Each time a new restaurant opens in Snorbs, I find myself writing the same review. This one is for Bills, but you could pretty much interchange any of the big chain restaurant names. So, here we go. The decor is impressive. Someone (the people behind the Ivy) have spent a pretty penny making the old Wetherspoons and short-lived Baroque look, well, pretty. It's also huge. 180+ covers, we reckoned. Tables are close together which made for a good atmosphere on a half full Wednesday night, but I imagine would be rather oppressive if they were chocker. Service is friendly, welcoming and slick. But the food ... oh, how disappointing. A run of the mill menu of burgers, fish finger sarnies and mac'n'cheese failed to inspire. And it's quite a big menu. When the food came it looked as it tasted - nice enough, but nothing to get excited about. It's reasonable value, but for the same prices you'd get much better and more interesting food in, say, Lussmans. Overall, a rather uninspiring visit. Sorry, Bill. [Apr 13]
