Went as a family
Went as a family – wife, daughter, granddaughter and son-in-law – for a proper Sunday roast at the Firehouse/Smokehouse in Eynsham. We were looking forward to a classic British roast dinner.
What arrived was a letdown. The “big” Yorkshire pudding was anything but – small and underwhelming. There was next to no veg on the plate, and the so-called crispy potatoes were just coloured boiled potatoes with no proper crisp or roast character at all.
For a place that markets itself around smokehouse and hearty food, this Sunday roast missed the mark on the basics. Portions and execution of the traditional elements (Yorkie, veg, roasties) simply weren’t up to scratch.
Wouldn’t rush back for the roast.
