点评:Booked for Sunday lunch specifically for carvery as had seen so many good reviews. On arrival no one greats you. It’s a case of having to queue for 10 minutes at the bar to be told your table isn’t ready yet but would you like drink in meantime. There’s no where to sit you have to stand there dripping wet from rain whilst others pile in the same with nowhere to go. When we got shown to our table, navigating the crowds we were stuck in a corner in a very noisy conservatory which was packed as it could possibly be. It wouldn’t have been possible to get another table in there! We constantly had people going past our table shifting chairs and high chairs, we felt like we were in the middle of the M4 not out for a nice lunch on our wedding anniversary!
Onto the meal itself. Someone came to take our order. When we said we were having the carvery it was just “oh help yourself then” rather abruptly no thanks or anything. The carvery itself was ok but for the price I had expected better given I’ve had two courses and similar quality (and better)elsewhere for same cost. No one ever offered drinks throughout meal or asked if everything was ok, in fact apart from being seated and the “oh help yourself comment” the only other communication was “would you like the dessert menu?” We refused it as we’d had enough of the noise level and traffic going past the table. As we left I noticed gravy on the floor and pointed it out to two members of staff being concerned someone may slip. However they again didn’t thank me just said “oh it needs cleaning up”. Well I knew that!
So unfortunately we won’t be back as don’t like being packed in like cattle and roasted (it was really hot in there) and prefer our is left for the meat on our plates.

开始点餐吧。有人过来给我们点单。我们说要烤肉,他们只是粗鲁地回答说“哦,那就自便吧”,然后就什么也不说了。烤肉本身还行,但考虑到我之前在其他地方以同样的价格吃过两道菜,而且质量差不多(甚至更好),我本来期望它能更好。整个用餐过程中,没有人提供饮料,也没有人询问我们是否一切都好。事实上,除了就座和“哦,请随意”的评论外,唯一的交流就是“您想要甜点菜单吗?”我们拒绝了,因为我们受够了桌子旁的噪音和来来往往的人。离开时,我注意到地板上有肉汁,于是我指给两位工作人员看,担心有人会滑倒。然而,他们仍然没有感谢我,只是说“哦,需要清理一下”。好吧,我就知道!
很遗憾,我们不会再来了,因为我们不喜欢像牲畜一样被挤在一起烤(里面真的很热),我们更喜欢把剩下的留给盘子里的肉。
