Food Quality
Pros:
"The food is out of this world so good that we ate here both nights of our stay."
"Absolutely delicious food! The fish is always fresh and the house burger was just perfectly made."
"The food was beautifully done. Everything was local, fresh, and perfectly prepared."
"Amazing food particularly fish and chips and deserts."
"We had the beef pie and the fish and chips and both were absolutely delicious."
"Beautiful food, local real ales."
"The starters were beautifully present, and flavours well balanced, roasts were generously portioned, with high quality ingredients and perfectly cooked veg!!"
Cons:
"The gravy cooled it became ‘jellyfied ‘ and started to solidify on our plates."
"The bun was burnt and the burger had a lot of gristle in it."
"The carrots had a very strange taste, the green beans were under cooked as were the parsnips."
"Food quite overcooked, hard parsnips & potatoes and overdone tough meat."
"Limited menu. Roast chicken didn't have any chicken breast, potatoes not crispy enough and gravy a bit bland for my taste."
"Food...absolutely disgusting. My partner and I both went for the battered cod and chips. Came out and looked fantastic, partner got halfway into his and the middle was completely raw batter!"
"Food over cooked quantity over quality never works."
Service
Pros:
"Superb customer service."
"The staff could not do enough for us: very accommodating for a baby and a young child; and treated my dad on his birthday."
"The staff were so kind and the food was delicious."
"The staff were fabulous, amazingly polite and fantastically charming."
"Service and food are excellent here, we walked in (group of 9 adults and 5 kids) and were instantly greeted with happy smiling faces of the in-house team."
"Excellent, friendly and attentive service."
"The service was extremely good, all staff were kind, approachable and attentive."
Cons:
"Once we had eaten our meal we eventually got the eye of the waitress to ask for the bill."
"Service not very good at all today, slow and we had to go to the bar twice to ask for things which the waitress forgot to bring."
"Would have given 5 stars but we had to wait an hour between starters and main course. Not ideal with three kids..."
"We mentioned that we didn’t enjoy the meal and we thought that we had been forgotten. The waitress apologised and told us that they were understaffed as one of the staff hadn’t turned up; no concession was offered!"
"We asked for a wine list which was promptly delivered although no follow up for us to order, we had to call the waitress to order the wine."
"Highly disappointed with this place. We booked via the website and received booking confirmation. We arrived to the place in complete darkness and doors locked."
Ambiance & Facilities
Pros:
"Really fantastic village pub that's been done up with love and attention to detail."
"A wonderful place with great host Theo we had great food and the pub had a lovely atmosphere."
"We walked into the friendliest atmosphere that we have experienced in a village pub, probably for years!"
"The beer garden is great too, backing onto fields full of buttercups that lead up the hill to a 12th C church."
"It’s rare that you walk into a pub nowadays and people are immediately not only friendly but welcoming and pleased to see you."
"A great beer garden at the back."
"The rosemary/lavender garden is a perfect summer setting."
Cons:
"No tea facilities as staff member has allergy....really....coffee maker hardly any sugar milk....not great."
"Sadly, the promised wi-fi did not seem to be available and we found no login instructions in the room."
"The ventilation needs to be better as soon as you walk in the pub the smell of food hits you."
"Was a very cold day and pub fire could have been blazing a bit more."
"Dogs are allowed in, not something I agree with in a food establishment (guide dogs excluded)."
"No notes left or anything on the website stating it was closed."
