    We went here for my parents Diamond Wedding Anniversary. Everyone opted for Sunday lunch,which was excellent. I'm not fond of large portions,but this was good for me. The next table had fish and chips which also looked good. The staff are really friendly and service was very good. I was allowed to take the cake in the day before,and leave it..which was a good. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone. The hotel is very quirky with 1920's vibes. Check out the table on the ceiling.

    Took a long time to be attended to and seated. Ended up having drinks in the bar whilst we waited. Table wasn’t set up. Apparently we’d been called re our booking to ascertain what we wanted, though I had explicitly booked 4 x Afternoon Tea. Our table wasn’t set up and other tables hadn’t been cleared away. It had clearly been busy. Our waiter went above and beyond but we waited at least 40 minutes for our food. The quality and selection of food was great though the vegetarian request comprised of one sandwich filling where previously there’d been 2/3. The waiter was as attentive as he could be given that there were so few staff available.

    Overpriced & Poor quality Sunday roast. 3 almost wafer thin slices of pre-cooked "roast Beef" which almost looked like processed meat, Burnt Yorkshire pudding, 3 tiny "roast" potatoes which were soggy and far from being roast potatoes. it was, quite probably the worst sunday roast, but at least it was edible. For £16.95, it was way overpriced and extremely disappointing. The server, was literally just that...a plate server. Had to wait a long time to call the server twice, as she seemed to only be focused on what she was doing, and if she disappeared into the kitchen. Summary: poor quality food, poor service, way, way, way overpriced.

    The Afternoon Tea at the Earl of Doncaster is one of the best we have ever had. The savoury is a lovely option and we normally get one of each and share. We will look forward to visiting again soon. Highly recommended.

    Excellent service today with very attentive staff! Food was plentiful with the sandwiches being of a particular good quality. Being the Earl of Doncaster, the ambiance didn't disappoint.

    When we arrived at 8.00pm on a Friday evening it was clear that the restaurant was not very busy and once seated we soon found out why. The restaurant had a lot of staff missing and when we came to order our food we were informed that five or six main courses were not available which severely restricted our choice especially as there was not a specials board available. The quality of the food was not the good either. However the front of house staff were very good and tried to ensure we were happy with restaurant experience. We have been to this restaurant several times in recent years and therefore we were disappointed that our evening was not what we were expecting. Clearly they have issues at present and need to resolve them quickly before it gets any worse.
