What no roast?

"I would like to order 2 roast beef Sunday lunches please." I said to the barmaid at the Harvester pub. "I'm sorry," came the reply from her manager over his shoulder "we don't do roasts anymore." I had to check with him twice that he wasn't pulling my leg, can you believe it a chain of pubs renowned for serving British fare at reasonable prices have dropped roast dinners from their menu!
I must confess that it has been a while since I have been to a Harvester so I'm not sure whether this is a recent change or not but it's still not a welcome one. T and I checked the menu for an alternative but the prices seemed inflated and the choices limited so we decided against it and departed to make our own arrangements at home.
