The wake for my mother's funeral was held in the Plough Inn, Wigston, Leicester. It was convenient for the church, across the road.
Aside from the poor, slow, and unhelpful service of the staff, the food was absolutely disgusting. It was predominantly cheap stodge, massively carb dominated (presumably to fill people up so they ate less) and of the cheapest quality. I have no doubt that the owner stocks his kitchen at the local Farm Foods and Aldi.
If the owner spent as much as even £1 per head himself, I would be shocked and advising him that HE was ripped off.
I'm trying to write a comprehensive review here, but words alone cannot express just how poor the buffet food was.
Given that this dismally poor service was provided for my Mother's funeral I will never set foot in this establishment for the rest of my life. More than that though, I will do everything I can to encourage everyone else to steer well clear of this cheap, tacky, penny pinching, miserable, and GRUBBY dump.
If the owners are reading this, you DISGUST me. This was a funeral. What sort of service would you expect for your OWN Mother's funeral?
