"We were all disappointed and it did spoil our family meal which we only have once a year and we traveled 300miles for."
"Then we had to endure two bar staff standing next to our table talking loudly about their personal lives during our entire meal."
"Unfortunately with all 3 of our visits to the restaurant there were issues with our orders, things that were forgotten or just wrong."
"No word of a lie it was terrible the food was so bad."
"The cauliflower cheese was actually just plain boiled cauliflower, no cheese sauce, and the Yorkshire puddings looked very much like the frozen ones you can get from a supermarket."

"We waited over an hour for our food to be told the order hadn’t been placed with the kitchen."

Value
Pros:
"The food was very nice and very well priced."
"Prices are good. About £20 for the mixed grill, which is what you should pay for a decent plate of food."

"The Pytchley Hotel has a really good local reputation for reasonable pricing and well cooked food; steaks are a speciality."
"Prices are reasonable (but not cheap) and we eat there regularly, so it's worth going back to."
"Very friendly and cost effective way to explore the local historic sites."
Cons:
"Food good but rather expensive."
"Nice place, good service, food was way overpriced for what you got."
"£7 for 5 pieces of scampi was a little too rich for my taste."
"The smaller roast dinner was a portion for a 5 year old and cost a tenner!"
"Good menu and at reasonable prices. However, if I was the chef, I would have been too embarrassed to put the overcooked, grease laden chips out."
"We had to travel over 6 miles away to watch the European cup which meant the taxi cost as much as the hotel room."
"Food very good, staff very good, portion of cheese cake very stingy, looked like half portion for £7 ? Realistic price £2.50 !"
Atmosphere
Pros:
"Nice enough pub, well decorated in a modern and tasteful manner."
"It is a credit to the management and team that it works so well."
"Really nice place, the food was amazing."
"The staff were welcoming and attentive and the pub itself is very nice."
"Great atmosphere! Good food and friendly staff with lovely smiles."
"Has kept a lot of its charm, which adds to the pleasant ambience."
"Nestling, like a bird in the hand of a friendly giant called Westhaddon, we cross the threshold into the cosy interior to be met with the smiles of beautiful women."
Cons:
"From the drab interior that felt like a badly thought out dining room from the 90's."
"Nine of us went for a family Christmas meal yesterday.There wasn’t a lot of atmosphere."
"However, it just seems different now, has something changed in the last year or two? The portion seem to be quite stingy, especially with the veg which is now supplied on a small dish."
"The building itself is beautiful and traditional, food is ordered at the bar and being father's day there was a bit of a queue."
"Visiting family we went for dinner.. the service was good but the food average at best."
"No table service you have to order at the bar and for a place like this that for me let's it down a little."
"The restaurant was busy and the staff forgot to tell us that we had to order at the bar, this meant we were seated for 30 minutes before anyone came to us to inquire as to whether we wanted any help."
