    The food is surprisingly good for this type of restaurant. It is varied, well presented, tasty and excellent value for money. Service is good too. And toilets are nice too.

    Unfortunately the place is marred by a lack of cleanliness. The carpets were dirty with lots of bits on them, and we had a lot of ants moving around on our table when we went. This restaurant could be a fantastic place to go with a little attention to detail. Like use of a hoover! "

    The food at Callenders is lovely. The environment needs minimal attention to improve the ambiance. Firstly turn the radio off - who wants to eat a nice meal listening to the radio? Secondly the floor needs a more frequent hoovering and lastly the tables look scruffy. They need re- varnishing or some sort of covering. I really like this restaurant, the staff and the food. Hope the owner can improve the dining experience further. "
