The Smugglers, Milford on Sea

After a long day on the Isle of Wight we stupidly chose the Smugglers Inn for our evening meal - BIG mistake - lady told us to wait 5 minutes for table to be cleared and lovely waiter was attentive but seemed harrassed - took order after acceptable length of time but then after 1 and a half hours and still no food with my elderly parents and young daughter getting desperate for food we were told that the food order had not been passed to the kitchen and therefore our food wasn't anywhere near ready...in this time we had watched others around us being served starters, mains, desserts, coffees and even after dinner nightcaps "on the house" - there was NO effort made by staff at all including from the lady who appeared to be in charge to rectify their cock-up so we left. Fish & Chips from local chippy were FANTASTIC.
