Thanking you for saying the bar staff were friendly the team have worked extremely hard on improving their customer service so it is nice for them to be appriciated.
Car parking is an issue, hopefully they will be addressing when we have our refurb for the time being we have employed a car park attendent who works at peak times trying to stop people parking in our car park and going to Bicester Village shopping.

One of our assistant managers is now running the kitchen as i agree before we took over a lot of our complaints were generated by the food quality but with a new menu, new leadership and a LOT of new kitchen equipment in there (including 4 new chefs) we have recieved good feedback from customers who have before hand recieved poor quality food and with the price you pay (6.99 for 10z steak for example) we still believe it offers good value

I agree with you saying the pricing for drinks is expensive unfortunately there is nothing we in house can do about it as all the prices are banded by Greeneking. (You'd think in a recession they would be lowering them...?)
Hopefully the next time you come in you will stay for more than a drink and we can change your perception of a "bottom sector" pub
Regards
