    We booked the Slug and Lettuce for a very busy day, Billy Joel in Cardiff. Even so we were told the wait for food would be around 45 minutes, we accepted this as it was so busy. Unfortunately after an hours wait our food arrived and one dish had mayonnaise when we specifically asked not to have mayo. This could have been an allergy as they didn’t ask. The other dish was steak and the steak was so tough it was almost inedible. They were not willing to recook the incorrect dish and gave us a refund for that one dish. That meant that having waited that long we ended up having to go to McDonalds. Pretty rubbish experience to be honest and we would not go back there again, ever!
