Petersham Inn, Petersham

5.4 Average

Umm, like others said, this used to be a good place for a meal. Then it changed hands and got more expensive and definitely worse in quality. The fish and chips used to be fairly decent pub fare, they were replaced by processed frozen fish serves, pretty much just large fish fingers. The steaks got thinner and the trivia prizes got way way stingier i.e. halved. We persevered hoping the new owners would see their errors, but alas we just watched the patron numbers dwindle instead, and we too soon found ourselves a new local.

A friend tells me the bistro has improved now so we are trying it again tonight. Fingers crossed it really is better, although I am not looking forward to entering the pub via those godawful smoking fishbowl doorways! Horrible! A non-smoking entrance would be wonderful!

Update: The food is 1000 times better! The smoking doorways are still horrendous!
