Place to eat hash? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mess

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'place to eat' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'hash?' is the second definition.
(making a hash of something is making a mess of it)

(Other definitions for mess that I've seen before include "Officers' restaurant - what a dump" , "Medley" , "Where officers eat" , "stew or > jam" , "State of confusion - where servicemen eat" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
