Who puts Brie in a Ploughmans?
Or a salad with no dressing?
Who makes you wait 10 minutes for a cup of tea?
JJs.
The meagre portion of salad on a tiny, impractical square plate clearly had every intention of being a crowd pleaser, but failed to deliver.
Delivery time of the food was acceptable, though the fact that my drink came after my food was vexing.
"Never mind" i thought as i tucked into my £9 worth of salad, cheese, chutney, quiche and scotch eggs "im sure it will be worth the wait" unfortunately not.
The chutney was good, but the 1/4 scotch egg was not what was expected by the menu decription, the salad was simply iceburg lettuce, a piece of cucumber that had begun to dry out, a 1/6th of a tomato, some browning apple and some cress - no dressing.
The bread was a store-bought roll, and tge pieces of quiche were dense and lacking in flavour.
My tea arrived after my initial exploratory fork-fulls with a cappuccino cup.
Overall, the experience wasn't bad, the restaurant is nicely decorated, the staff polite and the food was edible, though it left nothing by ways of a good impression.
My main irk is that the menu stated "cheese" as part of the Ploughmans. Now, the traditional ploughmans either has Stilton or Cheddar, depending whom you ask as they have strong flavours, the slice of brie on my plate left me baffled and disappointed, completely overpowered by every other flavour on the plate, incorrect hardness for having with anything other than the bread...
TL;DR I wouldn't go back read more
