The Cricketers Arms is an authentic country pub in a scenic area and I was visiting it for the first time in search of a traditional Sunday roast. The pub staff were very friendly and hospitable and a large potbelly in the large fireplace gave the no-frills pub a cosy ambience. I didn't expect a gourmet dining experience, however, I felt I had to make a few comments about my roast beef lunch so that the kitchen staff can seek to improve or at least be prepared to warn their future customers. I ordered a "topside" roast beef lunch. The portions of the meat and vegetables were generous, and the Yorkshire Pudding very nice, but the beef was extremely tough and chewy, plus thickly sliced and mostly too rare, so I finally had to give up trying to eat it. It was also difficult to cut through with the knife I had been given. (I could have asked to replace the knife, but I knew I couldn't eat the meat one way or another and I also felt that no amount of extra preparation was going to improve the tenderness of the meat.) I am not knowledgeable about beef cuts and maybe I should have known to expect the "top-side" beef to be as tough as it was, but if so, it would have been better to forewarn me. I could have ordered the Turkey roast and probably would have fared better. Again, the staff were so friendly, I don't like to complain, but for the sake of future customers wanting a Sunday roast beef lunch they can more easily consume, I thought I had better leave a review.
