Pineapple carpaccio
Tom S.

Barely rates 3 stars for marginally acceptable food, disjointed service and 2 star level for value / price. Here in Winchcombe we ate at the Wesley house last night. That was a 5 star all round meal and experience for 71 quid. Here at the Lion tonight we had nothing better than regular pub food and the tariff came to 101 British pounds. So the Lion loses plenty of luster in comparison to the Wesley. So what's wrong here? Amateurish, novice service. Appetizers brought to the table without plates. The inexperienced waitress disappears for 10 minutes before bringing the plates. Wine that was first ordered upon sitting down at table took 15 minutes to arrive. This timing problem continued the rest of the meal. Food: my burger was ordinary at best. Not luscious. Milk bread bun was almost stale. The thick cut chips were creamy. Some had crispy exteriors, some were soggy. My wife liked the cod fillet with vegetables. We spied the other diners around the room. It appeared that the giant slab of fried haddock & chips was the correct meal to order. Dessert thin pineapple slices slightly roasted with a side of coconut pudding was fine enough. The flavor nor preparation didn't send my spirit to Hawaii, but the islands are on the other side of the planet. I'm sure that the cook here has no frame of reference. So, I'd never eat here again. If you are in Winchcombe I can sincerely recommend to you having a meal at the Wesley house or the Plaisterer's arms.
