Springfield Hotel

I've recently visited the Springfield for a work's Christmas lunch and it was ok, nothing outstanding but not terrible either.  The food appeared to mainly frozen (although it had been reheated ;-)) but it was acceptable and portions were reasonable.  There wasn't a massive choice, the main was either turkey, beef or leek and potato bake, but this simplification probably helped as the service was very efficient.  Thirty plus people were served three courses in about an hour without anyone being made to feel to rushed.  I think everyone left happy, but then again we weren't paying!

This hotel has a so-so reputation. There’s a nightclub annex which opens at the weekend and there are reports of trouble there, but I’ve stayed in the hotel for a week and seen no trouble at all.
The bar food is surprisingly good; i can particularly recommend the lasagne and the goats cheese tart. There’s a pool table and some comfy seat, some TVs and music is played at a nice, background, level.
The location is a little odd. On one side you have the incessant drone of the very busy, ghost highway that is the A55, ploughing its way west through communities with a searing red tail, and on the other side you have bountiful country fields and fauna.
Overall, a decent place to stay if you’re working locally, but i can’t imagine going there on hols!
