I Tried London's Worst Roast Dinners

Today, we're in London trying to find the worst roast dinners. Now, you know how this works. We're not trying to bash the business. We're going in there and hopefully we can overturn the review. But this has been a tricky one because the load of these places aren't that bad. All of them have three and a half star, four star. But nonetheless, let's get on with it. We have Albert's Schloss. Now, you're probably thinking it's a 4.5 on Google, Harrison. This isn't even that bad. You'd think. Now, don't get me wrong. This is a spot that you come to have a little boogie. You have a little pint. You have a little drink and you're most likely going to be leaving wobbling. Put it that way. See, I would never come here for a roast dinner, but they do one. So we've got to check it out. There have been quite a few one-star reviews. Now, I want to say, I don't think this is actually going to be that bad. Like really, genuinely. Normally, when I'm doing these like worse videos, I'm like, oh, I'm a bit skeptical about this one. I'm not sure about this. This is going to be fine. It's a 4.5 on Google. Like, come on. I am also going to say, I have been in here once and it was pretty crazy with the music. So if audio cuts to me like, hello, guys. Hello, blah, blah. And there's a band behind me, that's what's going on. It was a bit of a palaver book in this, by the way. You reserve your spot and then they send you an email and then you've got to fill out your car details and then specify that you want to do the Sunday lunch. It's two courses for £26 or three courses for £32. I couldn't select which one. I could only select Sunday lunch. So let's get inside and try it. But again, I don't think this is going to be that bad. We've sat down, got the menu, got the drinks. Now looking at the menu, on the booking site, it said two courses £26 and three courses £32. Two courses £28 and three courses £34. So it's £2 more expensive when you're coming in. Just letting you know. The selections sound really, really good. They've even got a beer onion soup as an appetizer. They've got a selection of beef, pork, chicken and a mushroom if you're vegan. I think we're going to get one of each minus the mushroom because no one else on the table wants to get a mushroom. I'm not going to do that to my dad. My dad's here today. I feel bad if he's eating. He's come up for the day. I'll say happy birthday, mate. Here's a mushroom vegan Wellington. It's going to be a tough sell. We've got a rump of beef. We've got a paprika roasted chicken. And then we've got something that I don't even know how you print. I don't know how you say that. A schweinshaxe. Roasted pork knuckle is what it is. What is catching my eye that makes me think this does not deserve to be in the video 100%. They do duck fat roasted potatoes. Any place that does a bad roast dinner is not doing duck fat roast potatoes. They've got music on but it's not that loud. It's fine. Nice little ambient setting. The food is just upstairs. So there's no loud live stuff going on. Thank you so much. Cheers. Right. I was actually just going to make mention of that. But you know what? They just came over and said it's going to be an extra two minutes. I went for the pork. I'm eating my mate's beef. You know what, mate? This ain't bad. The beef's on the more well-done side than I'd like. You know, you're not getting a selection of like, can I have it red? It's just cooked and more on the well-done side. But that's all right. For the vegans, let's kick it off. Now weirdly, I don't know if he was just saying it. But my dad said that he fancied the mushroom wellington. I'm seeing maybe some lentils, some carrot. Very tasty. I like that. They've loaded up on the herbs. Obviously, they're missing the meat. This is a vegan option. They're going heavy on the herbs. That's really good. I don't know what they're doing for the potatoes. But let's just try the chicken real quick. Paprika roasted chicken. It's gone really quiet in here as well. There's loads of other tables. I feel like they're all watching me. But here we go. I'm happy with this. I haven't even tried mine yet. But this does not deserve to be in this video. I feel mean actually featuring it. But if anything, maybe this could just highlight it instead. We'll do that. I still ain't got my dinner yet. So I'm thinking might as well just show you the pig in blanket. I've done a little mustard with it. Yeah, all right. These are the type of pigs in blankets that you would just make at home yourself. Like you buy sausages from the supermarket, wrap them in bacon. There you go. I've tried everyone else's, but I haven't tried my own. And I've purposely not tried a roast potato. The camera woman said they weren't the best. But let's try. The potatoes are pretty dead. But let's soak them in the gravy and see if that hydrates them a little bit. Because they do taste a little bit dry. The review of a watery gravy I think is completely unfair. Completely unfair. It's not the best gravy I've ever had, right? But it's a respectable gravy that definitely does not deserve to be on the worst list. Now I've got on a pork knuckle, which looks insane. Can you hear this? All right, getting that crackling there. God, it's a bit actually intense this. You hearing that? Yes. All right, let's get in. It's a massive portion. My pet peeve, swede. Don't go anywhere near that. I'm not even going to rate that. I've got childhood trauma of this. Yeah, it's just... Swede is just horrendous. I think I have the trauma of my parents lying to me saying it was mashed potato. And it just never was. If anyone watches these videos and actually likes swede, let me know. I'd love to know how you, you know, got to like it. God, mate. It's just so crunchy, my knife's bending. I'm gonna sling the dishes everywhere. All right, let's not do that. There we go. Right, bit of pork. I'm just dunking it like the gravy's a dip, not pouring it over. The pork is the thing to get, without a doubt. That is brilliant. That is a chunky bit of pork. The crackling is so hard that I don't know if I'm even going to be able to cut it off. I don't know what to even do with that. You know what? I'm happy. The only thing... Oh my god, that is nuclear hot. I think it's safe to say the only thing that I'm not impressed with are the potatoes. That's it. I think when you see duck fat roasted potatoes, you're probably expecting a bit more fancy gourmet roast potatoes. They're a bit dry. They are hot. Everything's hot. That's... no complaints about that. We did get some cauliflower cheese, which some of the guests have indulged in already. We've got some truffle mash as well. For sure truffle-y. I will say the cauliflower is a bit on the watery side as well. You're tasting the cauliflower and it's just like water. But there's cheese there nonetheless. I've been to some good roast dinner spots and the Yorkshire puddings don't even look this good. So I'm actually impressed with this for sure. This is a good roast. All right, the guests here were bringing me back to earth and saying if I was trying to find the best roast dinner, would this make the list? It would be last place, right? But because we're trying to find the worst, it's actually winning at being the best. So it depends which way you look at it. But I just want to make sure that I'm not glazing it too much. But also I am letting you know, I do prefer it to a tobikari. I just think the potatoes need work. That's it. Chicken's great. The beef was a bit overcooked but still really tasty and soft. This pork, I'm gonna have to find a way to get this crackling off because I actually don't know. Let's just have dessert. I've had enough of this crackling. It would be nice. Maybe I'll soak it in gravy and it will loosen up. No. Oh, I'd love to try it. Wait, getting it. Here we go. Might break my teeth for this. It wasn't worth the soaring but you know, I'll stick with the meat. Right, let's try dessert. Right, one thing to notice real quick. They now have a live singer. So I don't know of many roast dinner spots that you're going to be getting live music. If that's your thing, that's a plus. We've gone for a brownie and a sticky toffee pudding. A roast dinner isn't complete without a sticky toffee. So we had to get one. Here we go. All right, let's not judge it yet. Let's just try. It's definitely on the more spongy side. It's very sweet and these like biscuity bits are crunchy. If that's your thing. Caramel's not burnt. I'm liking it. They give you a complimentary vodka schnapps with coconut and vanilla. Right, I thought the sticky toffee pudding was sweet. But that, the schnapps, the vodka, vanilla, coconut. I don't know if that is coconut. Is that coconut? Caramel. Oh my god, that is insane. All right, very fudgy brownie. Warm. Oh, I know we're supposed to be here for the sticky toffee. But the brownie, in my opinion, does win. This was like, I don't know what is missing. It's just missing something. Well done, well done. As soon as that's really good. Well done. It's just borderline too sweet for me. Yeah, I'm gonna stick with the brownie. Right, okay. Let's go outside and chat some more. Right, just to note, we got the bill. They said, oh, because your pork thing took a while, we've taken it off. They didn't have to do it. I maybe waited five minutes after everyone else got their food. I wasn't actually complaining. I was fine. I didn't mention it once. I said, oh yeah, cool, thanks. They took it off the bill without me even asking as well. I wasn't like making a hissy fit of it. Next thing, our server, Tash. Lovely. And also everyone else was really, really lovely. Someone took us downstairs. They showed us it. It is humongous. And this goes into my next point is that you, I don't think you necessarily come here for a roast dinner. You come here on a Thursday or a Friday night or even a Saturday night. This is open till 2 or 3 a.m. I wouldn't come for a roast dinner, but I'd come to get sloshed. Let's get on with the next one. It wouldn't be right if we didn't come to a Toby Carvery. Now this is a, it's not bad, but there's so many of them that stuff is bound to go wrong. We're at the Toby Carvery in Denham. It's rated a 4.2 on Google. So it's fine. I think anything over 4 is absolutely fine. I think this is going to be fine. But you can't ignore there are a load of one star reviews. And just to go over these quickly, because a load of these are recent. So four months ago, Toby is not the same. It wasn't very busy when we arrived. And now I know why. It was awful. The chef carving the meat had no pride in his work and just carved the meat and slapped it on the plate. The veg and potatoes were all messy. Meat everywhere. Sat down to eat my Yorkshire pudding. Was soaked in oil. Was disgusting. Potatoes were hard. Cath does not go easy on Toby here. Just absolutely slating it. To be fair, it is quiet. There are only three cars in the car park. So Cath's got that right so far. Another review from Ron Harris. One star. Not great. Would definitely not return. Roast potatoes seemed like they'd been there for several days. So a lot of chat about the roast potatoes not being up to scratch. Also a load of the reviews. People are collecting it and they're not happy with how it's turning up. We're not collecting it today. We're going in. We're eating it. How it should be fresh off the plate. Let's see what it's like. Let's get inside. But again, I don't think it's going to be bad. There's, I want to say there's thousands of Toby carveries around. Let's find out. Toby carvery amount. I'm going to guess 650. Oh, how much did you say? 150. 158. Oh, camera woman. Let's go. 158. 158 Toby carvery locations operating across the UK. Again, we want to overrule these reviews. We're not going in there being like this is going to be terrible. Oh, the potatoes are bad. Let's see what they're like. We might be wrong. Let's give it a go. We've just sat down. Server's lovely. We're going through the menu. Two courses, £13.79. Three courses, £15.79. Solid. We've gone for a garlic bread, the famous carvery, and then we're doing the dessert later on. That's £15.79. So we're all set there. You need to read through the little stipulations because a weekday roast is £11.49. If you come here on a Saturday, it's £13.49. And if you come here on a Sunday or a bank holiday, it's £16.49. I do remember it being £8 something. I probably came here a year or two years ago. This exact one. And we did a cheap versus expensive roast. So if you're going to check out the video, you can actually see what the price was. I'm certain it's gone up a little bit. But anyway, let's get it and try it. That is what I'm talking about. Right. Just to show you a comparison. You've got a standard plate right there. That's the difference, right? I've got the option of two Yorkshires and the sausages and more meat. Banging. Camera woman got the garlic bread. Now, it's like that garlic you get out of a squeezy bottle. Shout out to my mate that told me about the Yorkshire pudding trick. You put your stuffing in the Yorkshire pudding to save space on your plate. Very good. Good note. A load of the reviews were focused on the potatoes. So I feel like it's right that we start on them. Now, again, they were advertised as beef dripping roast potatoes. There ain't no beef dripping on that. I'll tell you that. They're a bit crusty burnt on the back. And then they're kind of not cooked on the front there. That's an interesting one. Then over here, you've got a bit of a dry looking one. Let's give them a go. Let's try. Oh, rock hard. Yeah, right about that. See, it's not a roast potato. It's like a 10-minute oven potato. The problem with the potatoes are when you have one or two, it kind of gets stuck down your windpipe. There's also a fly on the table that's driving us mad and it keeps disappearing and going. It's definitely safe to say these are probably the worst potatoes we've had in the video. But let's focus on the other things because I don't want to disrespect Toby Garvey. The meat selection that I did get, I went for the gammon, the turkey, and the beef. I got a little bit of the gammon. Let's try it with the gravy. Gravy's hot. Gammon's all right. Not the most succulent, but I'll take it. Salty. Now, this is where I was a little bit upset. The beef is a bit... Well, it's not pink. Put it that way. But again, if you like well-done beef, maybe that's your thing. Not mine. Also, one of my mate's mum spoke to me recently and I was telling her about this video I'm doing and they said, yeah, but it's all subjective, a roast. You like crunchy, crispy roast potatoes. I don't. And I was like, oh, fair enough. I've never thought about that. So maybe people out there might like oven-roasted potatoes that taste like oven chips. Same with the meat. You might like well-done. You might like bland carrots, which I'm guessing these are going to be. Fly landed in me ear. Right. Carrots are overcooked, but they have been garnished with some herbs. The thing that upsets me with a roast is when you do the veg and there's no care with the veg. It's just all overcooked. It's just been boiled. Yeah, same as that. The gravy is thick and tasty and warm. I'll take that. Sausage is all right. I don't want to make out it's completely empty, but there are some tables that are empty and there are a few tables that are taken. I just don't think it's as busy as it used to be. We're here at a random time, but people are starting to bring their kids now. And cool to know, kids eat for a pound. Quite good to know. By any means, it is not inedible. It's a lot of food. I just do think I agree with the review of the bad potatoes. I think that's fair enough. And the beef obviously could not be like that. One thing I didn't try was the turkey. I thought the turkey was going to be quite dry, but that's actually really tasty. That is quite tasty. This is the thing. A load of the meat is just sat there. So, you know, when it's coming fresh straight out the oven, probably going to be a lot better than it's sitting there for hours. But also my mum is here as well. I've made a good point. Most people are probably going to prefer their beef a bit more on the well-done side because otherwise if it's too pink, everyone's just going to be like, oh, you know, it's not cooked. It's still mooing. But I think you go to a fancy, fancy roast spot. All the beef is, you know, medium, kind of. And that's how it's kind of carved and given to you. No, no, no, I'd argue. I think more people like their beef cooked medium than well-done. Well, anyone watching this for a roast dinner, how do you like your beef? Medium or well-done? Or maybe medium rare or whatever. But let's just say medium or well-done. I think more votes are going to be medium. Anyway, a lot of food. The only thing I just don't like are the potatoes. That's about it. Everything else spot on. Banyan, great. Amount of food, great. But I do agree with the potatoes. Right, let's get on with the next one. What a lovely day for a terrible roast. I shouldn't be judging it. I shouldn't be judging it yet because this is a tricky one. We're at the Swan Hyde Park. It's a 4.3 on Google. You're probably thinking, Harrison, what's the research all about? This is a fine establishment. Well, you say that because this is a tricky one. You go into the reviews and most of them are five star. So that's great. Most of them are five and four star. So you look at it and you go, ah, cool. But this, this is where it starts to get a little bit tricky because when you filter the reviews and you go on Sunday roast, you see about 34 reviews and most of them are all four or five star. But that was seven or eight years ago. When you look at the more recent reviews of roast dinners, they're all like one star, two star. There are some four or five stars, but a lot of them are one or two star. And just to read a couple to you, because these are recent reviews, David came here seven months ago, gave it a one star. He said, it's been my go-to spot since 2018. This is probably when it was good, right? Charming pub, I've wined and dined over a dozen times for years. I've savoured their meals, the cosy ambience, the warm memories made here. Must agree. I've never been here, but it does look like quite an inviting pub. The main draw, the Sunday roast. I'm a huge fan of lamb, a rare find on most menus. And the Swan proudly lists a lamb shoulder roast that have me booking reservations with high hopes. But there's heartbreak. For two years running every Sunday, roast visitors ended in disappointment. Sorry, we're out of the lamb, they say time again. God, this is like an essay we've got here. Anyway, he says, it feels like a bait and switch and it's left me frustrated and let down. I think basically, whenever he goes, they just never have the lamb in stock. Another review, one star, four months ago. Below average Sunday roast, the roasted pink beef roast was not pink at all. The slices had been grilled to heat up. That's what they said. One thing to note, they do take these comments on board. They read the reviews and they go, okay, yeah, we're going to pass it on to the team. So I kind of rate that. And again, we're not trying to bash the business. We're trying to overturn the review and see if these people are actually chatting facts or not. Because many years ago, the roast used to be a four or five star, but you can kind of hide the one star reviews from just being a good pub. Again, it's only a Sunday once a week. Right, let's get inside, see if we can get some lamb and also make note of the serving size. Right, let's get inside and see what it's like. We've just sat down, we've done our order. I've got to say, I think the staff are really lovely. And because it's a nice day, I didn't know about this upstairs seating area. You can look out and see Hyde Park. I really like it. As we walked in, got a hello straight away. Then we walked upstairs, guy was happy to see us. Then we've sat down and then the server as well. Any allergies, blah, blah, straight on us. Gave us a menu. Yeah, like really good, really good. So far, by no means a one star spot. No, no way. We've got a Aperol Spritz on the way. I went for a house red because I've ordered the lamb, which was £27.50 by the way, which is the most expensive option for the roast. If we're talking about options, we do have a sirloin of beef, £25.50. The chicken supreme is £23.50 and then the lamb was £27.50. They also offer a plant-based option, which is a nut roast at £20.50. We've also gone for some pigs in blankets as a side, £6.50. Of course, you know, the camera woman's already got olives on the way. We'll keep you posted on them. Right, we have the food. I went for the house wine. Don't know the price yet. Went for the lamb. I think it looks really, really good. The only thing that I am looking at that's letting me down are the roast potatoes. They don't look like roast potatoes and we're getting attacked by a wasp by the way. It's back, it's back, it's back, it's back. Anyway, it feels criminal to have a glass of red wine in the sun. I don't know if anyone else does or not, but I thought I'd have to get it if I'm getting the lamb. Anyway, house red, what's it like? Yeah, we'll take that. Quite a strong peppery one. We've got extra gravy on the side. I rate it. I didn't even ask for that. I wouldn't complain about the portion size whatsoever. I'm just upset about the roast potatoes, you know what I mean? Like, how's that a roast potato? I don't feel like that's even been in the oven. It's like mashed potato. Oh my God, I'm actually going to get stung up. So far, roast potatoes are a let down. This lamb is a bit on the tough side, but we're getting stuck in anyway. God, right, here we go, lamb. You know what? It's not the most like fall apart meat ever, but I'm satisfied with it. Right, respectable Yorkshire pudding. That's pretty good. The complaints about the portion size, I don't think are fair. I think it's quite a decent amount of food. If anything, I just want a bigger plate to move my food around because I feel like it's all just piled on top of each other and it's going to spew out at the side. Yorkshire pudding is good. We also went for some, oh my God, I've gone completely blank. Pigs in blankets, there you go. Dipping that in. They're nice. They actually taste better than they look as well. I'm just, potatoes are the main thing. I think probably as well. From the video that we did of trying to find the best roast dinner, it's so hard to have a roast dinner now and be like, oh yeah, this is really, really good because there's so many good ones out there. I think if this was on your doorstep, the ease of use and ambience and friendly service, it's great. It's not the best roast, you know? I understand why it's gotten some bad reviews, but I think they're quite a bit unfair, to be honest. Meat could be softer, but it's all right. I think you'd probably be safer with the chicken. The potatoes need work, though. Come on, you can't be... I know some people don't like their crunchy roast potatoes, but you need a bit of them. You need a bit of crunch. I've had mashed potato crunchier than that. The chicken tenders look like they're freshly made. I think they look quite good. There they are. I'd want them maybe a bit crispier. That's good. Not bad. You know what? Let's... Oh, that hot sauce is hot. It's spicy. It's like a buffalo sauce with extra chilli. We've got a massive selection of greens and veg as well. Parsnips. Keep me away from them. But we've got a load of other bits going on as well. You've got your greens, you've got your carrot, you've got your greens and your orange. Let's finish this up and chat outside. We got the bill! Total came to £77.51. Let me run through the prices, we'll... Let me run through the prices real quick. There we go. Got it on the third go. Aperol Spritz, £12. Olives, we'll come back to the olives. All right, we'll come back to the olives. Chicken tenders, £9.50. Lamb shoulder, £27.50. Pigs in blankets, £6.50. And then the house red, which was 175 mils by the way, £8.40. I'm not too mad about that. Let's rewind. Let's go back to the olives. £5. Camerawoman said off camera, when I'm finishing off the roast, probably the worst olives I've ever had. I was like, whoa, this bold statement. £5, tastes like plastic. When I say the camerawoman will eat any olive and finish any olive before we've even picked the camera up, like seven olives have already gone by the time we're about to film. I've never known such a thing. Anyway, we're going to get to some positives as well, by the way. We're just saying all the bad now. To summarise it, it was a mid-roast. And just to go in about the bad bits, the roast potatoes were bad. I don't think they were as bad as Toby Carvery because Toby Carvery would like these old leftover roast potatoes that were just reheated, but they had a bit of a crunch to them. These, there was no crisp or crunch whatsoever. Genuinely, it was like mashed potato. Next thing, cauliflower cheese was cold. I want to say cold. The carrot, warm. The greens, warm. Cauliflower cheese, cold. And it didn't taste of anything. Next bit, more on the lamb. I was, you know, I was doing it. I was like, it ain't that bad. Obviously, it's all edible. It's all fine. I had a bit into the lamb, right? Near the end, I went, and I was like, oh my God, oh my God. I was freaking out, right? I don't know what it was. It was like a kind of bone gristle. It wasn't gristle though. I don't know how to describe it. It was like sand. It was like crumbly biscuit crumbs that were rock hard and like sand. And I was like, oh my God, I'm freaking out. I don't even know what this is. And it was like stuck in my teeth. And then I was like, no, I'm done. That's put me right off it. So now I kind of want to say that the meat was just not it. Like it really wasn't it. Don't get the lamb. If you're a fan of lamb, don't come here and get the lamb. Now the good, okay? This is the good. If you're thinking up. I want a nice pub with a nice view, sheltered by the sun. It's an old pub as well. The service is spot on. Drinks, I think great. I think if you come into this pub, just come for drinks. On a nice day, just come for drinks. That's it. And you know what? The reviews of the one star, I think they are a bit harsh, but I definitely would probably give this, based on the Sunday roast, a two or three star. Like that lamb at the end really put me off. Like really put me off. Right, well, that was the Swan. Let's get on with the next one. I'm kind of getting over having bad roasts, but cue the next one. Next up, we have the Dickens Inn. And before we get started, I want to say, this is a lovely area. And you need to come and check it out, whether for a roast or not. It's so cute. You've got nice little restaurants everywhere. I'm sure there's a great spot. This is 100% a hidden gem, but let's get back to the video. We are here for the worst roast dinner. And this place has gone quite a few reviews about it. You see, this is a difficult one because it's rated 4.2 on Google. So you're like, oh no, that's a solid pub with over 9,500 reviews. So like standard, that's pretty solid. I'm happy with that. But you go on the one-star reviews, there's 75 reviews about the roast dinner. And I'm not going to say all of them, but there are quite a few. Like genuinely, I'm not even exaggerating. There are quite a few that are one-star and they are not happy with them. Just to get a few up and read them out for you. Rebecca left a one-star review, said we had a reservation for the Sunday roast. It was terrible. Probably the worst roast I've ever had, to be honest. The food was cold before I finished. The Yorkshire pudding was burnt. The stuffing was served in a hard bowl that was inedible. Looked like dog poo. That's good. Well, we'll take that. We're very happy with that. We've definitely got to try the stuffing. Another one. Sheila came here, left a one-star review. This was seven months ago. Went here yesterday for Sunday lunch. Don't bother. The food was absolutely terrible. It arrived cold. We asked them to stick it in the microwave to heat it up. Basically came back the same. Yorkshire puddings resembled a Frisbee. Sheila, thank you very much for your review. We are going to check it out. The last review from Eileen. Bearing in mind, there's plenty more, but Eileen said, possibly the worst roast dinner I've ever eaten. Two strips of beef, which I could not work out if they had been grilled, fried or killed in a microwave. Stuffing, which was similar to a concrete bullet. One carrot and two parsnips concealed heavily in a bistro gravy to hide the underlying criminal allegation of a roast. The potatoes were not roasted and possibly heated by a hairdryer or a slower device. We've been doing this video for quite a while and it's safe to say we're pretty much over having a mid roast. But again, we're not going in there and bashing it straight away. If it's good, we'll let you know. I don't want this to be bad, but I'm not holding my breath. Let's get inside and try it. Right, we've sat down. One thing to note, I don't know why, but it's quite windy here. Don't know if just because we're up high, not sure. But the positive with this, the view is spectacular. It's a nice sunny day. Look at that. It's definitely beating the swan. That was a nice outdoor view. But this, you can see the boats, you hear some music. It's a very lovely building inside as well. Feels like it's got a lot of history. We've gone for an Aperol spritz, £12.95. I've gone for a glass of red wine. It was £9. That's for 175 mils, by the way. I'm happy with that. Now for the classic Sunday roast, you've got an option of beef, lamb, gammon, chicken, and then the plant-based option is butternut, kale, and apricot. The beef is going to set you back £24.95. That's going to be coming with roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, stuffing balls, roasted carrots, parsnips, red onions, cabbage, and a red wine and thyme jus. Lovely. One thing that I really, really do rate, and I don't know why more spots don't do this, I've just read the extras and I've seen upgrade to unlimited roast potatoes. And you're probably thinking, they're probably going to charge an extra £3 or £4 for that. A pound. That is... We haven't tried the roast potatoes yet because again, if they're terrible, why would you want unlimited terrible roast potatoes? But we'll see. Another thing, upgrade to unlimited Yorkshire puddings. A pound. So you could come here, get a beef roast, which bearing in mind £24.95. Okay, but you get the chicken for £23.95 and get unlimited roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings. The reviews were saying that the Yorkshire pudding resembled a frisbee, but let's see. Let's start with the positive first. Got some pigs in blankets. We're getting five of them. They're quite big. All right, they look chunky. All right, I'm happy with that. Yeah, what you'd expect. Fine with that, right? Actually, the sausage is a bit on the underdone side. I've been tucking into the red wine. No problems with this. A nice light red wine. Very easy drinking, £9. Happy with that. And now we need to get to the... I am going to judge it by its cover because the beef... I mean, come on. That looks tougher than... What is that? That is... I mean, they've kind of grilled it, but that's just... I mean, there was no option of how you want your beef. It's just pre-done. Then they chuck it on the grill. The roast potatoes. I mean, is there any crunch there? I mean, sure. I kind of understand what they're talking about, the Yorkshire pudding. Let's tuck in to the overcooked grilled beef. Oh, it's so bad. Cold. I think we've found the worst roast dinner. And it's such a shame because this is by far the nicest atmosphere. The staff and the service are okay. They're polite. They're fine. We weren't waiting ages for food. I just think it is a place you've just come for a drink. That's it. It's a pub that shouldn't do food. Again, on the pigs in blankets. The sausage is just a bit underdone. The bacon is good though. This is just craziness. The actual gravy's not bad, but it's just cold. Yeah, I think it's safe to say don't come here and spend a pound extra on unlimited roast potatoes because already judging by this. If you want to come for a carrot, come for a carrot. Right, Yorkshire pudding, which I don't know if that even classes as a Yorkshire pudding. Let's try. Yeah, criminal, criminal behaviour that. Let's try the concrete bullet of a stuffing. Oh my God, they weren't lying. God, I actually don't want to eat this. Mental, mental. I need a washer. We have for sure found the worst roast dinner, 100%. This is it. I don't think I've had a worse roast dinner than this. And honestly, I've tried your mum's roast. That is, it's so bad, I had to eat that again. My God, that is rocking. God, it actually scratches the throat going down. So, so far, beef is terrible. Potato's terrible. Yorkshire pudding is upsetting. Carrot's all right. Gravy's tasty, but cold. What else we got? Parsnip. Jeez, right, let's cut through the parsnip. It's like half cooked. I'm not, I don't even like exaggerate for the camera guys. This is shocking. Right, cabbage, cold. God, the beef is just, I guarantee if I gave that to my dog, he'd even look at it and go, nah mate, you're all right. Oh my God, it's insane. It's insane. I really wanted the reviews to not be true and come in here and be like, you know what? It's all right. I love the atmosphere. I love the drinks. The, you know, the unlimited roast potatoes that are dead, the unlimited Yorkshire puddings that are flat. I paid £24.95 for this. If you come in here, just come for a drink. Don't even look at the menu. Right, I'm going to say, we're going to cut to a dessert. I don't want to. I kind of want to get out of here, neck the drink and get out. Of course it's all edible. I'm not going to be dramatic in that sense. It's just, you're paying money and it's dry and scratching your throat. I'm going to leave it with a sore throat. Right, let's get a sticky toffee. We've ordered the sticky toffee pudding. It's £8.95. Some things have happened in that time. A lovely guy that works here named Gabriel said that he watches the videos. They said, is everything okay? I was like, yes, everything's okay. And in my head, I can't tell him that I know he's going to watch this video and see this. He's going to know that I wasn't telling him the truth. But again, it's not his fault. He's a lovely guy. Bear in mind, I'm going in eating this with that in mind, okay? I don't want to let Gabriel down, but that ain't a sticky toffee pudding. I've got to be honest. I'm sorry, mate. It's just sugary stodge. There's no dates in it. Syrup is just crazy sweet. I've got some micro greens on there for some reason. I don't even know what it is. I don't, I don't even know what it is. It's like a hot carrot cake with the most intense sweet syrup over it. The creme fraiche isn't melting. I don't know why. That's just like... Gabriel, I'm sorry if you're watching this. I can't tell you how guilty and bad I feel. We have to be honest. It's not your fault. You're a lovely, lovely guy. But hands down, that is the worst roast dinner I've ever had in my whole entire life. I will never be back. And I think we achieved this video. We did find the worst roast dinner. And I didn't expect it to be this one. If you come here for a drink, it's 100% worth coming on a nice sunny day. It's a lovely area. There's loads of other brilliant restaurants, I'm sure. You just don't come here for the food. Don't come here for the food. Terrible sticky toffee pudding as well. It wasn't a sticky toffee pudding. It was a sugar syrup carrot cake. Anyway, guys, thank you so much for watching this video. I will see you next week. Peace out. Later.
