The Duke of York, Ganwick Corner

We went again - good play area for the kids - and reasonably safe and secure. Interesting tactic though - you order your food at the bar - and the starters and the main course all brought out together - what sort of dimwit thought that one up.

The food order was wrong, the food was decidedly average - though had worked this out when saw the menu was immense - and felt sorry for the kitchen staff who must have to microwave everything - must have been at least 20 starters so you can imagine how vast it was. Saying that our meal was pub priced and �37 for two mains and the "bit of everything" platter "aka how much fried food can you have on one large plate".

The garden is nice and set back although is on the A1000. Food is nothing special but you get what you pay for.

Shame whenever I go here they never seem to get it right, which deters me from repeat custom.

The Square, Barnet

I think its been renamed again. Went in a few months ago - the music was too loud or maybe im old. Full of nouveau riche/nouveau riche wannabes with short dresses and all miraculously blonde and had orange skin. Probably nice if you like that sort of thing - but not much cop if you are over 30
