If you can read this review and mentally imagine that it has no stars, you’ll understand how awful this place really is…
Shocking and strange. It’s hideous in here. Just because you’re in the posh bit of town doesn’t mean you’re getting quality. In this case it means you’re getting weird, badly cooked and over priced rubbish.
For a start, I was excited by their iced tea. I really really like iced tea. And I’ll pay through the nose for it. So more than three quid for a glass didn’t bother me too much. Until the gave me a bottle of Lipton Ice. I had to ask for a glass. And ice.
I ordered a chicken burger which was undercooked. Dangerously so. Unfortunately I was too hungover to complain. They wouldn’t have noticed anyway. The staff here are incredibly rude.
What was the strange part? Well, most of the time when you order a chicken burger, you get chips. Am I wrong? Well I got a few burnt potato wedges and some frozen veg. Seriously. Carrots and peas and cauliflour with a chicken burger. Hardly a hangover cure. I hate cauliflour. It had been boiled for so long it was falling apart.
Oh, and it took us an hour to get served too…

Comments (2) Offending content?Actually, I do wonder whether you should raise the underdone chickenburger with the local council’s Environmental Health dept., if only to stop them killing someone.
I raised something with my council’s Environmental Health dept. (in my case, it was small crawling creatures, and I don’t mean babies - a chilli burger was heaving with tiny insects). The very next day the Food Safety people visited the place and did a thorough inspection of the kitchens, and questioned the staff, and reported back to me. I was quite impressed.
oh god! that sounds horrid!!!! ick… feel itchy just thinking about it!
maybe i should have said something… i feel bad now…
