| A group of friends involved in a squash ladder occasionally use the courts at St Paul's school on weekends, and this pub is perfectly placed for a recovery beer and dinner. A group of six of us poppoed in on Sunday for dinner. I've been here a few times previously and it always seems a pretty nice place. The beer is always OK, and they had Doom Bar on tap at the weekend which is always a nice pint. We also had a Sunday lunch while we were there - they do a special menu on Sundays - 4 courses for £19-£20 (starter, main, pudding and cheese), but having played squash I wasn't really in the mood for a massive feast. I couldn't pass up the roast completely however - I had the beef, and it was very nice. Good quality food for a pub, although the roast on it's own was still £14 or so, which isn't cheap. I would have to agree with previous reviewers on the quality of service - we were waiting a long time for the food to come, and I can imagine that this would be problematic if you were in a rush (fortunately, we weren't so it didn't really affect our experience badly). The waiting staff did seem quite helpful, although there was a bit of confusion when we tried to pay our food bill at the bar - apparently these are on "two different systems". One thing to note is that if you are planning on coming for food on a Sunday lunchtime, it's probably worth booking in advance, as it was pretty rammed when we arrived (although we did still manage to get a table eventually). All in all though, it's not a bad pub, and the food is well worth a look. steej - 10 Mar 2010 15:29 |
| Just had a terrible experience in the Bridge. It's a lovely space but the service was appalling. First the manager didn't show us to our table; just waved in the general direction of where he wanted us to sit. After waiting for 45 minutes following ordering my partner asked for an update on when our food was coming. After ten minutes no one had bothered coming to speak to us; so I enquired again. Finally we were told our waitress had forgotten to give our order to the chef. What annoyed us was not that the waitress had forgotten - these things do happen; it was that no one had bothered to communicate with us and we had to chase and chase them. Finally to add insult to injury we were not even offered a complimentary meal or even a complimentary drink! I have rarely encountered such poor service and it's a shame because it is a lovely pub to be inside. Very disappointed. Joeystewstew - 7 Feb 2010 16:33 |
| went to the bridge based on milsonman's reveiw and was very pleased with the selection of ales ( wadworth 6X & doombar on my visit) also noticed there list of other guest ales they offer-refreshing to see. like milsonman it was a nice and busy evening and felt good a place a would return to. the offer of food was too great for me not to be tempted, not disapppointed at all. i had the chilli and ginger calamari ( wow) and was impressed by there menu's on offer. Meat Fish Wine a menu they run claims to show off there favourite food and use of favourite suppliers with most of the fish coming from cornwall. seems to be a menu with that little extra although i didnt take the plunge it looked inviting. they also have good size beer garden which has cover. my friend and i sat out there for a while, pleasant even at this time of year......shall return soon ( cumberland ale sounds like a good tipple) NBM - 12 Nov 2009 10:26 |
| Popped in for a quick beer and although the huge display of lagers and gassy beers dominate the bars I am pleased to report that two ales were available: Fullers and Naked lady. I had a pint of Pride. Nimhbus will be happy. The restaurant was very busy despite it being early so they must be getting something right. Equally the bar area was "nice" busy. Perhaps there is a benefit from the closure of the pub opposite but it seemed all OK to me. milsonman - 27 Oct 2009 09:48 |
| I would not call this a beer drinkers pub - as there was nothing on the beer list when I asked about it that was enticing but a relaxing pub eatery. The Sunday roast special was 4 courses and a glass of champagne for £20. The beef roast was perfectly cooked and the vegetables all fresh and tasty. The staff were friendly and could not do enough, even when the lady next to me knocked over a vase which spilt wine all over the 90% finished plate of food in front of me. They insisted on comping the desserts and coffees and even to replace the main (though not necessary) . Perhaps not the worlds best beer boozer but a good place for a Sunday, with a relaxing atmosphere , thoughtful staff and manager and I think very excellent pub food. pauljt71 - 28 Apr 2008 13:40 |
