The Wig & Pen — Restaurant in England

After a last minute decision to have a roast lunch before leaving Truro, we found the Wig and Pen on Google. When we arrived we were shown to a quiet table ideal for two at the back of the pub. We ordered drinks, but the staff member told us there would be a bit of a wait as there was a large table about to order. We weren’t in a rush, so decided to wait. Fifteen minutes later we order two roast lunches. We didn’t have to wait too long for our meals which came out smelling and looking delicious. The vegetables were served separately. We can honestly say it was the best meal we had all weekend. The food was amazing, and our plates were cleared! Deciding we needed dessert too, we had the vegan stone mess and the strawberries and cream. Oh my word! Both again were delicious but the standout was the basil ice cream with the strawberries cream!

You would hope that whoever is taking your order, would realise that what they were bringing to the table was incomplete. All in all it was an expensive disappointment and we will...

Awful disgusting dirty place. Don’t take my word for it, look at the report on the mail. Listed as one of the most disgusting eating places in the UK. Food Hygiene rating is 1 out of 5. Do you know how hard it is to get a 1 out of 5 ? It must be DISGUSTING. Recent visit, food arrived late for starters and it was luke warm. I could hear other diners complaining on the table next to me also. In this day and age it isn’t good enough that this place is operating at all. How could any restaurant serve disgusting cheap food at extortionate prices from a dirty kitchen. Is there even a proper chef there ? Surely a half decent chef would not allow food to be stored or served in those conditions. Just to add insult to injury they even had a service charge included in the price. My advice...
