We went for lunch and it was pretty dead in there, despite this we still had to wait 15 minutes for our order to be taken. Unfortunately it wasn't worth the wait, the bread was stale, the vegetable sticks starter we ordered for our daughter were dry and clearly hasn't been stored well. The mains were OK, but really not worth the price. The Sports Bar offers a far better range and value for money.
There was a small play area for little kids which was a nice touch. The pizza was a bit salty and the linguine needed a little more salt. The kids meal was just right. However the service was not great, we asked for water a couple of times and it didn't arrive and had to wait ~25 mins to pay as their card machine was not working. After waiting for a while, I then had to leave and come back to pay.
Raquel looked after us as if we were family. Food was delicious and fresh. Delivered to our table quickly. Mocktails beautifully presented and delicious. Thank you Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly and inclusive
Want to leave 4.5 stars for Amalfi. It would have been 5, but there were only 3 choices of main dishes on offer to me as a vegan which was a shame. That said, I've never been served food as quickly as at Amalfi. I wasn't clock watching but I'd suggest maybe 4-5 minutes for the food to be delivered to the table piping hot and tasty. My daughter's fresh pizza was a minute or two later. Same for the desserts. I had the only vegan option, Budino, which was lovely and a nice change from the usual culprits in restaurants. I'd definitely come back, and wish we'd eaten here earlier during our stay.
Okay so first up don’t treat your customers like this. Cancel culture is something that is disrespectful. You may be slightly busy and trying to do your job but we both felt excluded from your service, your effort and your attention. The food was good The waitress experience transformed good food into a bad experience. Just be present, respectful and kind. Life is not a conveyor belt, experience and food go hand in hand.
Ordered the lobster “tails” on spaghetti, only got half of a single lobster tail on top of some overcooked pasta with watery sauce.
Up there with the worst experiences I've had. Feel bad for the waitress but 3/6 starters didn't come out at all. Annoyingly 2 were the kids and they were pretty upset about it. The 2 pizzas that came out were average but the mac and cheese, spag bol and milanese were barely touched. My "porcetta" was a gammon steak and the potatoes were hard. We were gracious but very unhappy and when the bill came out a conversation had to happen. Bad service, bad food and ludicrous prices. Avoid like the plague.
Very good experience. It was my friend’s birthday, a fuss was made. Smiles all round.
What a special night to finish our stay at Center Parcs! The staff were super-friendly, especially Callum who made us feel like we were almost lifelong friends; rarely (if ever!) have I seen this level of customer service on all my travels. He even took time to talk to our grandchildren and add something to their night too. Truly a wonderful night!
