The Cardinals Hatt

Alkthough I have lived in Saltash many years I hadn't visited the Cardinals Hatt for a meal before. For a Christmas treat my sister in law and husband took us to this restaurant on Sunday the 8th December for a carvery lunch. Well what a...pleasant surprise, we don't usually like carverys but this was excellent, the best we have had. The restaurant was clean, welcoming, the staff pleasant and well turned out. We were promptly able to help ourselves to our meal, !st rule for me the plate has to be hot, tick. The meat was succulent, I had the gammon, our relatives had the choice of turkey beef or pork, all agreed was delicious. The roasties were hot and delicious as were the many other choices of veg. We were so filled up we asked if we could have coffee in the lounge, no problem, so we had a lovely relaxing coffee in comfort. We had no complaints and will be returning soon.

On arrival there was plenty of space in the car park. Disabled access is good with a slope and handrail which was very welcome. Staff were friendly and welcoming. We had booked the restaurant but it wasn’t very busy. There is a separate bar. Toilets...were clean and modern. Drinks were ordered and brought to us from the bar. The menu offers some nice choices and we chose Gammon steak, Scampi and chips, macaroni cheese with garlic bread and chilli cheese nachos. Food came quickly and service was friendly. We enjoyed our meals and decided to have pudding. There is a chilled glass cabinet with fresh pudding on display and there was a great choice. We selected banoffe pie, and apple pie which came with clotted cream. Everything was very good and the bill was £80.20 for five people which we thought reasonable.

The restaurant was fairly quiet, but it was during lunchtime. We ordered appetizers and dessert. The service was excellent and the food was very enjoyable.

Visited here last Sunday for a carvere. it was a **** ansum! huge selection of veg. hot and tasty. would be recommending

I attend a monthly nurses forum that I host. The food is always delicious, freshly prepared, and offers a wide variety that we choose in advance. The venue is beautiful, and the staff is fantastic.
