A good Sunday roast; overall, is my favourite meal. The Harwood Arms has been on my restaurant radar for several years. I finally made a booking and waited 3 months. The entire experience was good, but the cost was not justified. Nice restaurant still maintaining a pub feel, the décor is great. Our group of 3 shared a venison scotch egg just to try. You can’t really go wrong with a warm scotch egg with a runny yolk and it didn’t disappoint. I started with the venison pate en croute. Nothing special, but good enough. Now down to the main, which I had waited years for. Had to go with the beef and as I feared, it is more of steak than a roast. As good as the beef was, I’d prefer a couple of slices of top quality roasted prime rib. The potatoes were good, albeit coated in some type of batter or flour to ensure crispiness. The Yorkshire Pudding was okay, although I’ve had better in pubs charging less than £20. The gravy, arguably the most important part of a roast, was average. The vegetables were bland, some broccolini and a giant carrot to share, nothing special at all. Pudding was a mandarin trifle, although it wasn’t a trifle, more of a sundae. Once I got over it not being a trifle, it was nice. Lovely flavour of cloves or cardamon. Service was okay. The gentleman that seated us needs to cheer up. The lady that served us most of the time was excellent. Bonus points (from the restaurant, not me) for pouring the wine at a rapid rate. The mission being for us to polish off a bottle before the mains arrived and order another. Sorry… not at those prices. The wine was typically overpriced with a 300-350% markup. Along with a couple of other drinks each and the service charge, we paid almost £150 a head. This exorbitant cost would have been cushioned if I’d walked away from a memorable meal, but sadly not to be.
