Fantastic food. Well presented, good portions, excellent quality. All with some idyllic scenery across the Dee Estuary.
Not quite a 5 star review due to service.
You get the impression the staff are all new. No one directing them. It's very hit and miss if you manage to get anyone's attention at your table. They are missing a significant amount of extra income due to this.
We weren't asked about drinks, deserts, coffees etc and it was easily 40mins after we'd finished eating before finally managing to get someone's attention for a bill. Not all of this time was spent waiting, but it was perfect time to upsell those extras mentioned above.
The staff were so friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. The food was delicious, we had two courses and struggled to get through dessert and the portion sizes were big. I highly recommend visiting this place and would go again! I didn’t catch the name of the two gentlemen working on Monday 21st June but they were great and did an amazing job!
When walking up to Sheldrakes you'd be forgiven for being apprehensive about what you'd booked for as the marshland around it can look desolate and in need of a revamp HOWEVER if you let that put you off you will have really missed out. The owners can't control the area but what they can control is the restaurant and they do a cracking job of it. The attention to detail from the very attentive staff, the ambience of the restaurant, the amazing views and the fabulous food all make it a lovely evening! It has a real feel of a holiday taverna and makes you feel like you've had a real break from the norm. Lovely place! The owners and staff deserve a real pat on the back!!
