   I would rate it higher if they sorted out the pump in the accommodation block that runs evey time someone uses water! They either need to isolate the equipment or replace it with something that operates almost silently. Staff are nice, food is okay, location is great. But I won't be coming back unless they fix that bloody pump. I've complained to staff about it, and I can't be the only one that has? C'mon guys, sort it out.

   Came for a meal with my son, after being shown to the table that id booked we decided what we wanted and went to the bar to order, there was a change we asked if we could make to one of the mains which there wasn't a problem with doing, sat down to wait for the starters,didn't wait too long, started eating and I hadn't even finished my first of 3 onion bhaji when our mains were brought to the table,when I said I haven't finished my starter I was informed "the kitchen staff are on the ball night,way ahead of themselves", food was plonked in front of us and away they went,my son and I were left with starters and mains, by the time we finished our starters the mains were cold, my salmon on a hot skillet was like cardboard and the onions had stuck to the skillet, I put the knob of butter on my corn on the cob and it fell off because the corn was stone cold. Not good, not good at all, oh and to top it off the change that we requested for one of the mains hadn't been changed.

   On arrival, I was informed that my booking had been cancelled! I booked a double room in October 2024, for 3 nights in August 2025, but was told my booking had been cancelled in November 2024! They couldn't tell me who had cancelled it, or why, and had taken my money in full. Anyway, onto the good bit, the staff were very good, and full credit to Callum for efficiently, professionally and politely sorting it out. I can't praise him highly enough. An excellent room in prime position was sorted for us and we had a lovely stay. I've rated the review 4/5 purely due to the cock up, that could have left us in a mess if there had been no room available.

   Good value, tasty food in a friendly pub. Service with a smile. Steak was great for less than a tenner and cooked to my liking, which I did not expect! The potatoes served with the chicken parmigiana were interesting and not too my taste, but overall great for the price.

   Really amazing food. Amazing staff. Came here with my children. My youngest loves the gammon. The staff are very helpful as I requested for the gammon ( mix it up) to be put on a normal plate as my child is quite young. Definitely will be back :) the pub is very clean and tidy as well. Definitely will recommend to family and friends

   Appalling food & sub-standard customer service. I like how every negative review has received a reply indicating they will improve/learn, however this seems to be a standard reply and the same inadequacies still seem to be prevalent. Table booked in advance in person & upon arrival, no booking could be found. After slight delay, was told to choose any table within the conservatory area. Picked table large enough to accommodate our party, after being seated we noticed not just crumbs underneath the table, but actual chucks of food from the previous diners. The table was clean but the floor around the table was covered in food/crumbs from the previous diners. I understand you cannot whip a hoover around whilst other people are eating, but this was unacceptable. After ordering food at the bar, the food arrived in a timely fashion but one of the party was served the incorrect meal, rather than make a fuss as the pub/restaurant is clearly understaffed, they kept what had been served. Unfortunately out of 4 adult meals and 2 children’s meals, I would describe all as being pre-cooked and warmed prior to serving. The children’s meals, inedible! Not expecting master chef cuisine but certainly expecting at minimum food deserving of the costs charged. Overall, very dated premises with over worked staff and poor quality food. Pub was busy so doubt very much that genuine negative feedback will be taken on-board by the powers that be. Generic response pending……..

   It's a nice pub, staff are very friendly and drinks are a good price. Enjoyed the food there. Remember if you're a gold or above AA member, you can get discount here. Only downside is that the water wheel isn't moving, which is a huge shame. Shout out to the poor girl struggling with a migraine and still working hard.
