    We honestly hated it. All 6 of us. Oh Hardly anyone was in the pub on a Saturday which should’ve been a sign right there. The waitress seemed like she didn’t wanna be there. The food was awful and not worth the prices that were charged. Never going back.

    3 of us had chicken strips/fries. The chicken was thin, dry and way over cooked and hard to chew. The sticky toffee pudding for dessert was the best part. Our waitress was good and very friendly.

    Have been to the buck many times. Quality and service has gone way down. Went for a birthday brunch. Had to send all of our food back. Cold and overdone This has happened last few visits. Either we had issues with the food or it was the service. Wont be back

    we had friends in from out of town and thought this would be a safe restaurant given who owns them, boy was I wrong. The food was terrible, three of the four dishes we ordered had to be remade. The chicken strips were burnt, A steak sandwich was not good, the first time they forgot to even toast, the garlic bread, and the biggest problem was that we had someone in our party who couldn’t have pork products on the burger they ordered so we asked them to remove the bacon when we ordered. They delivered it with bacon, we mentioned it to them and their initial solution was to take the bacon off the burger and deliver it right back to the table. I expected So much more from this restaurant, very disappointed. All I could do was apologize profusely to my out-of-town guests for how bad it was.

    This was a great night out and enjoyed the Wednesday night jam a lot! We had fish and chips, tacos, and salads, which were all great. The service however was very slow and had to wait a very long time for our bill. Our empty dishes were never cleared away from our table after eating so we sat there with them for the remainder of the evening.

    Friday “prime rib dinner special” was inedible. The meat was unfit as it was so tough you could barely cut it with a knife.
