Victoria Cross — Restaurant in England

Have never left a bad review anywhere before BUT on this occasion I have a duty to warn others about the Disgusting PIG SWILL they call SUNDAY ROAST. Just been to this place and ordered 2 Sunday Roast for lunch, never in my life have I been served such revolting food that neither me or my wife could eat any of it.
