Recently tried their Titanic Stout and very much enjoyed it. Possibly prefered it to Guiness.

In for a quick couple and a bite to eat last night. Service and beer as usual spot on. Disappointed with the food though, originally going to have the fish & chips which looks great but as we weren't hugeley hungry (the portions are substantial) we went instead for the sharing platter with chips on the side. Chips were good, the rest not so. Four frozen onion rings, four small breaded mushrooms, one battered (or breaded, it was hard to tell) chicken fillet sliced into six pieces, a handfull of potato wedges and two spring rolls. The spring rolls were quite nice but the rest was typical Iceland / Farm Foods rubbish and had the look of something previously cooked and reheated, the salad garnish had also seen better days.
If they're doing 'freshly battered' cod I am guessing a large batch of batter would be on hand surely it would not be too hard to do proper onion rings not those frozen onion flavoured 'mush' rings.
Will try here again as the fish & chips does look very appetising but would advise keeping away from the 'Iceland' platter as we re-named it.

Agreed. I had the platter first time in and was really dissappointed.

"Thanks,
We can’t go forward unless we know what we need to improve. My plan was to have the cold platter available till last orders, then the chef added the hot one and it became a bit complicated. I haven’t tried it but I will and he already has your comments in his inbox. Cold platter not currently available after food service as the pub is too busy at 10pm to make them up and serve them. Slightly funny story, the first week a member of staff had an order for one, got to the kitchen, made it up and delivered it, minus the pork pie which had been nicked as he made his way to the customer!
Glad we are getting most of it right.

Glad I've not put you off, as I said we will try the food there again. I never let one bad experience put me off somewhere.
The rest of 'The Sun Experience' is great, the beer's always good and the staff are so switched on and always seem to be happy and enjoying their work, great atmosphere.

Its a pub - always should have stayed a pub - owned by a brewery - not a pair of brother chefs - even the sludge pies from Pauline were questionable in the eighties - catering is a not an industry that attracts many creative people outside of London - perhaps they should be doing a deal with one of the neighbouring cafe style places...Trumpet said:
