"We have visited this pub many times without any issues, but this time everything seemed to go wrong. It took a long time for our orders to be taken. There were seven of us at the table, but when the starters arrived, we were two short and had to follow up with the staff. By the time they finally arrived, the others had mostly finished theirs. The main courses also took a long time to come out. Two of the medium steaks looked overcooked! I’m not sure if the staff heard our comments or if they were already aware, but they brought us two more medium steaks. To their credit, our waiter was very apologetic about the situation, and the management didn’t charge us for the missing starters. We ended up having three bottles of wine throughout the evening, mainly due to the lengthy waits between courses, and the management even waived the charge for one of them. Overall, it was a disappointing evening at The Star, but we would still consider returning since it’s a convenient halfway point for us and our friends, and we’ve never had a bad meal there before. Let’s hope it was just a one-off incident."
