Red Cow, The Description
In the spiritual home of the sandwich I think I might have expected to find a little more homage paid to this very English invention, but that is hardly the case at the Red Cow, though the steak sandwich is no bad effort, even though the modern tendency to submerge the real event in a welter of 'extras', including the dreaded 'garnish' is probably not what the Earl of Sandwich had in mind. However, other things make up for it and a relatively short but appetising menu starts with The Red Cow Prawn Salad, quite an event in itself, possibly potato skins, or take a chance on the soup of the day.
From main courses the steaks, 10oz sirloin or 14oz t-bone seem to offer good value, with a sauce of your choice for an extra pound. Dedicated offal addicts might lean towards the liver and bacon with a good creamy mustard mash, and onion gravy.
A blackboard of desserts completes the picture, though cheese buffs will be happy to hear that cheese and biscuits are offered at appreciably less than the outrageous price so often charged for this little eccentricity.
Your Reviews of Red Cow, The
Allison (30 July 2008)
Having eaten at the Red Cow in Sandwich recently, I was dismayed to see that the menu had changed and not for the better. After choosing a cheese ploughman’s, we looked forward to our meal. When it arrived we were dismayed to see that instead of a crusty roll or baguette, we were given sliced bread cut into triangles, this was really a big letdown, however on the plus side the cheese was very good quality and really flavoursome, the salad however was on the small side but the dressing was nice. Not sure about olives or gherkins though and we were offered no alternative. We had to ask for a fork as the cheese knife alone was impractical. We were not asked if we enjoyed our meal and felt it a little overpriced. The whole ambience of the pub has changed since new people took over. Shame, it used to be a lovely pub.
