The Buckinghamshire Yeoman, Bedgrove

Went to the Bucks Yeoman last Christmas, ordered a meal which turned out to be Chicken Tikka Masala but without the chicken !!!! It was replaced but where did they get the uncooked chicken from, as all the meals come pre-packed. I gave it one last try at Easter and ordered a steak, I waited and waited and waited and then asked. The "meal" was eventually thrown at my table and it was obvious that it had been cooked, left out for vthe flies in the kitchen for 15 minutes and then brought out by one of the staff in the understaffed bar. It was cold, greasy with cold chips and shrivelled peas. It was impossible to sit anywhere neart the toilet access doors due to the overpowering smell of dozens of disenfectant blocks in in urinals. I have made complaints to the pub group management before about the pub and received a reply about "maintaining our high standards" and "re-training programmes" being carried out but I couldn't see any evidence of it., which is a shame because the pub has many good amenities and is very well sited to be a success.
