We eat out 2-3 days a week and are always looking for somewhere new to go.So last thursday i thought it a good idea to visit the punch bowl at pagelsham essex where we used to go to eat years ago.What a mistake? We ordered our meal at 8.15 and at 9.20 I asked the waitress if 'she had caught my fish yet'I was told they hadn't taken enough skate out of the freezer.About 9.30 it arrived to find the order was wrong and chips were served instead of Jacket potatoes for my wife.This was corrected and we started to eat our meal to find the chips I had were not fresh and tasted awful.The fish was mushy and had no taste. There was no apology for the wait and the waitress said the chips were fresh,but they were not .The Manager wasn't even aware we were there because he never acknowledged us at any time.the table next to us had the same treatment after ordering bubble and squeak they received chips.We were pleased to get out of there never to visit again. I can only assume they must be new owners,or people that are ready to give it all up.P.Tregunno.
