What a great place for any Brit! Loved the atmosphere and our server from Manchester! The steak and Ale Pie was delish. Just need to change the sides to just chips(Fries) and gravy. They missed the mark completely on the Pickled Onions. Just miniature cocktail onions. Was hoping for a real English pickled onion like Haywards!
Came in for their Traditional Sunday Roast and had scotch eggs and the roast beef and chicken.
The flavor of the scotch eggs was very good! The sausage was seasoned well with spices and herby flavors, but the yolk was too hard boiled for my personal tastes as it was hard boiled to being a bit crumbly. I think I would have preferred a jammier/runnier texture for the yolk. The egg itself also kinda easily popped out of the sausage casing as we cut into it. Again, flavor was good, I think it just lacked a bit on technical finesse.
The roasts were also very tasty, tho the veggies they came with felt a bit under seasoned. The beef had some parts where the collagen hadn't fully broken down, thus making it a bit chewier and harder to cut than I would have liked, but we came in earlier in the afternoon so it's possible the roast just simply hadn't had enough time yet. If someone were to order this perhaps a few hours after we dined, this wouldn't have been an issue. But overall the both chicken and beef roasts were quite good and the Yorkshire pudding was super light and flaky, perfect for mopping up the juices from the meat.
Friends and I came here tonight. It was a cool time. Festive Christmas decorations. The Wassail was good! The food could have been better. I ordered the pot pie, and it was just filling with a puff pastry on top...and i got salad but they gave me no dressing lol. Pros and cons, pros and cons.
