Post Our experience

We went to the Holy Grail several times and the experience was never particularly good. We did notice that the restaurant became progressively less busy as time went on. My observations:
  • Generally, the food quality was not particularly good and the menu did not really appeal to the local market.
  • The service became progressively worse. There were times that there were only a few tables and the waitress managed to ignore them all.
  • The building was interesting the first time you visited, but it was not an intimate drinking environment nor particularly comfortable (noisy, cold, vacuous).
  • The owners promised improvements and they never actually happened. We stopped in after the letter imploring everyone to give them a second chance. The food and service was worse than ever.

Hopefully, whoever buys the building will learn from the mistakes.
