The Onslow Arms, Loxwood

We phoned on Saturday to reserve a table for Sunday lunch just in the bar area. Wanted 1:30pm but asked to make it 2pm. that was fine as we were on a day walk. however, we arrived at 12:45 said we had a table at 2 and could we eat earlier. They asked us to wait until 2pm which we were fine to do but asked if we could order before going into the garden - they said NO. Overheard that there was no more roast beef - at 12:45?? Waited until 1:50 and still they wouldn't take our order, just past 2pm they did but by then there was no roasts available only the very basic, uninspiring 'pub grub' bar menu. We left without eating, Between 12:45 and 2pm people were coming in who hadn't reserved a table and just ordering food. Extremely annoyed and will not be returning under any circumstances.
