"Beautiful building but let down by the decor which is dated; marble topped tables, old carpets and a trellis screen. Fabulous selection on the menu and specials board so I was looking forward to the food. I ordered moules mariniere, and surf and turf with a salad and Italian roast potatoes. Moules mariniere is one of my all time favourites so I was pleased to see it on the specials board. However I was so disappointed I've never had it with great lumps of celery and slices of red onion in a weak watery sauce!! My husband had scallops served in a shell bit dated these days unless it's coquilles st.jacques! So I was hoping our mains Roquefort Steak rare and surf and turf medium rare would salvage the experience. The surf and turf arrived steak with 2 king prawns swimming in an oily greasy mess! Not as advertised! And the chef must have got confused I had the rare steak and my husband had the medium rare swimming in a sauce with a chunk of Roquefort on top. Would have been better if the sauce had been served separately so you could choose whether or not to issue your steak with armbands! The sides didn't save the meal; the salad was varying sized chunks of cucumber, peppers and tomato with 3 salad leaves! And the Italian roasts were served in the same dish they were cooked in they were stuck to the dish so I ended up missing out on the crispy outer and only able to get to the fluffy insides such a shame!Not impressed overall. Service wasn't great either; waiter /waitress (4 different people serving us! visited the table 8 times and never removed the dirty used glasses. And finally, there's a notice in the bar saying they won't tolerate swearing however it's not enforced people on the tables either side seemed unable to communicate without swearing (loudly !Maybe we just ordered the wrong dishes but I'm not prepared to spend the cash to find out with so many other venues to try. Such a shame, if only the food and presentation was post 1990s!!!!!"
