This is not a British gastropub!

Two of my British friends and I went for lunch to Harrington's because they were doing a roast lunch. For drinks we ordered a bottle of prosecco which they were out of but the good waitress suggested an alternative and gave us a taster which we enjoyed so we went with her suggestion which was a very pleasant bubbly.

Two of my British friends and I went for lunch to Harrington's because they were doing a roast lunch. For drinks we ordered a bottle of prosecco which they were out of but the good waitress suggested an alternative and gave us a taster which we enjoyed so we went with her suggestion which was a very pleasant bubbly. We all ordered the salad bar and roast beef with roast vegetables and Yorkshire pudding. The salad selection was good and on the whole the salads fresh and tasty. However, we all agreed it would be better if they provided plates for the salad rather than a bowl where you have to pile everything on top of each other. The roast beef was excellent - tender, tasty and a bit pink in the middle. Sadly the rest of the meal went downhill from there. The gravy was awful - it tasted as though they had put tomato ketchup in it and not of the roast meat juices at all. It was so disgusting that we had to scrape it off our meat and we noticed we weren't the only diners doing that. The roast potatoes were not roasted - they should be crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle - but these were fried new potatoes. The roast parsnips were undercooked, making us suspicious they were frozen. Worst of all was the Yorkshire puddings which we definitely think were frozen and had been cooked in a microwave - they were soft doughy balls a bit like muffins. A Yorkshire pudding should be crunchy on the outside and light and airy in the middle. The puddings whilst not bad were nothing we would order again. We complained to the manager who dealt with our complaint quickly and satisfactorily. However as the food was so bad we will never eat there again.
