Had a very disappointing meal at the Green Dragon on Saturday.
The staff, welcome and the place itself could not be faulted it�s purely the output from the Kitchens which was very poor.
Starters were way �over micro-waved� my cheese sauce had separated into two different colour liquids and one brown solid. My wife�s main �Hunters Chicken� was a square of processed cheese stuck to the plate with a piece of burnt chicken on it.
The kitchen forgot the vegetables, when this was realised we were told �they will take 5 minutes or so do you still want them�

>>"This pub has gone - another casulty of the smoking ban. We may all live >>longer now with nothing to do!!"
It had absolutely nothing to do with the smoking ban. This was a planned closure, sale & planning application by new owners which has taken over 12 months to complete.

This pub has improved massively for two reasons.
1.The smoking ban. This was a notoriously smokey pub with low ceilings. As previously stated most smokers used to hog the bar. The difference is just amazing and it�s an absolute pleasure to sit in a quaint country pub without thick smoke and your clothes stinking when you leave.
2.The departure of the landlord called Alistair. (see below)

Totally agree with Stretfordlad. Just to reiterate, the smokers who hog the Bar are not from the local area. They have just claimed the place and appear to everyone as locals.
Last weekend I attempted to get served in the only gap between them and some clown lit a pipe and smoked me out. Bring on the smoking ban, not long now!

Very cliquey, landlord served someone he knew over my shoulder who clearly arrived after me. The impression is that this is a locals pub but in fact the �locals� who sit at the bar and don�t move for you to get served are largely from a council estate a mile or two away. (nothing wrong with that, but its true)
The beer is good but the food is very average.

We have been back to the Green Dragon several times this year (2011) and had a good meal with excellent service.
