The Full House — Restaurant in Barnsley

I visited here with my mum a couple of weeks ago. We are fairly new to the area and have tried The Norman just around the corner, which is your typical chain pub. We really fancied some good quality proper home made food. After looking at reviews I thought I'd give it a go. The first time we visited we had the carvery, which I'll admit was nice. Then we gave it another go as I said a couple of weeks ago. Big Difference.

I ordered the sausages and mash. I'm sorry to say but it was gross. I was shocked at the kiddies portion size. It was the size you'd feed a toddler. So I knew I was going to leave still hungry.

It was either just under £10 or just over. So I was expecting good quality butchers sausages. I knew straight away as soon as the waitress put the plate down. Richmond's sausages. They have such a distinct smell and taste. If it wasn't Richmond's I'll be surprised. When you bite into them they are just cheap and nasty mush. A tiny dollop of a lumpy mash and a spoonful of peas.

It's such a shame because the staff are great. I have wondered why it's usually quiet, the exception being a Sunday. But...

Well where do I start. We did not book but there was a table available as not particularly busy with only 4 tables with people waiting for food.Waitress came for drinks order then after came back for food order.. After waiting an hour and a half a waitress came to ask if we had ordered food for then to be told the order hadn't gone through expressing that they didn't know how this had happened...Well I do the waitress blamed the till Well doesn't the ticket that she had wrote on go through the the chef plus we had asked her for another drink which didn't arrive at the table to have to prompt her again..Yes they offered to do the meal but as a family we had got past it..We were offered 20% off the drinks bill and a free drink from the chef also on next visit a 25%discount which we will not visit again due to poor service and waitresses with not a smile on their face..Very disappointed as visited this establishment on numerous occasions. Since last take over things have not...

Not the best Sunday Lunch. The beef had been sliced prior to being brought out to theo carvery station. It was served by the assistant with her hands all be it wearing a plastic glove,why not use tongs?. The fammon we chose not to bother with seeing that had also been pre sliced and put back in the roasting dish with the water it had obviously been cooked in. Yorkshire puddings, green beans, sprouts were all obviously frozen produce. The sprouts were actually thawing out with the heat from the hot serving station so were quite watery. The veg was tasteless. The only tasty veg were potato's and the cauliflower cheese . The whole point point of Sunday carvery is that the means are carved in front of you and fresh tasty veg. The staff were all pleasant they are the saving grace at the Full House. Only given 2 stars for the food and 1 for the staff. Very much doubt...
