Nice friendly owner and staff but oh.....(sorry 'T' Bar) the steak and kidney pie menu needs a lot of work. The pastry was palid and limp instead of the much anticipated golden crusty pie I had been hoping for (perhaps partly due to reheating in a microwave instead of an oven?... a cardinal sin with pastry) The filling was devoid of kidney and the beef was almost a beef puree instead of the usual chunks of tender steak one expects to see in a steak pie. (see the photo of my own home baked steak pie for comparison) The mash was bland without seasoning and the meal was served with a thin instant gravy. I feel a little guilty posting such a critical review but these things are of little value if they are not a true reflection of our personal experience.
