Atmosphere & Decor

Pros:

  • "The bar and restaurant area is quite simply superb."
  • "The place looks and feels modern and fresh, with bespoke hand-blown LED light fittings and classy, well maintained furniture and high quality luxury vinyl 'wooden' floors."
  • "Really nice restaurant with formal dining at the front and extensive outdoor casual drinking and eating areas to the rear covered and uncovered."
  • "The outdoor area is great, it is covered with heaters and plenty of space."
  • "Decorated lovely and spacious, big garden for kids and dogs right by the canal!"
  • "Outside looked great, had a lovely children's play area, as well as loads of seating."
  • "Recently refurbished (June 2023), this is a friendly modern welcoming pub."

Cons:

  • "Most people had kept their coats on because it was really cold."
  • "Felt very bare in there and no atmosphere."
  • "Look its nice inside etc, however I always get the feeling its trying to be something its not."
  • "The only comment we had from our visit today is that the pasta meal we had for one of our children was absolutely swimming in tomato sauce, it would have be a generous amount of sauce had there been two thirds less."
  • "The windowsill was full of ants so they moved us and the other windowsill was the same."
  • "Only dislike? The unnecessary, loud and monotonously uninteresting music."
  • "Some noise from the beer gardens especially the pub next door around midnight."

Service

Pros:

  • "A really hard working well organised team."
  • "Very organised, outside/inside sheltered dining, great service, very attentive and helpful staff."
  • "Our waiter was 2nd to none, really sweet & attentive, always checking if we needed drinks etc."
  • "Service is quick and professional."
  • "The staff were very friendly and helpful."
  • "Staff very friendly all polite and quick to notice we needed assistance."
  • "Service from Maja was excellent, very friendly and professional service :) thank you!"

Cons:

  • "Half the young staff were busy chatting whilst the other half was working."
  • "Service was slow... Meals not up to standard they are charging."
  • "Considering we pre ordered for a party of 10 other punters were given priority so we had to wait a long time to be served and one starter was forgotten."
  • "Service is poor. Kids behind the bar joking around while you wait ages for drinks."
  • "I must say the manger there was rather rude as we left even though we had tidied the venue."
  • "The only downside, breakfast staff were quite rude."
  • "I will say that the service was slow at times."

Food & Drink

Pros:

  • "Dinner was fantastic as The Kinderton and the prices were not 'break the bank prices' and you are given quality."
  • "Food was amazing I had the superfood salad with seabass so tasty."
  • "Food was absolutely beautiful, the hotpot was hot, filling and tasty."
  • "The food was delicious and a little different to the usual menu."
  • "The cooked breakfast was plentiful and freshly cooked."
  • "The food was amazing, and came out very quickly, fresh and hot."
  • "The food (cod & chips) was not fresh. It was soggy and dripping of water as if it had been defrosted."

Cons:

  • "Sadly at almost £5 a pint, I avoid now."
  • "Nice but not amazing food and a lacklustre service does mean that I will be in no rush to return which is a shame."
  • "The chips were on the small size and looked dehydrated two chips had black in them."
  • "Although the chicken itself was nice it would have been better if actually cooked in the sauce, but as the sauce was completely tasteless and a strange thick powder mix consistency it wouldn't have helped."
  • "The allergies list did not match the menu."
  • "Sides to food is missing and by the time it arrives you have eaten the main."
  • "Breakfast was nice, did not rate the sausages as they were a bit hard and the mushroom was a bit soggy."
