The Drum and Monkey, Dorridge

We visited the Drum and Monkey on Sunday 31st August at 6pm - The Pub was half empty. I wish I had read the other reviews before we arrived. Our experience shows that nothing has changed since Dec 07.
We found that several dishes from the menu were unavailable, we ordered from the standard menu not 'specials'. Our food took 45-50mins to arrive after ordering, the food quality was very poor - chicken and sauce, I've had better microwaved ready meals! Vegetables hard with brown edges, "not al dente" just undercooked! Waiting staff very apologetic when told about complaints but took no action to rectify. priority seems to be to sell extra drinks, fine if this is what you are looking for, but from our experience do not consider the food.
