The place seemed quite busy and lively. We were shown to our reserved table swiftly. My friend and I were chatting so difficult to gauge if we waited for a long time for service. Our waitress was young and possibly new but she was helpful and kind.My friend chose pâté starter, I had margarita pizza. I had an elderflower/Prosecco spritz, my friend non alcoholic elderflower.Saddest thing was they had run out if the pudding I chose, so I had something else. My friend chose mini pudding with a coffee.I would say that the food we had was very nice. (Right now I am eating reheated pizza left over from yesterday, still very tasty,!)We were left undisturbed without being encouraged to pay and leave which was nice. So we left when we were ready.The bill was reasonable.I had chosen this place because it was 45 mins away for both of us coming from different directions and also because it was dog friendly.We enjoyed our first visit and would certainly return.

The service was quick and friendly as always, great quality food and delicious cocktails, the only room for improvement was that we had to ask 3 times for the cheque, other than that it was sublime as always. An all round great local pub.

Had a very good experience this evening for Sunday dinner! Excellent service by all, Sam was very helpful with changing our reservation to accommodate us.

Fantastic food however...we came because we'd signed up online and had an email saying we had a welcome gift that we could use on our next visit. Absolutely gutted and very annoyed to be told at the till that the terms and conditions stated that the offer could only be used 24 hours after signing up. So we paid £20 more than we expected and we only came because of the offer. Totally understand it was in the ts&cs but it's very dishonest to not mention that fact in the original email. Spoilt what was our first visit in over 3 years and has put us off coming again due to issues around trust.

Great food. The new set up in the entrance is good. A little disappointed that a familiar couple who seemed to know the bar staff were served each time before us after order after us and they had there table cleared and dessert menus handed to them. We had to remind the staff we were there. 1 table away!!

There was a three of us, booked a table for 4.30pm on 7th of March. I left a comment on the booking to say that we are at a funeral on that day, so we may arrive a little early, as unsure what time the service would end. The table was ready on our arrival and the dining area was pretty empty. Our main courses were a bit of a let down. I had fish and chips, there was hardly any fish in a fish, mainly batter, chips way overcooked if not burnt. Two of my other friends went for chicken breast in mushroom sauce, unfortunately both of their dishes were slightly cold. Although plates were extremely hot, no warning when passing! There was no staff who came to check on us or ask if we wanted anything else. I went to the bar to order another drink, but even behind the bar there was no one to serve me straight away. No one checked if we want anything else once the dinner plates got collected. We got rudely interrupted by a member of a staff at 5:30pm (bare in mind we booked the table from 4:30pm - I would imagine we had that table secured for about 2hours) „you’ve had everything now, I need this table back as we are fully booked tonight”. Not even „excuse me…”- he has literally interrupted our conversation and jumped straight in to say we need to leave! In my opinion the member of the staff was rude and arrogant, I believe his name may be Angus. I totally understand business is business, but there are way more polite ways of letting your customers know the table/area is booked. He could have said that we could move to the bar area or at least check if we are actually done, not telling us we have had everything now and we have to leave. Please note that the restaurant as well as the bar area was still looking pretty empty with many free tables. Also none pre-warned us that we will need to leave by certain time. We would then happily just move to the bar area as we understand how the industry works. Instead we ended up going somewhere else. Yes, I have paid for my friends dinner in advance, as I didn’t want them to fight me. Although me paying for their dinners did not mean we were done. Next time maybe check with your client, not assume… The staff’s behaviour was absolutely out of order in my opinion and people like that affect the business/business reputation. It was very disappointing experience and the staff attitude was not what we needed after the funeral. Under a different circumstances we would probably asked to speak with a manager, but we all felt emotionally exhausted and heartbroken. We simply just wanted to have a nice time together to raise a glass in our friend’s memory.
