My husband and myself attended the Plough for Sunday lunch. The food (fish & chips & Roast Beef) were fine albeit pretty expensive. Certainly nothing to make one 'one's mouth water - just ok.(Typical pub grub). The receptionist on the desk did not give the best impression on walking into the pub. (She was swigging from a bottle and her dress (denim shorts etc) looked far from professional. The table was 'sticky' and I asked for it to be wiped but was told the Manager had tried to lacquer the tables during Covid and basically left them in a sticky disposition and that was some 5 years ago! I myself am in hospitality and I definitely would not have allowed a member of my staff to appear so unprofessional at front of house, and as for the tables, I certainly would have rectified the situation well before now - even if funds prevented new tables, I would have used a table cloth or table mats at the very least. The member of staff that served us said we should use the menus as table mats as the tables were so sticky!! I suggested she speak to the Manager about either using a cloth or use mats on the table and her response was "we have, but he doesn't listen"! I rest my case - poor management!!! All things considered particularly in light of what you are charging for a Sunday lunch, I would have grave misgivings in recommending your establishment or returning.
