The Plough, Stalisfield

Awful! Avoid! Booked for Sunday lunch as an alternative to our normal haunts. Place looked great with good beers and wines � but then it all went wrong. Fresh mussels were obviously not cooked from live (or very overcooked), Childs main course arrived with adult starters (apparently what the chef prefers but we were not asked), the bread and oil ordered arrived after the starters. The steaks arrived overcooked and were returned � waitress then requested our definition of rare & medium rare as apparently the Chef was of the opinion that it varies(!?). Roast potatoes hard in the middle and meat overcooked. When asked if everything was �okay� our dissatisfaction was explained to the waitress who proceeded to walk off as we were speaking. Manager tried her best and offered steaks FOC but all in all a ruined Sunday lunch. Apparently the owners were away on holiday!!
