Hmm, having visted Zante (sept last year, May this year) and i am going again in July, I'll say that i'll eat EVERY meal of my holiday in Mermaids.
Its by far the best place for value and quality on the entire island. Don't get me wrong, there are other good eateries but the staff were excellent and the food was never a let down.
Take that as you will, but i agree 110% with Chris C. Seems the other lad probably works for the local restaurant or just pure enjoys arguements for the sake of it.
The best thing to do is to try the place...if you don't like it, then eat elsewhere...but i don't think the restuarant always has custom for no reason!
food for thought?
See you in July.
from the Chesterfield lads.
So now its becoming childish. In my opinion (and in the opinion of everyone i have spoken to who has ever visted this place) it is superb.
Seems there are some jealous folks on here who can't handle it being the superior restuarant! And whats worse...everyone recognises it as this even if you want to think different in your fantasy worlds!
To compare it with MaHubbards is just being childish. Isn't MaHubbards only 'local' around Mansfield way? that might explain the 'sad Spireites' comment...for those who don't know MaHubbards is 'reet posh' for the locals and they wine and dine their local dog-wimin for £6 for 2 on a regular basis. No one from town bothers unless they are skint / bored or have never been before.
Mermaids isn't in a decaying suburb in North Nottinghamshire either!
So see you all in July, we'll will be frequenting Mermaids...as we recognise quality when we see it...this will be my 3rd visit in the last 9 months to zante so i know what i'm on about too!
Went to Mermaids EVERY night of the holiday (9th July - 23rd) and the food was excellent as always.
Chicken Chardonnay, Chicken Orleans being superb dishes. You can't really go wrong though, great service and superb value for the portions.
DO NOT MISS THIS PLACE!
