We booked a table at the Peahen to celebrate my wife's birthday We had a photo of her standing outside the pub as a child that's why we travelled up from Devon to go to this PUB. We had explained this on the phone when booking . The walk ins in front of us got a nice table Most restaurants when you book a table they either have a reserved sign on the table and some you see your name on the table NO such system here Having given a nice table to the walk ins. We were offered the last available table which we have named the Leprosy table Due to the constant traffic past the table of prams and push chairs and a young waiter who past by this table at least 9 or 10 times In the first 20 minutes they we figure they must have been too afraid to get mowed down that NO one said welcome to the Peahen here is the menu we are left guessing if we were to order at the Bar NO one asked us if we wanted a drink NO one asked to take our order Finally after asking how it all worked the rude and surly bar tender sent some one over. We were offered another table further up the Pram and pushchair express way When the plates finally arrived we were asked 'would we like cutlery' Really The other advantage the walk ins ahead of us would have had, were slightly warmer, than our cold roast potatoes and lukewarm carrots For Gods sake get someone to teach the cooks to slice the beef across the grain not with the grain of the beef it makes it less chewy NO one was thoughtful enough to ask how was our meal NO one asked would we like to look at the dessert menu NO one asked if we wanted another drink NO one asked if we wanted a coffee So my word would be when booking a table here. They will not save you a nice table and ask not to be put on the Leprosy table
