"Family meal03/09/23 at The Hope Anchor pub, South Ferriby for a special occasion which was spoilt by the number of flies in the restaurant. I even had to ask a staff member if they had a fly swatter and they were going to fetch a fly zapper which never materialised. Whilst waiting for starters to arrive we had killed 3 flies. Starters were eaten off a slim piece of slate (as was the fish and chips main course) when a decent plate would have been better. I asked staff again if they had a fly swatter and another table was set up elsewhere in the pub, which was no different. Sat at the new table we killed a further 2 flies. The meal was spoilt by having to constantly bat flies out of the way, landing on our cutlery whilst trying to eat (had to grab spare from a neighbouring table). Main courses consisted of steaks, fish and chips and roast beef dinners with side dishes. Sadly, we could not eat all of the side dishes due to flies landing on them. The roast beef dinners were nothing special as the beef was chewy (I have cooked better myself) as was the steak on the bone but the fillet steaks and triple cooked chips were nice. It was not a pleasant dining experience at all and we declined to entertain dessert and any more drinks as we could not wait to leave. We would definitely not return or recommend this venue at all. Overall, very disappointed at what should have been a nice family occasion and the food was definitely NOT Michelin star quality."

"Awful meal and even worse service. A place where the customer is always wrong! Cold food, undercooked naan breads (which were not eaten), tomato sauce rather than Indian curry with no spice or tasty, and a shortage of meat for a dish being charged at £14-16 per curry (without any extras). When this was brought to the attention of the lady front of house, she wanted to argue that the food wasn’t cold and the two naan bread were cooked. Shouting at us in front of her other paying customers. However neither naan bread had even a slice out of them, may as well have been raw dough. When you can see your fingerprint in the naan, you know it’s undercooked. She said that’s how they come. However we have eaten there a few times before so this wasn’t the case! No service, or at best slow service from start to end. And nobody came to check how our food was, (now I guess we know why) so my partner went to say something. We visited here after having a nice meal the last time but after the disgusting way the staff spoke to us, the terrible food and total lack of service, means that we will never come back. Never been spoken to like this from someone who is supposed to be employed for customer service, or at least supposed to try and make the customer happy. Being locals, she will lose out on the next 30 years of being our chosen local Indian and would rather go to Mumbai Lounge. Make sure you go somewhere else other than this place! Horrendous food and horrible service. Don’t visit Bengal Spice."
