Verve - Bournemouth

We had our first sunday carvery here we had previously booked our table the waiter came and explained where everything was for starters you had a choice of Mushroom Soup or there was a selection of cold starters prawn cocktail pate bread /butter pork pie cold meats etc lots to choose from you then could have Beef Ham or Turkey which was served onto your plate with a Yorkshire pudding if you wanted one they where huge. there was roast potatoes Mash Potatoes Cauliflower Cheese Carrots sprouts these where hard , cabbage parsnips and gravy you could eat as much as you wanted good choice of puddings the atmosphere was very nice very relaxed you wasnt rushed and the service was excellent all in all a very good meal and good value for money

A wonderful time had by all, the meal and the staff were excellent with even a small present for the children. Good value for the money.

We spent two nights at this hotel and enjoyed breakfast both mornings. We were impressed with the food, as mentioned in my other review. Oh, and Hayley is fantastic!

We ordered a three-course meal for £15 at this restaurant. The starters were average, but the main course was badly cooked, poorly presented, and lacked quality. The bottle of Shiraz we ordered was low-quality and overpriced at £20. The creme brûlée dessert was terrible, as the chef had used white sugar instead of properly caramelizing it. Our waitress was lovely and tried her best to address our complaints, but unfortunately, she was unable to obtain an apology from the kitchen staff, who were agency workers. Overall, we were not impressed with our experience at all.

I went to this restaurant with my family in early December. The restaurant was quite noisy with many children running around and, unfortunately, touching and playing with the buffet food. The food was mediocre and not very hot. The staff were friendly but seemed overwhelmed. It is inexpensive, but I don't think I would visit again in a hurry.
