Pubs in Patchway

“We have been here several times now. Today was the best service but the three stars reflect on previous service, not today. Today,I would give David a 5 star! David was very helpful and attentive and provided us with table service. He checked on our table a few times to see if everything was ok. We were extremely hot! David spoke to the manager , who came over to explain the heating was off , air conditioning was on and he was trying his best to cool the establishment down.Our carvery tasted lovely. We ordered a standard size and it was a very good size plate.In fact, we ate far too much.We didn’t order a dessert as we were too full but David brought my daughter some cake for her birthday. However, the desserts are huge! And they have a large variety.We are always able to get a table at late notice.The children have a little section they can stretch their legs and escape from the table for a short time.We have always had to queue for our carvery but the queue goes down quite quickly.If you order from the app we have always had to remind staff about our drinks as they get left on the bar. This has happened the last three times we have visited. Previously we waited 45 minutes for our drinks.The young men serving the meat/ carvery are very hard working, working in hot temperatures, serving as fast as they possibly can ~ not stopping!It does get very busy here during Sunday lunch times as you’d expect.We always return here because the food is good and we can always get a table , last minute, for 8 of us.Thank you ,Parking: They provide electric hook up for my electric car .”

“I haven’t been here for a while but visited the Bowl for lunch with a visiting friend.Good amount of free parking, though we had fun with the touch screen car registration inside the pub, and a warm welcome. Loved our table as I’m partially deaf so it was great to be in a quieter section of the restaurant.The food was hot, well presented and most importantly, delicious! I would DEFINITELY have the fish cake starter again!!! The fish & chips portion was HUGE, and both were beautifully crispy & fluffy on the inside.The front of house team were friendly & attentive, and even warned us that there may be delays due to a busy kitchen. We didn’t notice the delay, it simply felt well-timed… at least for us… and the people next to us.We weren’t rushed and had a great meal and a chance to chat.Thank you!”
