Coach & Horses rothwell — Restaurant in Leeds

Visited yesterday for mother’s day and unfortunately was very underwhelmed . The service from staff was friendly enough and the entertainment they had on was great but everything outside of that was very poor. We waited around 2hrs for our main and only meal which even for an occasion such as Mother’s day is not justifiable. The main meal (beef roast) itself was frankly inedible, everything all quite clearly microwave grub and at the price of £15 a dinner it was just really disappointing . To add to this, they then offer ‘extras’ which consisted of stuffing, cauliflower cheese and even GRAVY? All of which i would expect to see included for that price. Also i have no idea what that last one’s all about, especially when the dinner came out very dry so you were basically forced into paying for extras. To top it off, a Black forest gateaux that was ordered for dessert was just a slice of chocolate cake with some icing on top. To summarise it was just low quality food at restaurant level prices and in my opinion although the atmosphere was great, there is better places to visit for a Sunday roast/dinner for the money. To clarify we did obviously only order what was on the Sunday roast menu, any other dishes they serve...

Service I thought was a little odd, you wait at the bar to be told the waitress is taking food orders so have to wait for the poor young girl to finish serving tables food ordered and delivering sauces before you can order food. Still she was polite and pleasant.

We ordered our food, which took over an hour to come. The kids meals were great good portion sizes and both kids 5 and 8 cleared their plates. The adults fish and chips was the same size as the child’s portion only twice the price, it was nice but left hungry. The chilli was bland and tasted like nothing but pepper and was a tiny portion half what you would expect an adults portion to be, we asked for chips instead of rice which came drowning in oil and flakes of fish all over we asked for them to be changed, they were returned after the fish on the surface had been picked off we sent them back again after tipping the on the plate unveiling the fish they had missed and asked for a fresh portion the same chips were returned cold within a couple of minutes. We had to ask for our bread and butter that came with the fish and chips although by this point the fish and chips had been about eaten.

Beer garden great...

If I could leave 0 stars I would. I know pub food can be rubbish sometimes but they usually make up with large portions. Not here! There was five of us and all 5 Sunday dinners were tiny! Literally a mouth full of mash and when asked for more they brought out the same portion in a tiny bowl and even had the nerve to charge us for it! On top of that the mash was terrible my 6 year old sister could do a better job! The pork belly was very bland and tasted like it was pre cooked and a tiny portion too, they put hardly any gravy on and when you ask for more they bring you enough for 1 person, also the beer was flat and overpriced! Very very greedy owners! Anyway we finished the food then went next door to go get a burger each from The Angel because the Sunday dinner didn’t even touch the sides! Never going again to that over priced terribly rationed pub food.

Edited:

Apparently they have had numerous chefs walk out because of the owners making them make the food how they want it to be made. So again very...
