Admiral Hardy — Restaurant in England

Marstons pubs in our area and in my experience are nice, family friendly places.

Rough around the edges would have been fine, but this pub looks nice and isn't.

The staff are a 5* except the manager who really didn't care.

They had new card machines that didn't work so we had to pay cash. That's okay, every now and then the technology fails and that's nobody's fault.

Toilets are grim, even for a pub. Males had soap at least, female loos had none.

The clientele can't be helped but the manager could curb their behaviour, he didn't. One man was vaping, clearly, either that or I've met a half man half dragon 🐲🤦‍♂️ in front of the staff and manager.

Food was okay, it was slightly worse than a hungry horse 🤔

Painting the walls is okay but when the floor and carpet say 1965 and the walls say 2024 it's almost worse than if you hadn't decorated at all.

All in all, it served a purpose we were Hank Marvin. But I'd never...

The food is amazing I came here once before and I remember it being delicious and I've just come again and does not dissapoint the desert menu is quite limited but the food is amazing I had the ultimate spicy beef burger and it wasn't very spicy with I like I can do a bit of spicy but not too much but it was amazing I has 2 burger patties lettuce spicy pulled pork nacho chese bacon American style cheese and crispy onions I didn't have it with onions because I don't like them but even without the onions it was delicious it also comes with chips for the atmosphere I mean it's a pub what do you expect bloody Nobel prize winner "oh the fineee winee aged 20000 years tates most delicious" with bloody fancy music playing no its a pub just people having a good time it's usually quite busy so the service can sometimes take a while but not very long compared to other places 5/5 stars...

The food was very good value for money, (although not very warm on arrival), and the staff were extremely friendly, however five minutes into our meal the tv above our heads was switched on at a very high volume for the rugby, which meant my sister and I being unable to have a conversation with our 94 year old mother. I did ask if the volume could be lowered a fraction, but am unsure if this did actually happen. I appreciate that its a sports bar and wouldn't have minded so much if other people were actually listening, but there were only six other customers in that area and they were all talking amongst themselves. A suggestion would be to maybe give customers who sit on table 2 notice if the TV is due to be switched on when they place their order, as we weren't expecting that after we'd...
