Brewhouse cafe

Enjoyed a nice lunch. We had a tuna sandwich, Italian stew and sausage bap. All were tasty. We ordered and got our food and drinks swiftly and sat inside. The tables could be cleared quicker and cleaned. Overall a nice place to catch a bite and hot drink after a walk in Knole.

My experience as a vegetarian was not at all good at this place. On our order of potato wedges with cheese & chives, a pieces of bacon was found stuck with one potato wedges. This was confirmed by my husband who is not a vegetarian. When this was pointed out to the staff, none of the staff apologized for this mistake. Second time, only on our request, they provided us potato wedges but forgot to put the chives on it, as per our initial order. I think that the management of this eatery need to educate their hired staff respect vegetarian style of life and be careful in preparing and serving food. The carelessness in serving food may cause severe health consequences if some is allergic to certain food. Or may violate others' religious preferences as well.

This is the cafe on the Knole Park Estate (National Trust). You have to book to park. The cafe is, as usual for NT, wonderful. Excellent bacon bap and coffe first thing in the morning. In October the stags are rutting so its very exciting. Lovely long walks.

Paid 6.50 for a terrible weak cappuccino and a very dry and unpleasant dense banana and chocolate bread. I wanted to complain there and then and quite frankly I should have complained to one of the many staff that seem to just stand there while the queue was getting larger but it’s half term so chose not to. Didn’t finish either and threw away. Disappointing as has so much potential. I’ve been coming here for several years and coffee getting worse. Please check your machine and train your staff.

Great hot chocolate and cakes, but for the love of god do something about the queues. 30 minutes for a couple of hot chocolates makes me want to scream. Have a separate drinks queue maybe?

30 minutes queuing for hot drinks. Put off by the girl taking the cash payment also handling the coffee cups, (fingers inside the cup as she writes "latte" on it) .And also around the rim of the cup. Poor hygene standards.
Slow service and food over-priced.
We'll take a flask next.

Speed of service was atrocious. Why not separate out the hot drinks from the buffet? Nice venue, but totally unfair and unacceptable to queue for 30 minutes.

Lovely service from plenty of staff, it fact they could not have been nicer. The cakes are well hidden and at first I thought they had run out!! Panic over the lovely ladies told us what cakes they had, including 2 Christmas options. The chocolate brownies were perfect! Very nicely decorated for Christmas as well.
