Addie Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 I've just had an email from them mentioning that it was 'All New'. The decor appears to have changed from old fashioned to modern. Has anyone been recently and how were the changes? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mission Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Their Facebook page is here If they've kept the staff, the food / service should be just as good I would imagine. It did need a bit of a freshen up in fairness, the seats were very uncomfortable if you were in there for any length of time (and let's face it, you usually are if you're out for a meal). Not too sure what the older clientele will make of it but it wouldn't put me off going there the next time it takes my fancy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcousticallyChallenged Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 It looks a lot nicer in there, I've heard the menus have changed somewhat as well, but I'd imagine the food will still be top-notch stuff. I'll have to go again to investigate... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addie Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Thanks for the link. We'll give it a try. Not a fan of the odd chairs though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passthemike Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 definitely a vast improvement on the previous interior. You should sign up to their guest list as they have been running a "BOGOF" the last two weekends. Menu has been updated. The competition from the two relatively new eateries in town and the helpful barrier on the car park must be taking their toll. Staff are same.

Mission Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I really don't get the issue with the barrier tbh. Are the charges so horrendous if you are parked up for more than 2 hours? Personally, If I was going there and had to drive, I'd drop whoever I was with at the door and then park up in Market Place (or failing that, Parliament Street/Peel Street or the car park at the rear of St. Paul's Square) and walk the 30 - 90 seconds distance to the Harbour Light, it really wouldn't stop me eating there, that's for sure.

Addie Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 I don't know why everyone seemed to abandon parking in St Paul Square once the barriers came up. It went from full to almost empty at a stroke. It seemed to prove that it was being used for all day parking and not for the advantage of the businesses there. Ramsey has to be the easiest place to park, for free, on the island. Long may it stay that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminal Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 walk the 30 - 90 seconds distance to the Harbour Light, Seconds are units of time, not distance. Not in Ramsey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminal Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Yeah, its light years behind Douglas. That should give Ramsey plenty of time to make changes to avoid becoming the shithole that Douglas has then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addie Posted April 16, 2015 Author Share Posted April 16, 2015 Went here recently and it was pretty disappointing. Mr A had the roast lunch. which I avoided it due to a previous encounter with the unrecognisable 'cut' of roast and dried out (Aunt Bessies/Iceland?) roasties offered. The promised choice of hubby's roast Sirloin was obviously not Sirloin as we knew it. I really don't like poor meat, dead roasties and undercooked veg. I cook every evening, so how hard can it be? s the Sefton going to be serving this standard of 50/60s standard of British cooking? We won't be back. We've given them a few tries now and that's the last money that we're willing to waste on unsatisfactory food. The revamp didn't include matching chairs or tables by the way. Sad really.
