We experienced outstanding service from Chelsea 🥇 on a midweek lunchtime. I enjoyed a beautiful burger with pork belly and some nice cheese in it. Well done, The Angler!

We had wanted to visit for ages and finally got the opportunity last Saturday. We had booked a table online but was running late, so we had to amend the booking, which was no issue at all and very easy to do. Upon arrival, we walked in and weren't sure whether to just sit at a table or not, so we just kind of loitered in the entrance. There were a number of people that appeared to be staff stood talking at the end of the bar, a waitress who was back and forth and a lady behind the bar but no-one qreeted or acknowledged us so we felt a little awkward. Eventually, when I asked the lady behind the bar what to do, we were shown to the table. We had been when it was the orbis, so we were happy sitting in the conservatory and already liked the decor/style, so once seated, we relaxed. We were given a paper menu, but unfortunately, it didn't have the drinks on it, so when the waitress came to take our order, we weren't sure what they did. She turned the menu over, but it was a blank page, but she quickly got us a new one. We couldn't decide what to go for, so the waitress offered her recommendations, which helped us come to a decision (thankfully as i think we'd still be sat there lol!) and we chose a classic burger (og?), the flintstone, the buffalo wings and a side of mac n cheese along with two milkshakes. The food came out in record time....infact it was there before the milkshakes. It all arrived hot and beautifully executed. The burgers were absolutely gorgeous! The flintstone was soooo tasty, and i really liked that it didn't all fall to bits in your hand. You could actually eat it without getting in a mess. Even the classic just melted in your mouth. The chips were perfectly seasoned, and we were surprised to learn that they were only half a portion as there were loads! The wings were lush. The sauce had the right amount of heat and a good balance of cheese. The only thing we were underwhelmed with was the mac n cheese, as despite looking gorgeous, we found it to be a little bland, but that may just be down to our preference. We had clearly ordered way more than we could eat, but the waitress was more than happy to get us boxes so we could take home a doggy bag. All in all, we enjoyed the food and overall experience......especially being able to relive our childhoods playing Street fighter & Pacman before we left. (We would have given the full 5 stars had it not have been for the awkwardness on arrival and would have only taken half a star off for that but unfortunately, Google doesn't allow halves so we went with 4)
