Visited on Bank Holiday Monday and was really impressed with the new blonde waitress. She handled a busy and difficult shift brilliantly, gave amazing service, and was lovely to chat with. A great experience overall!

We booked online and had a lovely meal with friends on Saturday evening. The staff were attentive and professional and our meals were delicious (the sour dough pizzas and the sea bass). Look forward to returning when we stay in the area again, thank you!

Unfortunately the roast beef was predominantly raw and cold.
Items were missing from our plate and when we chased it up, we were told to share 1 portion between 5 of us. The offer of 6 pigs in blankets between 5 of us wasn?t the condolence they thought it was.
The ?warm? pudding was also cold.
The milk curdled in the bottom of my coffee.
We ate what we could but won?t be returning.

Reasonable food at a resonable price served by friendly staff.
My guest enjoyed his steak and sticky toffee pudding. My rissoto was as exciting as they get.
Only issue that let the experience down was a side order of triple cooked potato chips (£4.50) which was modest in size, dark brown and dried out. I can't think why a professional chef would have sent them out.

Lovely pub in cute little village. Staff were welcoming and attentive, food and drinks were amazing also. Lovely atmosphere we stayed for hours drinking the night away, didn't want to leave.

Wouldn't cater for my coeliac girlfriend who is also a vegetarian, best the chef could offer was a salad, wasn't busy so very disappointed. Went to the stone trough about a mile and a half away instead amazing went above and beyond.

I called there on Sunday with my mum for lunch, she uses a wheelchair and the booking we made was last minute. Despite this we were made to feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble. The food was very good but what really stood out was the service, every single member of staff was excellent, friendly, helpful and attentive which helped make it the perfect relaxing place for Sunday lunch.

I?m going to leave my previous review below, but update with my most recent experience. Following that review we were contacted by the manager who asked for a chance to make things right. We accepted and the difference between our last experience and this one was night and day.
There were four of us for this meal, and we had all been at the last one. The food was excellent and came quickly. I had cauliflower cheese soup which was excellent, followed by fish and chips which was crispy with a not-stingy amount of tartare sauce and mushy peas. I was too full for pudding.
The main difference was the service - they were very friendly and attentive but not hanging around. Brought us water for the table when we sat down and offered us drinks throughout the evening. They checked to make sure everything was ok during every course, and checked if we needed anything else.
It was a really good meal, we didn?t feel rushed or unwanted, and while it could have felt awkward, they made us feel welcome. We all agreed that it was a much better experience so I was happy to revise my review.
*Previous review below*
The food was actually very good, when it arrived, but the service was atrocious.
We had booked the function room for a family birthday. The table was laid with cutlery and water glasses, but no water was brought to the table. In fact the whole time we were there we weren?t offered any drinks and had to go to the bar. We had a tab, and would have ordered a lot more if anyone had bothered with us.
We had sent our food order in advance. We were told we could change any order when we arrived, and a couple of people did, but this apparently wasn?t communicated to the kitchen, as food we ordered didn?t arrive, and food we didn?t order did. Some of the items brought had never been on our order and we sent them back. When it did arrive it was brought in dribs and drabs, and some of the staff didn?t seem to know what they were carrying or what was on the menu. Some starters were wrong, some mains were wrong, some puddings didn?t arrive and the staff member rolled their eyes when asked for them. I had to ask for a spoon for my soup. It all took a long time to arrive. Nobody was checking on us. We were there three hours.
We had coffee and I had to go and get my own sugar. When I went to ask for some the staff were stood gossiping and I had to interrupt them. It?s like I wasn?t there.
Overall a totally negative experience.
This is the second time I?ve been and it was just as bad a couple of months ago. That time they took our drinks order and then just disappeared. 20 minutes later we flagged down a member of staff to find out where our drinks were and order our food.
The food did not make up for what was an overall negative experience. So many basic customer service tricks were missed. The staff need a lot of training. I won?t be back if I can help it, and will be recommending people avoid this place. If anyone from the pub is reading this, I can see you?re using ChatGPT for your replies to reviews.
