It was my birthday and It was nice to have a card signed by the staff and birthday plate, was also sweet as staff were taking care of us well once we were sat.
However, we ordered a t bone steak to share and it was thoroughly disappointing. In all aspects apart from size. The meat portion was massive but the steak came out pretty lukewarm and dried up very quickly thereafter. Both the chips and salad that accompany the steak were smothered in parmigiana again they were nice but everything tasted like parmigiana.
The sauce that came was stone cold which didn’t help as the steak was cold anyway. The staff are lovely but because the restaurant is so intimate it feels like a massive fuss to complain so we just carried on.
It was fine but considering it’s supposed to be the best pub in the UK I have had better dinners at similar places. Will go back especially as not much choice in area but defo not for the steak- Sunday lunch there has been good before.
We came and ordered starters, mains and dessert. The food was honestly, still very very good and excellent quality. The service however, left much to be desired.
Firstly - the table we sat at was wet and dirty, my mum had to ask to clean it. Secondly, the wait for food was a good 20 mins for the starter, then a further 40-50 mins for the mains. In that time, not one person came to check on our table! They were definitely not short staffed either. Watching as the waiters darted around we had to ask, each time to be served… whether that was to order our food, order a drink or anything.
The staff quite honestly just seemed really young and inexperienced… there’s a way to make your customers feel. And honestly, after this visit we fear this might be our last!
It was also my mums birthday, and although we put it in the notes to book… we didn’t get any acknowledgment, whatsoever… which again, was not an expectation as it had been done previously.
Having had previously, incredible experiences - I’m honestly gutted to be writing this. Also, the manager was so busy chatting to the other staff that I didn’t even get a chance to talk and explain our experience.
Again, incredible food… horrible and uncomfortable experience with the service.
