Quite right MrBen. I wish The Lordship every success...

I have no idea who speedbird is, and I'm not aware that we "have form elsewhere", unless speedbird also posts/has posted under other names.


I completely agree that this thread (or indeed any others) isn't an appropriate place to make personal comments about other posters, but if somebody makes one about me you can't expect me not to respond, surely?


Hey ho. Plus ca change.

Went last night with some mates for food. Nice nice friendly feel and was full come 8.30pm at bar and tables at the back. Good straight up pub food and service beer at reasonable prices and they've taken away the bar stools....a small but tactical move for the better.

I like the choice.. Most of the time I stand.. The EDT has so many you can't get near the bar

and I end up moving them out of the way.


.. Sometimes when I have filled my legs with ale, I feel the need to sit down.

And the degree of self awareness they have when others want access to the bit of the bar that they think they own...

We went early Saturday evening for some food and we were impressed. The food was delicious, good choice of options and prices seemed reasonable. Service was very, very good: helpful, friendly, personable, just as you'd like.

Overall, it wasn't too busy (although all the tables in the bar area were taken) but that was probably also because we left before 8pm (we had a little one with us).

Looking forward to the next visit!

A bit of a Jekyll and Hyde experience.


First visit - epic food and service, good value for the quality.


Second visit - ordered wine/food within 10 mins of arriving. Forty mins later, no food. After polite discussion with charming waitress, who couldn't get an answer from the kitchen, we spoke to manager. A shrugging of shoulders, a vague apology, but absolutely no indication of how much longer our food might be. We paid for our bottle of wine and left with it.


If we had been told there was an hour's wait for food at the beginning, we would never have sat down. I do hope complacency, matched with pressure for maximum bums on seats, isn't setting in. Otherwise they might end up going the same way as the four previous incarnations at this tricky spot.

Haven't eaten there and not really my choice of eatery with tables in the middle of the floor

and out of my price range...


.. but for those who choose to support a new local business it would seem not too much to ask

for a little more consistency. With people recommending the place and others being left disappointed

and frustrated.


They really should of been able to sort themselves out by now, or at the very least show a little more

concern about the level of service they seem to be providing.


Perhaps some complimentary drinks when customers are kept waiting.


With the suggestion that the place would make an excellent venue for a pre Cinema meal, that's not

such a good idea if you are going to miss the film due to being delayed.

    • I think Watsons General Telegraph do two margaritas  for £13 every Thursday. The Great Exhibition also does a margarita deal on a Thursday: https://www.greatexhibition.pub/new-events-1 I've not tried either deal yet.  
    • We first used Aaron's services for a badly damaged wall that had gone back to the brickwork due to water ingress from the bay window. We found Aaron initially through recommendation and were very fortunate to do so as we already had a couple of quotes from trades found online that were just ridiculous, clearly just a rip off, so not sure what we would of done without that recommendation. We have just had more work completed by him, two walls skimmed and more comprehensive work where the brickwork was exposed around the fireplace. The wall above the fireplace was the original plaster finish and in good condition but the original plan was to have the whole wall replastered but we couldnt get the tv off the wall bracket so asked Aaron if he could just plaster up to the tv, not ideal but not much choice. Aaron didnt have any issue with that atall and more than happy to do it. Amazingly the join between the new plaster and old plaster is invisible. Perfect feather edge finish.  Aaron is very pleasant natured, he turns up on time, he doesnt mess about and gets on with the job. He works in a very clean manner. He doesnt try and inflate the job to make it more expensive. We found him to be extremely competitively priced. Both jobs have been finished to an excellent standard. The finish is so smooth its like glass. We will certainly be using his services again in the future.     Aaron Manser 07773 410661
    • Yes, and now there's a leak further down Barry Road. Two men from Thames came and stood there looking at it and then went away. Over 24 hours later water still pouring out and no sign of any action to repair
