   It's a bit boring giving five stars for everything, but we have been to DTH a number of times and it keeps delivering. We've just had three Canadian breakfast skillets. They were fantastic enough in themselves - the Canadian twist on the full breakfast being extra pancakes and loads of maple syrup - and even more fantastic to discover that the DTH breakfast skillets deal (two skillets, coffee and fruit juice for £23) now runs on Friday mornings! The food is great, there is plenty of it and it is good value for the price. The option to buy gift cards is very handy, especially when there have been occasional offers on those. We have been for breakfast and for late lunches various times. It's interesting to see some other reviews mentioning the service. We have always found it friendly and efficient, with servers not only going the extra mile, but often doing so without actually being asked. This morning was typical - what a friendly server! Our experience has been the same whether it's been quiet - as it was at 9 am today - or a busy weekend afternoon. When booking on OpenTable, I have always picked up that slots are one hour for small groups, one hour 15 minutes for larger groups. But we have never needed that time nor have we ever felt rushed in any case. Our orders are taken quickly, the food appears promptly and we get the bill when we ask for it. We leave happy and well fed. A great combination!

   We are fairly regular visitors to DTH and usually enjoy the experience, however yesterday my wife's Hatchburger was not up to standard as it was overcooked and dry as if it had been sitting on the side for a period of time - in fact the burger was inedible and she couldn't eat it. We reported this to our server when settling the bill and he said he would pass this on. On reflection I think that we should have been offered a refund on her burger as it was not edible and was left on the plate.

   We went along on the off chance that we could get a table as I could see from online there was lots of space so didn't' think I needed to book. Was told I would need to wait over an hour for a table so left and went online and booked a table for 10 minutes later (which was then pushed back 20) but still got in much quicker than waiting an hour - not sure what that was all about? Staff were lovely and helpful, food was great value and tasty (although I would probably have less fried bread around the sandwiches as they were quite greasy and made finishing them very hard), chips were delicious.

   Sorry - don’t see the attraction. Meal was a pile of chips with sauce and bacon and ‘shredded’ chicken. Won’t be back.

    Tasty food, I only had option of a cold chicken sandwich due to a garlic allergy. They couldn’t use their grills to give me an alternative incase of cross contamination . No bathroom facilities on site , nearest toilet nearby in car park however staff didn’t give the access number , bit of a hassle. Just small details that could make it a better experience

    Disappointed to see that brunch was over for 11.45 and only the afternoon menu there, seems very early to curtail breakfast. Found food (poutrine) was good, but overly salty. Also the music was deafening at times- too loud to carry on a conversation. On positive side, others in our group enjoyed their burgers and the coffee was excellent as usual.

    Really disappointing experience. Took 30 mins before order for anything was taken - only 3 servers that we could see and not a full outside area at this time (11am). Food was average - ordered Canadian skillet and had to ask for maple syrup as little to none could be tasted. Asked for a Coke Zero and took over 18 minutes to come. On paying the bill the server thought we were just arriving and asked how many did we need a table for. Didn’t ask how our food was or experience had been. First time visiting and very disappointing.

    Overall I am very satisfied, the food is exactly how it looks on Facebook and the Dirty Fries are second to none. To make this 5 stars I would’ve like to have either some fresh wipes (the little lemon sachet ones) as there is no toilet facility on the premises so there is nowhere for me to wash my hands, it’s something I’m big on after eating. There are toilets in the vicinity, but I believe my point stands. The service overall was very friendly, once we had been attended it was on point it was probably just the length of time it took to get served was a little longer than I’d like with people being seated after us but served first. This was the first time I have visited and I will certainly go back, as always I think there are some small improvements can be made. 9/10 would definitely recommend.

    Been here before and quite liked it,returned yesterday for a meal with my other half and it so overpriced now that we nearly walked away without eating.£10-14 for a burger and £4-11 for fries add £6.50 if you want a milkshake and you’ve spent £20+ on a burger chips and drink.Won’t be back yes burgers are good but so full of meat they fall to pieces in 2 bites.

    Loved our meal etc but when booking it asked for any special anniversary etc and I stated it was my husbands 40th birthday meal on this date. I had expected an acknowledgment atleast of this special day when we arrived but nothing. Just wondering why you ask for this on the booking if you don’t take note of it? Thanks

    Really excellent. They even offered to change my apple juice for an orange juice when I realised I had ordered the wrong thing. Portions are mahoosive so had to take some home (which was excellent this morning). Highly recommend. Only slight fly in the ointment was the cooking smell indoors but that was to be expected with the chefs being so close and to be fair, it's more a me problem than DTH. I had the Spanish breakfast and the Mrs the Canadian the food was excellent quality and well executed. As Cherish Findern would say "... Love it, love it, love it!" 😅

    Decent food. Nice staff although service was average. Very noisy due to not very well behaved dogs. We were outdoors though. Food is ok but a bit expensive for what you get.

    Fabulous food, but really bad vibes. The older waiting staff (?Managers / ?owners) were unpleasant. The attitude from arrival was very unwelcoming and simple requests like a fully cooked egg for a pregnant woman were not taken well. It was an absolutely horrible feeling! And then at the end THEY decided we were done & arrived with a card machine for us to pay and leave. Food delicious, obviously good kitchen staff & the younger wait team were absolutely lovely!! Just avoid the older man & woman at all costs.
