Title: Cosmo's
Post by: CusworthRovers on August 19, 2013, 12:08:25 pm
Anybody been yet?

We were going last week, until they told me the price for an adult. (the evening price is nearly double the lunch price)

10 and under eat free

Is it a better menu on a night time?

Is it better than Tay Barn?

Thanks

Was in there a few weeks ago, the scran is ace, weekdays before 3 or double price any other time.glass for fizzy drinks£2.50is a rip of as well.
More fizzy drink means less food. Go in and fill yer belly, well worth it.

I thought the food was very average, much like Taybarns being a jack of all trades place. The curries were all like you get in a cheap ready meal. Wasn't worth the price.

The desserts were magnificent though, great choice.

A million times better than Taybarns.

I'm incredibly fussy and don't eat much fruit or veg so with the exception of Pizza Hut me and the missus rarely go somewhere and we both manage to empty our plates, we've been about 5 times; the food is average and the drinks are of little choice but its well worth the price.

What angers me more than it should have is that you've called it Cosmo's when it's Cosmo and Taybarn when it's Taybarn's.

Call it what you like, Taybarns is the worst place I've ever eaten. It's like Kerry Katona's had a power cut and emptied out her chest freezer.

Taybarn's is just a generic canteen of any school or workplace. Cosmo is better quality but still poor. I think because they're all you can eat some people see it as a competition it's not you're there to enjoy food which isn't the highest quality. If in town much prefer Zest or Relish who have quite large portions anyway and much nicer.

The Mrs and I managed to fit a week's break for her kids and us between the Rochdale and Blackburn games. So, armed with a short time-scale and not a huge budget, we booked into Butlin's at Bognor Regis and paid for the Premium Dining Experience for an extra £420 (ish) for the four of us (not each obviously) we were hoping for maybe a sit down service with a few choices or some-such - nope, we got slightly better than Taybarn's, which was slightly disappointing!

I was prepared to wait for freshly done omelettes at Breakfast and either the fresh Pasta or Grill food (one of Tuscan Chicken, Homemade Burger or roasted vegetable kebabs) and they were very all very good choices - but if you were unaware of these or unprepared to wait, you got Taybarn's. So much for Premium Dining Experience!
