Tried elsewhere but it was unexpectedly closed today 2nd December. Went in the door of our alternate choice of venue and a lady behind the bar pointed us in the direction of the tables in an area called The Kitchen for a meal. Nice lady gave us menu's and a young lady took our drinks order while we decided on what to eat. We all had a diet coke followed by chicken and rice soup which my friend loved, nachos with salsa, jalapeños and sour cream which was burnt at the edges and the salsa didn't seem homemade and on the whole was quite dry. The prawn tempura on toast also looked dry and the toast was also burnt, my male friend said it was OK. The mains of 1x chicken fajitas was nicely presented but there wasn't much chicken and there was a lot of onion/sweet pepper sauce but the x4 mini wraps with accompanying cheese, salsa, sour cream and jalapeños made it seem a lot. The Hunter chicken burger was again burnt at the edges but saved by the bacon/cheese, fries and Asian slaw which Ray said was just fine. I had the bbq beef Brisket burger which I hadn't realised was a double patty burger with a little bbq shredded Brisket on top, once again the edges of the burgers were dry and burnt and the centre was still slightly pink. The Brisket was dry despite the bbq sauce (bottled, I suspect). The Asian slaw didn't taste right, a bit vinegary and not unlike ordinary cheap coleslaw. The seasoned chips were fine as were the 2 onion rings but I honestly couldn't finish any of the items. The service was good and friendly but the place was cold (?heating on). The burgers were one a buy one get one free deal as it is on Mon-Thurs but everything came to over £47 which is fair. Haven't visited for years and liked the different decor but a little tired in places and was cold inside. Was starting to get a bit busier as we were leaving but the food was only average so won't be eating here again.
