The Windhover

Fantastic food. Great service. Lovely country pub. Would 100% recommended making a visit to The Windhover. Such a lovely pub with wood fires and an all-round good atmosphere. Food selection is good, price is fair and quality is very good. We took our newborn daughter and the staff were also very accommodating.

very much improved. over the years the windhover has had its ups and downs but as of today the food we ate was delicious and highly recommended. great atmosphere and very busy this pub has always been a local favourite. delicious food and great staff

We had a wonderful evening here last night. Amazing food and lovely staff. A nice romantic meal out for my Birthday. The mushroom starter was so tasty it was gorgeous, and a very generous helping too. Followed by a Pork belly meal and Pavlova with cream and berries.

Went here for Christmas dinner Nice pub , friendly atmosphere, great bar staff/waitresses Food was good but small portions on starters , guess for Xmas dinner a lot to serve too Enjoyed the mains and puddings

Really impressed by the refurb and launch event. Had previously been quite disappointed with our experience, but thought it was worth another try. Despite the restaurant being quite empty, we did find the service to be quite slow. When the food did arrive, most of it wasn't warm. We had ordered halloumi skewers, but when it arrived it wasn't a skewer but a whole slab of halloumi that had been grilled. The chips weren't particularly warm either along with the prawns. We did speak to the manager who was very apologetic. He had originally offered to get us some warmer chips, only to tell us they had actually run out of chips. For the area and the quality of both the food and the service, I'd say it is very overpriced. I really hope they do fix the issues because it is a great location and has real potential. For the time being, though, we won't be coming back any time soon.

My daughter and I had brunch here yesterday. I'm a fussy eater, however it was the best vegetarian breakfast I have ever tasted. Beetroot hash was lovely, we will definitely be back, Thankyou

We had the most delicious meal. The service and atmosphere was great too

Had meal there a few days ago and enjoyed. Today, No food being served unless you book on app. Tried on app and it says fully booked. Really? I think they were short staffed and used app to close out to food. Literally the place was empty. Disappointed. Next time just say short staffed

The last time I visited here was for lunch before the latest refurb, so decided to visit again for an evening meal. We booked a table for 8pm on Saturday evening. On arrival it was busy at the bar and had to wait a while for someone to arrive to seat us at a table. The restaurant wasn't busy at all and had a choice of tables to sit at. We ordered drinks and the waitress was very pleasant, professional with a warm smile. We ordered one pate and a side bread to share between the three of us. It was plenty albeit the pate portion was on the small side. For mains two of us ordered the Forestiére Chicken Breast, stuffed with spinach & mozzarella, wrapped in pancetta with a wild mushroom sauce served with spinach and fries. I oredered the Slow-cooked Pork Belly, with chive mash, green beans, apple sorbet, crackling and a red wine jus. The meals were delicious, hot, fresh tasting and just the correct portion sizes. For desserts we ordered a Vanilla & Orange Crème Brûleé, served with home-baked shortbread biscuits. A Baked Orchard Tart with apples, blackberries and rhubarb baked in sweet pastry and vanilla sponge served with blackcurrant curd and custard. A latte just for myself. All desserts again were lovely and all finished. The meal came to just over £100, including 4 glasses of wine and a pint of shandy. No sneaky service charge which was a nice omission. Overall we enjoyed the evening in a really nicely decorated venue and friendly staff. It was really quiet for a Saturday evening but that could be due to the cost of living crisis starting to bite. We will be back!

Awful experience today. We came here for Sunday Dinner a couple of years ago and it wasn't good, food nor service, but having seen it had been refurbished and a new menu, we decided to try it again today for lunch and give it another go. Wish we hadn't. Artisan breads were completely stale. Got given more but were still stale, just hotter than the first lot where they'd been heated up. My husband ordered the pulled beef hash, which had literally about 3 strands of beef, the rest was just potato and egg. After complaining, we were told the chef said that was the right amount he'd given as they're limited on how much to give and need to portion it out. This meal was just under £9. My fish finger wrap was literally just that . Fish fingers, greasy as you like in a wrap. No extras, like salad inside, just greasy wet battered fish and a conjealed, warm, tartare sauce with skin on fries that were clearly from a packet. Probably an absolute max of £2.50 worth of ingredients for £9.50. We were so disappointed and disliked the food so much we just had to leave. With the cost of everything going up, this was a luxury for us and was a complete waste of £30. Never again will we visit
