What an awful place, went with my wife an children for Sunday (late) lunch - 6pm. We were delayed being seated by the Duty Manager arguing with a Customer about BAD SERVICE. We should have taken this as a warning and left at that point. Downhill was the only way it was going after that. Having never been to a Carvery before we were unsure what to do, I eventually got the attention of a staff member and got instructions. we cued up School Dinner Style and moved slowly to get served. My wife (being Vegetarian) asked which of the Vegie options was on today, only to be told (quite abruptly) "you should have ordered that from your Server". WE HAD NO SERVER!! The food itself was reasonable, my Wife just had a plate of Vegetables. We waited in vain for anyone to ask if we wanted drinks, gave up and went to the Bar ourselves. I turned a pint of London Pride down as I have seen clearer Muddy Puddles. The service here was so slow our Meals were by now just TEPID. We decided to skip Desert, pay up an go. Again trying to get staff to recognise you wished to talk to them was a struggle. We eventually after a long time managed to get paid up and out of the place. Needless to say WE WILL NOT BE BACK!

Not necessarily worth seeking out, but if you want something to eat it's not a bad spot and there is a few decent real ales on tap, opposite Maxims Casino, and near the Holiday Inn, on a nice sunny day it is worth the walk along the river nearby.

Classic Toby outlet with all the corporate chintz (Carry On pics etc). Nonetheless serves a couple of ales (Pride and 6X usually) for prices that compare to Wetherspoons and people do go in there just to drink them. Quality is usually OK.
