Unfortunately, our recent visit to The Punchbowl was disappointing. The food arrived lukewarm rather than hot, which took away from what might have otherwise been enjoyable dishes.
What stood out even more, though, was the service. The man who served us ? who I assume was the manager, as he wasn?t dressed like the other waitstaff ? came across as quite rude. He seemed visibly irritated when we asked a couple of questions about the menu, which made the experience feel uncomfortable. Not once did he smile or attempt to make us feel welcome.
Hospitality goes a long way, and sadly it was lacking during our visit. I hope this was just an off day, but it?s not the kind of atmosphere that encourages a return.

We have been here a few times now, particularly for Sunday lunch. The portion sizes are generous, and the food is well presented. They have a good selection of cocktails, and their after dinner one is particularly worth trying. It's slightly more expensive than some restaurants, but you get great service and good quality food.

Went here for Sunday Lunch with our family of 6 to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The food was excellent and plentiful. This was also matched by the attentive service. We would highly recommend this country restaurant for a quality meal

I hosted family and friends for my 40th Birthday at Punchbowl, I have been there on many occasions for a meal and love the food and selection of drinks. All my guests had a fantastic time and really commended the hospitality from the staff. In particular a massive shout out to Conor and Ollie who were behind the bar for most of the evening and provided such excellent service! Looking forward to our next meal there too!

Upon entering if it wasn?t for the one lady who saw to us the rest of the staff did a quick glance then look away like they didn?t want to deal with us. We got booked into our room quickly and it was nice but didn?t realise no aircon. We were supplied with a small fan which didn?t do much and had a lot of dust in it (not good for myself who had a lot of dust allergies). Room was soundproofed (unless window open) and bed was comfy. But I noticed stains on the bedding and in the bath - which put me off having a bath. The light in the bathroom is so dim! Not good if you have poor eyesight and the water goes constantly from hot to cold. Btw you need a hot water sign next to your tap - I almost burnt myself I?ve never felt tap water that hot before. And there?s no where for your own products in the shower. Food was good but overpriced and service was good. I?d come back for the food but not to stay long term.

Fantastic pub for a Sunday treat! Their sharing roast platter is the highlight ? perfectly cooked meats, fluffy Yorkshire puddings, and all the best trimmings, ideal for splitting with friends or family. Add in the great live music and relaxed, friendly vibe, and you?ve got the perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Highly recommend booking ahead ? it?s popular for a reason!

Absolutely abysmal. Been refurbished and place is full. Service non existent, food.....don't hold you breath it's on a shoestring and they are charging the earth . In a few weeks it will be empty again as the novelty wears off. In town I can get 3 courses for 2 for 25 with wine.
Empty your pockets for absolute rubbish
