Booked a table online two weeks prior to visit and specifically asked for a table in the bar area. When got there (only 2 of us) we were seated in the restaurant but the bar area was not busy? Ordered steak and stilton pie which i have had numerous times and always enjoyed. On this occasion the mash and veg were only lukewarm. As they were short staffed i didn't send back as waiters/waitresses were thin on the ground and by the time they would have heated it up my friend would have finished her meal. Did mention it to waitress when she came to collect plates just to be told she would mention it to the chef. Had to go and track down staff to order a coffee and then again later to ask for the bill. A disappointing visit which will make me reluctant to return anytime soon.
