The bar/ restaurant area and the decor are fairly good if a little dated. We had pre-booked an ‘OAP’ special Lunch and the staff were not particularly welcoming. We had mentioned at the point of booking that the diners were vegetarians. We had also been led to believe that there was a degree of choice from the menu we had been shown. Nothing could have been further from the case. We had barely sat down when a warm bowl of pea and ham soup ( as we later discovered ) was put in front of us both, though at the time we assumed it was a vegetarian split pea soup only. We were then asked if we were ready for our main course. A roast turkey dinner!!!! When questioned, the staff member told us that it was a set menu and there was no choice! Upon mentioning that we had pre booked as vegetarians, we were offered the dinner with the turkey left off the plate and a lukewarm, tasteless veggie gravy. To say it was mediocre is being kind. Then, a scoop of cheap ice cream was dumped in front of us for our ‘delectation’. Then, upon paying the bill, to add insult to injury, we were asked to pay £10 more than the price of the set meal plus drinks. We felt as if we were treated as two infantile old codgers who would have just paid without questioning the bill. Needless to say, there will not be a return visit. A much better lunch can be had for vegetarians at Grannies Tea Room, Carlo’s, Greggs or Barter Books Cafe.
