The Village Gate, Wendover

My experience here was far from satisfactory, had a pint of Old Hooky, either the lines hadn't been cleaned or aylesbury united had been playing football in the cellar with the barrel.

Then onto the food I had the plaice and was promised it was fresh, however I went on a monday and as far as I know fish markets don't open till tuesday mornings, It certainly didn't taste fresh but perhaps that's because they had a quiet weekend as I was in there on the saturday and there was only 4 others in the entire pub!!

The service or lack of, perhaps its just me but my pet hate is being served beer with the barman holding the glass from its rim, I found the chap who served me Abrubt and as if his mind was elsewhere, Perhaps he wanted to be elswhere as all I could here him talking about was swansea and his pregnant girlfriend.

I certainly won't be going back in the near future which is a shame as I hate all the chain pubs/restaurants and was really hoping this would be an independant eatery I could rely on to take my friends family and business colleagues.
