The Round Of Gras in Wychavon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

What a joy to find that a friends “local” is something special. Thursday lunchtime and the place was packed with diners. I decided to have a Roast, and was not disappointed. The waitress was very busy, but she still found time to offer advice on the menu. With the main course finished I just had to have a dessert … a very delicate Apple Crumble. Perfect. After staying “a few hours” it became evident that we might as well eat again … and Asparagus-based dishes were enjoyed by all. I’m looking forward to my next visit

Had a lovely meal from the Christmas menu .. 10/10 … very tasty and nice and hot. Had the turkey then the Bakewell pudding with custard. Plenty of it … you won’t leave hungry ! Also highly recommend the steak and mushroom baguette (always have that for a lunchtime snack)

I've used this pub on and off for more than 50 years. It remains a local pub, very individual and, happily, not part of a chain. This time we came as a party of eighteen for a family Christmas gathering. To assist the kitchen, we had already pre-ordered our meals. The welcome was warm, and the tables were ready for us. All the meals (chosen from 4 different menus) arrived together, hot from the kitchen, in generous helpings and properly cooked (the battered cod, for instance, was spot-on). Desserts - in equally generous helpings - were delicious. Service was excellent from the young waiting staff, and clearly the kitchen must be well organised. We'd happily return, perhaps during the asparagus season to have some of their 'Gras' specials!

Lovely welcome, indoor dog-friendly table, press button ordering, very quick service, tasty food, very reasonable bill! The most efficiently-run pub lunch ever! A very pleasant experience. Thank you.

We travelled down from the North West and chose this based on its location as it is near where we were staying. What a lovely surprise! The staff were lovely and welcoming. Great choice of traditional British pub food and a board of specials to supplement the standard menu. We had gammon steak which was possibly the best I have ever had. Not salty, but thick and succulent with hardly any fat. Topped with two fried eggs and your choice of vegetables/chips. The desserts were wonderful! The lemon crunch and sticky toffee Sunday were fantastic. Great prices and would highly recommend for those who like good traditional pub food served piping hot by attentive friendly staff.

Friendly staff, food superb, overall a great place to have a real good pub meal. Have been several times, never a bad meal.

Great food and service. Very freasonable prices. It became very busy after noon, which shows how popular the place it.

Went here for a family meal on a Saturday at 4.30pm, 9 of us. Arrived just before booked time and shown to table, drinks ordered and menus left with us. No one came to take order. We had to ask and were told we should have used the bell on the table. I must say the bell on our table wasn't very obvious. When food came it was lovely. Had to ask again for table to be cleared and for dessert menu. Bell rang 4 times and no one came so abandoned dessert and spoke to lady behind bar to be told it was very busy and short staffed. When we arrived we were the only ones and others started to arrive around 5.30pm. It took 2 hours to be served a main meal! I felt we had been sat in a corner where no one could see us and forgotten about. Shame really that the service was so poor as the food was lovely. Won't be going back.

First visit for a long time on Saturday evening. Excellent meal. All 5 of us very pleased. Starters and main courses cooked well and excellent value for money. Will definitely not leave it so long next time. Well done. Glad there are still some genuine pubs doing good pub grub left.

Called in for lunch a coach was outside we thought it would be heaving but there were a few tables in the bar area. We ordered a meal each and were expecting a long wait due to the coach but wow the meals came very quickly were well cooked and hot especially the quiche which my wife thoroughly enjoyed and my sizzler was excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed the meal and the staff were friendly. We will be returning well done round of gras

We’ve never been before, but we will definitely return. An extremely tasty carvery, with generous portions. Helpful friendly staff all round and good value for money.

We first discovered the Round of Gras by accident about ten years ago. We return each year for their asparagus menu. We usually go twice during the asparagus season each trip entails a 100 mile round trip but worth every mile. The only year we missed was when Covid was at its height. So far we have only been once year, but hope to be back again before the season is over. Well what can you say about the food, good choice of asparagus dishes and this year the food was better than ever. It is always served piping hot, and it is so tasty. They supply little buzzers on the table that are used to call the staff to take you order and also so that you can pay at the table. The lady that served us this year, may be Polish, I am not good on detecting her accent, but what an asset to the Round of Gras, absolutely nothing was too much trouble including providing a container to take away what I could not eat. (Portions are very generous). This year you could also purchase Asparagus Scones, which we did, they came wrapped in cellophane and tied with a bow. We had these at home and they lovely and fresh and savoury also excellent. Hope to see you again soon, please keep up the excellent meals.

I went to see if I could arrange a takeaway funeral buffet. The friendly helpful staff arranged a chat with Graham the owner. What a lovely man! He discussed the options and the price was very reasonable. Most helpful of all he deliverd it at exactly the time he said. It was beautifully presented and looked and tasted delicious. Graham made a difficult time a little easier and I cannot thank him enough

We have just returned from our Easter break to Evesham, and was recommended by Caroline our Airbnb host to use this pub. We were not disappointed, we had dinner on both nights of our stay, all four of us had starters and mains. The meals came out very promptly, the meals were lovely and very well priced. Our waiting staff were Aggie and Sam and both were very professional but friendly at the same time, as was Graham the owner. We have booked again for Easter next year and will certainly be returningbto the Round of Gras.

Called in here while passing, it was 5pm and the car park was almost full, however they were able to accommodate us, apparently it was carvery night which is very popular. We had a mixed grill, and two orders of chicken and mushroom pie. Goodness me, the potions were huge, and each plate of pie came with a big jug of gravy. The pie was obviously home made, pastry a bit stodgy, so left most of it and ate the filling which was tasty . It came with a massive pile of chips. We both left most of the chips, too much. The mixed grill also was huge, and a portion of it ended up being taken home for the dog. Lovely food but portions way too big, I hate wasting food.

Excellent food for all 4 of us Especially for gluten and lactose free, enjoyed the gluten and lactose free curry with rice and the gluten free plum crumble with lactose free ice cream Will definitely return Waitress was lovely and the price was very reasonable...

We’ve had a few meals delivered now and they are always brilliant! Love the roast dinner - lots of fresh veg, huge Yorkshire puddings and very generous portions. Highly recommended!

Have used the Round of Gras on many occasions, always found a friendly welcome, with reasonably priced nice quality food.

Visited for lunch on a Saturday as a small family booking. Myself and my partner ordered burgers which were tasty but a little dry, perhaps some sauce or salad in the burger would have been nice, and unfortunately they didn’t come with a side salad...

Arms sticking to the table is never a good start to an evening meal. Served wrong meal. Batter on the chicken tasted of fish and greasy. Banana split was awful. How can you get it so wrong ? Over priced to

Great value for money. Lovely staff. More vegan options than most pubs, it was really nice to have the carvery as an option. Atmosphere was a bit lacking, would be nice to have some background music on.

Was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food here. The salmon was delicious and the sausages and mash came with lots of veg which isn't always the case. Friendly staff greeted us. Would recommend.

Have used the round o gras a few times during lockdown and highly recommend to anyone. Ordered carvery style Sunday lunch in January for a birthday and was delivered piping hot. Have now had the afternoon tea delivered for another birthday and cannot praise them...

First time I have used their Take Away service for hot food. Having heard good reports I thought we would give them a try. Ordered two hot roast lunches and desserts. Asked for lunch time and told 12.30 to 1.00pm slot. By 1.10:, no food...

This is an amazing pub a twist of modern and traditional The roast was absolutely epic piping hot tasty food Take the time to find it Great attention from all the staff Thanks

We had a carvery home delivery today 6/9/20 Food arrived piping hot & was lovely! 7 types of veggies, 3 meats, 3 types of potatoes, a big homemade Yorkshire pudding & homemade gravy, What an absolute treat, thank you ROG

Despite closing at 6:30, we booked a table for 5pm and was pleased with the food and service offered. The waitress made a great effort with my children and the food was plentiful and delicious. The pricing was very reasonable too.

We went here today not for the first time amazing carvery on every occasion, Nice staff always ask if your food is ok. Cannot fault this great place would recommend going for a carvery also do one Wednesday aswell which also tried & again superb

Was dissatisfied with the lunch. Very low quality and the staff were not very pleasant either. My second visit and definitely won't be going there again.

Very good Sunday carverycame here almost by chance, on our way home following a w/e test drive in a new possible A6, down in the leafy Cotswold's, we decided a nice spot of Carvery would be a good lunch option, a quick bit of Googling and a short detour off the Evesham Road, we found the Round of Gras, not exactly a "picture" to look at, outside or in, the quality, quantity and value of the Carvery was very good, highly recommended.Good staff make it a winner all ways round.ohhhhhhh and the A6.? put my order in for a Jag XE instead :-)

Just got back from a wonderful meal to celebrate my birthday (age un-disclosed). We booked in advance as Christmas is just as busy as their asparagus season. We opted for the two-course meal for £14.95, which included a lovely homemade Christmas dinner with a selection of veg, gravy, mini sausage in bacon and mini cauliflower cheese. Having eaten that, we had festive cheese and biscuits with a salad garnish for pudding. The restaurant was decorated in festive fayre with seasonal music in the background. Me and my sister had floater coffees to drink. The evening was very merry and a good time was had, we look forward to going again in the new year.

Visited early on a Saturday evening. Food good as usual - perfectly cooked steaks. This is good pub grub, reasonably priced, service can be slow at times, especially on Saturdays when the football team are in, but always friendly and helpful. Our children love the kids menu which includes a range of smaller versions of their adult meals. Also must mention their chips - proper home cut chips!!!

We caravan at honey bourne we always eat at the round of gras the food and service allways good great choice of menu

Atmosphere is like sitting in a cold fridge, however the food is better than good and feels like home. The staff do seem eager to serve you most of the time. Carvery time, meat is carved very thin but you do get lots of over dry roasts and burnt fingers from the utensils. But that's all the fun of paying and self service!

I live local and I go to the round of grass a fair bit , the staff are always really friendly and helpfully. The food is proper home cooked.i will continue to use the pub.

Went to the pub as saw it recommended in the CAMRA beer guide. There was a poor selection of beer and the lady behind was not very friendly. Stayed for one drink and quickly left. Won't go back to give money to people who are short and unfriendly despite trying to make conversation. We took the children and it was a shame we did not stay longer as they had a good beer garden with a slide and bouncy castle in.

We were unsure where to go and decided to try here on speck.We were welcomed with a smile by the young man behind the bar and politely told where we could and couldn’t sit. He presented us with two menus and said they would be over to take out order shortly. A tab was opened up at our requested for the drinks and meal.The drinks were well chilled, which was much appreciated, as it was one of those really hot summer evenings. We took our seats, which were comfortable to browse the very well-priced and varied menu. The staff member was prompt in taking our order and the food was served quickly and well presented. The choices made were good and we both enjoyed what we had saying how well cooked it was and how tender the meat was.My partner had a dessert, which again was well presented and tasty.It is our first dining experience here, but will not be our last.

We have been going to this pub on and off for 7 years for the great atmosphere and friendly staff. The food is why we go off and on. We go and it is good so we keep going then we have a meal like last night and we stay away for the next six months. Have been going the past two months during the Asparagus menu and I have had the same meal every time. Been good to great until last night ... it was appalling. A greasy mess I had to leave on my plate. My husband had a steak which was cooked as requested, which doesn't always happen, but we ordered a 10 oz steak and received an 8 oz. We have given up on complaining as it does no good, they are polite about it but nothing really changes not even the head chef. So we will look for a new local and maybe give it a try in another six months. Such a shame.

This visit to the Round of Gras was for a birthday meal. The food was cooked as requested (rare steak) and was very tasty, filling and good value for the money. One of our party had the fish cakes off of the specials board and had two of the largest fish cakes I've seen. As this was asparagus season it only seemed fitting to try the asparagus ice cream fir dessert. As quirky and, maybe to some, disgusting sounding, it actually works.Also a point to note they have a very well attended quiz night every fortnight (Thursdays) so if you do plan to eat book early.The only real criticism is they need to vary the real ales and sometimes not quite up to the quality of some of the other local pubs.Other than that not a bad country pub. Good value, good atmosphere.

Really enjoyed the Round of Gras when we went last week. A 'no frills' , traditional British pub which was specialising in one of the great British crops- Asparagus. Service was great, with a charming waitress who was very attentive and a switched-on barman. Starters of asparagus pancakes with cheddar were delicious as was the simple asparagus wrapped in smoked salmon. The mains were even better - the gammon and eggs was a hearty portion and very well cooked and the rare steak was absolutely perfect - one of the best I have had in a restaurant ever. Only downside was the new potatoes which were cooked to death! Otherwise, great stuff all round...

I love asparagus and this is a great place to eat it now it is in season. The pub is in the right location to get the best aspargus fresh from the growers. They of course serve other good food and we went on a Sunday and I enjoyed the carvery as my main course. I also enjoy real ale and there was a good choice of those. This pub does get busy and I would advise booking. The staff were very efficient and friendly.

Decor is pub. Service is excellent. (Table service; you don't order at the bar.)Expect a slight wait for your food because everything is cooked freshly and to order.The Round of Gras offers sandwiches, a specials board and a separate asparagus menu at this time of the year. I had asparagus with smoked bacon and parmesan which came with boiled new potatoes. It was huge! However, because there was so much of it, the cooking sauce became a little salty towards the end. Husband had the Bank Holiday carvery which was exactly what you would expect from a carvery. 3 soft drinks and two meals came to just less than £25.Food served all day. Beer garden. Child friendly. Various special evenings like Fish Friday etc Car park can get busy.

First time here and we were not disappointed. Lovely countryside location, friendly helpful staff and the food was great too. Highly recommend the choices from the asparagus menu, both veggie and meat options. Smaller portions were amazing value for money and the service was faultless. The decor was a little shabby and the chairs were a bit on the hard side, but apart from that, it was good.

A very busy pub and although in a village it is on a very busy road which is frequented by numerous large trucks. The pub itself is popular with families with small children it is warm and welcoming and the staff very friendly but some of the seats etc are in need of some tlc. We opted for asparagus starters I had the asparagus and bread butter and my partner had the soup which in itself was quite tasteless. We both had the carvery, fresh vegetables nicely cooked but the meat again was tasteless but tender . The price for the carvery was £7.95 so very reasonable but could only rate it as average, have had better Sunday carveries elsewhere

Popped in to the Round of Gras on sunday and what a busy little pub this is i had the local asparagus with salmon and new potatoes all my family enjoyed the meal we will be returning as asap friendly staff never been before well done ther ound of gras

I have lived in the area many years and the round of gras is a famous place to eat asparagus went last night and goodness knows what has happened to the asparagus meal was awful it was old and not good quality and as it is grown in the same village all I can think is they are buy inferior produce wake up Round of Gras for goodness sake or we will all go else where even the new potatoes were not cooked properly

We have just recently moved to Badsey and my local will be The Round of Gras.It was a real pleasant visit to this pub, and I was so pleased that it can be visited for just a drink or for a meal out.The staff were very friendly and helpful & polite, It has a real homely feel to this Pub, and the meals are excellent , with most important hot plates. I can recomend the Carvery which is very good value.The Round of Gras have got it right.....please dont change .We are looking forward to the next visit.Kind Regards P King

Very popular and excellent carvery mealGood value for money Suggest booking since it is popular most times

36 locals booked an evening meal value and quality of the food very good but the attitude of the 'manager'Graham was very arrogant and really left something to be desired in his manner and the way he spoke to me a paying customer.,.He certainly wasn't trained how to deal with people who after all are paying his wage.I can say that these ladies will be finding a different venue in the future where they are treated in a civil manner.The other staff were excellent and looked after us well.

Food is served all day (well till 8pm I think) good value and local produce - or it seems local Badsey Leeks and Asparagus in season. Staff obliging and attentive. Can get a litlle chilly in the depths of winder so take a scarf.

The service and food were excellent particularly the fish pie.the menu catered for everyone in our group from young to old.highly recommended.

This was an excellent Sunday carvery, particularly for the price, one of the best we have ever had - at any price! Pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff and a range of hand-pumped beers. You can't go wrong!

A menu stuffed full of traditional items, perfectly cooked to traditional standards. Carvery is my partners favourite, which arrives on time with all other meals. She loves it.

We usually go to The Round of Gras for birthday meals, but have been there for a night out. The pub is local to us, and within easy reach (about 5 miles). We eat in the resturant and have found the food to be reasonably priced. The staff are friendly and we get on with the landlord. Earlier this month we tried a carvery, which wasn't bad for £7.50 with a choice of meat and as much veg as you want. We have been during the asparagus season, and have tried various dishes from the asparagus-themed menu. We paid a visit last year and had a nice 2-course Christmas dinner. They have 'theme' nights such as Sizzler Night, Fishy Friday and Quiz Night (I don't know where Arthur gets his questions from) among others. The beer garden is nice in the summer, and we visit the budgies too (being a budgie lover & owner myself). The pub is ideal for a night out and reasonably priced considering what the chain pubs elsewhere would charge for a meal. It is advisable to book in advance as it does get busy from time to time.

A quirky pub just down the road from work. Good PUB grub. Nothing fancy, but your usual staple foods. Do a very good carvery. They attract bus loads of elderly (no idea where they come from) but they have a sizeable restaurant to cater for them.

We stopped for Saturday lunch while visiting friends. A lovely Pub with excellent service, friendly staff and outstanding food. The menu consisted of all the pub classics plus a mouth-watering specials menu. The children enjoyed playing outside in the garden too. Will definately continue to eat here when we visit Evesham. Highly Recommend.

I have passed the Round of Gras for many years, but today was the first time I had actually been in for a meal. I have to say the atmosphere was great, even at lunchtime. There were people having food from the carvery and it looked good. I had a meal off the specials board and I was delighted with it. I would recommend the steak in creamy pepper sauce. It was a sizzler. Also I did see that some of the customers were workmen, this does not mean it is a greasy spoon, because it certainly isnt. It indicated that the food was good and of excellent value. Tell you what I am going again and possibly soon.

This is by far my favored pub for dining when visiting Evesham. The staff are really good and quick to respond to new custom and have you seated with menus and drinks within moments. We went when the quiz was on, and although at first I raised an eyebrow, it ended in much fun. Top marks!

Visited the Round of Gras for a meal whilst staying in Evesham at the weekend. Pub not especially fantastic looking from the front; however definitely don't let this put you off. We had a fantastic two course meal from the Spring Asparagus menu and have to say this was excellent food. We had the asparagus in parma ham and the homemade asparagus soup with warm baguette and for mains we had the asparagus quiche and salmon and hollandaise with asaparagus, all of which we would gladly recommend. Main meals were very reasonably priced averaging from around £8 - £12 but they also do a mid week carvery for under £6 ! We weren't able to fit in a sweet but were very well looked after by the staff who were all friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

We were recommended to this pub restaurant and were not disappointed. Our meals were excellent, the pub had a good atmosphere, the staff efficient .... and Dame Judi Dench has been known to eat here too!

I went to the Round of Gras on the weekend for my Mum's Birthday. I had eaten there previous to this but never thought to review it until now. I had both a starter and a main and both were lovely. We all had a huge portion of food so this place is definitely good value for money especially when looking at the prices compared to other pubs. It isn't the kind of place where they place your food all pretty on your plate and this isn't my favourite place to eat but I would definitely return here again as there was nothing wrong with the way the food was cooked and I left very full up!! My steak was cooked how I asked for it, which a few restaurants/pubs struggle to get right in my opinion, so that was a bonus. Definitely a recommendation if you're looking for a casual and traditional pub meal with good food.

I live locally and we eat here about once a month (it's one of two family favourites). If your idea of a good meal is paying umpteen pounds for a tiny bit of over spiced sludge tastefully decorated with a few limp bits of rocket, you probably won't be too happy here. On the other hand, if you're like us and enjoy a hefty plateful of tasty, traditional British food, you'll love it. The carvery on Wednesday evenings is superb value, nicely cooked meat and a wide choice of vegetables, mostly fresh from their taste. The normal menu, too, is good value; I think between us we've tried everything and we've never been disappointed. Always a few interesting choices on the specials board, too. Staff are always friendly and helpful, the service is good, and the Pig's Ear goes down a treat. Hmmm, that's made me hungry....

they can not cope with a big party ok if they not bisey

Fabulous foodm and reasonable prices. Pub with loads of character.

Stopped by here for a family meal when we found other pubs in the area either fully booked or lacking atmosphere. We enjoyed the food which was above average for a large pub (and sometimes excellent; see the Mixed Grill), and the friendly service. Despite the terrible name, the pints of 'Pigs Ear' went down a treat. Not a pub for a special detour, but do worth a visit if you are in the area.

Had my 18 th and 21st at the grass now 49 and still going on a regular basis for very good food hospitality and friendship a real village pub with good atmosphere . The carvery is the best around all fresh veg every day try it you wond be disappointed . Going new years eve so see you there .

Have attended fairly regularly over the past few years, Graham & his wife run this place well and train their eager to please staff in an unusually refreshing manner, and it shows. A classical country village pub with food the centrepiece. They serve 'Weston's Old Rosie Cloudy Scrumpy Cider' and 'Duck', and I believe a whole selection of mouth-watering alternatives including Real Ales which I must try sometime, the alternatives certainly look good and my eating companions can vouch for their quality. Large on-site car park, safe garden for children and did I mention that they serve Duck?

I moved to Bretforton (the next village along) in July and have eaten at the Round of Gras 4 times. Each time I have had steak, Fillet twice, Ribeye and Sirloin. I have been with my partner twice and my family twice. We go in for drinks 3 - 4 times a week. I can honestly say that I/we have never had a bad meal here. Each time we have eaten here the food has been excellent (we eat out at different restaurants a lot!). I have worked as a chef myself and am extremely critical when I eat out and if a plate of food is not acceptable to me or I think they could improve on something, I do tell them. The staff at this pub are friendly, willing and most accommodating. We went in for a drink the night before we were due to have a family meal for my mum's birthday and I asked whether it would be at all possible to have 4 fillet steaks on that night. The next evening we had our fillet steaks (which aren't actually on the main menu and weren't on as a "special" for that night either!). I was so impressed that the chef did that for us. Each steak was cooked to perfection the way each of us like ours cooked and it just melted. We need to try the carvery next - it looks and smells lovely. I can't say enough good things about this pub - we class it as our local even though it actually isn't!

As always the carvery was excellent. We often come here on a Sunday and the meat is almost always delicious and so much of it. Gastropub it ain't but for well priced British roast it us great!

Don't know why the negative reviews on this site. We go there lots as we are local and have always had great food, friendly service and its good value.Its a pretty pub too. Loads and loads of flowers outside always well tended.

I am meeting friends here on 7th September and am already worried after reading the reviews. Our friends have picked the restaurant but they haven't been before. We only meet up once a year and so it's going to be terrible if the meal is bad. Will the chef read this I ask myself.

I booked a month and a half in advance for a family meal. I told them I was a vegetarian. I was assured by them that they have an extensive veggie menu and would have at least 3 choices. We arrived and I was given one choice, a peanut curry! Not ideal for people with a nut allergy so was told I could have smoked salmon and pasta. I explained that vegetarians don't eat fish. Then I was told that the chef would make a broccoli and potato bake with salad and garlic bread. Fine, I thought. Oh so wrong!!! I was given a dish of dry mashed potato, covered up with soggy broccoli then a bit of cheese melted on top. Salad indeed but the dressing was a dish of mustard mixed with oil. No one ever came to ask if our meal was ok and when the waitress came to clear half an hour later I told her how bad it was and that I refused to eat it. She didn't charge for my meal but at no point did the chef apologise or even come out to speak to us. I cannot describe how awful the food and service was but would implore you all to avoid this place as if your lives depended on it. Just disgraceful.

I agree with the previous reviewer - I am local, and was embarrassed when I took two Kiwis here to sample our local delicacy. The asparagus quiche contained the tough, woody stems and was inedible. It was served by disinterested staff who did not bother asking how the food was. Next time I'll stay in and cook it myself!

I eat at the Round of Gras on a regular basis and am always incredibly pleased with the standard of food they provide. The carvery is a great meal and very well priced and this is available thorughout the week at lunch and dinner times. Aside from the carvery, they have a good selection of home-cooked traditional British meals and a varied choice of specials.The pub is always busy and is very popular with locals and people from further afield. There is a large garden with play area and bbq area for warmer days and a lovely, warm, country atmosphere inside for when it is raining! The staff are always pleasant, well presented and keen to help.

The Claim by the PUB is “We Are the Only Pub in the World to Be Named After This Famous Delicacy” that’s ok but they haven’t got a clue how to cook or serve it – This was one of the most disappointed meals I have eaten, Starters Asparagus soup Yuk this was awful, tasteless, perhaps a bowl washing up liquid with a bit of msg would have tasted better than this bowl of soup, the other starter was Asparagus with smoked salmon – sounded delicious – far from it – the Asparagus was cold and wrapped in cheap smoked salmon the sort of awful bargain sort you get in supermarkets. The butter was solid and would never of melted if we had been there for a week – its seems the kitchen staff haven’t got a clue or imagination on how to serve this wonderful delicacy. The main course was just as bad - frozen veg and tasteless meat served from a carvery. I also ordered a steak it looked and tasted cheap. The steak was ordered medium rare, pity the chef didn’t have a clue how to cook it.So I wouldn’t rush to go to this place it’s dated in décor something out of the 70’s – serving tasteless food by unskilled staff.
