Cons:
"Got blasted by a waitress for asking for a straw whilst she sat there eating ice cream and second guessing everything my server said."
"Experience ruined by prickly establishment representative who listened to and misunderstood a private conversation."
"The service was a bit slow, not enough staff on at a busy time."
"Took a long time for the bar man to understand the order and then after going over it several times when the food arrived it was all wrong so we had to wait even longer and then the food was still wrong this was a very disappointing visit."
"However, the service at the bar was poor."

Cons:
"Unfortunately on our return tonight we were left disappointed with half hot and half cold food from the same plate."
"I had the boa buns sadly couldn't eat them as didn't realise there was loads of siracha mayo at the bottom."
"We ordered the 5 piece tapas, and specifically asked for no hot sauce or jalapeños on the fries. When it arrived the fries were absolutely covered in it."
"However I ordered the breakfast muffin today and was really disappointed."

"Food is really bad, one of the meals we ordered was steak and ale pie, the pie was burnt and crispy served as a small slice."

Atmosphere & Location
Pros:
"Best pub in Plymouth I've found so far."
"It's just behind the Theatre Royal and a good place to go before or after the show."
"A perfectly located pub to drink, dine and socialise."
"The venue itself has a very warm atmosphere, great place to go and have a bite to eat or just a chill drink."
"Inside or out the warm atmosphere of friendly staff makes a visit worth while!"
"Ambience is next to amazing!"
"It's a beautiful old building that has retained its character and well worth a visit."
Cons:
"Worn out inside and out. Busy town centre pub with a crowded but uncomfortable atmosphere."
"The actual place is small and cramped, tables and chairs strewn everywhere, not enough Windows to make up for that."
"The bar was really dirty and smell of sick in the toilet!"
"The place gets very busy and noisy though. Gets quite claustrophobic when you are trying to eat."
"The gents was dilapidated and grubby."
"Sat upstairs on a windy cold day and not everyone who went through the door closed it which meant cold drafts and needing to get up and close the door a number of times."
"The building was beautiful to be in, reminiscent of the heyday of the theatre."
