The Prince Albert Inn, Uxbridge

I went there with my girlfriend today Sunday 13th Sept 2009. The customers are mostly pensioners. I was pre-warned by friends that the old man doing the carvery is quirky / eccentric but I was shocked and disgusted by his derogothery comments and insults within earshot of my girlfriend and other customers today. I will not be giving my custom to this establishment again. Avoid unless you enjoy being insulted by a rude old man.
Basically I researched this on the internet and found it was a carvery and when we went there we assumed it was a carvery also. However I was hungry and as is usual for a carvery my understanding is you are entitled to go back for a second serving of vegatables etc but not the meat should you wish, as that is only carved once.
Well there were only 8-9 customers there and the old man was not at the carvery when I went back for more veg etc so I just helped myself to some yorkshire puddings and potatoes and as I was walking back to my table he was returning to the carvery and within earshot of most customers said to me did I help myself to more meat? I replied no of course not...he then said indirectly to me by way of speaking to one of the pensioners that looks like he helped himself to a second meal and that people should not go for a second serving. Perhaps as 95% of his customers are pensioners and do not have the appetites of younger people and it was his first time seeing someone go back for more vegatables?
I did not rise to the bait as my girlfriend was with me but boy if I was there on my own or with some of my male friends I would have put him in his place very quickly. As it is I shall simply never be returning to that place to get insulted again. There is a Toby carvery in Langley which I will go to next time.
