Oh dear, what have they done with our favourite garden centre restaurant, The Olive Tree? It's gone from what used to be a regular place for lunch, to somewhere we probably won't return again.





As an example of how the restaurant is now going, we had twice previously been charged 50p for a pot of extra hot water to supplement the small tea-pots that they used. Admittedly when we complained we were told it was a mistake, but it does make you wonder.

One can't but wonder if they have overstretched themselves now, as there are a lot of staff, plus they open in the evenings. Maybe they have to cut costs and it's being done at the expense of the food, which is a real shame. Mind you, in it's defence, it does seem pretty full up every time we go - maybe it's the rich area it's in but surely people will start to realise soon that the portion sizes are dropping.

It is sad, but we shan't be going back there again until things change.
