I booked online and wanted 1.30 or 2.00m, but the earliest was 2.45pm. When we arrived the place was pretty empty. We could have just turned up. Our party consisted of 4 adults and one child who had just turned 3 years. We were at the Mole Inn to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. We ordered a white wine, 2 orange and lemonades, an apple juice, tonic water, with ice and lemon. No lemon provided and the party who arrived after us were served first even though we had a young child waiting. We ordered 2 belly pork roasts and 2 chicken roasts. Our child wouldn’t eat a full meal so we ordered him a Yorkshire pudding. (£4) All the Yorkshire were dry like cardboard and the potatoes were rather hard. Overall the meals lacked flavour. Some sage and onion stuffing may have given the chicken mole flavour. didn’t appear As we hadn’t been given enough gravy, we ordered more. Two quite small jugs arrived. (£2 each) even though they didn’t give us enough in the first place. I made a coffee and walnut birthday cake. It was on a cake board with candles and matches. They wanted £15 for what they call cakeage!!! This is to prepare the cake!!!! 🤨 We were all shocked and took the cake home. We ordered desserts. Mine was a ginger sponge with sauce. My son-in-law ordered a chocolate fondant and had the choice of crème anglaise and ice cream. I asked if I could have crème anglaise with my ginger pudding. I was told no, as they were all measured out, I then asked for cream, I was told No, the pudding comes only with ice cream and it goes very well with the sponge. 😏 The place lacked any kind of ambience. The bill was just under £177, that included a service charge that was around £17. We won’t be going back there. We think they’ve got carried away in thinking they are high end when really they are pretty big standard. ice cream.
