Best Fun Restaurants in Ripley

It is an awesome restaurant with excellent food and service from the entire team! My brother and his partner were visiting from Ireland so I really wanted a nice pub to gather the whole family together and this was the perfect place. We were a group of 8 and had a lovely meal together. I couldn't believe how good the Sunday roast was! Service with a smile, beautiful interior of the pub with ample space and a great atmosphere. Will definitely be returning. Spencer

Everything about this restaurant is outstanding. It was my wife's birthday so we were with the family and the day after, we are all still talking about the experience we had. The overall conclusion was that we had the best food we have had in a long time. The only improvement would be to have slightly more room around the table we had for 7.

Excellent wholesome food in a pleasant environment

We first came here a few months previously after a visit to the theatre, and the food was so good we decided to come back for our Xmas meal. The food was outstanding again, I don't think I have ever eaten better in a pub. I had the duck rillette, followed by the venison, ending with the Xmas pudding. All of it was mouth watering, especially so the venison. The table service was exemplary, the staff were obviously taking pride in their work, and rightly so, given the very high standard of the food. One of our party has a food intolerance and the manager Anna (apologies if I have remembered her name incorrectly!) was most helpful. The overall service given was of the highest standard. My only criticisms were really out of the control of the restaurant staff. One was the very high background noise level, but it was the Friday before Xmas! The other revolved around the lack of Xmas menu choice for vegans, especially in the desserts section, where the only vegan option contained peanuts, the most well-known food allergen. The kitchen was restricted by the chain owners' set menu. Greene King take note!

A friendly, good neighbourhood Italian. Good ambience and friendly staff
