| My husband and I went to The Huntsman on Saturday evehning at 5.10pm to find the door shut and the place in darkness. After looking at the blackboard by the entrance door it stated meals weren served from 6-9pm. We returned shortly after 6pm. We had a meal there a few months ago and really enjoyed it which is why after cutting a voucher for £5.00 off the entire bill if 2 people ordered 2 meals from the main menu we decided to return. When entering the bar we asked the young man behind the bar if we could have a table in the resturant he said he would get a waitress to show us to a table. A young girl came to us and handed us a laminated piece of A4 paper with a few choices of starters, main meals and side orders written on it saying meals served from 5-9pm! On looking at the menu we were dissapointed to find the menu was much smaller and did not have the Lamb shank which I wanted the last time we visited but was sold out, nor did it have chicken in stilton sauce which is the dish I had last time. When I asked the girl if it was the bar menu she had handed to us she said no but thinks the menu has been chnaged recently because they are trying to find out what people like to eat and so have narrowed the menu down a bit.... We were left to sit in the bar area and had our order taken but were not offered to a table in the resturant at this point. When the food was ready we were then seated to a table in the very empty resturant area, there was only 1 other couple seated in there. Another coupled were sitting at a table in the bar and 3 lad were playing on the fruit machine in the bar area. We chose a combo to share which on presentaion was very good and tasted good too. My husband had ordered the Gammon and I ordered chicken Tikka Masala with half chips,half rice and naan bread. Whilst eating our starter we saw a female chef walk through the resturant into an area at the top and get a frozen pizza and take it into the kitchen. When we had finished our starter we waited patiently for our main course to arrive. Whilst waiting we saw the same chef go to the freezer again and get a lot more food from the freezer....This concerned us slightly because we thought the food was made fresh. After a ittle while the young waitress came to our table and said to me I am really sorry but we dont have any Naan bread but chef said she can do you some garlic bread. Not very impressed but said this will be ok. When the food arrived my husbands gammon looked very nice but my chicken Tikka Masala was lacking in sauce. When asked if we would like any sauce my husband asked for tomato sauce and I asked for mango chutny to which the girl replied I dont think we have got any mango chutny but will check for you. A couple of minutes later she returned to say we haven't got any chutney but wev'e got plenty of tomato sauce....My husband said his gammon was nice but unfortunately the chicken in the masala sauce tasted very rubbery so I did't eat it. We then saw a male chef walk to where the freezer was and seemed to be doing lot of walking about as if he didnt know what he was going to do next. We were very dissapointed, the meal cost £22.85 without drinks, I was glad we had the voucher for £5.00. It is clear to see why they are enticing people to The Huntsman with vouchers but neadless to say we will not be returning. Concidering the returant opened at 6.pm they did not seem to have some the basic food items advertised on their small menu. [Report for Removal] | G+P Telford Shropshire |

| Recently Taken over by new Management approx May. Lovely food, presented professionally, well priced, good service, clean, recently redecorated tidy pub, friendly experienced staff. Good choice of local fayre and tasty food cooked fresh on the premises. Landlady Sreen has got it all right. It's so good we go twice a month every month![Report for Removal] | Samantha Telford Shropshire |

| We came to this pub for Sunday lunch. The service was the biggest problem. The staff consisted of well-meaning but hopelessly inexperienced teenagers. It felt as though the entire staff was on their first day. Delays, confusion, clumsiness - not calculated to put the diner at ease. Whilst the starters were actually very nice, the main course came in large plates swimming with overly salty gravy and huge portions of poorly carved meat. It should be added that the vegetables were very good. When we waned to pay at the end, person serving was unable to operate the till and had to enlist the assistance of a man who, from his attire, appeared to be the chef. They did not take cards of any kind, choosing instead to have an on-site ATM. He proceeded to tell us, at great length, why for him this makes financial sense. Fair enough - but as we edged towards the door we had to conclude that his apparent lack of interest in returning to the kitchen to expedite the orders of the remaining diners offered some clues as to how this state of affairs had come into being in the first place.[Report for Removal] | Alex Johnson Birminham England |
