We were told by the only other customer in the restaurant after we ordered. The food was not great. Ordered garlic potato as our side and we got chips in garlic butter. The only good thing was the Guinness. It was our first and definitely our last time there.

The place was empty and should have sounded alarm bells! While the elderly gentleman was polite and friendly I wonder if our experience was down to him or a kitchen not reading the orders properly. There were 4 of us. The chicken curry was ok, the chicken stripes were nice although they arrived with veg when no veg were requested. The problems were the roast beef meals. Both were ordered without veg, and with mash potatoes. The order was read back 2 times. One of the beef meals was brought with champ!! My sister was nearly sick, as she took a bite without really looking at it, as we were talking and she had ordered mash. He said there was no plain mash!!! Who has champ with roast beef!! Any chips were finally brought as she had nearly finished her meal. Both roast beef were on the fatty side and neither of my family enjoyed theirs. Then comes the time to pay!! He could not work the card machine and we had to find the cash between us. It's as well we had it. As it's in the middle of nowhere. Needless to say we will not be back. Maybe evening meals are better but avoid lunches.
