Tennent's Grill - Lecce

Disappointed waited for a table, seated, waited 10 minutes and no service despite a quiet evening, Left without food or a drink better places within a few metres

Like the reviewer below, we were staying at the hotel 8piu, had been into Lecce in the morning for a walkabout, then off to Otranto after a Siesta and we were bushed! Not wanting to eat in the hotel out of principle and little else, we promised ourselves to go to this bar grill during our stay. No problems with friendliness or being made to feel welcome, had a decent couple of beers and a magnificent Vegetarian pizza italian style with dipped French Fries just for a change of eating out. The nearer it got to 2200 the place began to fill up with Italians and their families and they are good indicators of value and service. Thoroughly recommended if you are passing or need a quick bite and you are staying nearby, even probably worth the 15-20 minute walk from Lecce old town just for the fresh draught beers alone!!! Recommended.

Tennent's is huge, and was only about a third full when we arrived, but we were asked quite aggressively whether we had a reservation, and were then offered a very poor table which we declined and were given a better one away from the corridor. We were irritated when we were immediately given an English menu despite speaking in Italian. Our Romanian waitress was very friendly but didn't seem to know much about the wine on the menu, and eventually none of the lower priced wines were available which we found suspicious. Food arrived quickly we had grilled chicken and chips and it was pretty good, although nothing special. Overall, we just didn't feel terribly welcome here, and didn't think the food or drinks were very good value compared to other local venues.

Ottimo pub ottimo cibo, prezzi eccellenti e personale molto gentile
