We went on Easter Sunday, I had a sausage baguette. Not that nice.

My wife had a prawn jacket, she said the jacket tasted like it had been cooked in the week, and the prawns were rubbery and had been defrosted under hot water.

Also, £9.30 for 2 pints of lemonade and lime and 2 fruit shoots for the kids!!!!!!!

May as well drink beer at those prices!!!!!!!!

Not impressed.
