The Goat's Toe

I've been going to the Goat's Toe for years, I like it's vibe, the upstairs seating and beer garden, and it does a decent feed too. However this week we popped in on May Day, my first visit in a while. We hadn't placed a reservation but were quickly sat down at a window booth. Initial attention was quick and friendly, and we ordered a meat platter to split between two of us, along with some fries. Unfortunately it took just under an hour for food to be served from the moment of ordering. We'd been discussing the delay and getting ready to leave when the food arrived. Delays happen, but while I overheard staff apologize to other customers for the delay, nothing was said to us. And our platter arrived without the blue cheese dip and celery for the chicken wings. Once we requested it the dip arrived at least. The food itself was good, not too excessively priced, a mix of chicken, ribs and wings. Very tasty. But the service did rather mar things a bit - not least as I had brought along a first timer to the venue. Hasn't put me off returning, I've eaten here before and not had a problem - but I will be wary of further delays.
