| Tried this pub for the first time, and quite possibly the last. Actual pub doesn't seem too bad, although it feels more like a restaurant than a proper pub. Nice tables outside and a decent feel to the place. Was served by the manager who did not interrupt his conversation with someone else the whole time he served me, just took my note, gave me my change etc., and was not overly personable. Carlsberg was fine, Betty Stogg's was rancid. Tasted like vinegar and had sediment in the bottom, avoid it unless you fancy a day off work via gut rot! Never ate, but the sweets we saw looked good, but the mains looked average at best. There are much nicer pubs with excellent food within walking distance from the Old Quay House, therefore I shall more than likely avoid it in future. Lovely area and nice setting for a pub - shame about the staff and beer. awooga - 11 Aug 2008 09:49 |
| This is a local pub to my parents, and I have visited many times over the years. It is very disappointing that the standard seems to have slipped recently and that the manager comes across as an oaf. On our most recent visit, we waited 45 minutes for our food, then were told that it would be another 10 minutes. It was the height of summer, and this is a tourist area, but the manager wasn't sympathetic, saying in effect that I should have known that it was busy. Another staff member said that they were short-staffed in the kitchen, and we would have appreciated that honesty from the manager, who ultimately was threatening to us. We left quickly, leaving our name and address, but disappointingly ending up with fish and chips locally. For the sake of completeness, the beer (Sharpes) wasn't great and the evidence of our visit suggests that the place now seems to have targeted a lower part of the market - plastic menus, etc. It is always disappointing when a trusted favourite goes downhill and I will be writing to the owner to find out why. My parents are local and in their 80s, and it is a disgrace that the manager chose to treat us this way - all it needed was an apology and we would have been more sympathetic. nroskilly - 7 Aug 2008 21:15 |
