English mustard

The room was spotless, the selection of beers and the friendliness of the locals in the bar was excellent. I had 2 pints of Barnsley bitter, which went down a treat. We ordered 2 Sunday roast, which came after a bit of a wait. I asked for some English mustard, I like a little with meats, as I think many others do. Unfortunately all that could be found was American mustard, maybe ok with burgers but not with British beef. A little thing maybe, but a shame English couldnt be offered.
