The Pilot Pub — Restaurant in Coventry

It’s the worst Indian food I have had in my life. The staff was pathetic, excuse was…the actual staff are not here due to COVID. When I entered, they started to write down what was for the GROUPON coupons. Certainly, from the menu but restricted to about 6 items from starters and 6 from the main dish. She called me back to the till to tell me what was available. When I asked, why can’t the management print the menu for GROUPON coupons and put them on display or at least on GROUPON site the list should be there…it’s very deviously advertised. One would think, you can have one dish from starters , one from the main and a naan, but total disappointment. Naan was also the cheapest and plain. The shish kebab came… one kebab cut into two. That put me off straight away…two small pieces. I asked for a lamb dish but was served chicken. Chicken was very hard, over cooked or done a long while back. I asked for hot (spicy), but it was sweeter than an ice cream. Generally, Indian dishes are decorated with coriander pieces on top, but here none. Chef certainly does not know how to present a dish. When I spoke to the chef (certainly well passed his retirement age), he told me that portions are cut into half of what they are on regular menu. Could see two big dishes lying in the open…exposed to all without cover…hygiene??? So, a kebab dish, a main dish and a naan on regular menu would have cost me £ 1.50 more but would have fed 2 people, since portions were cut in halves for Groupon vouchers. Daylight robbery. Total rip-off the pricing, portions and...

Food is absolutely delicious.The portions are extremely generous & there's also the option to take home any leftovers. Fresh ideas, dedication and a little respectability was long overdue. Separating the restaurant from the bar is genius,enabling families to dine comfortably without unwelcome disturbances. The staff are young enthusiastic & visibly happy in their working environment. Young Amelia & George were rushed off their feet, yet still took the time to give us personal service during a family birthday meal. The car-park & front entrance is rubbish free & inviting. The bar was totally packed with locals enjoying a brew after a hard weeks graft. Although it's buzzing and noisy, the atmosphere was electric. Well done Dave & thank you for your personal attendance on a...

Well where do I start!! Ordered food at 8.20pm to be told 40-45 mins. Rang back after 1hr 20mins chasing delivery. To be told (after the staff argued between themselves while i was hanging on the phone ) that do I want the drivers number to call. Obviously I refused I’m the customer. Driver then told them oh went to wrong postcode! So finally had a delivery at 10.05pm 1hr 45mins since I placed order where they then wanted to charge me £27.50 when I was told £25.50. And offer me a complimentary can of coke, which I sent back. Finally got food - rice was cold, curry’s were supposed to be medium which they were too hot Overall what a terrible experience with no real apology Will not be ordering again or...
