The Windmill on the Common, Clapham Common

What a shame.

Last year, this was the place to be in Summer; the location is great, the atmosphere good and nice food.

I don't know if the management has changed, but this year; it's really gone down hill.

The food is terrible and very overpriced. There's just no thought put into it, flavours that don't go together at all which just end up tasting of nothing.
In fact, two of our party were actually ill the day after.

The service is some of the worst I've ever experienced and that's saying a lot. It would be better if they didn't have any and just had an "order at the bar" setup...

In all, if you want a place to drink a cold one with some mates during the summer, then this is still a good place to hang out; but whatever you do, don't eat there!

I really hope they turn this around soon as it really is a sad loss of what was a great all-rounder.

Until then, they should stop trying to pretend to be a serious high quality restaurant and just concentrate on being a good pub.

Very disappointed.
