it was our girly yearly get together christmas dinner. and this year, it was my choice. and i wished i hadn't. a bad mistake, sorry to my girlfriends for the disappointment.
arrived around 5.45pm for the christmas season, only 1 or 2 tables sitting and was pretty empty still. we ordered drinks. then ordered our starters and mains.
our drinks. ...took a long time...finally arrived and was almost 15 mins for 2 cocktails and 2 juices. waited till our cocktails were dried out and our starters arrived. starters were very nice, my smoked salmon lovely. the mussels were nice too.
ordered another round of drinks. another 15 mins wait. mains arrive with our side order of chips. side order was £2.50 i think it was, and was literally 5 chips. chunky 5 chips.
sigh, we sat for almost 3 hours..5.30pm till 8.30pm and not because we ordered that much food..just the service was terrible.
you know, i raved about this place, the exterior, the warmth inviting moment when entering in..and so thefoodwas good. not great. but the service was bad, just took so long for a dish to come. we wouldn't have sat there for 3 hours but it took that long for courses to come we didn't have a choice.
so with the amount of goodfoodrestaurants out there, i'd go elsewhere unless you happen to be hungry walking down that particular road whilst its still opened.
