  Thanks for the "heads up" on that Jan Smile   Apart from the general stuff like tea, coffee and pasties Approve   I've only eaten at Squires twice Ermm   First time was at PB's birthday, where I thought the "carvery" was excellent, and good value for money Thumbs Up   The second time was at the R & B weekend and I ordered pie and chips but got a plateful of fried potato scraps Disapprove   Being me, I naturally took it back and was given a fresh meal, which was in the most part, edible Ermm   But how many folk would have just "given up" and left it Wacko   So I wont be eating "front of house" again, anytime soon Wink

I know they were a chef down at Rock n Bike but wasn't clear whether that was permanent because someone had left or what.  Jason certainly wasn't happy when folk tried to complain that weekend.

  Hi Jan, I imagine that if you complained to the staff about the food being off, which I'm assuming is what you mean in your first post? that the food will have been removed, and disposed of, immediately.   The health authorities take food poisoning very seriously.     I've been going to Squires, at its current location, for 10 yrs and in the beginning the food was pretty dire, as in not cooked very well, over cooked, salad not fresh etc, tho nothing to harm anyone. It's improved over the years, no idea if it was the same chef as it is now so can't say if that is the reason it's improved.   I have to say tho that Jasen seems to have got grumpier over the years, and can be quite rude.   If you are sure the food made you ill maybe you should  contact the health authorities, what makes one person ill can kill another. All age groups visit Squires and eat there.   In MHO at the very least you should get a refund and another meal and a very large apology from Jasen.

  I'd hardly call it rocking boats to report food poisoning to the authorities.   I've had food poisoning twice and one of those times it lasted 2 weeks and I couldn't even keep water down, I was very poorly.   I have crohn's disease and my immune system is weak so another  bout of food poisoning would be more serious for me than most.   To be honest I'm surprised someone hasn't been ill before now cos they never throw away their chipped drinking mugs.

Otley bridge cafe is miles better and around half the price-If I'm going to Squires for a sunday run I go via Otley for a fry up first. Squires food ok but nothing special,the coffee is fine! As Jinx says its a business not a bike club,most peeps go there for the atmosphere not the food anyway. I would say if it doesn't get trade it won't keep going but they must make plenty of money with the number of people there on an evening/weekend buying coffees and pasties!

  Squires don't cook the pasties Rose, they are bought in.   Sweeney Todd, Squires breakfast is lovely except when the Rock and Bike Show was on, they precooked it and kept it warm, it looked bone dry and unappetising. I wasn't eating it, someone else was.

I like Squires for the atmosphere, but the food can be iffy. Not eaten there for years though. 

Usually stick with a chocolate bar and the stewed dishwater they call tea - tastes bad cos I drink it without  milk. Really must have coffee in future, might taste better. 

All in all, I think in some ways Squires is worse than when it was in the village, but it was villagers complaining that ended up with it being moved. That used to be an awesome site. What seemed like thousands of bikes parked all over the village. Bet the shops lost a lot of customers, when it moved.

At least now,you can hold rallies at Squires, and get parked when you visit, so that's better.

Never had a problem with breakfasts there, except black pudding as I hate the stuff and usually give that to Guzzi. Saying that I can eat pretty much anything with out problems, years of training eating crap
