I called at the Mayflower on Monday 10th September 2018(never been before, but have driven past a great many times ), and ordered a few vegetarian dishes. I immediately offered to pay, took my card out of my pocket, only to be informed that they did not accept card payments, only cash. I was told to go to a cashpoint which was inside a neighbouring shop, however, this was "Out of order", so I returned to the Mayflower, explained the situation, and then was redirected to another cashpoint which was on a parade of shops further down the road...all most inconvenient.
I returned within a matter of 3-4 minutes if that, and was more than surprised to see that my order was ready....it did not seem possible that the food could have been cooked so swiftly, let alone packed and bagged....
Upon returning home, we served the food and everyone agreed that the standard was extremely poor...The Vegetable Chow Mein was dreadful, hardly any noodles, and mainly consisted of those pre-prepared undercooked carrots and bamboo shoots,we counted three tiny pieces of green pepper, and that was as good as it good,no baby corn or Broccoli etc etc...we were highly disappointed to say the very least, The remainder of the food left much to be desired, the portion sizes were smaller than we are accustomed to, and overall, it was far too expensive for what we received...needless to say that I shall never return to the Mayflower. read more
