Excellent BBQ Restaurant

You're right, this is Yorkshire - "tha what, tha's just gid mi fresh air and charging for it"!

Haha - yes! Seriously, that kind of pretentious restaurant sh** is one of my biggest pet peeves - £100 for 'air'?! Seriously?! We like to eat & we eat well - most of which we cook for ourselves. But I can't be arsed for that - plus the way my husband eats, that £100 'air' would be gone in 30 seconds - now that was really worth it, eh? They can keep their 'air' & I'll keep my £100! I wonder if others here thought the same, hence the demise of Anthony's... 

I heard his Rib Shakk wasn't that good anyway.

But definitely get to Reds if you can!

This guy didn't seem too impressed..in fact the way he goes on about the buckets reminds me of my mum!

Haha - he's a right sniffy Londoner, what does he know?!  (I have read his Guardian column from time to time, but can't stand his whiny voice when I see him on some cooking show - Masterchef? - on TV.)

Well obviously, like any restaurant, YMMV... But the majority of people I know who've been to Reds rave about it, and the line is usually out the door during peak times, meaning that the biggest complaints I've heard are:

a) having to wait too long for a table (refer to that line mentioned above), and...
b) service suffers a bit when they are extraordinarily busy as they quite often are.

So us lowly northern plebes do appear to love the place!

What TykeMan said - I know you'd take the food bullet for the rest of us!
