Food took two hours to come after being projected at 20 minutes. When it arrived it was stone cold and inedible. On complaining I was refunded only 20% of the order value. Very disappointing.
Previous visits were very nice. Today 18th November it was abysmal. Waitress really couldn’t be bothered, spent ages talking in a different language to one table at least 20 mns before asking us to order drinks. Bearing in mind only two tables in use, us being the 2nd table. Starters came with the cheese not even melted and the dip missing. By th time the mains came it was too hot in the restaurant to breath let alone eat. The mini ceaser salad was a baby gem cut in half with highly salted toast smothered in dressing. Inedible. Basically a disaster.
Just had two of Weatherspoons 8oz steak menu, it was wonderful cooked to perfection. Highly recommended together with a Merlot Wine. Go upstairs not so busy and great A/C keeping you nice and cool in today's temperature 32c.
Amazing experience and excellent food with extremely high customer service. Very welcoming people and friendly. Fresh bread was amazing and all the food was excellent, best food in the town and I do recommend to everyone to try at least once and they will be regular customer like me.
Came here Friday night around 8pm and it was really quiet.
We waited best part of 20mins to get served despite there only being three other covers in the restaurant and I had to go up and get their attention as the staff seemed busy socialising. Given how long we’d been waiting we had time to memorise the menu and ordered drinks and food at the same time.
To our great disappointment when ordering we were told they’d run out of mac n cheese, chorizo and also most importantly buffalo sauce so couldn’t do any buffalo wings or chicken “monkey fingers”. The buffalo wings were what we were most looking forward to. Thus a rethink to our order was required.
We both ordered a Dead Hippie Burger with bacon, some chilli cheese loaded fries and a slaw to share.
The burgers are good but nothing special… fairly flavoursome, however, I did think it was arguably salt heavy without the balance of flavours I’ve had with other burger joints. The bacon patties must have the best part of 2-3 grams of salt per patty. Only one gherkin in the burger seems a little stingy or could be lack of quality control. The lettuce was soggy where it’s placed at the bottom of the patties, maybe a meatliquor USP to put lettuce below the meat? If it is… Doesn’t work for me.
Loved the chilli cheese loaded fries. The Fries were still crispy and the flavours and mix of toppings worked a magical combination for the tastebuds.
The slaw was fresh. Could have packed a little more zing and bite but in the grand scheme of things was a solid side.
The Toffee Apple Hard Shake. One word. Epic! The Angelita Margarita was also decent.
Would I return to MeatLiquor? I would another branch as I’ve been Brighton before and had far better service and the whole menu was available. Would not bother wasting your time with this one if you want Buffalo wings and attentive service.

We had lunch here. Staff did not know what was on the menu. When we got what we ordered, the bread was stale, dry, and flavourless. We ordered the hunter chicken melt. The chips were disgusting, and it was served like a child's dinner. It's so sad, this pub was once a nice, clean, smart looking pub. Now it's a grubby dive!!! Won't be returning.
Took my 6 year old grandson for a 'grown up'Sunday lunch and it was perfect. The staff were fabulous and really welcoming. The food was plentiful and good for a buffet style. I will definitely return with a family group.
Not great at all, missed expectations. Lukewarm burgers, forget the bacon, you can't taste it, cheese and bun were nice, couldn't taste much BBQ sauce. Also, peppers, no, not jalapeno peppers, green peppers.... Why? Odd I think. My wife's burger was very pink in the middle so I am hoping it was freshly ground beef. Chips were stupidly large and served in a cup?? Chips were ok, nothing to sing about. Choice of sauces, Ketchup or Mayo..... And vinegar. Coke was a bad mix from their machine, should have complained but didn't. Staff felt very removed from the dining area, it's certainly not a restraunt, felt almost COVID like seperation. Shouting food numbers across the room was unclear, and there were only three customers. Hate to think what it would be like if it was noisy. £46 for £25 worth of food. NOT an American experience, they would laugh at this. Will not be returning
Nice staff. Cosy. But the music is always TOO LOUD these days in the mornings. Very distracting and annoying even if some of the music is good. A mood killer if the the music is in a minor key!
Would be much better if the music was background and ambient rather than foreground and intrusive !
However, head office have told staff that it has to be this loud regardless !
He estado yendo allí durante al menos 15 años. Relleno delicioso envuelto en pan plano libanés recién horneados. Un precio muy razonable, siempre hacen el esfuerzo para parar en cuando visite la casa! La hora de comer puede estar muy concurrido, pero la cola se mueve rápidamente, puede comer en el restaurante o para llevar.
He estado aquí unas cuantas veces a lo largo de los años y he visto muchos re-marcas y cambios de titularidad. Tengo que decir que ahora es probablemente la mejor que ha sido durante algún tiempo pero tiende a atraer una más exigente particularmente corporativa, especialmente después del trabajo. Me he pasado aquí más tarde por la noche y se ha visto bastante lleno, así que no puedo opinar sobre la escena más tarde por la noche de primera mano pero como con cadena run bares, es una elección generalmente consistente y segura.
Have been a regular customer of Croydon central for a while, tonight the driver was amazing as always extremely polite. I always tip well as it’s not the most appreciated of job. However I did have to call the branch twice and the attitude of the guy was awful, I explained that the food will arrive cold as it’s been out a while and I do understand they deliver to more than one house. His attitude was not the best and basically I had to call back when delivered and guess what I did. He would not listen and when I said it was not hot, he replied it was not cold and would give a refund. Even though this sounds great the attitude was not good. The refund is not what i wanted, all I wanted was an actually sincere apology and would look into on how they could improve the service. Found the guy very abrupt and does not care about customer service and the customers that keep him in a job. The drivers need a medal as to me they are superb.
