The Refreshment Rooms are rightly a local institution. A great location, beautiful decor, a lovely garden and benches out front, warm, knowledgeable staff with a sense of humour, a fine drinks selection and a well-balanced menu. The fishcakes come well recommended, as does the Hake....The bacon and black pudding was most welcome, but.. The Greek salad was truly disappointing. Large, tough marinated sundried tomatoes, rather tired chunky-cut onion, cucumber, and green pepper, large, tough green olives, kidney beans (Kidney beans?), Feta bashed through into a thoroughly unappealing mush bound with a generic dressing. Greek salad should be a light symphony of colours and flavours, sensitively assembled with, preferably Kalamata olives, very fresh mise-en-place, cut with a sharp knife, or mandoline. A nice lemony dressing with some oregano, perhaps some mint leaves and a lovely bit of the ol' pita bread? The young waiter was most helpful and deducted it from the bill. Fanks everybody peeps, Stavros.More
