Re: Old Mother Redcap
Just come back... not so good this time: there was blood and rather a lot of it on the base of the turkey... so I had beef which was ok and the veg and yorkshires ( well you could eat them just ) so its gone down since last time I went... that said £3.50 you get what you pay for:

Re: Old Mother Redcap
iv'e been a few times too & can't fault it either, the cooks & staff are under a loads of pressure in that job, but must agree magpie i wouldn't have had the turkey either, but i would have complained there & then to the manager.

Re: Old Mother Redcap
we did mention it... and he then went on to cut the meat from the other side... and using the same knife: like I said the price is cheap so you get what you pay for: that said I have also paid shed loads at other places and had rubish food... just put me off the turkey : these things happen it would not put me off going again ( but I will make sure I look at the meat closely)

Re: Old Mother Redcap
Please note that if you take any vegetarians it will cost them six quid for the veggie option.
Childrens carvery is 3.25
My daughter was sick twice in the night (on me as well) but we don`t eat that kind of food very often.
I didn`t enjoy it enough to bother again.
`tis cheap tho

Re: Old Mother Redcap
I think the carvey is quite good , not the best but you cant beat it for £3.50 on a saturday! We always have takeaway on a friday and i seem to go and get a meal from mcdonalds the carvery is the same price as a mcdonalds meal and id rather eat the carvery then a mcdonalds so end up going there instead now.

Re: Old Mother Redcap
10 of us just been, everyone thought it was very good, also brilliant value,whilst it aint my favourite place, no complaints, very shorted staffed,but those who were working were first rate.

Re: Old Mother Redcap
Been several times now, had the odd ropey bits but for £3.50 you aint gonna get perfection everytime. Give staff their due, always friendly & there to please & always been asked at some time thru meal if everything ok. There are other carveries around but u will pay a lot more for em.
