Treacle Mine

We booked a table for Sunday late afternoon/early evening, wasn't exactly necessary, busy but still tables available. Parking is good enough, remember to register your number plate at the bar if you do use the car park. So, sat immediately because we'd booked a table, a nice big printed a4 piece of paper with my entire name on and then left there with us after we'd been seated. Why not take it away and throw it? Instead leave it on the table? Okay.... Told us to go up to the bar to order when we're ready but, you can order from the table, which she didn't bother to mention. We were warned immediately they had no roasts at all... On a Sunday?!?! Use the QR code, sign up and get a free drink, also order from the "comfort" of your own table. A lot easier. Atmosphere wasn't great, there were sports on, so lots of loud patrons, screaming at a TV.... But worse, one waitress, talking to the next table, loud and just moaned!! Moaned about her hours and her colleagues. Unfortunately she wasn't wearing a name tag, otherwise I'd definitely put her name in here because she made the loud sports fans quiet and was just absolutely annoying and unprofessional. We ordered a bottle of white wine, it was chilled as it should but just brought and left on the table, no bucket, nothing to keep it chilled while it just sat there. So I asked for a bucket with ice to keep it chilled... See photo. The wine glasses were warm, warmer than warmer. Fair enough if they've been cleaned but you don't serve warm glasses to drink chilled wine from... Went for the cheapest wine because from what we'd experienced so far, we didn't have high expectations for the food and we weren't wrong. The starts came out like a fast food restaurant. As you can see, my calamari was in a bowl but dropped inside was some sauce from a paper cup you get at McDonald's also what they use at hospital to dispense medication. Calamari was plain and boring, best part was the sauce. I had a medium-rare steak, this was more medium than rare. There should be a little bit of blood and there was none. Oh well, the 3 onion rings it came with were actually nice! Not smothered in oil and didn't just taste like batter. Only good thing about the meal. The sweet potato fries are the WEIRDEST fries I've ever had! They were floopy and smooth. Never have I ever, had sweet potato fries taste, feel or look like this. The whole main was luke warm at best... My wife ordered the chicken fajitas and was given a sizzling plate and then a normal plate covered with the toppings, nowhere to construct her fajitas but managed to do it while holding everything in her hands. Why not give another plate?! It's not rocket science. Couldn't ask for an additional plate because no one bothered to come and check on things and why should we have to get up, go to the bar and chase someone while our food gets colder. Table next to us, sent back their chicken because it was raw inside. The waiter came back and told him they'll make him a fresh one but the chef said it was just a vein and it was completely cooked.... Ha. The best part of this so far loud and disappointing evening was the dessert. However, it doesn't come as described. The addional pimped out chocolate added is meant to be melted, instead it's just been thrown on. But like I said, still the best course. The brownie was warm, fully of chocolate flavour and not an overkill. Service was, other than the loud, short, dark haired woman, was fine. But seemed more interested socialising amongst themselves. No one bothered to ask how any course was, took a long time to clear our plates... Just all in all, a disappointment. There's plenty of outdoor seating, couldn't see any outdoor heating. Just saying. We will not be going back. Ever. 2 stars, just for that one brownie. Otherwise 0 stars all the way.

Excellent menu and the food we ordered was absolutely 5 star. Lovely bar/restaurant staff. The cocktails also went down a treat!

3 of us all had a lovely meal and desert yesterday. Food was well cooked with good portion size and also good prices. The brownie was delicious and the chocolate fudge cake was huge. The staff are all friendly, welcoming and very helpful. Would definitely return. Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcome Parking: Good sized car park

We came for dinner and a few drinks and it was lovely. Great atmosphere and great customer service from the team at the bar and waiters. Ben had been dealing with our whole table and was so polite and answered all questions and problems we had which was so helpful. We will definitely be coming back.

Booked at short notice for our works Xmas dinner. We were squeezed in a big thank you to Helen for that it was busy but it was a Friday night so to be expected. There was a wait for food due to how busy it was but we were told in advance. Starters came and were good then the main which was equally as good. Most of us went for the steak and our plates were clean when we'd finished. Went for the lemon meringue for dessert which was very nice. Live band playing who were good. Overall a really good experience and would recommend

Have eaten at the Treacle Mine on a number of times and the food has been excellent. There has been the odd occasion where there was an issue but has always been corrected. For most of the time food has been spot on. The menu is varied but still has the pub classics. The staff are all friendly, welcoming and helpful. Overall a good experience and great atmosphere. Would recommend.

Nice atmosphere, decent enough food and good choice of drinks at reasonable prices. Service was very good today all the bar staff were helpful and polite. Recommend the treacle sponge for dessert, mine was delicious. Also remember to enter your car registration if you drive there.

Normally a very good place to eat, but the last two times have been very poor with very slow service and mistakes in our orders. Yesterday was a birthday meal, but it actually put us off eating there again as we were served stone cold beans for my granddaughter and I had a burger meal, which I was open to see what is in there. This time I had what honestly looked like a burger that someone had returned as it was dry and only half a burger as it had been cut in two places. When I questioned it, I was told it was a whole burger until I pointed out the different colours where it had been sliced off. It then took 15 minutes to get my replacement which was a proper juicy burger.

Always welcomed by the staff came in for a late lunch and food was on point, steaks were cooked perfectly compliments to the chefs, Ben and Emma were lively and couldn't have done more us. Overall lovely pub with good food and good prices. Looking forward to coming back. Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options, says on the menu Kid-friendliness: The staff made a lovely effort with the kids, not just greeting the adults but a lovely genuine greeting for the kids too which made their experience nice and made them feel much more included Parking: Make sure you put your reg in on tablet by the bar, the staff were really good and told us about it straight away.

We phoned up to see if had room, from the car park as been turned away for another place, although plenty of seat! the person we spoke to couldn't of been more helpful, found space and was welcoming when we got there. Our waitress was very helpful and nothing was to much trouble. Would definitely go again. Parking: Lots of parking, just remember to put your registration in the machine when you go in
