Hugely disappointed about what has happened to this pub in the last couple of years. We hadn't been for a while, but remembered a very tasty (if a little expensive) Sunday Lunch about a year ago.

However, we had lunch today and it was truly terrible.

The food was okay, but the portions tiny. I had sausages and mash. It was £13.50 for two sausages the size of a fat man's finger and a dollop of mash. My husband had steak - it was overcooked. But the manager was certain we were at fault "It's how the chef cooks it" "well what do you propose we do about it?" Unnecessarily condescending. Please don't give them your custom. They really don't deserve it; serving mediocre food in a clinical and charmless (albeit spotless) interior with service that varies wildly from friendly (one waitress) to confrontational and aggressive (the manager and another waitress). The ale, while not unpleasant, was limited to a choice of....one.

There seems to be a trend for Gastropubs to be more Gastro than pub and the Dysart has gone down this route. There is very little room (just stools at the bar) if you are not eating and the atmosphere is that of a restaurant. There seems to be much more in the way of wine than beer.

On a Friday evening all the tables were taken and there was someone playing classical guitar. They did find room for my friend and me however after a short wait.

The food is expensive but of very high quality. The portions are quite small though, so you really do need to have 3 courses and bread!

I did like the way they've refurbished the place. I would go back for dinner, but it's not a place you would pop in to like a normal pub.

dougie59,thank you for your review of the dysart very informative,cant wait for your next review of a pub you have never been in based on the befuddled second hand memories of a landlord of a since closed pub in hounslow 14/15 years ago.you dont get about much do you??....ask your carer to wheel you around to the dysart one day and you will find to your utter amazment that a g/t and a pint of lager will not set you back 30.00pounds,then go back to your care home and rest in peace....all our love....normal people
