Surprised to find out on Sunday the Bistro at the Aqualibrium is no longer opened on a Sunday.

Read the notice a few weeks ago. I thought it would be pretty busy with the family sessions on!

Anyone know why?

That's pretty crap, there's less and less places to go to eat on Sundays or any day if not between 12 and 2.

I think the Mussel Ebb stops serving food at 2.30. Apart from cakes and teas and coffee's.

Does anyone else ever find it a tad disconcerting to be eating cakes while having someone pumping iron three feet away from you behind a pane of glass? They could have thought it out a bit better! :?

we recently had two family parties in the bistro (on the same day) one was a birthday party for my little girl who was 6 and an evening meal for my dad who was 60 the food and the service were fantastic, could not find fault with either. The view
from the outside area is amazing. :D

On a recent trip home my partner and I decided it would be nice to go for a swim then get our tea at aqaulibrium. When we got there we were told the cafe shuts at half 4. It seems odd for a cafe to close at tea time? Also, closing on a sunday? In today's world most places are open 7 days, it's good for business and customers. Does anyone else share this view? Surley all facilities in Aqaulibrium should be available 7 days for both locals and visitors to enjoy. :?:

I too found it surprising that they chose to close on Sunday, particularly just before the busiest season of the year.
I have always found the food and service very good, however the menu has really slimmed down. There is an old one behind the counter and you can see how extensive it was when it first opened. When my sister was here in June we went there a couple of times within a week, on both occasions they had run out of soup by 1pm, had no baked potatoes, and there was only one option of main meal available. In saying that I have been in before for an eveining event, the venue was fantastic and service and food wonderful. :D

I think its something to do with the staffing costs. Pretty sure that's what a colleague was told then they queried it being closed on a Sunday.
