I
have
to
rate
this
place
as
honestly
as
I
can
and
I
hate
giving
places
a
1*
but
I
really
did
feel
that
the
food
we
had
at
the
Codrington
Arms
was
very
poor.
My
partner
and
I
have
both
been
to
the
Codrington
Arms
in
the
past
and
we
thought
we
would
go
there
for
a
spot
of
dinner
as
it
had
some
good
reviews
on
here.
We
arrived
at
the
Codrington
about
18:05
and
it
was
practically
empty.
We
were
seated
in
the
restaurant
area
and
immediately
asked
if
we
would
like
any
drinks
to
which
I
ordered
a
Bloom
Strawberry
Gin
Liquer
and
tonic
(£5.20)
and
my
partner
ordered
a
pint
of
Doombar
(£3.65).
We
ordered
a
starter
to
share
of
Warm
Crusty
Bread
with
Balsamic
Dipping
Oil
(£3)
normally
we
love
this
as
a
starter
but
when
this
came
out
and
I
tasted
it
I
actually
thought
it
was
horrible.
The
bread
was
just
a
part-baked
baguette
which
you
can
pick
up
for
around
40-50p
at
local
supermarkets
and
the
oil
was
absolutely
awful.
I
had
one
bite
of
the
bread
with
the
oil
and
I
couldn't
eat
any
more.
I
have
no
idea
what
the
oil
was,
it
certainly
wasn't
Olive
Oil
and
it
just
tasted
like
grease,
it
was
honestly
horrible.
There
was
a
bit
of
a
wait
after
our
starter
came
out
until
our
mains
came
out.
We
both
ordered
a
burger
as
it
was
their
burger
offer
which
was
two
burgers
for
£15.
I
had
the
Ellie
Burger
and
my
partner
had
the
Paulie
Burger
with
an
added
breaded
chicken
breast
fillet
for
£2.
When
the
mains
came
out
it
did
look
nice
but
again
as
soon
as
I
tasted
the
food
I
was
really
disappointed.
The
chips
were
also
horrible,
again
they
just
tasted
like
grease
as
if
they
were
cooked
in
really
cheap
oil
and
they
had
just
absorbed
that.
The
burger
was
ok
but
wasn't
brilliant,
it
just
tasted
a
bit
bland
and
the
pulled
pork
was
a
bit
disappointing.
The
chicken
breast
I
had
in
my
burger
was
ok
but
the
one
my
partner
had
wasn't
a
nice
piece
of
chicken
at
all.
Overall
the
service
was
good
but
the
food
really
really
let
this
place
down.
The
best
thing
about
the
meal
for
me
was
the
gin
and
tonic.
We
didn't
bother
with
a
dessert
as
we
were
really
unimpressed
with
the
starter
and
mains.
There
would
have
to
be
a
serious
improvement
in
the
quality
of
food
if
I
was
to
go
back
to
the
Codrington
Arms
again.
It's
a
shame
as
this
is
a
nice
local
pub
with
a
spacious
garden
and
restaurant
area
and
the
staff
are
friendly
and
welcoming.
