点评:Second time visited, first time was last summer. Again we couldn't get parked in the small car park. It was again way too warm and uncomfortable inside as the night went on.
Nice sounding main meals with a specials board. Main meals generally £25 though which we weren't expecting, was it this expensive last summer? I couldn't recall. No drinks menus on tables which I didn't like, Waitresses buzzing about, friendly and smiling, helpful, nice. It quickly came apparent it is more of a place to go celebrate rather than just to go grab some tea if you fancied a night off from cooking, like I did.
Regretted going as soon as we'd placed the order, we waited ages, 1 hour for just 2 main meals, we were told it'd be a 40 min wait but it did take a lot longer. Before we knew it there was no scope to do anything else we had planned for the rest of that evening. One meal was nice the other was just like you'd have anywhere else.
Despite its look from outside, it just isn't a run of the mill pub, don't bob in hoping for a 'normal' priced pub meals like we did. We didn't hate it, but we won't go back. Other people seemed happy enough and all the food brought out looked nice. Just know what to expect price wise and waiting time when you go.
翻译:第二次来,第一次是去年夏天。我们又一次没能在那个小停车场找到车位。随着夜色渐深,室内依然闷热难耐。
菜单上的主菜看起来不错,还有特价菜板。不过主菜一般要25英镑,这让我们有点意外,去年夏天也这么贵吗?我记不清了。桌上没有酒水单,我不喜欢这一点。服务员们忙碌地穿梭着,热情友好,笑容满面,乐于助人。很快我们就发现,这里更像是一个庆祝聚会的地方,而不是像我一样,想休息一晚不想做饭,只想喝杯茶的地方。
下单之后我们就开始后悔了,等了很久,两份主菜竟然等了一个小时。服务员说要等40分钟,结果等了更久。不知不觉中,我们那天晚上剩下的时间就什么计划都没了。一份主菜还不错,另一份就跟其他地方的差不多。
虽然从外面看没什么特别的,但这可不是一家普通的酒吧,别像我们一样抱着“正常”价格的心态进去吃顿饭。我们倒也不讨厌它,但也不会再去了。其他人看起来都挺满意,端上来的食物看起来也挺诱人的。去之前一定要做好心理准备,价格和等待时间都得做好心理准备。
