My partner and I had breakfast and the food was faultless. Fluffy scrambled egg and lovely fresh thick granary bread. My partner had the eggs benedict which he thoroughly enjoyed. The reason for my low score was I was really aggravated by a staff member complaining to who I think may have been the Manager and making lots of disparaging comments about another employees lack of work. This went on for a fair amount of time we were there. Whilst these conversations need to be had, they should be away from where customers can hear. I felt her comments created a toxic environment and I left feeling
