"The pie, chips, lasagne and garlic bread were all very good."
"Had a lovely hot Latte."
"Steak and ale pie, apple pie we highly recommend it was delicious."
"We had the steak, with tomato, mushrooms, chips, and mushy peas and we also had the Jacksons boats burger which was huge, with chips and onion rings. Everything was absolutely wonderful."
"The food was delicious and the staff were really looking after us :) We had fish and chips to share."
"Great food and super friendly staff."
"Food is really good."
"Very pleasant dog-friendly pub that serves good food at equally good prices."
Cons:
"Peas were not very fresh and salad was plain and somewhat wilted."
"My Sister's Burger was Cold, I was given an Ordinary knife, I tried to cut into my Steak, it was Solid.. it was Bloody."
"When tried to order food, everything we wanted was not available."
"The gammon was burned and cold, cheese and onion pie all pastry and the presentation of the curry was, to say the least, revolting."
"Our beer was flat and had finger prints in the glass. The rum and coke we ordered was free poured and coke was flat."
"The food coming out of the kitchen looked (and smelt!) amazing but due to how busy it was there was an hour wait on food so didn't get to try it this time."
"Chicken burger was simply bad, coleslaw looked unsafe to eat, chips were fried in used oil."
"We ordered the Jackson boat burger, it looked lovely but didn't taste very nice, some of the thick chips were still frozen."
Service
Pros:
"The manager and team were excellent on the day and really put in the effort to be welcoming, accommodating and make a sad day memorable for all the right reasons."
"Shaun, Melissa and crew were simply delightful. Everyone said it was a fantastic, quite perfect venue for our event."
"Visited hear yesterday for the 1st time after taking my dog's for a walk. Staff were really friendly and made us feel welcome, lovely food and nice atmosphere."
"Would just like to say a massive massive thank you to Michelle and her team at the jacksons boat For going above and beyond."
Cons:
"Bar lady was quite abrupt and rude. Didn't actually tell me what I could order so I didn't bother."
"As soon as we spoke to the bar staff it was nothing but rude, impatient behaviour."
"Woeful customer service, a potentially nice experience spoilt by 1 staff member's ill-mannered behaviour."
"Never order food from here unless you want to receive it cold and it come out at different times."
Ambience and Atmosphere
Pros:
"Historic pub with lots of interesting items inside, slightly spoiled outside by in your face signage fixed to the wall."
"The pub was FREEZING cold. We foolishly stayed and ordered some food."
"Live music I was told, bouncy castle, kids park, outside and inside seating. Really worth going."
"Great pub in a fab location, serving lovely food."
Cons:
"Atmosphere was really loud like we were in a disco. Very distracting and made it hard to relax or even hold a conversation."
"On two recent visits it's been chaos, and not even that busy."
"Pub very dark, didn't seem very welcoming or clean."
"Service is good and fast, but I do object to serving wine in plastic receptacles."
