Silvermere Inn On The Lake, Rydal Suite

We used to visit Silvermere regularly for their Sunday roasts even though it was quite a drive from home. There used to be lashings of gorgeous beef, two yorkshire puds and great trimmings including cauliflower cheese. It seems now the management has decided to cover a year’s inflation by seriously short changing their customers on the portion size and meat quality. The photos tell the story, almost exactly a year apart, a tiny portion of beef cut so thin you can almost see the pattern on the plate through it, pallid potatoes and the cauliflower cheese is now an additional side dish at £5.50 Far better quality roast dinners available almost anywhere for the same price so this is an unbelievably short sighted and stupid move by Silvermere. The rest of the menu is general pub and fried food which we can get at far better quality locally, so I really cant see us going back. You will see from my other reviews that I am almost always writing to praise a venue, so it takes a lot of disappointment to make me write a bad review.
