    Booked a table last minute. The pub was busy but that didn’t affect the level of service. The staff were excellent, especially Monika who went over and above to help. The food was lovely. All round great afternoon

    The service is always great here but the food was disappointing. There is a new menu and the choice is not nearly as good. Have to order chips separately from Burgers and the chips are a fiver!!

    We come up from London a few times a year to see family and always have dinner at the Stamford each time. The food is exceptional, the quality is superb and is clearly made with a lot of care. Today I had the most tender roast turkey I have ever had, the whole roast with best I’ve had in a long time. The pricing is reasonable and the staff are just wonderful! We will continue to come and eat at the Stamford! Thank you! ♥️
