All I can say is they're lucky I'm forced to rate it 1 star. Awful food, tough meat, dry potatoes, raw veg and most things out of stock. To top it off being made aware of a gluten intolerance and vegetarian dietary requirement - gravy being added to the gluten free dish and then waiting over an hour for a replacement and meat gravy being added to the vegetarian dish. The lack of communication for out of stock food was absolutely awful, serving overcooked steak when the sauces were out of order and not informing customers with time to change their order and serving a 2 year old a huge piece of fish instead of fish fingers. Worst experience ever for a Sunday lunch and birthday celebration!

Good beer and reasonably priced.

A pub that looks good from the outside and commands a prestigious position in a beautiful area. Then you go inside lol. The food is good to be fair but the vibe isn't great at all and one of the male staff members seems to have a massive chip on his shoulders. A bit of a locals place, enough said.

Dreadful.

I went in with some of my friends and were appalled by everything. Once we had placed our orders the bar man I think called Simon made a remark with his colleague about one of my friends as I overheard it.

Ordered a burger and chips. It came without a bun! No apologies of offer of a drink etc. Pretty poor.

One of the worst Sunday roasts I?ve ever paid for. Effectively Iceland frozen food reheated for £18 each.
45 minute wait for food and 30 minute wait just for our drinks to arrive. Toilets a mess - won?t be returning

Nice pub and good for a drink. Bar staff didn't really know what they had available though

It's location is fine and the pub is serviceable, the staff friendly.

I had food here yesterday. The food was good but the service was very poor. I ordered at the bar by a blonde girl who was just abrupt and rude. She was very impatient as if she was very busy but the place was quiet. She was more interested in her phone than the customers. There was tables to be cleared and cleaned whilst she was on her phone. Preciously, we sat at a dirty table and moved to find a clean one. Train your staff or find new ones.

Lovely place. Mulled wine was very good !! They just don't serve coffees !

The pub was generally nice and the staff were great. The Lamb roast wasn't great. The lamb meat was nice, the potatoes were below average, the parsnip was inedible (undercooked), all in all I won't be going back for a roast and wouldn't recommend it for one. The burger someone else ordered looked good so maybe it's just the roasts which aren't great.

Nice place to pop in for a drink on a hot day.

I can't put my finger on why I can't give this more stars. 3.5 is what I'd like but I can't.
The pub needs some tlc really, it's looking tired. The lake is more like a big pond and the common is not what I expected.
The service was lovely, greeted with a big smile and she was great, so cannot take anything away from the staff.
The burger was good, nothing special, feltnit was just missing that something. My wife said the Earth burger was really good though.
My main disappointment.... The S'mores, toasted marshmallows... But they were not toasted, they may have been last week but they were cold, clumped together and just the tiny ones you'd add to a hot chocolate. Also the Brownie was cold as well, gutted.
Vegetarian options: Watch burger was great.
Parking: Parking was difficult. My wife thought there was a car park but I didn't see it. Street parking was a little tight but we found something at least.
