The Whitchaff seems to be a victim of its own success. Two of us went there last Friday evening( 16/12026).It was very busy which for a dark cold January night is very good.The initial attention to take our order was as normal.But then it all went wrong.We got served our starters with no cutlery and had to ask the very busy staff.I then got served my main course.But no sign of my wifes main course.After fifteen minutes of waiting we had to ask again a very busy member of staff for my wifes main course.The staff did seem harassed.When it turned up it was about half of the portion of the same meal that we had eaten ( midweek) approx two weeks ago and barely warm.The staff were only young.We felt a bit sorry for them.So we just paid and left.Would we go again...yes.But def only midweek.
