Seems the place may have a bit of a reputation.
As it's your local, I'd probably asked friends if they'd been there, and what they thought.
On the other hand I might have done what you did.
Not very nice though to pay quite a lot, and get little for the price.
When we're abroad we never eat out anywhere with linen table-cloths, and always suss out the English pricelist, and especially what drinks are going to cost.

It would cost the restaurant more to take you to small claims court than it would for the cost of the meal itself, but if you refused to pay at all...then you'd be in the brown stuff.
Again not sure if it'd work but in theory!

No...just our local pub that has had a 'make over' to try to go up market but in my eyes has failed. The price was for a complete meal. I have no problems in paying if the food is good (We went to The Fenwick last weekend with my brother-in-law and the cost was about the same, but the food and service was 1000% better)

If it says Duck leg with mangetout and potato then thats what you've ordered and got so you'd have no complaints, if though it said duck served with season vegetables and potatoes then you've got quite a justifable reason to make a grievance.
