The Nags Head in Aylesbury Vale

The food here is really nice, big portions and a lot of vegan options on the menu. The chef or owner came to talk to us about the vegan menu and how they can improve it since it is pretty new. So that was a nice personal touch. Although our service was pretty poor. We came for Sunday lunch and rang ahead to check if the vegan menu was still available on Sundays and it was. But when we arrived we were told that only the “main items” were available and the rest of the meal was not available and would be replaced with the roast potatoes & veg from the Sunday lunch menu. i.e. the burger and chips would not come with chips and would have roast potatoes & veg instead. It’s not what we were told when we phoned ahead which is annoying. It got a bit tense with our server who said “it’s still the same main dishes on the menu so it’s basically the same.” We replied “well it’s not really the same when you substitute half the meal for something else” to which she bluntly replied “well it is the same”. After all that when our food came, half the meals came with roast potatoes & veg and half came with the specified sides from the menu. One of us ordered the vegan Fish and Chips and someone else had the Winter One Pan which came exactly as described, not a roast potato in sight! In fact the winter one pan came with mash and peas. But someone else ordered the lasagne which did come with roast potatoes & veg instead of the garlic bread & salad listed on the menu. So not very happy about that, definitely seems to be a mix up between the kitchen and the servers, and the attitude from the server made it feel like an unwelcome atmosphere and that we were an inconvenience. My advice is don’t go on a Sunday, i’m sure if we went during the week (and had a different server) we could have avoided all of that and had a much better meal.

10/10 service on a busy Mother’s Day impressive
