The Thirsty Flame

"Working away and this is this 2nd time I’ve been. Had food 1st time which was bob on went in the vault tonight talking to the younger crowd. So polite and respectful. It should be the norm but it isn’t nowadays. Bar staff and the people were so nice and friendly cant big up this pub enough"

"Hate leaving reviews full stop but would like to give people the heads up. Went to thirsty flame today, when we first got there the first thing I noticed is that it didn’t look like the pictures I’d seen online, plus it smelt like an old peoples home (not in a disrespectful way but I can’t explain the smell) so I had the hot dog (only one to choose from even though it says burgers and hot dogs) came bland as anything, greasy onions had to take them off. My partner had the blade burger, it doesn’t give much in the description but the picture shows it comes with coleslaw but it didn’t so that must be something you have to buy extra, so as it’s a grill place we thought it would be nice grilled meat, but she wasn’t happy with the meat as she couldn’t really understand the texture. The onion rings had no taste. They looked amazing, nice chunky crispy looking onion rings but they tasted great like they had been fried numerous times in oil. The staff even though they weren’t nasty seem to only really cater for regulars so made us feel a bit on edge. (Again not the staffs fault cos we didn’t say anything so they can’t change it if we don’t say anything) just an observation. Would like you to go try it if it’s your bag, we won’t eat there again but if you don’t try you will never know."
