PS.. . did I mention...

Appalling attitude from the manager. We ordered a Jägermeister and immediately noticed it didn’t taste right. When we questioned it, instead of listening, the manager stormed over and snapped “what’s your problem?” - unbelievably rude.

After insisting, she finally showed us the bottle and it turned out they were serving a different herbal drink, not Jägermeister at all. Any decent establishment would have apologised straight away for serving the wrong product, but instead she dismissed our concerns, claimed it was “the same thing,” and refused to take any responsibility.

We had an unfortunate mishap of throwing a party there with the expectation of them doing a bbq, as advertised. However it wasnt on, then we was stuck with £2.50 rolls which the lady serving appeared she couldn't be bothered to do. I wish I had the pictures to show, but it was very disappointing and quite embarrassing as we wasnt allowed to get any other food from outside and they wasnt prepared to give more than "ham and cheeserolls" alot of hungry guests that ordered £200 worth of BOGOF pizzas next door. Missed business for them I guess. The cherry on the cake was, my nephew, barely 1 year old, being told he wasnt allowed a ball in the garden, the poor boy could barely walk, let alone play games.

Despite that, the landlord did come out and apologise, the function room is lovely, just really not a place to eat at. (WE REALLY WISH IT WAS, THEY WOULD...
