"The service was very warm and friendly."
"The staff were, friendly and attentive and the service was prompt but not rushed."
"The staff were very knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about the food and producers."
Cons:
"Successive courses were rolled out with barely a pause and this left us feeling rushed and manipulated by their schedule."
"Service was great again but the vegan option was a bit sub-standard. Felt a bit ostracised when given a kids plate."
"The staff were generally quite polite and attentive, although my preferred drink was out of stock."
"Staff were very pleasant and helpful but a bit uninterested."
"Plates were sat on the table for around half an hour post eating and the staff were abrupt, unwelcoming and arrogant."

Food Quality
Pros:
"Perfect for a special occasion."
"The roast beef was cooked rare and to perfection; the pork was beautifully done and the roast potatoes were great."
"Good food great service in the depth of Somerset countryside."
"The floral finishing touches added texture and taste to a fresh dish."
"Super delicious 3 course roast today."
"Truly stunning food! The best scallops I have ever eaten."
"The food was delicious, the wine was very nice and the services exemplary."
Cons:
"The beef was a bit too chewy for me, the red cabbage overstewed."
"The potatoes seemed like they had been hanging around for a couple of hours or so after cooking and just kept warm or re-heated making them a bit dried out."
"Food was odd for my palate."
"Overall, it was very much overpriced and nothing exquisite."
"The choux had the consistency of bread…"
"Very average food, certainly not Michelin star quality."
"Meat fatty and lacked flavour, roast potatoes lacked any colour or taste."
Value for Money
Pros:
"Prices are really reasonable given the quality and the experience."
"Pricey but well worth it would eat here more often if I could afford it."
"Saying this place is great value doesnt do it justice at all, 3 courses for 2 plus drinks for under 80 pounds for food as good as this speaks for itself."
"They also do a more reasonably priced ‘pub food menu’."
"The price is always a bit on the treat end for us, but always absolutely worth the money and never feels too expensive for what you get."
"The price tag on this will seem very reasonable especially to anybody visiting from London."
"For the quality of food, cooking and atmosphere, great value."
Cons:
"We could accept the prices a little easier if the experience was less rushed."
"It's charging top dollar & delivering mediocre so there's a lot to improve on."
"Overall, it was very much overpriced and nothing exquisite."
"Extortionate costs for some meals re; steak (£70 for two) so few options at normal pricing."
"Thought the food was good but very expensive for a roast £30 a head."
"£150 for 3 starters, 1 main, 1 dessert and cheese with a bottle of wine, some water and elderflower really is taking the Michael."
"For the money very, very, overpriced."
Ambiance & Setting
Pros:
"The venue has retained the charm of a pub, but lifted it way beyond 'pub grub'."
"We had a lovely meal here, arrived early and had a few cocktails which we enjoyed in the beautiful quiet garden with nice views."
"The surroundings are quite pleasant where (in summer) you will enjoy the view of the fields outside."
"Wonderful gastro pub set in well tended grounds with glorious views."
"The venue is superb, lovely country location and the building itself very well kept, stylish and comfortable interior."
"The setting is beautiful and the food is top notch."
"What an absolutely stunning dining area and immaculate garden with beautiful countryside views!"
Cons:
"Table was very small for four people as had to clear everything off to put more on."
"Despite a booking for two and a near empty restaurant when I arrived, we were seated on a tiny table."
"It's a small, wiggly old building but with wheelchair access."
"The place is a bit weird, a tent with underfloor heating and a great view but somehow the whole space has no soul."
"Restaurant (as opposed to bar area) cramped with view over the car park."
"Only thing that surprised me was the torn & stained carpet."
"There's a level of pretentious that this place attracts and that's a shame."
