Pub called out for serving the ‘worst ever’ Sunday roast that’s ‘not even fit for a dog’

A pub’s £11 roast dinner has been publicly slandered this week for its dry meat and sorry selection of overcooked vegetables.

The roast looked so bad, in fact, that one social media user even went as far to say it’s not even fit for a dog. Yeah, it was that bad. 

The ‘Turkey and Beef Duo Sunday Roast’ was served at the Greene King owned Channings Hotel in Bristol, and cost one unimpressed diner a grand total of £11.79.

In a photo shared by the diner’s mum on Twitter, the roast consisted of three overcooked roast potatoes, one small – and burned – piece of cauliflower cheese, a strangely shaped chunk of stuffing in a Yorkshire pudding and slices of dry meat.

The woman, known as WelshGirlAbroad on Twitter, wrote alongside the photo: “So this is what Greene King serves by way of award-winning roast dinner at Channings in Bristol.

“She was with three friends. They didn’t like to complain, thought they’d be assumed to be students trying it on. They’d had to pay in advance on an app. I’ve seen better in hospital.”

Twitter users were less than impressed by the sorry-looking roast, with one person writing: “That is one of the worst meals I have ever seen. Wow.”

Another questioned: “What. Is. That? Do they think you (1) can’t see and (2) have no appetite?”

However, the unimpressed mum followed up her tweet with a somewhat positive update, explaining that the pub had reached out to her daughter to apologise.

She wrote: “Update: pub has been in contact with [sic] Jnr. They’ve offered a drinks voucher to the value of the meals (they drink there anyway, so that’s fine) and a free roast.

“All’s well that ends well. Thanks @greenekingcares for dealing promptly.”

A spokesperson for the Channings Hotel added: “Unfortunately the roast dinner served to our customer was not to the usual standard we strive to provide to all of our customers. We are currently looking into what happened to ensure this does not happen again.

“We have already spoken to our customer directly to apologise and offered to welcome them back for another meal so we can make it up to them.”
