A pub has been slammed for a 'dodgy' roast dinner with dry meat and overcooked veg - and one diner said it was so bad even their dog wouldn't eat it.
The ‘Turkey and Beef Duo Sunday Roast’ was served at the Greene King owned Channings Hotel in Bristol and cost one unlucky diner £11.79.
Remaining anonymous, they said that the image on the menu looked great, but the food that was brought out was very disappointing.
They got three overdone potatoes, just one piece of cauliflower cheese, and an odd-shaped chunk of stuffing in a Yorkshire pudding - alongside overcooked meat.
What do you think about the roast dinner? Let us know in the comments...
A barrister, who uploads to Twitter as WelshGirlAbroad, said that her student daughter was given the depressing looking dish while out with her friends, and she shared a photo of the meal - which was met with dismay - online.
She wrote: "So this is what Greene King serves by way of award-winning roast dinner at Channings in Bristol.
"She was with three friends. They didn’t like to complain, thought they’d be assumed to be students trying it on.
"They’d had to pay in advance on an app. I’ve seen better in hospital."
Soon she was inundated with comments from people who agreed that the food served looked terrible.
Linda Caswell wrote: "I've just come out of hospital and the food was great. Their chicken dinner knocked this into a cocked hat.”
Chris Dale replied: "There’s not much our dog would decline to eat, but I think you’ve found it."
Mark Savage said: "That is not a roast."
Fellow barrister Francesca Gardner said: "Oh that’s depressing."

Someone else posted: "That is dreadful."
Another friend asked: "What. Is. That? Do they think you (1) can’t see and (2) have no appetite?"
While someone else proclaimed: "That is one of the worst meals I have ever seen. Wow."
The barrister complained to the pub chain owner but said they needed a week to look into it.
She added: "They apparently need up to seven days to decide whether it was acceptable to serve this or not.
"The response had best be worth the wait."
The production description for the ‘Turkey and Beef Duo Sunday Roast’ on Greene King’s website reads: “Served with roast potatoes, seasonal vegetables, cauliflower cheese, sausage meat stuffing, a Yorkshire pudding and rich gravy.”
A spokesperson for the Channings Hotel said: "Unfortunately the roast dinner served to our customer was not to the usual standard we strive to provide to all of our customers. We are currently looking into what happened to ensure this does not happen again.
"We have already spoken to our customer directly to apologise and offered to welcome them back for another meal so we can make it up to them."
