    Ate here on evening with a group who had been promised dinner yet were then offered cheese and…read morebiscuits. After some deliberation I suspect that the owner decided to try and cook. Big mistake. I had jerk chicken which was the most disappointing thing I had tasted for a long time and almost inedible it was so hot and spicy. I have an asbestos tongue but this was ridiculous. I suspect that the 'cook' had just smeared jerk paste over it instead of creating a marinade. Worse was the fact that she dismissed the complaints of everyone, by saying that was how it is supposed to be. Err don't think so. There are ways of dealing with complaints and this was very badly managed Other meals were small, bland and ordinary. I would go back as it's a lovely pub, but would make sure that the chef was on duty before I ordered anything.

    On my last day doing a contract job in Combe Down they introduced me to this pub on my office…read moredoorstep that I'd completely missed. How shocked was I to discover Caribbean heaven. I ordered the curry goat on the barmaids recommendation and was ready to be disappointed. When the food arrived in my head I was already questioning why the portion size was so huge but as soon as I had my first mouthful i was in heaven. Don't tell my mum but this was on a par with her cooking. I couldn't even finish my dish and I'm a big eater. Colleagues eating with me were glazed over with joy when eating their dishes, jerk chicken, spicy prawns, steak sandwiches. The Jamaican chef came out to see me when I finished and I wanted to give him a hug. Thumbs up from all around. If you want a true Caribbean dining experience visit this place, the service is outstanding and I've been sneaking back a couple of times a month for my fix when my mum is on a cooking strike. Chef always pops out to see me and it's nice to be welcomed by all the staff.
