shazza668 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I would not usually do this but myself and family (7 adults and 2 children) chose to have our Christmas dinner at The Plough. It was the worst meal. Meat cold veg overcooked and it was an hour late. Also we were told there was no food for the children (even though we had booked it) and when I politely stated this, the waitress told me the chefs had become angry when she mentioned this! The manager was trying to be helpful and gave us a 20 percent discount and a botlle of champagne but at ?50 per head plus drinks we were still left with a bitter taste in our mouth and I was tempted to ask for a bigger discount. We were also told we would'nt get coffee or mince pies as they were closing and we did not get everything that was supposed to be on the menu.Unfortunately in the last 2 years I have not had a good experience with food at this pub and probably should have chose elsewhere to go.

Cassius Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Shaz - hate to point out the obvious but in 2 years you haven't had a good eating experience at The Plough, it is often roundly criticised on this Forum and you chose to go there on Christmas Day....................... I know Christmas is the time of peace and goodwill to all but was it necessary to extend those hopes to the catering staff of The Plough?

Fiacre Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 What is it with the Plough? Despite frequent change of management and their teams it always seems to miss the mark? Such a shame as it has great potential and is only 5 minutes walk away!

shazza668 Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 I know Cassius, but 2 options on Christmas Day, The Plough slightly cheaper and more space for the kids. Very good marketing info as well. Gave them benefit of doubt to our detriment. Learnt my lesson!

Sue Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Some years ago I went to a Burns Night at the Plough.It was a joke. The only resemblance to a Burns Night was that they had haggis as part of the meal.Our table ended up providing some of the entertainment, if I recall, as the Plough certainly hadn't :))Probably raucous singing of Scottish songs :)) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/27540-tha-plough-christmas-dinner/#findComment-605526 Share on other sites More sharing options...
