I was in Timbers yesterday afternoon, when it became apparent that the new manager had left. I spoke to Glen and Colin and was assured that the sofas would be back this week. Within minutes all the staff decended on the building and there were drinks and smiles all round. The atmosphere late yesterday afternoon was electric, Timbers looks like... More

Timbers has really gone downhill fast since the arrival of the new manager, new increased pricing, different cluttered layout in the bar and staff who look like they just want to go home, we have stopped using this once great place, like many other locals have.

One of our favourite places. Sadly a bad experience was had on a previous visit when a grumpy young blonde female member of staff in charge soured it by being rude to my fiancee. A return visit a few days ago revealed reasonably friendly staff again. One member of staff stands out as outstanding and worth her weight in gold.... More

My son and his family took my husband and I for a special Sunday lunch. He had booked in person several days earlier. When we arrived the restaurant was extremely busy and we should have been aware of problems ahead when they had no trace of our booking. The very grumpy "acting" manager said he would sort it! It took... More

I had lunch at timbers, yes Sunday lunch for £7.99 it must be the best value in town. The new owners have got it right, great food, well done. As for the last review what do you expect for £7.99 best you stay at home. Timbers well done as Arni said I'll be back.

As regular vistors to Timbers we were extremely disapointed when we visited on sunday for the once fantastic carvery. We were greeted by what appeared to be totally unorganised chaos. The usual friendly, happy and experienced staff were no longer present and it seemed that timbers had a new owner a very arrogant middle aged gentlemen? Furniture had been moved... More

I was due to stay in Timbers hotel midweek (a Wednesday evening). I phoned on the Monday before to confirm that I would be arriving at about 10.30pm, they said it was fine and if no one was at reception they would leave a key and note for me at reception. I arrived at about 11pm and the reception and... More

We were with 'Stoke F' (see review below) for the meal and I would like to agree with everything said, I would also like to add that we were seated in a different room to everyone else - on our own - and felt a bit ostracised from the rest of the restaurant. Also it was supposedly 'party night' with... More

We booked weeks in advance for an 8pm sitting for 12 people at £25 per head, at 8.45 no one had even been to check on us let alone apologize for the delay or take a drinks order. Approximately 9.05 we were told the starters would be to our table within two minutes, another 10 minutes pasted again we were... More
