The Prior — Restaurant in Sunderland

Food was poor quality and microwaved, cheesy garlic was pre sliced garlic bread with a cheese slice on top then microwaved = soggy cheesy garlic bread! Chips were home made but chewy and not crispy. The grease on the plate was a dark brown colour and looked like the oil in the deep fat dryer hasn't been changed in decades, the peas looked loads of different colours too which was odd (see pics) ...

We came for Sunday lunch yesterday and it was absolutely beautiful. We were greeted with a warm welcome and a smile from the staff as soon as we walked through the door, Really good value for money and super tasty!
