Used to be a great place to eat but now it’s like they have given up on the food and they look so miserable and menu is so bad I wanted a steak and they didn’t have any with mac and cheese you use to get garlic bread and now you don’t won’t be eating there anymore such a shame and this is there response to my review the audacity To text me on my private numberGood morning. My husband pointed out your review on Google? I don't understand it? We had sold out of steaks? We do garlic bread? Why is it such a nasty review? We were all kind to you.? I have vascular dementia, I really struggle but I try to continue and work hard for a living, I claim no benefits, just because it was quiet when you were here you claim we have lost interest in food service? Thanks for the nail in my coffen. People like you make me wanna end my life. It's a review that's what it's for so how dare you message me on my private phone number and say this anymore and I will get you you done for harassment Good morning.

A fantastic traditional local pub with amazing food. Generous portions and all cooked to order. A short walk from New Place Hotel.

Staying locally and went here for dinner on 2nd November 2023. The sirloin steak was melt-in-the-mouth. Surroundings comfortable, staff friendly and attentive. Couldn't fault the service.

Frequently used this pub over the years - always been a warm welcome from all members of the staff and the locals. Food is always good and the portion sizes are enormous! Nice big open garden space with lots of seating in the sun. Pool table in the conservatory area and Jukebox has a good selection of music - yet to find something that isn't one there!

Such a lovely plate of food, I come to this pub regularly and the food is fantastic, such big portions and just like your Mum’s cooking. Great staff, nice atmosphere. So good that there’s a pool table and jukebox. Will be back!!!!

Doesn’t really seem like it’s a pub that sells food , they do have a menu and the food is really nice , but I seemed to be the only one eating it , I found it to be quite expensive for what it was , like the draft coke being £3.50 , and hunters chicken at £17 odd , portion size I can’t complain at , the guy behind the bar wasn’t overly friendly, I felt it’s a very much locals pub , but having a huge hotel just round the corner you would think they would be more welcoming in the chance of actually getting business of the back of them .

Enjoyed a lovely meal here. The staff were friendly and welcoming. There was a varied menu and my husband was delighted to see a number of vegetarian options. The portions were substantial. Overall the meals with a couple of drinks each proved very good value. A great find just a short walk from the hotel where we were staying that provided a good option to enjoy a pleasant meal without breaking the bank!

I think the kitchen was closing when we arrived but they pushed the boat out and served us a lovely meal with all the trimmings. I had the Steak and Kidney pie and I could not walk afterwards as I was stuffed. My wife had a huge Burger and chips and that too was extremely filling. Lovely friendly staff too. I had a couple of drinks whilst there and really enjoyed the experience.

I have nothing but praise for this place, the staff are very friendly and accommodating and the food quality and choice is beyond belief. We normally visit the area every couple of months and always end up at Sam’s for a midday meal and we have not been disappointed yet I thoroughly recommended it to anyone if you are in the area. The one thing that disappointed me this time was to hear that they are closing the kitchen so many times during the week due to lack of trade If I lived in the area I would eat there a could of times a week and definitely on a Sunday their roasts have to be seen to be believed. I hope all goes well for this Public House because I will definitely eat there when I visit the area next time.
