Torbay, United Kingdom

Meat • Coffee • Chicken • Breakfast


"I decided to have breakfast in this restaurant this morning whilst staying locally, but what a mistake wish now I'd of gone to McDonald's who couldn't of done any worse for a fraction of the price I paid for utter garbage! I was initially...welcomed by the server after waiting to be seated by the sign, I ordered the Eggs Benedict a large americano coffee, I asked for cream but was told they only do milk which was disappointing to hear, then 5mins after making my order a sales rep, (I think he was) who was sitting near me got up firing questions at the man cooking for almost 10mins about supplies brands stressing me about the quality of my poached eggs, when my food did arrive, it looked ok but when I cut into an egg yolk it was hard, I got the waitress'es attention who asked if I wanted fresh eggs, that's when the attitude started. She came back seconds later obviously after informing the cook asked me exactly how did I want them cooked as they're already quite running, SERIOUSLY the one I cut into was solid, I asked for runny but when the food finally came back to me, i didn't realize I would be having the same muffin that had now gone stone cold soggy, the bacon was now I tiny bit of what I previously had but NOT the crispy bit, just a small fatty grissly bit was returned to me, the eggs literally separating by being now undercooked barely warm with splatters of cold sauce around it, (NOT a hollindaise taste), absolutely disgusting a complete waste of almost £10, if you can't take constructive criticism cook food correctly, then DON'T be in business, AND don't be a cheapskate to use the original bits of a returned meal thinking the customer wouldn't notice, disgraceful quality standards attitude!"

The Fox Inn

The Fox Inn

Great Ryton, Dorrington, Shropshire, United Kingdom

Steak • Vegan • Chicken • Vegetarian


"The Fox inn is situated on a bend in Great Ryton, just minutes walk away from where we were staying. The owners really couldn’t do any more to avoid any spread of Covid as there are sanitisers and signage as well as floor markings and...of course, table service much to the sarcastic delight of the wonderful curmudgeonly landlord who greeted us. The menu includes vegan, gluten free and vegetarian options and it reliably informs the reader that an allergen listing is available on request, so all bases are surely covered there. Spicy pork bites as a starter which was served in a sticky honey and soy glaze. Tasty but rather messy. For mains we opted for the vegetarian platter and rack of ribs. Be prepared as the vegetarian platter is basically deep fried. Garlic mushrooms, chips, chilli beer battered halloumi fingers with garlic bread a small olive feta bowl. All tasty but a bit of salad would’ve been welcomed. The rack of ribs were “fall off the bone meaty” served with red slaw and chips. Interestingly enough this dish came with a small side salad, when it wasn’t really needed. Also, rather much needed a finger cleansing bowl and extra napkins, which we thought was a nice touch. Not being put off by the huge amount of calories we’d obviously already imbibed, we chose the Bakewell tart and ice cream and a salted caramel and fudge ice cream sundae. Beware! The sundaes are huge but then at they should be, though worth every sweet mouthful!"
