This restaurant is one available to users of the Tesco Clubcard Deals scheme. After dining at most of the others, which were all excellent, we decided to give it a try. We expected something a bit special as it boasts Bill Wyman's ownership.
Arriving on a Saturday afternoon with my family of five, we were greeted by a friendly and efficient waitress. The ambience was a bit disappointing. If it wasn't for the Rolling Stones memorabilia on the walls Pizza Hut would beat it hands down. The brown varnished wooden tables are well worn and have no mats or covering of any kind.
We ordered a large starter to share, which was reasonably tasty but noting special (nachos with melted cheese etc). My youngest daughter ordered a kids meal; the main course of which was delivered at the same time as our starter. It was returned to the kitchen, with us left feeling awkward. When it returned with our main course it had obviously been reheated and looked even less appetising than on its first visit (overcooked burger in a plain bun with chips and a few bits of lettuce on the side).
As I don't eat meat I had taken the trouble to check the menu on the restaurant's web site. The menu offered a variety of fish dishes in a separate paragraph on the menu, along with other options. Sadly the fish section was no longer on the menu in the restaurant and I had to settle for a very bland veggie burger and chips.
My eldest daughter's burger was cooked rare, which she found inedible. It's not often we leave the pattern on the plate after a meal, but this time there was plenty of food for the kitchen staff to scrape into the bin.
Despite the very disappointing main course we decided to stick with it and enjoy a dessert. Unfortunately it wasn't to be. The menu was so long arriving we had to leave to return to our car on a meter.
Credit where it's due though: It must take real effort to maintain the authentic third world toilet facilities!
