The Legstraps — Restaurant in Great Britain

The reinvention that this place has undergone has made it worse. I have been here before in its previous existence: food was ok and the service good - it was overpriced for what it was though. You can now order at the bar (which is fair enough), or use a QR code - we went for this option and that was a major mistake to make! We ordered our main course and drinks, these did not arrive until I did get up to go and check with the bar if we needed to pick them up - we did not, but they had been overlooked. The QR system has its merits but surely you should be able to start a tab and then pay for all that you consumed during your meal at the end. However, the system is set up that once you make the order you have to pay straight away - this means multiple payments for a meal. As such. from possibly having us having a starter, main course and number of drinks, we had a main course and a drink each. The food was utterly bland and while the young lady that brought us the food was pleasant, the point is there really is not much service going on - is this yet another effect of Brexit Britain (as you can't get waitressing staff) or was the revamp done solely with the purpose of cost cutting by reducing staff members? Either way it makes the eating experience simply poor. Alas, I don't foresee a return to this place in a very near future. The food is nothing to write about (bland), the service quality has declined and the prices are surely not any lower than they were...

If you haven’t yet tried the new menu at The Legstraps, then I highly recommend you do! We went yesterday for our wedding anniversary. We don’t like having a Sunday Roast out (bit biased but mine are the best 😳🤣🤣🤣) so it was good to go somewhere that still did a full menu, along side a roast dinner if you wanted!

We shared a couple of the small bowls for starters; the pork belly and the meatballs, and both were lush 😋. They were still moist and full of flavour. We weren’t going to have steak as we’d had it the night before, but the Flintstone Feast sharer sounded too good to refuse!!! And it was the best decision as it was amazing 🤩 🤤. The steak was cooked to perfection and it was so tender. The mac and cheese had just the right amount of goo and stickiness to it, the chips were proper chips and delish and the green beans were so flavoursome 🤤

The staff were brilliant and kindly gave us a box to take the left over steak home from the very generous portion. Yes, it would be nice if it was full waiter service, but that’s only a very very small negative (if you can either call it that!!). We went to the bar to order, but that was it! I had mentioned it was our wedding anniversary on my booking and they had done a nice little slate decoration 🥰. Overall, it was a fab meal and we both highly...

I'm very saddened by the experience at this pub as I was starting with very high expectations by seeing reviews and website. We arrived Sunday lunchtime when the restaurant was almost empty and we were left alone a long time before even being able to order. The food came more than half an hour later, after we reminded the staff about our order. The food quality was good, with lots of vegetables, but lacking flavour in the main roast item (e.g., vegetarian roast was literally a piece of cauliflower, the chicken was a plain breast). Portions were very small so we decided to share a couple of desserts. Unfortunately we were not able to have them, as there were more delays. After over 15 minutes no food was in sight so that we decided to leave. When asking to pay at the counter the staff was strangely asking us if we would like to pay without seeing the bill and initially charged us for the desserts we didn't consume. Luckily a refund was issued after I noticed it, but the overall conclusion was that we left half hungry and extremely tired...
