsewhere - BUT NOT IN THOSE WORDS!
Methinks he has an over-inflated ego and needs to be reminded by the management that customers are very hard to find and much more easy to lose..
