Lukewarm and lacklustre splab
We went for Sunday dinner at the plough carvery. There was only a wee bit of turkey, a bit of ham fat and a huge hunk of uncooked beef, that was rubbery and bloody right to its outer edges. There was a crusty old pan with dried potato baked into it, that the server unceremoniously dumped another bin of mash into. All the veg were cold and the pans were congealing around the edges and judging by the crusty bits had been under a spotlight since lunchtime. I actually had to ask for steak knives as you couldn’t cut anything on the plate with a normal knife. My advice to anyone thinking of going to the plough is…..save your money and buy a pot noodle as you’ll enjoy it more!

The Plough at Kelmscott
The Plough at Kelmscott
Website says there is a vegetarian option (quiche) - there wasn't when I went there - two days after checking the website.
I had a sunday lunch without the meat. Cheapest tasteless potatoes, prepackaged yorkshire pudding. Sauce not available even though the waitress said it was.... And everything was luke warm. Like they couldn't be bothered to even heat the food up?
Somebody else had the pork - apparently it was mostly fat and not much meat. Plus there was only a tiny bit of apple sauce which tasted like ti was out of a jar.
Another person had the beef, it was tough they said.
I mean what can I say? Each dish was about 18 pounds, including mine. And it was not worth half of that. I feel funny because it gets lots of good ratings on this site - but I don't know how..... NEVER going back.
The service was friendly but clueless.
