Food Quality
Pros:

Cons:
"Children's meal the baked beans looked like they had been scraped out of the saucepan from yesterday's breakfast."
"The carrots were raw, the chicken was like rubber and the stuffing was hard."
"One meal completely un-edible and sent back, another meal had to be picked apart for nice bits."
"Food was only mildly warm some had fish which was swimming in grease."
"Had a steak it was off (rotten meat) They replaced it and was inedible. Fatty and gristle the chef should never have put them on the griddle!"
"Food was fairly standard pub grub. Fish & chips & burger & chips were fine but children's roast beef was as tough as old boots."
"Food was absolutely shocking then I was told the chef is unable to cook a steak because they are too thin so it comes cremated."

"It appears the quantities have now been reduced quite considerably whereas the cost of the meals etc has increased."
