Menu Variety and Choices
Pros:
"It’s so nice going to a pub and not having to worry about which menu choices are vegan, because EVERYTHING is!"
"Absolutely stunning food! It’s so nice being spoilt for choice with the menu!"
"The menu had everything from traditional pub food to Chinese and Indian options."
"Fab pub with an incredible menu offering the best selection of vegan food I've seen in one spot!"
"Being vegan its always a hassle scrolling through the menu trying to find something different from the usual plant based burger. But at the Queen Inn you don't have that problem as everything including drinks are vegan."
"One of the best places for Vegan food. The menu is amazing, huge portions & delicious."
"Totally exceeded our expectations, the staff were amazing and the food choice and quality outstanding, so nice to see plant based eating so good."
"Great pub with an even greater premise - an all vegan menu. As a meat eater, I can honestly say you won't be disappointed by the standard of vegan food here."
Cons:
"I’m not a fan of pub dining so I doubt we will return. Sad really as the food deserves a better platform to win return custom."
"I think in hindsight I should’ve chosen the garlic mushroom pasta instead of the vegan bacon and chicken, but I want to stress that this is my personal preference!"
"I had the carbonara and my partner had the chicken burger. Both were delicious and huge portions but my stomach didn’t agree completely, I think because since becoming veggie I much prefer vegetable-based dishes."
"Sometimes you just want some pub grub and this is the perfect place to do this while still staying plant based! I overheard people commenting that they wanted more 'vegetable' based food rather than plant based meat equivalents."
"Service and ambience excellent. However, I cannot say the food was top draw. The Queen's Inn Burger was sandwiched into a poor quality tasteless bun accompanied by pointless coleslaw and soggy chips."
"The cheese had to be scraped from a burger as well. Childrens chips were just chopped up skin on potatoes and my son didn't eat them. Might be nice to have more descriptions on the menu as I wasn't expecting cheese all the way through a lasagna or skin on chips."
"The meal was freshly made and plenty of it. I had the crispy beef and could not have told you that it wasn't actually beef. My wife and daughter thoroughly enjoyed their veg steak and thought it was the best they had."
"Perhaps they could revamp the menu to include less fake meats and find recipes that make vegetables the star of the show? After all veganism at it's core is about avoiding animal based products so why bother trying to copy them?"
Service and Staff
Pros:
"Service was excellent. Dog friendly too. Very friendly team, and a lovely owner also."
"Staff were super friendly! Dog friendly pub!"
"The staff is really nice and friendly. This is a dog friendly restaurant as well."
"Staff are friendly and attentive, I got the booking time wrong so we were 30 mins late but they fitted us in without any bother."
"All of the staff were friendly and talkative which customer engagement perspective is a massive thing for me."
"All the staff are really friendly, the service is top notch."
"Service was friendly, food arrived quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to anyone I know whether they're plant based or not."
"Fantastic vegan food! The portions were huge and the crispy chilli beef was unbelievable. We’d booked a table and had to make a few adjustments on the booking because of travel plans and the staff were so lovely and accommodating!"
Cons:
"Fantastic concept and delicious food let down by incredibly slow, albeit very friendly service."
"Service was excellent food very good, and good value for money, will be going again."
"Food was pretty good and represented a reasonable quality for the higher pub grub price. Paying these kind of prices I would expect a great level of service and a nice atmospheric dining experience."
"Visited on the 20th July and had to wait well over on hour for food, had to enquire as to where our food was."
"Served at door so couldn't see what we wanted. Ordered Jack Daniels and brandy with coke but there is no way they gave us coke or Pepsi.... looked like coloured water and tasted like it which ruined the taste of drinks."
"Left disappointed this time. Been to the Queen Inn lots and have always recommend to friends and family to go there. But the Sunday Lunch isn't up to standard."
"Overall i like this pub and its a great pub but i went there on Saturday and had a whole pint of pineapple cider tipped on me while at the bar by a male member of staff."
"We were there for my grandaughter s 11th birthday.My daughter goes there with her family but my husband and myself don't go there.My husband and daughter had 1/2chicken and it was hard and overcooked so was my daughters."
