HS&Co Stratford

Me and my friend both got the set menu with a starter, main and dessert, plus mojitos on the side (mine strawberry, hers classic) the drinks were really good. Service at first wasn’t great, the woman serving us didn’t seem welcoming at all, felt like we were bothering her. Later a man took over and he was really nice and polite, so that helped. Food-wise… not good. I got prawns for my starter and they were burnt along with the sauce and it smelt really bad. The head and tail was still on, which I wasn’t expecting. My friend said her mac and cheese tasted like it was from the freezer. For mains we both got roast dinners, she had turkey and I had beef. The potatoes had a weird aftertaste and no seasoning, veggies were plain, beef was a bit chewy. Dessert was meant to be apple crumble, but it wasn’t apple, it was berries instead (they didn’t tell us) and mine was still cold at the bottom. You can tell most of it came from a freezer, which isn’t the end of the world, but at least cook it properly. Overall, really disappointing for the price, we paid around £80 and honestly, wouldn’t recommend.
