OK guys calm down....

back to the subject of this thread, the RT. I've been in there a couple of times now. The manager and staff seem very friendly and keen to please, the interior is nice, the place is clean.
However the food did leave something to be desired... we went for an evening meal and I wasn't overly impressed. The food was average and for the prices charged I would expect something more. The food and sides didn't come all at the same time, and the dessert was obviously frozen and bought in - and £5 for a slice....

The manager was very attentive so I can't fault that, but I think they are trying to go for an up-market menu, but not hitting the spot, probably not an experienced chef, or cutting corners on ingredients - just guessing here. I am not a food snob, personally I'd rather the menu was simpler and cheaper but nicer.

(I can't comment on the 'men at the bar' as I didn't have an issue - unlike a recent experience at the Hob.....)

So overall, the RT is nice inside, it's good to have another choice of pub, and I will definitely return again for a drink, but not for a meal.
