Staff Service

Pros:

  • "Caroline looked after us and was amazing, nothing was too much trouble."
  • "The bar staff were pleasant and competent, all in all an enjoyable experience."
  • "Melanie usually serves us and is brilliant as is the food."
  • "Great service from Caroline, she let my little girl (5) borrow her own coloured pens."
  • "Our server, Jo, was very friendly and despite being very busy was very efficient."
  • "Staff are always welcoming and make a fuss of our baby- nothing is too much trouble."
  • "Service is first rate with staff being very attentive and punctual."

Cons:

  • "Service was good although there seemed, at times, to be a lack of communication between kitchen and bar."
  • "Service was the only let down very long between starters and mains a murmuring waiter."
  • "Although not busy at the time there were no plates out, no mugs, and no bread for toast, the staff looked disinterested and flustered."
  • "Waited for about 15mins by the desk for someone to come and seat us but most of the restaurant staff just seemed to stand around and chat."
  • "Although the food is as expected as pub type grub, the menu is changed and there are often deals to be had. Service is really quick and friendly and you don't feel like you are crowded into a space close to others."
  • "The food was not best quality.i had roast beef had to send it back as I could not cut through it, also the roast potatoes were not cooked. My husband had gammon egg, the egg was over done and the chips looked like they had been reheated a few times. Not one of the best meals we ever had"

Food Quality

Pros:

  • "Rooms are super clean, tidy comfortable beds."
  • "The food is excellent and I fear (you will be pleased to hear) that we will be frequenting the pub in future."
  • "For a chain pub, the quality of their meat is first class and would not be out of place at a top steakhouse!"
  • "The downside was that the beef was pretty chewy but that's down to personal preference."
  • "Food in itself was nice, good portions well cooked."
  • "Food was good too decent portion sizes and good quality."
  • "The food was very tasty and very food value."
  • "Food was delicious, good portions and hot."

Cons:

  • "There seemed to be a lack of communication between kitchen and bar over the availability of some dishes."
  • "The steak was okay until he poured the peppercorn sauce which had a real strange taste to it."
  • "The steaks were very poor quality, Gristle and sinew."
  • "The chicken was soggy and of a questionable providence."
  • "Our mains were brought out before our starters as it seemed the waitress forgot to write them down."
  • "The food was not best quality.i had roast beef had to send it back as I could not cut through it, also the roast potatoes were not cooked."
  • "Veggies were microwaved. Salads covered in a weird sugary gloop and bagged Parmesan cheese."
  • "The food was good and very filling, gravy tasted a bit powdery but that was probably my personal preference as my partner really enjoyed it."
