The Coniston Kitchen

This was the worst dining experience I have ever had in terms of both food and customer service. I went with my work colleagues for our Christmas party on a Thursday evening in December.

Group of us went for a xmas dinner on Saturday night,we was very disappointed not only was it very cold it seemed very unorganised and it wasn't even busy, as we got up to get in line for the cavery we couldn't believe what the chef did in which I would rather not elaborate on only to say we wouldn't eat the meat, very unprofessional, I'm sure this is a lovely hotel but if you are going to put on events please get it right.

Food was ****! Only one person behind the bar during the meal. A Muslim colleague had a sausage on his salmon meal and the turkey meal was swimming in gravy. Staff were couldn't care less. Not very helpful. The poor fellow behind the bar was run of his feet.
