"Very good service. Beautiful surroundings."
Cons:
"Had to go and find a staff member after a while because nobody had come to take an order, not even for drinks."
"Although the Sunday roasts were served within 5 minutes of being ordered (too quickly if you ask me...), the service was generally slow."
"Service was quite possibly the worst I have ever experienced."
"No cutlery was given to us so we had to ask and no check back during our meal."
"The service was slow, we waited ages to be asked for drinks, which then took ages to arrive."
"The service has much to be desired we waited 30 min for our order the be taken and then another 25 min for our drinks to come out."
"Service was very efficient, but almost a little too quick and we felt as if they were trying to hurry us out."

Cons:
"The 2 steaks were stringy and the well cooked one was incinerated."

"The steak was advertised as coming with cherry vine tomatoes but came with just half a tomato."
"I had the pie which looked great, but after removing the lid I was disappointed to see the pie was more pie than filling."
"The roast potatoes seemed like they were deep fried, were black, and like bullets."
"Hard parsnips, undercooked roasties and turkey that was dry."
"The roast meals were luke warm and the vegetables appeared to be left overs, the potatoes very hard."
Ambience
Pros:
"There was a good ambience and the staff were friendly."

"The pub itself is a wonderful example of the beautiful traditional English hostelry."
"Lovely country pub/restaurant with lots of tables outside."
Cons:
"Went for a Christmas meal with my friends and I was highly disappointed... they were very unfriendly and unapproachable."
"Covid precautions lacking, food average but vegetarian and vegan menu very much reduced."
"Very little covid friendly protection for anyone still trying to shield."
"They should vet the people who turn up in the garden just to get drunk, and swear loudly in front of people trying to enjoy their Sunday afternoon."
"Check out the flying brollies that catch you on the back of your head when the wind gets up."
"Part of the vintage inns chain. I’ve been to a few restaurants since they opened up; and felt this wasn’t the best handled for post COVID - the staff weren’t wearing masks; no sign of track and trace at the venue."
"The menu's were creased and had sticky bits on them which is something I hate because of the germs."

"The food was delicious and reasonably priced."
"Food is good."
Cons:
"Prices of the food were a little on the high side compared to other places."
"Very expensive for what you get."
"Seriously £5.50 for a pint of Landlord ale? That's just pure greed."
"The food, I ordered fish and chips, wasn't worth the money £13.50."
"All three of us thought the main meals were expensive for what was served."
"The prices were high for what you would have expected for a vintage inn, so it didn’t feel like good value."
"Shame the pub is nice with great staff but poor quality food at a high price."
