"My wife loved her sandwich, although she mentioned that it would have been easier to eat with a plate and cutlery due to the generous amount of filling - half of which ended up in the bag after she finished the sandwich. She suggested that a smaller size option would be a good idea, as the portion was quite large and could easily serve two people without skimping. The "pig in duvet," on the other hand, was a more modest size but packed with delicious flavors. It set a new standard for sausage rolls with its smoked bacon, tasty sausage meat, perfect spice level, and flaky yet stable pastry. The only improvement would be serving it warm. I was not a fan of the brownies, possibly because they were gluten-free. This was a bit disappointing after the amazing sausage roll. However, I will definitely be returning to try their coffee and stick to the savory options, as they were a hit."

"Harrogate. What can I say. People here will put up with the average and pay a lot for it too. Well, you don't have to now. Nothing mind-blowing happening here but the pizza is adequate and the price is better than anywhere else so why bother buying a big pile from Bambino's whilst fighting off the drinks when you can have a relatively civilised conversation and a pizza that doesn't taste like shoe. Well done."

"My Husband ordered a farmhouse breakfast but the sausages were not cooked properly, the waitress came and took the sausages ,replaced and was apologetic which we appreciated but still added service charge to bill which we thought was really poor ,especially as we had bad experience with the food. We paid the service charge but will not be returning."

"We had heard good reviews and so were looking forward to dining at Konak but unfortunately my expectations were not met. We arrived to find that there were dining rooms at Konak but there was only one open and felt very like we were dining in our front room, tables were cramped together and we were asked to give the server our coats as so we would not take too much room, decor was like an old fashioned tea room with doilies on the table and when the plates, salt and pepper and candle were on the table there was room for nothing else, and tables were so close together we could easily listen to the next tables conversation. I felt so uncomfortable I really could have and prefer that we had left and went else where without even giving it a try but as we wanted to give it a try we stayed all be it uncomfortable. I chose the Turkish sausages which when they arrived looked like it was one large sausage pre made and sliced into not traditional sausages that I thought it would have been it was not very hot nor tasty nor spicy and for main ordered the lamb meatballs. Because this dish was made and cooked to order there was at leAst a minute wait following the starter and was so hot that it had just came out of the oven that as the table was so small was fairly dangerous to sit with in front of me all I wanted to do was get it eaten and get out. Unfortunately it was not an option to eat fast and get out as it was so hot and so we ended up arguing over the dishes, left most of the main and paid and left. In hind sight I should have gone with first impressions and left the restaurant when they seated me on another couples knees at the start ! I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an up to date modern style Turkish meal but perhaps for someone looking for an at homely feel very traditional Turkish meal."
