Starters and mains were excellent , service was great up until then. They were very attentive and as soon as it got busy, they were resetting tables and looking after the new tables coming in so it felt like we were forgotten about, we had to go to the bar to order our coffees as nobody had been over for a while. This isn’t a criticism , it was a great meal and we’d definitely be back, it’s more of an observation that other guests might be upset about, we were happy to just be out and appreciate the staff giving up their Xmas day to look after us. It was busy and we had a great time so thank you for looking after us

Family and friends Christmas meal. Haven’t been to the Havelock for years, so it was a pleasant surprise to find it neat, tidy, smart and welcoming. Food good value, portion size was just right. Drinks choice extensive, so everyone was adequately catered for. Next time, I’ll invite my dog!
