I don’t expect to be back in Universal’s good graces with this review of the Leaky Cauldron, the dining venue in Diagon Alley, which I finally got around to visiting recently. Most of the food is embarrassingly inadequate, and what they charge for it borders on gouging.

Worst of the lot is the mini pies, which is a sampler of the cottage pie and fisherman’s pie, which are both available separately. As samplers, the pies are served in small aluminum plates with crusted liners and mashed potatoes on top. The fisherman’s pie had a bit of flavor if not much in the way of anything a fisherman might catch. The cottage pie was largely flavorless.
