I'm looking forward to coming back again.
On entering the pub it looked like a nice old fashioned pub and seemed friendly.
The issue was with the food. We ordered 2 roat dinners with mixed meat and it came out cold and the Yorkshire pudding was burnt. The portion was also poor with only 2 small vegtable portions, 3 very small slices of meat and 4 small potatoes. 1 of the meals was requested with no veg as they didn't have peas, this wasn't an issue but no extra potatoes or meat were added to make up.
The table next to us also had Sunday lunch and it was steaming where it was so hot!
Being hungry, we just decided to eat the food. When the waitress asked if all was OK, I replied that the food was cold and Yorkshire burnt. Her reply was an apology, plus offer of a free pudding. We accepted the offer and requested 2 Sticky Toffee puddings one with custard and one with ice cream.
A few minutes later she returned and informed us that we now had to pay for one of the puddings! When I said no, she then asked if we still wanted one to share. Not sure if they planned to cut the free one in half and add a scoop of ice cream in one plate and custard in the other!
What an absolute joke!
We had the tortilla wraps, which were quite filling and well cooked.
Also ordered a cheeky cheesy chips, naughty!
