Food Quality

Pros:

  • "Caramelized carrots were absolutely beautiful and I am not fan of them. All the vegies were nice and the meat was very nice also."
  • "The carving chef was really patient with my Mum and even saved my plate whilst I helped her out getting lunch and back to the table."
  • "The staff have been absolutely fantastic and so helpful, from bar staff to carvery chef and waitresses!"
  • "Surf and turf and the ultimate burger both delicious."
  • "Absolutely fantastic welcome and carvery was the best ever, compliments to the chef."
  • "Food was lovely and tasted fresh. Portion sizes were great."
  • "Honestly can't fault them. Carvery practically fixed my hangover."
  • "The staff are very friendly and happy to help. The place is very clean and the food is spot on we go for carvery, forget your toby carvery this is the best we've had."

Cons:

  • "The staff were very polite and helpful, however the portion size from the menu were small, my son came away hungry, the Carvery wasn't as good as it looked meat was dry, some of the carrots were black, and the roast potatoes were tough."
  • "Food was OK we had the carvery. if I had to find a negative it would be that the cauliflower cheese was crunchie (not cooked enough) and there wasn't a huge choice of vegetables."
  • "A really nice meal but my husband chose the steak and ale pie but it was sold out. He settled for a southern fried chicken ultimate burger and it was massive!"
  • "The double burger I got was definitely made with frozen cheap burger meat, hard, skinny and chewy. Kids fish fingers are also frozen, from a box."
  • "Food is well below average and is quite expensive in my opinion. Two of our party got the carvery and it was very dry."
  • "Food was as OK but many of the roasties were burnt or rock hard."
  • "If I was rating Reece our 17yr old waiter it would have been 5 ☆ but I can only give it 4 because of my main meal. A fundamental part of this the giant Yorkshire pudding I sent back because it was bland and like cardboard."
  • "Really nice pub to come to when out and about in the area. We got 2 carverys and usually it's really good but on this Monday afternoon we went it wasn't so great."

  • "Fantastic Sunday lunch today after Go Ape at Temple Newsam. Staff really friendly and helpful."
  • "Staff & place very nice but I was disappointed with the food don't get me wrong the food was nice but it was just luke warm."
  • "Staff mostly helpful but somewhat incompetent in areas, possibly due to christmas temps being new to the role etc."

  • "Staff were very helpful and very attentive. Food was lovely and tasted fresh. Portion sizes were great."
  • "We went in to ask about the availability of vegan dishes for a friend who was joining us later. The young man at the bar was very helpful indeed."
  • "Just got back home having had a late afternoon meal at the fly line. Not been for a while but couldn't fault it."
  • "One lovely lad even offered to pour gravy on my veggie wellington for me so I didn’t have to move! Thanks so much for a lovely mid week dinner x"
  • "The second time we came here for a meal and the second time we left disappointed. The double burger I got was definitely made with frozen cheap burger meat, hard, skinny and chewy."
  • "Food is well below average and is quite expensive in my opinion. Two of our party got the carvery and it was very dry, like it had been sat there all day. The others ordered off the main menu. Not much choice at all."
  • "A new pub that has been purposely built. It serves what you would expect on a pub menu, but with imaginative variations."

  • "Great place choices either to sit outside or inside large capacity with a choice of either to sit and watch sky sports or alternatively to sit somewhere quietly good quality service with very nice staff /nice people I give it a five star rating."
  • "Great new place...the staff were all lovely nothing was too much trouble ....my daughter and I had the carvery as did my little great granddaughter ...the food was the best carvery we have had in a long time....the meat was so tender and the taste was just how it should be Will definitely be going again xx."
  • "Very nice indeed. Like the three sizes of plates. Would be nice if they did pots of coffee. Love to see smiling staff, including chefs, so nice."

Cons:

  • "I felt that the interior where we were sat was a little feeling of a canteen (carvery area )."
  • "Tables not cleared and wasn't busy, asked if we wanted starters first or with meals said before then mains came first when questioned i was told as we was a party of 10 all food had to come together???"
  • "Very poor food ...6 of us had a carvery Turkey dry ,beef extremely dry ,gammon fair,mash 2 much butter and all veg dry...deserts we all had the same chocolate cake with cream ...it was extremely dry and the cream was stale I expect the cake had been sat out for hrs...certainly none of us will be back..."
  • "Visited The Fly Line this evening at 6pm with my husband. The staff were friendly the food was tasty and good value for money but the atmosphere did not lend itself to relaxed dining."
  • "Not the best..Booked on line asked for window table or booth, got niether , even though place was only half full (Friday evening 7pm) so we moved."
  • "Plates not warmed so meal soon goes cold The tureens that the vegetables are in the Bain Marie ,the coating in the dishes is all peeling off and doesn't look very nice."
  • "OK food and drink available here. Apple Pie served tastes brilliant but they are stingy with portion size."
  • "Staff plesent food only cooked on outside raw inside and cold manager not really bothered just refunded money long wait time 1 1/2 hrs when nearly empty Saturday dinner time."
