The Beckford Inn, Beckford

I read a couple of interesting comments on this place on another review site, and my boyfriend and I decided to visit the other week for lunch on a regular business trip to Birmingham from our home in Somerset.

I must admit that I was quite unimpressed with our whole experience, from the girl (quite rude in my opinion) behind the bar seeming more interested in talking to other local individuals/ family/ friends than serving new customers visiting the establishment for the first time, to the food that just didn't seem to be of a standard that I had heard about.
The drinks were pricey, and the bar area seemed dirty/ tired (maybe they do not have a cleaner), but I cannot say that I thought this establishment to be anywhere near a food quality award as seemed to be the view of other reviews on the other review site.
Maybe we just visited them on an 'off day'.

Very disappointed and will not visit again, as customer service in our opinion is equally as important as the food they serve.
