Unfortunately service let us down. It was 45 minutes after we were seated before meal orders were taken (we had been offered drinks prior). Table was cleared but no offer any further drinks, dessert or coffee came until much later and definitely seemed to be an afterthought as staff were clearly packing up the restaurant. I have been here before and had good service so I hope the not great service tonight is an exception.

We received prompt service when we first arrived and were shown to our table. When we received our meals around 30 minutes later the meals we nice and hot and there was plenty of it. A waiver asked us how our meals were about half way through. Overall an excellent experience and will be back again soon.

Unfortunately the steak didn't come with vegetables, just potatoes and was a bit overcooked. Expected a full plate of vegetables or salad with this meal. Staff were very efficient and helpful but it was busy and the noise level was very high.

Our booked table was given away to someone else, we were a bit late (20mins) because the movie went longer than expected, we did not receive a phone call to confirm whether we were coming or not. The pizzas were expensive for what they were. Very noisy and difficult to have a conversation.

I have always been happy with the service, menu and food at The Groove Train , Waurn Ponds and our last visit was no exception. For some reason they hadn`t received the electronic booking through Quandoo but still managed to find us a table and get us seated quickly after I showed them the confirmation email. There was no fuss, just an apology and then a great meal. Happy to recommend and thanks again.

Our experience was pleasant. There were way too many wedges in the starter for one person,but they were delicious and my husband enjoyed his pizza unfortunately he asked what size the pizzas were and the waitress answered 8 slices instead of indicating bread and butter plate size or dinner plate size. Otherwise the service was good but the metal chairs are very uncomfortable and I ended up sharing the very comfortable bench with my husband.
