The Hamptons Delicatessen

We recently went for brunch. It was busy but we had pre-booked. Food was good although service a bit hit miss. The thing that caused me to write this review is due to the following. As we were leaving an elderly lady on her own who was clearly a local judging by the amount of people she spoke to came in and asked for a table. She was asked had she booked and she said no and the female who served her said they had no tables and were fully booked. Immediately behind her, as she left 3 people asked for a table (who I know were not local) and they also clearly stated they had not booked. However as they were a larger quantity of people the same female who served the elderly lady said, not a problem come with me! While I understand places need to make money, to turn the elderly lady away and accept a party of 3 is a disgrace. The elderly lady is local and would spend more in a year in there than the party of 3. You clearly prioritise your profits over locals and also more importantly how to treat people. A message to the female serving, imagine if that was your elderly relative, would you want her treated that way?? Will never set foot in here again and would advise others to avoid it.

We had a pleasant lunch overall, but the service was slow due to insufficient staff for the number of tables. We had to wait a while to place our order. The food was good, but we were disappointed by being asked to vacate our table. Most of the staff were polite and friendly, but there was one lady who was abrupt and rude.

First visit for family brunch. Food was delicious and service was good. I was going to give a great review but unfortunately I witnessed something which I found upsetting. As we were leaving, an elderly lady came in on her own. A staff member asked her if she was alone and when she replied yes the staff member told her that there were no available tables and she left. Behind her was a group of three who also hadn’t booked but they were told a table would be found for them. What a rubbish way to treat an elderly lady on her own. Clearly tables were available but she wasn’t going to spend enough for her to get one. I won’t be returning.

Booked for 12.45 very busy but didn’t have to wait long for the waitress to take our order.. loads on the menu to choose from … Went for the veggie breakfast, delicious…

Great friendly atmosphere, great service and lovely food. Was served really quickly despite it being busy. Just wish we had found this place sooner!
