This was a real big let down, we went for dinner on a Friday evening, I couldn't describe the restaurant unstairs, someone said pikey and that is pretty accurate. Everything we ordered had a problem, the beer was flat, the olives were not Italian Marinaded Olives as described on the menu, my courgette pasta only had 5 slices of courgette, my friends pizza should have had pepperoni on it but it was some sort of processed unidentifiable meat, in the end we paid for the pizza, chips and 2 beers.

The waitress was dreadful, while serving us she went off to check if they had the courgette pasta and didn't come back, next time we saw her she was serving someone else. It was the fawlty towers of restaurants and I would never return. The one plus side is that when I advised the lady who was now serving us (and she was very nice) that I wouldn't be paying for the olives and pasta there was no argument which to me says that they realise their food is not to an acceptable level.

I don't know if it has always been like this but I won't be going back to find out more.

Just horrible - can't really say more than that. Such a waste of a potentially great space.

The pizza is alright and the lunchtime pizza/beer deal is very good value indeed. But the place has a very pikey feel about it, no doubt enhanced by the fact the last time I was in there, eating my lunch, they put Deal Or No Deal on at top volume right through the (empty) bar, which was just awful.

This place is awful. The pizzas were average and the pasta was overcooked. And the restaurant itself was freezing. Go over the road to Il Baccio for much nicer pizzas and pasta.

It's strange that the posters raving about Booths have only posted on one pub (ie Booths). We weren't born yesterday!
