Overpriced and not very good portions
Have been in this week for lunch and decided on a ploughmans as it was a pleasant day. Ham, cheese and scotch egg plus salad which sounded OK for £13.95.
Got 1 thin slice of salty ham which did not look off the bone, 2 very small pieces of the same cheese which had little taste, a luke warm scotch egg, chutney and some lettuce leaves plus bread and butter.
I would have expected more food for the price and certainly a choice of scotch egg hot or cold but not asked. It was very salty and being honest as it was warm was bordering on insipid. Maybe the rabbits ate the rest of the salad as it certainly was lacking on the plate. Make it look pretty by all means but at least put a decent amount on the plate.
Whilst a pleasant day and made welcome, the value for money against food portion needs to be looked at. Staff were friendly and the place very clean.
Times are hard for us all however this meal is well overpriced for what is actually provided so need to reduce the price or add more to reflect the portion. I would ditch the scotch egg, have a normal boiled eggs, more salad, 2 different cheeses and some coleslaw. Just being honest. No ideas of drinks as I didn't have one.
Update 17 July 2024
Companies like constructive criticism and often reply. Shame this place didn't want to so perhaps have hit a nerve with a truthful comment. Not a problem as wont be going back and bad service certainly travels quickly. Dropped it by 1 star as no response from shop.
Update 31 July 2024
Still no response so clearly one to avoid. Wanted to drop to zero stars but Trustpilot will not allow it. Absolute rubbish overpriced food and total lack of communications.
