Have used Woogies a few times before and wanted to give it a go in their new premises. We were a party of six for wife's birthday and starters, drinks went well. Then the mains. My Father in law and myself ordered a 10oz gammon steak and received a slice of ham! Apparently this is excess meat used after the Sunday roast day. Not what we ordered though. Bit naughty of the restaurant to do that. Son had katsu chicken and the sauce was really powdery, the chicken ok but the grease in the batter was horrendous. Wife and mother in law had steak that had a really horrible greasy film. I understand it had garlic butter however, that was just nasty. Also ordered salad which didn't come. Daughter had butter chicken burger which again was greasy. The chips on all dishes were so overcooked as to be inedible. Was offered a free dessert and maybe a discount on the mains. Three cookie doughs were great, one strawberry crumble excellent and sadly two tiramisu both gone off. We still paid £200 for the catastrophic meal and unfortunately rather than deal with the complaint so as hopefully not to happen again my wife was blocked from the Facebook page etc. Sad time really as local business needs folk especially during the quieter winter. Well you...
Read moreHad booked a for Mother's Day 2/3 weeks in advance (on the phone) because of the time we booked for 6.00pm We would be sitting downstairs due to in-laws elderly in there mid to late 70s which was great as they have some problems going up so many stairs! Imagine when we got there & told we we're sitting upstairs I questioned this & was told sorry but we're full downstairs so we all went upstairs it was ok we we're sat behind a group with young children 1/2 yrs old crying ect so not a quiet meal but the parents were good with them so not too bad! Not alot of atmosphere We ordered our meals, I had Cornish Mussels for starter's could have had more only got 6 but we're nice, my father- inlaw had roast beef but not impressed as very gristly! Had lemon berry cheesecake for afters, expected lemon tasting cheesecake but got plain cheesecake with lemon curd on the side uuum, overall the rest of the meals were nice & quite alot of it to be far, all came to just over £200 which included drinks so good, this was our 1st time under Woogies, we've been several times before when it was just The Carew & found it really good, soooo as to wether we go back uuum not sure, but this is only based on...
Read moreWe were looking forward to coming here for a while as the food looked amazing. The starters were fantastic, mussels and calamari. For the mains, we had the ribeye steaks, which were very fatty, not what we were expecting for that price. We also had the big cut of beef, this was superb. The only thing that let it down was the chips they used. They were awful little French fry chips which were all cold, rather than decent home made or even steak cut chips. The mushrooms were deep fat fried and the onion rings were store bought. In most places that's not a bad thing, but for the prices they were wanting, they just could have made that bit more of an effort with the little things that make the whole meal. I would love to try this place again though as the fish is brought in daily. The service was great and overall a...
