| I agree wholeheartedly with the reviews here. Normally, I'm reluctant to generalise about the serving staff as some will be great whilst some will be jack asses. Here, the serving staff were horrible. I waited ages to be served whilst w*nky regulars were picked in front of me. I have no idea why my group decided to go here but I hope that I never go here again. thedragon21 - 29 Mar 2012 12:41 |
| The Lansdowne treated me to a righteous case of food poisoning this week. I ordered the "lamburger" and found it tasty if oily, and then spent the entire next day rejecting it from my system. I've had disappointing meals here in the past-- limp doughy pizzas, a pricey cheese plate with a couple of sad crackers and some sub-par cheeses-- but this really takes the cake. I don't mind the atmosphere for a drink but I wouldn't advise eating here. ilybriscoe - 10 Mar 2012 09:27 |
| Brilliant comments. I used to live opposite this place, yes, I mean literally 20 yards away through the door the other side of the cul-de-sac/car-parky type thing. I hated this boozer then - absolutely filled to the gunnels with *ahem* CNUTS - and I hate this boozer now. Sounds like it hasn't changed one bit. I used to prefer the Pembroke Castle at the top of the road - not sure that's even there now - gonna check. Globus71 - 22 Dec 2011 15:17 |
| The bar man is an utter utter CNUT. SACK him and youd increase your custom overnight. danolisebby - 13 Sep 2010 08:43 |
| AVOID!!!! The Landsdowne always had a good reputation for serving fresh, well prepared food with seasonal ingredients but I am sadly to report these days are gone. I went there with a friend for Sunday lunch and we were both hugely disappointed with the food, customer service and general aspect of the place (they had two jars of bloodmary behind the stick ybar ready to be served after the many flies had helped themselves first). I ordered spinach fritters with spicy lentils and my friend ordered the lamb steak with mash potatoes. The presentation of my fritters was quite shocking and it didn't taste good either. Two uncooked oily pancakes with tinned lentils on top of it and some greek salad (!!!) on the side. My friend's lamb seemed much more presentable on top of the mash and a beautiful looking gravy. Sadly, the meat was really tough, over cooked and the gravy was full of vinegar which made the whole thing taste rather sour. I sent my dish back to the kitchen after 2 bites, was offered something else by the waiter but couldn't risk having another badly executed meal and asked for a refund instead just to be told by the manager that it wasn't part of the company policy to offer refunds if the client is not satisfied with the standard of the meal. Great policy!!! I was expecting much more for £9.50. If you are after a decent meal in a pub with good atmosphere, don't bother going there. An insider told me their head chef is leaving looking for "fresh challenges" and the kitchen has been left to under paid trainees. Enough said, the area is full of good options, so look elsewhere but don't waste your time and money there. Camillaro - 5 Sep 2010 19:10 |
