The Three Horseshoes, Abbots Ripton

De Ja Vue! It seems that bad attitude to customers combined with poor service and small portions comes around, and around, and around. Arrived at 7:45pm on Saturday 31st Jan 2009. Told a 20 minute wait for food. Tried to order from the set menu and specials board to be told half the menu no longer available and then 45 minutes for 2 meals to arrive. The stew that had been on the menu for all of January clearly had been. There was so little meat left, and it had fallen apart, that I ended up with a carrot and potato soup with a dumpling. The manner in which my complaint was handled was appalling. And than as a previous reviewer, was asked to leave in a very loud voice and please don't come back. My wife is a professional chef at a Rosette quality restaurant. When she attempted to be constructive and point out the problem, she was ignored and treated with total derision. In today's economic climate I really hope this place disappears where the sun don't shine. In the clouds of contempt they clearly have for their paying guests.
