Maes Knoll Toby Carvery, Bristol

Yesterday at this establishment I had possibly the worst pub meal I have ever suffered.

I ordered fillet of salmon (not cheap at �8-�9). I was told it was 'on the deck', which seemdd to mean I had to go to the carvery to get it when it was ready. (I hadn't ordered from the carvey as it was 6pm and hardly being used - a group of 4 had done so and ended up leaving most of their meals). The salmon was on its own on the plate, looking very unappetising, and I had to get the (stewed) vegeatbles and (over-cooked) potatoes from the carvey. The salmon was tasteless and, to top it all, on ordering the trifle dessert, I discovered this too was tasteless and watery. Never again!

(I guess that if you go at a busy time and then use the carvery, things may be different but the food choice is so limited you have little alternative at whatever time you go.)
