We went for a Sunday roast recently and I was quite taken aback by how basic and unloved it was inside. The landlady was friendly but the service from the wait staff was incredibly slow even though there were only a couple of tables occupied. My partner had the beef roast and I had the chicken. The portions are HUGE and they give you extra gravy without asking for it, which is a massive plus point. My chicken was pretty nice but the potatoes and veg were absolutely delicious. My partner said his beef was quite tough and he didn’t enjoy it. After we’d finished our meal we must have waited over twenty minutes to have the table cleared and no one asked if we wanted dessert. Another ten minutes passed before we could flag down a member of staff. Unfortunately, in the intervening period, I heard the chef make a really repellant slur about a member of the public who had committed the heinous crime of asking for a burger on a Sunday. Because of that, we didn’t order dessert and we won’t be coming back.
