   A delicious roast in a wonderful atmosphere. Great wine knowledge and reasonably priced for such a venue.

   Disappointing! No forewarning that they didn’t have the beef burger. The only cold main dish (salad) arrived 5 minutes after the other hot dishes. The ketchup arrived after the kids had finished their food. The steak was supposed to be medium. It was part med rare and part med well done.! We won’t be back again.

   This was a birthday lunch time treat and treat it was. I had attended here many, many years ago and it has since changed hands. The decor, music, festive decorations, log fire and overall ambience made it warm and welcoming. They were offering only the set festive menu, which worked well for us. There are several dining areas but because we had our dog, they seated us in the dog friendly area, which was tastefully decorated, warm and cosy. For starters we had the Scallops and the prawn cocktail. The Scallops were tasty and were wolfed down. The prawn cocktail was equally delicious with plenty of prawns, a lovely sauce and some heavily seeded bread with butter, delicious. For mains we both had the Turkey. Three large succulent cuts of Turkey sitting on top of really well seasoned carrots, green beans and mange tout. The roast potatoes were to die for, and plenty of them. All of this was covered in a delicious jus so we were certainly satisfied, oh and a side serving of gorgeously tasty cranberry. Alas, we had no room for pudding but we will certainly be back to sample them for sure! The host was particularly warm and welcoming and even discounted the sparkling english wine when I shared it was a birthday meal. Wonderful hospitality, fantastic food, would definitely recommend this neighbourhood gem.

   I had a very pleasant lunch, the food and service was very good. The waitress went out of her way to help us. Now that I’m aware that dogs are welcome I will let them know that I am allergic to them to make sure I am not seated too close.

   We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Very tasty food. Maybe portions a bit small. The pub is decorated beautifully. Service excellent.

    We waited over an hour for our main course after our starter. The delay was blamed on a party of 30 in the other room. When our meal finally came, one was plated incorrectly - the order stated that sauce should be on the side, and it wasn’t. It was returned to the kitchen. Both meals were only just warm when served. Others near us were experiencing similar delays. The situation was badly managed - it was neither the fault of the party of 30 nor of the rest of us. No apologies or updates were given, and no offer of adjustment to the bill etc. If they couldn’t handle a large party without others being inconvenienced they should not have accepted the booking. Such a shame and so disappointing
