Went here yesterday for our Christmas lunch I’ve had many a roast dinner at the mops but yesterday was delicious The roast dinner and dessert were fantastic but the starter the chicken pate with toasted bread although I ate most of it the presentation was awful Two round balls of the pate dumped on top of two slices of nice bread one of which had a dollop of cranberry sauce on which I couldn’t butter if I’d wanted to it was a bit slap dash but I understand it was a busy period but I would have been happy with one slice of bread cut in triangles on the side with a blob of cranberry jam not a lot of effort required I mean who wants to eat two slices of toast before a roast dinner. (Something to think about) All in all I had a lovely meal served by lovely staff in a lovely pub which was a lovely experience. Well done to all the staff you worked really hard to make our day special

Went with friends for Xmas meal inthe evening. Sadly, like all McMullen pubs, the quality of food had declined since lockdown. The liver pate was without seasoning and bland (a jam like substance on top had to be removed as I have a low sugar diet) . The main course was similarly tasteless. Add to this, the service was poor and inattentive.

We had a lovely Christmas dinner at The Mops and Brooms on Thursday. Imogen served our table and was so helpful and welcoming. All the staff were really friendly and the food was really tasty. Thank you for a great evening.

I come to see family member from the South coast every month or so and it really is one of my most favourite places to go. Usually 2 of us sometimes 3. Relaxing, food always excellent. All staff excellent. Debbie yesterday, as she always is, is friendly, professional, caring and so lovely and even though infrequent visits, she remembers you, weighs up the occasion and reacts accordingly. She is a really asset to the business, but then all the staff are so good and obviously a very well run business who deserves all the lovely reviews. Well done and I will be back! Linda

Food was delicious, atmosphere was lovely and the service by Lotty was impeccable. We had three young kids with us and they were so accommodating with them and looked after them (and us) so well! Recommend!

If you like surround sound kids shreaking and banging etc (I am aware this is what kids do) this place is for you! I had asked for a quiet area but there isn't one. The place is huge so I'm sure they could have a child free area. It was so bad we didn't stay for dessert, a first for me. Such a shame, we had high hopes.

From the moment my partner and I walked into the mops and brooms, we felt very welcome by the amazing staff! Lottie served us,very attentive and friendly! The food was amazing (my partner had two roast beef lunches!) Will be going back there very soon

Fantastic service and all the staff are very nice and helpful. We love coming here for lunch or dinner. They are good for the children too. They give them colouring to do.

Booked a table for 4pm Sunday. Looking forward to having a roast dinner and a few drinks. Arrived on time but was disappointed to be told that they had run out of roast dinner options. We left and went to our local The White Horse restaurant where we had an excellent roast dinner.
Excellent little gem! Tucked away next to a beautiful field of horses, brilliant atmosphere lovely staff and friendly customers. We had a great visit and would return again. Thank you for your hospitality!

Very friendly popular country pub. Good food and service. Staff helpful. In quiet location with seating outside and kids play area. Plenty of parking around far side of pub and field next to it had beautiful horses in.

We visited for lunch with our two grandchildren. Great selection on 3 menus, adult, children and specials. Lotty served us and was so friendly and amenable with the children’s requests. We have visited a few times, sadly it was raining today, but the garden is great for kids in the summer.

This might seem harsh but I experienced and witnessed today was just sick. We went in today to eat at around 17:30. We ordered mains and it was burgers and fries. Mine and my son's came out and we proceeded to season, take out the tomatoes and onions and squish the burger down to chow down. Waitress came back and said it was for another table. We explained what we had already done to the food and she went away and said it was fine. She came back in about 2 mins and said she was told to take it and give it to another table. AND SHE DID! I had eaten a few chips my son and I both man handled the burger. We saw the table she then gave it to who then ate the food! My wife saw our food being brought out of the kitchen so our food was okay. We will not be returning to this establishment as this was frankly disgusting. I must stress that this was not the waitresses fault but more the kitchen manager. Mops and Brooms may contest this review but we know what we saw. The food was also excessively greasy and the burger was tasteless but that was the least of our concerns.
