Sir Henry Gurnett, Aveley

Avoid this place at all costs. Service is unbelievably slow. So slow in fact that we got tired of waiting and after 40 minutes, wrote the order out ourselves.
When service did arrive it was shoddy and lacked charm. The wine we ordered was just plonked on the table but not even opened.
Food when it eventually arrived was luke-warm, tasteless and a meal for one of our party was missing.
We summoned the owner and the excuse given was that the chef was new as they had leant their chef to another restaurant!!.
No soap in the gent�s toilets. (Your guess is as good as mine as to what the kitchen staff did after visiting.) When we asked the owner about this he blamed the cleaners and said he would sort it out tomorrow. This was at 4pm in the afternoon.
We paid only for drinks and walked out. We will not be visiting again.
