I think I must be getting old. The last time I was in Hector's it was too crowded, too loud, impossible to get served and the loos too squalid. And I really dislike having walk through a wall of smoke (and smokers) to get in the door.\nGiven that this was once a favourite haunt and that I have yet to find a replacement, eating and drinking out is either not what it used to be or I am turning into my father. Just call me Victoria Meldrew\n\n\n I've given the place 3 stars because the wines, beers and food have always been reliably good and it is hardly Hector's fault that I've gotten cranky. Sort out the service & the loos and I could probably be dragged back in.
