Marlborough Arms (Fitzrovia)

• The building this pub is built into is old and beautiful
• The pub itself could definitely do with a bit of a renovation
• For that reason it may be more of a favourite of the lecturers rather than the student in this university area but there are a bunch of positives
• The food menu is good as they do good pub food quite well
• IT has big dining tables and grand furniture and it is a nice place to go so long as it hasn't been booked out
• The hollandaise sauce was bright orange &
• Very sweet hollandaise sauce is not supposed to be sweet overall a very confusing dish topped with a rubbery poach egg
• The roast potatoes were obviously frozen and were so dry they were inedible
• The stuffing was out of a packet &
• Obviously hadn't even been roasted and was stone cold
• It lacked so much flavour that it was more like eating stale bread
• It was surrounded by a white substance which was either custard or cream
• Overall this was probably the worst meal I've had the misfortune of eating this year
• After making a complaint I did receive a phone call from the area manager who was very apologetic and has refunded the entire meal
• The tables outside are nice in the summer and the staff is friendly
