Despite having booked in advance it was almost an hour before we were served any food . Given that we were limited to a 2 hr slot this was a bit annoying . I had the vegetarian roast ( lentil and carrot ) . It was fine but a bit dry and salty … more sauce would have helped as the Yorkshire pudding was also quite dry . Our waiter was very helpful ( it was his 4 th shift ) . The table was balanced on a wedge which slipped out , causing the table to wobble and covering me in beer . While the waiters were very helpful the manager barely cast a glance our way and did not apologise at all . I have eaten in the Saint before and enjoyed it especially as it’s accommodating to dogs . Yesterday was a bit of a disappointment .

The food was poor. I had the house burger and chips. The burger was almost solid and did not taste fresh. The other person in my group had a ciabatta and chips sandwich. It was far too big and was dry. We were sat next to the toilet which stank. The toilets there always stink. They need to sort that out. Every time the door opened I got a massive whiff of toilet smell. The service was poor. New starts I grant you but it took an age to get our order taken. I had finished half my burger before the condiments came. And there was a distinct lack of care or welcoming. It’s a pity because I enjoyed the Saint previously.

Mussels were excellent would certainly recommend. Had the grilled sea bass which also was good. Very noisy atmosphere however.
