| The new nickname for the pub is 'two for a ton' alluding obviously to the high prices. We visited on a Saturday, pleasant meal but meagre portions & the eyebrow raising bill. Obviously filling a niche as it was busy enough. I wouldn't recommend it . Grumpygrover - 23 Dec 2011 16:18 |
| I went along to the Fox and Grapes this afternoon with a friend who had not been there since the refurbishment and subsequent inflation of the prices. We ordered the beef roast dinner at £19.50 and hoped it would be good! When it arrived the meat was extremely fatty, the carrots overdone and the green beans untrimmed. When we complained the person we spoke to (presumably the manager) was extremely confrontational and informed us that this cut of beef was very fatty and that the food was definitely worth what they charged as it was a very good cut of beef. They eventually took 20% of the bill, but the air of the person who spoke to made us agree never to go there again. Definitely a pub that thinks it's a lot better than it actually is, completely over priced and absolutely not worth a visit. Eater123 - 4 Sep 2011 16:37 |
| Enjoyed this on the last visit...gave up trying to get parked for the tennis, and watched it all afternoon in the pub instead ! tommo5 - 10 Aug 2011 16:48 |
| Had a very poor experience on Friday evening. Started off ordering the Lamb, but when it arrived it was grey, dry and tasted bitter. The waiter assured me that it was indeed served the way it was intended, so I asked for the rib-eye, medium to rare instead. That promptly arrived around the time the rest of my friends was finished eating - grey with a touch of pink in the middle - In other words, extremely overdone. This prompted the head waiter to be overheard saying "now they are just being disrespectful" at which point I gave up on getting something decent to eat. Frankly, I can take the mishaps with the food, but not the snooty comment. I should point of that the rest of my party was happy with their food. Zelange - 4 Jul 2011 09:26 |
| Really poor. Sorry to say that as was expecting great things. But the refurb has left the place cold - all bare walls and stripped wood. There is nowhere you would feel comfortable just having a drink - bar is tiny, all tables set up like a restaurant, no soft furnishing, so feels like a canteen. Food prices are high for no discernable benefit - some dishes were good, some were just plain bad. Portions can be mean, especially the pathetic burger (They should be ashamed!). Steak was poorly cooked and tough. Fish was good, as were the chips. Service was inconsiderate. We were left hanging at the door for ages, orders were taken slowly. They've parked an ugly storage unit right outside too, so had to elbow my way past smokers leaning on it. Seems to be lots of fake positive reviews here so I'm deducting an extra mark for that. sw19chap - 3 May 2011 11:29 |
