Feel bad because it's so popular, but the Guinness stew was so salty it was inedible, the scotch egg was mediocre, the vegetarian pasta was essentially noodles with a chunk of Parmesan cheese thrown on top, and the Reuben was so so. Definitely not eating there again.

The food was good and the St. James Gate Guinness Beef Stew was absolutely amazing as always. However, the only problem with the order is that the order was not complete.
I ordered multiple containers of the Potato Leek Soup however they were not delivered. This has happened before. Please fix the issue of short delivering especially if it is paid for

Brie came without the french baguette which is used to dip into and eat the cheese; Caesar dressing was very runny& not very tasty. Lettuce had brown edges; Salad was room temp despite restaurant only being 3 blocks away.

They could figure out different packaging for the dishes. Getting a cottage pie in a styrofoam container is not the best.
