Went to Poppies for lunch after reading a review about it.
The outdoor garden setting is really wonderful, you wouldn't realise that the bustle of Poppies Lane is right outside.
The service the first time we went was fab, attentive and friendly.
We had the Tuna and a Caesar Salad both of which were very tasty, overall we thought it was the setting that really made the place.
Went there again with our kids and unfortunately this time there was only one waiter and we had to go and find him more than once. We sat for ages waiting for service and when nobody came we had to go and find someone. I ordered a fresh garden salad which sounded good, the lettuce was wilted and tough and the whole thing had no flavour so I sent it back. Because our meals had taken so long to come I didn't bother to order anything else.
It was a real shame as our first visit was so good but I wouldn't be going back.
