Ye White Hart, Barnes

Brilliant location, right by the river, brilliant if your out walking or cycling along the path by the river.

The service was rude. The bar manager must of had a hangover or something!

treated myself to a steak.... was terribly cooked, also there griddle needs a good clean as it left my steak tasting of a horrid burnt taste which tasted like s**t.

Just another crappy Fullers pub.

The Commercial, Herne Hill

Notice this pub on a few visits to Herne hill and thought we (Me & the girlfriend) would give it a try for a Sunday roast.

Good selection of drink (european lagers, real ales and cider) happy to see. very expensive.

The menu tries to lure you into a false sense of security with its Marks and spencer advert style descriptions of pretty standard dinners. We both went for the roast beef, came to �30 for 2 small cokes and 2 roast beefs. Quite pricey, hopefully the food will make up for it........

Out it came, 3 overcooked potatoes, pretty sure they hadnt been in a oven. they were mushy like they had been boiled?! The 3 slithers of beef where overcooked and had quite obviously been sitting on a hot plate for to long, yorkshire pudding was burnt, and the veg over boiled. Basically it was quite a tragic small and exspensive roast.

I did send it back, explained what was wrong and also asked for more. kindly it returned the same, with an extra mushy potato and some extra carrots!

I do not expect for much. A Roast dinner, is a pretty easy meal to get right.

there goes my hard earned cash in return for a stingy portoin of badly cooked food. I cant help feel slightly robbed.
