Staff Service

Pros:

  • "Katie, our server was warm and welcoming."
  • "Service is great as usual, thanks to Sarah and Phil who really help make this a great local pub."
  • "Pleasant dinner out, you should think yourselves lucky that you have a member of staff waiting the tables, a breath of fresh air listening to how lovely she was to all the tables. Well done Margaret."

Cons:

  • "Sadly some of the bar staff were even more hostile in demeanor!"
  • "Staff did not know the food our drinks menu."
  • "When I complained to the waitress all our reply was .... Oh sorry about that! None impressed and will not be returning here again as was most disappointed."
  • "Visited a couple of Saturdays ago Possibly the most laughable social distancing one way system in any pub... if you dare come back on yourself the fat manager with glasses on tells you off like a schoolteacher."
  • "Tried to have a nice anniversary meal with some friends only to be told when arriving that as we had not arrived at 6, they had given our table away."
  • "By the time my meal came out the rest of the table had finished theirs."
  • "The staff were all useless with no customer service at all and the manager was rude and totally uninterested."

Food Quality

Pros:

  • "Stoped in on a sunny afternoon... the food was excellent and they were brilliant with the children, would highly recommend it."
  • "However, you can't knock the prices or the food. There's plenty of it, and it tastes good."
  • "What an amazing dog friendly pub with brilliant food."
  • "Food was lovely, hot fresh and we did not have to wait long."
  • "First visit as we are from Wales... only had desserts and coffee, thoroughly enjoyed, well presented and tasted great... would definitely recommend and would visit again when visiting family."
  • "Had a cracking Sunday lunch beef duo, the long rib was superb."
  • "The food was really nice and tasted delicious."

Cons:

  • "Only disappointment was the Mushroom Wellington. Lots of puff pastry, but no mushrooms and a small amount of rice and spinach."
  • "The mixed grill and a pint of San miquel was almost 20 quid. I wouldn't be lying if I said witherspoons was better."
  • "Had a mixed grill, won't be having it again. Wasn't the best, black pudding tasted like dirty fat and didn't taste like black pudding, chips were re fried, egg was crispy round the edges and tasted like the black pudding."
  • "Overall if I'm honest save your money and get a pot noodle, you'll enjoy it more."
  • "The food served was substandard, garlic bread - toast with garlic butter???"
  • "The food ??? 5*"
  • "The food was terrible, never have I seen garlic bread on a piece of bread."

  • "Nice atmosphere, place was almost full and buzzing."
  • "Very relaxed atmosphere. Seemed quite a lot of regulars in which gave it a friendly vibe."

Cons:

  • "The tumbleweed rolled and the piano stopped as we walked in, so all the regulars could glare coldly at the newcomers."
  • "I’ve never experienced such a negative atmosphere!"
  • "Feels a little bit run down in here, the bar and the floor were very sticky when it felt like it needed a bit of TLC."
  • "Clean and tidy pub, but not at all welcoming."
  • "So two years ago we regularly came here on the Friday... seems to just be a drinking pub and lost the family feel now."
  • "This evening I was literally shouted at when leaving the pub by the staff member."
  • "Not children friendly... seemed dogs are more welcome than kids still no not to come back again."
