Best KPortal Reviews

Had a large breakfast, and it was a large breakfast!! Very nice.
Friendly staff, good food, nice place.
Like lunching here and easy to traverse the area on my scooter. Good and varied menu with choice of free salad. Carvery option on certain days. Good ambiance and helpful staff. Lift up from ground floor. No disabled toilet sadly but could maybe be installed in the future???
Slightly dated decor feeling very 80s if you like vintage dining. But their food seems to be always nice and full of flavour - the menu must have changed in the 15 years I've been visiting but when you go to ferns you know what you'll have. Popular with retirees and above.
Popped in there for a hot lunchtime snack and was amazed at how far back the place goes and how many people were already in there. Food-wise n without being too disrespectful to the other diners already in there, it wasn't the healthiest menu and most of the eagerly microwaved dishes I saw like mine were swimming in oily melted cheese and petrified salad. But hey, you might like that. Might get a sandwich next time - they looked good.
Very convenient location in Exeter guildhall shopping centre. Spacious seating arrangement. We hav always been able to find empty table. Vast selection of homemade food. Not vastly expensive. Staff helpful and friendly.
This place is truly shocking. Everything was microwaved (and overdone), out of a tin or packet and utterly bland. Service was slow and faceless and we found hairs in one of our lasagne portions. At over £42 for four people this was a horribly overpriced and utterly execrable culinary experience!
Very dated, cakes did not look appetising. Staff very disinterested and looking scruffy. Food is all precooked cooled then reheated in a microwave why cant they cook to ordered would make more sense. Coffee flavourless and bitter and no chocolate sprinkles for the cappuccino. What has happened to ferns used to enjoy eaten here now no longer what a shame.
**AVOID AT ALL COSTS**
Food is very poor and very expensive! Jacket potato I wouldn't give to my dog. Service is also poor, waitresses clearly do not want to work there. Customer focus is not top of their list. This is a great shame as it looks very inviting from the outside, DONT BE FOOLED!!! Only giving 1 star because I have to otherwise it would be zero....
