High quality - top restaurant quality food with a fashionable style restaurant. The dishes are varied and excellent and the home made cakes are to die for!!! They are often fully booked as doing so well.

Really good coffee and home made cakes. Great atmosphere too. The cooked meals also look very nice, although we haven't had a chance to try them yet. Probably need to book a table at busy times.

This was our first visit with two children. Glad we booked as all tables full. Did not know what to expect but we where not disappointed and the menu offered some unexpected choices what we choose was delicious. Large portions so no room for desserts. We shall come back for that!!

Very nicely presented cafe/restaurant. Food good from what I can see with a good selection of teas and coffee. Cake portions are immense (one piece between two was ample!). Not the cheapest but then again, you get what you pay for. Will be visiting again.

I love this place. My children have several food intolerances. One to wheat, the other to corn, dairy and almonds. We always find what to eat (everithing clearly marked on the menu), there is a good choice and brcause the food is made fresh by the chef, things like pasta can be adapted to have no cheese, etc. The place is very clean and the staff friendly.
I would love to see new gf cakes om the menu from time to time (I love all the ones you have)

Comfy contemporary location. Locally sourced freshly cooked food and pleasant service. Ideal stop off not far off the M1 j18 while heading to the south coast. Will visit again.

A deeply depressing place which should never have seen the light of day without a proper master plan. They have also spelt it wrong. If you want to see how to do new towns properly, please see Houten, Netherlands. This is going to be more like Houston, Texas - nasty car dependent sprawl.

Relaxing contemporary cafe serving quality food and beverages. Friendly staff who are efficient. Prices a little high but would recommend

Review edited from 1 star to 4....Upon reading my review Elaine the owner contacted me. She was extremely apologetic and we discussed a few of my experiences at her restaurant. She was very upset to hear of what had happened to me, and to hear the reasons I reviewed the tuning fork as noted below. We were invited back for breakfast and it was a really enjoyable experience. Food was delicious as always and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Hopefully this continues and we can always enjoy our visits at the Tuning Fork.
(Original review) I have visited numerous times throughout the summer, at least twice a week and sadly received poor service more than once. Today was the last straw for me...or should I say hair!! Everytime I have visited I have had my three kids with me, today I just had my sleeping baby. So I sat down to enjoy peace and quiet, coffee and some breakfast. Two bites in I find a hair which was underneath the bacon. I quietly spoke to waitress she took the plate , apologised and said she would make another one. That should have been it but sadly your staffs inability to accept fault or display a polite level of customer care fails you once again. The lady supervising came over and abruptly asks do I want them to make the food again or take it off the bill because no staff in the kitchen have long hair. (this was a lie because when I later got up to pay there was a lady in chefs clothes fixing her uncovered hair in the kitchen!!!) I felt so uncomfortable at that point I just asked her to remove the food from the bill and i would leave after my coffee. She came back a second time and asked did I want anything else, I told her how she had handled the issue had ruined my experience and what was to be a peaceful coffee! I quickly drank my coffee and went to pay!! As I said at the start of this review we have visited at least once a week for coffee and cake, I have brought visitors here and met friends here. There have been times when I have left feeling unwelcome, in the way or rushed and yet I kept coming back. There was even one time on the way back from the playground having had a coffee before the playground when I asked could my 2 year old use the toilet and despite being there earlier the staff reluctantly said I could "sneak in" . I am so so disappointed with the way I was treated today and would not recommend this place!!

It's clean, and the staff are fine, but it's desperately pretentious and overpriced. It really needs some competition...

My friend and I went for lunch here for the first time last week. The atmosphere was relaxed and the staff friendly. Service was good and the food excellent. The drinks are a little expensive (£3 for a pot of tea for one! )
however, I would definitely go again.

Posh grub served at expensive prices, service could be better, staff were arguing amost themselves in front of us, nice food but overpriced and service below par. I wanted a breakfast of some sort, the only option was a "full english" at twelve quid.... If you want regular nice food, not recommended

Just been for Sunday lunch, really good!! High quality, as much veg and cauliflower cheese as I could handle. I'm veggie but the meat eaters really praised the roast.

My husband & I visited this place today. To be told they only serve dinners on the menu, no sandwiches, jackets or cakes for light lunch. Young girl not very friendly. Don't think we will bother again.

Just had coffee, but it took an age to come because of inflaxible staffing. When there is a queue of tickets for drinks then another staff member should take them to the tables, until the queue is reduced.
The coffee was good though, and the food looked very appealing - I slightly regretted having breakfast at home !

Great style and huge slabs of cake (maybe a little too large if there's such a thing as too much cake?!). Nice coffee too. Will be back to try more of the menu.

I love it here! A great ambience, home cooked and well presented (international) food. Today, there were the good basic option plus Portuguese, Thai and Mexican dishes. To top it off a really good Australian Sauvingnon blanc. Excellent
