Booked a table for 2 people online for 2-15 PM, arrived 10 mins early , was told table wasn't ready and would come and inform us when it was , 20 mins later we had to ask was our table ready ! Ohh yes it was they had forgotten to inform us .... then we had to ask could we order ... not as is if it was packed more tables empty than in use , my husband ordered small fish and chips which was ok ( cant really go wrong with that !) I ordered chicken breast with chips , seasonal veg and red wine garlic and chilli sauce .... chicken was dry, tough and over cooked, seasonal veg ... 2 limp pieces of long stemmed broccoli a couple of pieces of leeks and green beans ... sauce was just like garlic gravy , chips were the best thing on the plate ...we had to ask could we order a drink.. I ordered a 175 ml glass of red wine and I had to ask them to top it up as it was short measured ... the waitress I suppose she's the manager came to take our plates and asked if everything was fine , I replied "It was ok !! , she replied back "well your plate is empty ", i replied " yes i was hungry " and she walked off .... overall not very pleased with our experience there after hearing good reports about it ....

Service could of been a bit quicker but they were busy than usual food was a bit cold but it was edible ?

Went there this afternoon the liver pate starter ( sliver)was meagre to say the least for £7 and the accompanying toast was cold , and it was 50 minutes before we got our main meal all very disappointing, I told the person who served us but just said I will tell the chef. £63 with a couple of drinks, been before when it was good but won't go again, the only bright note is the barman in the main bar is great.

A last minute find during a brief stay in the area - lovely staff and great, reasonably priced food. Exceptionally busy so glad we booked but would definitely return.

Brilliant service, wonderful homemade food.

Starters ok, nothing write home about, but had check back from staff. Main… Triple cooked chips definitely not triple cooked, barely cooked just literally shown the fryer. Chicken very dry, peppercorn sauce was bland very creamy no sign of cognac. Hubby dinner, steak over done, Diane sauce bland, very similar to my peppercorn sauce only difference my sauce had peppercorns chucked on the top! No check back from staff. Wine was great and when waitress came to collect plates we explained and she was great. Offered desserts for free. Been here a few times before and loved it but today was very disappointing.

The beers here are always well kept. The garden is nice and the bar staff are nice.Can't comment about the food as last time we had it was under previous owners.Kid-friendliness: It is kid friendly
I have lived in the local area for almost 5 years and have always wondered what The Travellers Rest was like and today was that day.Having called in on the off chance it was always fully booked so I decided to pre book and I'm so glad I did.The Service was excellent we were seated on arrival and asked if we wanted drinks straight away.Our food orders were taken within 5 minutes and our starter in front of us within 15 minutes.The Whole eating experience was a delight from beginning to end with locally sourced food cooked to perfection.A very fair priced 3 course meal with drinks for £75.I would highly recommend a visit if you're in the area but book first to avoid disappointment.

Party of 4, seated in a lovely spot just by the window. Charming restaurant and great food. The king prawns to have as a starter are fabulous ? lovely chips, fluffy with a slight crisp, and a lovely mix of veg. We had different meals and all 4 arrived at the same time. We've been a few times and would recommend the travellers. Staff are great and attentive and the pub itself is cosy and welcoming. We love going here. The bar staff need a mention too, Tim is fabulous and remembers your round, is very professional but friendly, you always feel welcome. Thanks for another great evening.Parking: Massive car park, I've never had a problem finding space.
