   Service was slow, we ordered before 2 other tables but their food came out first and we had to ask where our starters were. Starters were disappointing but edible and we were starving by that point, had been sat for an hour by then. Once starters were cleared we waited another 30 minutes for the mains. When they came the food was shocking, we both had Double Cheese burgers, tiny burgers cooked until they were like rubber, one small blob of cheese was all I could find, chewy bacon, and a huge stale bun. Fries under cooked, coleslaw had large end slices of cabbage in. There were only 6 tables of people, 5 x 2 and 1 x 4. A third of the menu wasn’t available due to a missing delivery and the front of house staff consisted of 2, one of which was clearly new and nervous and the other looked like they’d lost the will to live. Oh, and the table next to us complained about their food too.

   Unfortunately when we visited, they were having problems in the kitchen where we waited over an hour for our starters. Asked the waitress if this would be the same for mains and she stated no it will be 5/10 mins so we waited and when it hit the 20 mins point we decided to just leave. We were offered a free round of drinks which was nice but we were so hungry at this point and some didn’t order a starter we just decided to order a takeaway back at home. Slightly disappointed as the food did look lovely but must have caught them on a bad day.

   Food tasted burnt, not worth the money. Asked for a cocktail as food was served and didn’t get it. Wasn’t happy at all as I had high expectations. Explained to waitress and gave us 10% off. Would not recommend!

   Very disappointed with the quality of food , seemed to be cheap cuts of meat , chicken wings were frozen not fresh , Salad corn and pickles were very nice, just a shame about the meat and expensive for what we had the sharing platter.

   I'm local to the area but this was my first visit to Fire & Fork and I just wish I'd gone there sooner. Even though the menu choices are a bit limited, what you get get is beautifully cooked food and presented really well. My quality sirloin steak was cooked just to my liking and all the trimmings were perfect. The service was great too. Really friendly staff and the room had a great ambience. It was very quiet on the night though, so I don't yet know how all that may change on a busier night. I hope they do get busier nights those because these guys need to stay in business. I certainly plan to go back there soon. Just a lovely meal where my high standards were met if not exceeded.

   Some food was nice and some was ok. We had the share platter and some other bits. The platter really was not worth the money. Did see a burger going to someone’s table which looked huge and tasty so would only ever go back to try that. Staff were fab though

   I asked if I would be allowed a well done steak as I know it upsets chefs, the delightful waiting staff implored that i could have my steak however I liked. The steak came out more overdone than. I have had a steak anywhere. Honestly feel this was a chef revenge steak. The steak was £28. Had very few chips with it. There was no weight listed to the menu but my guess it was only 8oz. I was expecting a large steak for this price. Drinks of one pint plus one coffee was over £9 also. Very expensive.

    Absolutely AWFUL. Service was terrible the moment we walked through the door. The manager is rude, disrespectful and shouldn’t be working in hospitality. The food was shocking for the price, unseasoned, tasted like garbage!! AVOID!!!!!
