Words cannot express how appalled we were by the service we received and how disappointed we were as a family to be treated in such way when we are usually regular customers here. Our table was reserved as usual, with it being for a birthday celebration. For some time we have visited here on every occasion, Birthdays, Christmas, Football Days... the list goes on. This is our grandfathers local and to make it easier for him we meet here regularly but after our experience this evening, it will be very hard to encourage s to come back. We made our food order as 3 separate orders as we always have, sometimes more when our boking is at its fullest. When ordering our food, we had to repeat several times due to incorrect ordered being repeated back to us. Once our food arrived, it went from bad to worse. The ordered appeared to be arriving in group order. First our grandparents food came out together, then my family of four, followed by the final group of 5. On the final plate, we advised we ordered chips not fries. The plate was taken away and was bought back by the waitress and we were told, the receipt states fries and therefore we would not be able to get the fries changed. We advised we were certain that chips were initially ordered. Unfortunately I did not believe this to be a fair case as it may have been selected incorrectly on the system when ordered as we were certain on what we asked for. I carried the plate back to the bar, as well as my 3 year old child and politely asked for the fries to be exchanged for chips. Again, the plate was taken back and again brought back out to us, and were advised by a member working rom the bar we were still unable to have the fries exchanged for chips and argued we ordered incorrectly. By this point our food was cold and our entire night ruined. We had to pay for an extra portion of chips just for the birthday girl to have the meal she originally asked for. On top of this we had to wait nearly 30 minutes just for a children's ice cream and a steak that came our more than well done when it was requested dot be medium rare. The steak was taken away to be rectified but again the plate was brought back, with the additional sides left to stay cold whilst the steak was sorted. By the time the steak came out the rest of the plate was stone cold and I had no appetite to eat any of it. After a while some of our plates were cleared but the majority of the table was left with plates and glasses. It felt somewhat as if we were being punished for asking our order to...
