We went for a Sunday roast. We’d pre-booked, with requests and all were accommodated. Food was great, but the service was fairly slow, we weren’t offered any additional drinks and had to ask a few times just to get some tap water. All the staff were very friendly thoughThey have two disabled parking bays but the are against a wall, so we really struggled to get my elderly grandparents out of the car. Would highly suggest they move these to make them more accessible

Had a lovely Sunday lunch at The Birch today. They have only just reopened and were very busy but everything was great.Every member of staff seemed happy and were all very personable, a great example of how hospitality should be.Food was equally great and we will definitely be back!

Although I have known of The Birch for many years, it's taken me this long to actually visit and I wish I had sooner. We went to celebrate my wife's birthday and it didn't disappoint..The food and service were impeccable. The service was friendly and attentive, never intrusive. The menu has something for everyone and there were also many additional dishes on the specials menu. Pricing is toward the upper end but appropriate for the level of quality on offerWe'll be coming backagain for sure

Probably our third visit to The Birch. I would not hesitate to recommend this lovely restaurant. We went for an anniversary celebration and from the moment we walked in the staff we friendly and attentive. The food was amazing and it was a lovely touch to be given an anniversary card by the team . It’s not a cheap meal out if that is what you are looking for but it’s worth every penny for the fantastic service and delicious food . Thank you for a lovely evening .

Great Sunday lunch with some lovely service. Also great of Mark to take some time to say hello and have a chat with us even though I’m guessing this is his busy service of the week.

When we arrived we were told to follow a member of staff to our table.He didn’t say hello or acknowledge us- just marched ahead and we followed.He placed the menus on the table and just left.Nobody came to ask us if we wanted drinks etc. We sat there reading the menus and waited whilst staff busily walked past. After 10 minutes, we had to call a passing waitress to order drinks.She didn’t ask if we were ready to order food just went off.Drinks came and again just left us and another 10 minutes passed and whilst other customers who came after us were served- we were left.We ordered table water along with the wine but a bottle of water was brought and opened before we could say anything.We didn’t want to stay for a dessert or coffee as we weren’t enjoying our dining experience.When the bill came, I asked for the service charge be removed as we didn’t receive a good service from any of the staff.When the new bill was brought by the manager he appeared miffed and just placed it on the table.If that was me, I would of taken the opportunity to ask if we had a good meal etcStaff seemed they didn’t want to give eye contact or be particularly friendly. The only one who did was the young lad at the bar who greeted us.When two large parties arrived- staff were attentive including the owner- an obvious difference from the lack of service we received.The food we enjoyed but that didn’t make up for the poor service.We sent feedback directly to them but instead of any form of apology, received, via a phone call, a defensive, almost aggressive response, indirectly calling me a liar and almost our fault for turning up 20 minutes to early! The manager thought it was okay to talk over me and not listen but didn’t like it when I talked over him.Shame he didn’t want to take the opportunity to apologise but obviously thought he was in the right

The food was great, but what stood out was the service. Drink and food orders were taken quickly and we were regularly checked on throughout the meal. Everything came out promptly and tasted great.

Food and service up to its normal high standards. Thoroughly enjoyable lunch with my family, some who travelled from mid Wales. They were not disappointed.

My husband and I visited the birch on Saturday 14th October. It was our 51st wedding anniversary we had been to the birch on many occasions so thought it was a good idea celebrate there. When we got there we was fully expecting to be seated in the restaurant, instead we was given a table for 2 in the bar we asked to be moved to the restaurant and was told it was fully booked no one called us to say it was fully booked that evening.We waited for around 15min to be asked if we would like a drink felt as if we had been forgotten. We ordered our food which wasn't that great either we didn't have a sweet as I just wanted to go home. We asked the barmaid for the bill which showed a 10% surcharge which that was fine no problem the bill came to £78 we gave her £80 then she asked us if we wanted the change of course we said yes as we was paying the surcharge thought that was a cheek.If I wanted a bar meal I would have gone to the local pub we paid restaurant prices to be sat in a bar.Moral of this experience is check where you are sitting before you go. We won't be going back in a hurry.

Poor experience!Booked in for the Xmas 3 course menu, phoned ahead to submit food orders but was told it wasn’t necessary & we could order on the night.Arrived on the night to be told we couldn’t have the 3 course menu because we didn’t submit our order!Argued our point but were told firmly that we wernt allowed the menu..Reluctantly accepted & ordered from the a la carte.My meal (roast turkey) was terrible, dry stale food. Asked for more gravy which arrived when I’d practically finished!One of the worst roast dinners I’ve ever eaten to be honest.My date enjoyed her meal (lamb shoulder) thankfully, albeit a tiny portion.Asked them to remove the service charge, which they did.If you’re thinking of eating here, don’t bother, head back into Woburn or Woburn sands.
