Caprice Restaurant

We booked a table of 7 at 6.30pm this weekend. We were sat upstairs where there was 2 children's parties ? The noise was just awful, we couldn't hear a thing at our table due to screaming kids (not blaming the kids / it was their party but not acceptable to sit 7 adults next to it) I asked at 7pm when the party would wind down and was told 'hopefully soon" it finally wound down at 7.30pm?? We spent best part of an hour trying to hear each other with not much luck ? The place was like a bomb site /food on floor /burst balloons/cake mashed into the floor! It was chaos. I wouldn't have been surprised if Mini Mouse had arrived with face paints for the Kids ?? !!! The service thereafter was worse. The food was well below average. Waited 20 mins for water on the table despite asking 3 times, no cutlery replaced after the starter therefore main meal served with nothing to eat it with and was nearly cold by the time we did get cutlery. Calamari was served as chunks of deep fried squid in breadcrumbs? Just awful and clearly not fresh and from the frozen bag ?? My sister-in-Law is gluten intolerant therefore ordered from Gluten Free menu. Overnight she became unwell due to eating something with Gluten in it from the Gluten Free menu ?? 24 hours later she is still unwell. ? Still a bit shocked how bad the experience and food was.

Gluten free pasta option (penne), most sauces GF. No GF pizza (would be difficult with the wood fired oven), soup and a few starters available. Very small, seating available upstairs. Toilet is also upstairs. Not wheelchair accessible due to size/stairs. Overall, good experience, not too expensive, food is tasty, staff friendly. Booking pretty much essential, especially for larger parties.
