Casa Bar, Tamworth (Sat 19th April)
We had heard good things about Casa from my moburger, n-law and we decided to have tea there. As you go into the building, it really does smell. Thankfully, the unpleasant aroma was only confined to the entrance and the ladies toilet. I'm not sure if I should tell you what it smelt like but in the object of fairness and honesty I will.
It smelt like unemptied sanitary towel bins! It was quite disgusting. Anyway, onto the food...
We ordered our drinks and food at the bar like the usual way at pubs. The girl behind the bar was so friendly and helpful that at the end of our meals, my mother-in-law actually tipped her.
I ordered the Chilli Burger with BBQ pulled pork. The burger was cooked well but just a standard burger, nothing special. I did like the chilli sauce on the bottom bun and jalapeƱos are a favourite of mine but I found the BBQ pork to be lacking flavour and there was far too little on there. I did not see the point.
Chips were fine - tasted frozen but nothing special, same with the onion rings.
Overall, I would not visit again but it may have just been an off day. We were the only people in the entire place, except for the staff so perhaps this should have been a warning sign. However, we did check out TripAdvisor beforehand which had glowing reviews. I might take my dad there as the portions are huge but personally it's a no from me.
Cheers, B x
