Table of nine of us booked a table in advance at F & S. We were told that a booking of this size could only choose from the set menu (choice of 3 starters, 5 pizzas and 3 deserts). Price of £22.95 each and we were told this included a glass of wine. We arrived and table was ready, nice place, good decor, very busy and a nice buzz…So far so good. Then were were given the set menu to choose from. Very poor choice, all pizzas with meat on also had roast potatoes on? Pizza with roast potatoes? Thats a carbohydrate overload, why? Also all pizzas had sour cream, chilli jam or some other wet sauce on (pizza's are their business so we trusted the combinations may work). We struggled to make a choice and all ordered with a few doubts as to what to expect.

We asked our waiter if we could order from the normal menu as the choice was so poor on the set, we were told no way at all could we do this as (and I quote) ‘we order our stocks in advance knowing who is choosing from what menu’. This was ridiculous, there was a queue of people outside without bookings waiting to get in, how could F & S know what they were going to choose?? Anyway, ordered from the set menu as we had no choice.

Starters being honest were OK, nothing great but OK. Then the main course the pizza'a (which is after all is what F & S are all about). They were simply awfull. Un-edible for all of us and we are 9 men, men will eat ANY pizza! 3 of us were so unhappy, we sent them back to the kitchen, 1 just left the whole thing less one mouthfull and the rest of us, trying not to cause a scene politely scraped all the topping off the pizza and just eat the base. The toppings just… More
