    When a restaurant is nearly empty at lunchtime it's a very bad sign. When they've run out of basic items before lunch that says they weren't expecting any/many people to turn up, and they're trying to save money on inventory. You can bet they're understaffed too.

    • @anthonycrumb5753
      @anthonycrumb5753 Місяць тому

      Totally agree with you, there is absolutely nothing intrinsically wrong with British food, it's the way it's it prepared and cooked quality issues aside.
      British people will accept and eat crap so consequently they get served crap. If a lot of resturants served up the same quality stuff in France or Spain they would be out of buisness in a week.

  • @rickb3645

    They're extracting the urine Lee... Can you imagine if you have certain dietary requirements for either allergies or for religious reasons... And you're expecting a Chicken & Mushroom Pie... And this place is serving you a Steak & Kidney Pie... The time taken to prepare and serve the food was completely unacceptable... And when it finally arrived... The order was wrong... And it was stone cold... Just because they wasted your time guys... They should've at least given you the drinks you both had for free... I used to work in a pub... So i know exactly what it costs them for a mixer box of Pepsi Syrup... And what they charge their customers for a glass of Pepsi... It has an incredible mark-up profit margin... So it would literally have cost them next to nothing to comp your drinks Lee... This place is dirty and quite disgusting... And we all now know why they have such depleted food stocks here too Lee... And also why it's so empty in there at lunchtime... That should tell you all you need to know my friend... But at least you got yourself a refund for both meals pal... Cheers Lee. 🍺

    Interesting, I've been to this place once when it was a Wetherspoons two or three years ago and it was what you'd expect from a Spoons. I didn't know it had changed hands and I wouldn't bother going again now. I have also been once to the Widow Frost in Mansfield since it ceased being a Spoons and it was nothing to shout about so won't be going there again either. I've never heard of the No.1 Pub Co, but neither of these pubs are good adverts for it. Avoid I'd say and I'm glad you asked for a refund.

    Terrible shame. Probably good when it was wetherspoons. As for sticky tables, that's quite common in many places. Sure it's because they just spray a cleaner over the table, but do not wipe it down thoroughly. Just a quick wipe. Two in a row with sticky tables.
