We had really fond memories of this pub, which makes this visit even more disappointing. The service was very poor from the start. We visited at lunchtime and were given the lunchtime menu, but when the bill arrived we had been overcharged. When we questioned it, we were told the waitress thought we had ordered from the main menu because the portion size was bigger — which made no sense as the dishes we ordered weren’t even listed on the main menu.nTo make matters worse, I ordered a cappuccino and received a cold latte instead. The food also took a very long time to arrive and unfortunately wasn’t very nice when it finally did.nIt’s a shame because this used to be a place we enjoyed visiting, but after this experience we certainly won’t be returning. I wouldn’t recommend booking here or wasting your time.
Don't book!! Booked 2 months ago for new years eve. Turned up after spending £20 for taxi and they had closed kitched at 6pm. Table booked and confirmed. Even received a confirmation earlier same day for 7 pm!! Walked over 30 mins to find something else. No apologise from pub. Will not go back staying at a hotel so not local.
Had seen BeardMeetsFood on his You Tube channel take on the Mixed Grill challenge at this pub and decided to pay a visit for lunch.nCar park to the side. Small step into the pub but a small metal ramp had been added which should allow access for anyone using a wheelchair although a couple of inner doors might prove a bit of an issue without a bit of assistance. Once inside though could see no significant problems for anyone with restricted mobility.nWe were warmly greeted on entry. When we said we were there to get something to eat we were asked to pick a table and our server would be over to take our order. Menus were supplied and the specials menu on the wall pointed out to us. Quite impressed with the variety of dishes available.nI went for the 10 oz sirloin steak and my brother choose the beef stroganoff from the specials menu. Also ordered some extra onion rings. For drinks I went with a bottle of Malbec and my brother a pint of lemonade. I liked the wine list. Not a massive choice but a nice range with 4 reds and 4 whites and then some rose and sparkling. Very competitively priced as well. The Malbec was £15.95 and a really nice red. Just a note though. It’s on the menu as a wine from Chile. It’s Argentinian. But ignore me being pedantic. It was a lovely wine and affordable. So many places today charging £25 plus for a bottle of wine and close on £10 for a 250ml measure. It’s nice to enjoy a nice wine with a meal without feeling you are being overcharged.nOverall I think the prices were very reasonable apart from one item. When we got our bill at the end the lemonade had been missed off. We raised this and it was added. Have to say we thought £3.00 for a lemonade was a little expensive especially when everything else was really competitive price wise.nBeing totally honest I was a little disappointed with the presentation of my meal. I think a bigger plate might have helped. The plate should also have been warmed. Mine was cold so my steak was already cooling as I worked my way through it. It was also over seasoned for me. I like salt and love black pepper but there was too much on my steak. It didn’t impact on the flavour but rather the texture. It felt a little gritty as I chewed it. Despite that it was a good sized piece of steak and a decent thickness. The chips were fresh and tasty. So nice not to be served frozen chips. Same with the onion rings. A couple were a little under done for me but overall very crispy and tasty. You got half a mushroom. But it was huge and more than enough. It had a strong and distinctive taste to it which I liked.nOur server was friendly, attentive and polite. Came over several times to ask if everything was alright. Even asked if it was ok to open a window before doing so.nNo room for dessert although I noticed they do a cheese board so might be an option when we visit again because I would certainly give this place another try. It’s really nice to see smaller, independent places like this offering something a bit different. And to be welcomed as a customer and not just a tick on a spreadsheet back at corporate HQ. So many places now are run by the big breweries and are clones of each other. We will end up with nothing but Mcpubs offering the same sort of food straight from the freezer into the micro wave if places like this don’t get the publics support. Hopefully, they will get the custom which will allow them to thrive and continue to offer something a little different if not unique.nWhich brings me back to the Mixed Grill challenge. Whilst we were there a customer did turn up to try it. The pictures don’t do it justice or illustrate just how big the portion is. It’s a monstrous amount of food and I wouldn’t even think of attempting it. I hope he was successful in his attempt and, if not, he enjoyed taking on the challenge. But for those with big appetites and / or a competitive streak it could be worth it because for £40 you get a massive quantity of food. And you never know should you beat the challenge your picture will end up on the wall of fame next to the Beard.
Went in on Sunday, got seated straight away. Staff lovely, drinks spot on and food was amazing! My partner especially loved the hunters chicken, we will definitely be coming back!
