I’ve been for a few meals her over the past couple of years and found the food to be spot on every time. If you’d asked me yesterday morning I would have recommended it to anyone, but that was yesterday............
We took the small one to the wacky warehouse at J13 and when we were finished decided we’d like something more that a microwave meal for our tea, so we drove out to Penkridge expecting something great (as we’d always had before)
On a Sunday they now only do a Sunday set menu, and they’d sold out of the beef with the trimmings, we picked two different meals from the limited menu and ordered the little un home cooked fish fingers.
I’ve got to say it’s by far the worst thing I’ve ever had served up to me on a plate, nicoise salad with steak, missing all the vital ingredients that make it anything other than a ‘normal’ salad with the toughest lump of fat (with the odd spec of meat) thrown on the top. Hubby had a lamb thing that he said was so bad he could eat so ours were sent back. I’ll give them credit here as the dealt with it well and offered us another dish but it would have really been practical to make a two year old sit and wait for the length of time it would have taken to get new meals out.
The fish fingers seemed to go down well but they were very greasy, still had the skins on and were full of bones which to me shows that very little attention had gone into a meal that is to be served to small children.
Have they got a new ‘chef’ in? Or was it just an off day? Does anyone use this place much?
Where has all the good food gone round here?
