Have been here twice and the experience has been the same both times. The place is too cold (I went prepared this time in tights and a jumper). We pre-ordered, but the food arrived 50 minutes after we had sat down. When the food does arrive, it is delicious and the service, when it happens, is really good. I wouldn't choose to go back because of the cold and the waiting, which is a shame as the food is tasty and the staff are lovely.

We had a cosy dinner for 2 last night at The Castle. We shared the belly pork with Mac n cheese and the garlic mushrooms for starters, they were absolutely delicious. Then we both had the steak pie which has been excellent every time I’ve had it, light flaky pastry, tender beef and a mouthwatering savoury sauce. A lovely bottle of Malbec to accompany the meal, a slice of white chocolate cheesecake followed by a chilly starlit walk home rounded the night off beautifully. Thank you to all the staff who are always very welcoming ☺️

Lovely comfortable and very clean . Attended after a funeral . The food and service was very good. Cleanliness was excellent. Not a speck of dust anywhere. Everything was spotlessly clean.

Oh my goodness - we’ve been fortunate enough to try a few new restaurants lately but none compare to The Castle Inn. Always comfortable, cosy and welcoming… staff are superb, attentive when needed but not intrusive allowing you to enjoy your meal. The food tonight was on another level … I had the roast belly pork and partner had the tandoori rump of Welsh lamb .. both dishes were so tasty, cooked to perfection and fresh (no skimpy portion sizes either) … both had garlic mushrooms to start. It’s always well booked up but the chef/owner Jon accommodated us at short notice ? if you like great food, reasonable prices, good service and quality then you won’t be disappointed …… We will be returning again and again to this Gem ?

My husband and I found this little gem of a place on trip advisor and what a gem it is! The food was amazing, my husband had the pie and I had the chicken and it did not disappoint. We also took advantage of the free cheesecake dessert offer they had on which was a lovely gesture. I did think that as it was free it might have just been a frozen one but how wrong I was, it was homemade and delicious like the mains we’d had eaten. The service and the decor were fab aswell! We can’t wait to go back and eat by the open fire!

Excellent service, lovely friendly staff and the food was fantastic. Booked for a family birthday meal, in total 19 of us ! Considering we were a large party, all our meals come out together and piping hot ! Highly recommend.

We were a party of 12, all 12 absolutely enjoyed the food, service was very friendly and didnt have to wait long, which is great when you have hungry children in your party, in our opinion the best of local eateries in the area, will definitely be back.

First time visit and will definitely go again. Staff very friendly. Premises very clean and cosy, nice set up not crammed. Toilets were clean. Finally to the food....which was a very nice balance quality and quantity. Thoroughly enjoyed and the free desserts were definitely a bonus

Delicious. Every mouthful was an unbelievable burst of flavour in every course we had. Cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough and the prices were good as well. The service was outstanding, very friendly and helpful.

first time at the Castle Inn but not the last, the pub was very clean, the barman (proprietor) was polite and efficient, the food was cooked fresh and was delicious. my wife had the garlic chicken and i had the steak pie, the small squares of cheddar cheese in the steak pie gave it a unique flavour. It was nice to find a pub which is a class above the regular chain pubs. we'll definitely be back.
