Family meal for my birthday. Setting is lovely but food was only ok, not hot enough.

I was excited to have lunch here after not visiting for years but unfortunately it is not what it used to be. The service was great, our server was friendly and served us fast which was great as we didn't have a lot of time and we were starving. We ordered a selection of the starters and sharing plates, all but one were almost inedible. Me and my partner can't remember ever having a meal this bad, it did not feel like eating food prepared by a trained chef or food that has been taste tested before. The price was extortionate, for 8.95 you get 6 extremely weedy stems of asparagus with a giant slop of 'hollandaise' which tasted more like a badly made unseasoned cheese sauce with absolutely no hint of lemon, and then topped with more cheese - it was disgusting. 'Triple' cooked chips were barely once cooked, koftas were overcooked and tasteless with a tiny amount of raita and desperately in need of something like pomegranate molasses to give some depth, soup was awful with no taste and the whitebait was not enjoyable with only a tiny sprinkle of paprika so no flavour other than very fishy and not as crispy as you would hope. The sesame pork bites were really good, and after sharing my concerns with our server I learned these were from the old menu and the rest a new menu, hopefully they go back to the old menu or take more care over what they're doing now because it was a really terrible meal. Our bill was just under 50 (just one soft drink and one beer besides the food) which made it feel so much worse that it was so bad, for that price we could have had a really amazing meal at countless other places. It's a shame as the location of Chester fields is great, the service is great, the decor is nice and the food used to actually be edible.
