“Top-tier sushi and beyond! Each piece is fresh, vibrant, and perfectly crafted. Ramen is rich and comforting, and every dish on the menu is a must-try. The staff were sweet, helpful, and made the whole experience even better. Zumuku delivers Japanese cuisine at its finest!”

“Always love coming here with my family, great food, drinks and atmosphere. Service is exceptional and the food is absolutely delicious. Always good to see my friends here. The beer garden out back is a beautiful sun trap in the summer, very chilled and peaceful.”

“An absolutely beautiful 7 course meal. We couldn’t fault anything. 5 stars ⭐️ isn’t enough for this fantastic place. My only one regret is, all the staff signed a birthday card for Lucy, and she forgot to pick it up. She was gutted on our way home.”

“Best Sunday dinner we have had in a long time! Me and my partner go to lots of places for Sunday dinner and The Queen’s Head tops the lot! Large sizes and the cheesy leeks/ cauliflower cheese was incredible. Staff were really attentive and looked after us throughout our stay. We shall be back and will recommend to friends and family.”

“I have visited Higher Ground on numerous occasions and love the decor, atmosphere and delicious food. Staff are always polite and attentive. I often visit with my children and mum who has mobility issues and staff go out of their way to accommodate us on a table that is accessible for her. The food is always delicious, and it is clear that they use the best locally sourced products. I usually go for brunch but recently tried the Shawarma wrap that was amazing. Would definitely recommend.”

“We had Tom as our server. Confident and friendly. Made an amazing salted caramel cocktail. Lovely atmosphere, with welcoming staff”

“Excellent food. Clean shop and the Staff are always friendly and go above and beyond for their customers. Highly recommended”

“On 25th October we had our wedding at the Lion & Swan, WOW it was certainly 5 stars!! After 8 years of being engaged and looking at sooo many venues, we randomly stumbled on The Lion & Swan and when we came for a viewing we knew it was what we were searching for. During the whole time planning our wedding Liam has been great, he is so attentive and nothing is too much trouble! Our wedding day was amazing and went smoothly. The venue is just stunning and even more so with wedding decor. The food was delicious!! Downstairs at Radleys is the perfect place for an evening reception which creates the best atmosphere for a party. Also all of our guests that stayed at the Venue commented on how lovely their bedrooms were and what a nice breakfast they had. We absolutely loved having everything for our special day under one roof and wouldn’t change a thing! Thankyou so much Liam for all of your help and support. Hannah & Dan x”

“We stayed at the Lamb Guest Inn as part of a wedding party. It was my husband, one year old daughter, and I. The hosts were more than genuine and accommodating. They went out of their way to make sure we not only had everything us adults needed, but our daughter as well. They provided a pack n’ play for her to sleep in, a high chair at breakfast, and even provided special lacto free milk for her. Everything was clean and immaculate. The breakfast was homemade to order. Some of the best food we had during our whole stay in London. The location is an easy, safe walk to all the downtown bars, restaurants, supermarket, etc. It honestly felt like we were at my grandparents house the way they took care of us. I would definitely highly recommend and look forward to hopefully staying here again.”

“First time at this restaurant. The restaurant is dimly lit giving it a nice atmosphere and the decor is lovely. The food was tasty & well presented - there's a lot of choice. The staff are very friendly & attentive. We will be back very soon. Recommended !”

“Deniz is a lovely place to come for food, this is the second time I have been and both times, the service, staff and atmosphere has always been incredible. Everything on the menu is delicious, the food comes out very prompt! The staff have always been extremely friendly, they couldn’t do anymore for you. I first came for my Mum’s birthday at Lunch and we had such a lovely time, we said we would recommend and come back. Tonight we came for my friends birthday and they couldn’t have done enough for us, they even sang him Happy Birthday in Turkish. Very kind people and we will bring more people back to this restaurant.”

“Family meal for my wife's Birthday and our 25 wedding anniversary. Excellent food and very friendly staff. Definitely be going again soon”

“We visited yesterday for a family wedding and we were made to feel very welcome from the start. It is a super wedding venue and the staff were very organised and ensured that it all ran very smoothly. One member of staff who stood out to us was Sophie. She was so accommodating and nothing was too much trouble for her. She served the canapés in a very efficient and friendly manner. The following morning ( today ) she served us with a delicious breakfast and was as helpful as she had been yesterday. She certainly stood out to us but I will add that all the staff worked efficiently and calmly throughout the day. Thank you for a lovely day xx”

“Nice quirky place to have a drink and something to eat. The place itself was clean and presented well. Staff were friendly and polite and made you feel welcome.”

“Boothroyd agrees that this a good place for an old King to drink. Surprisingly large pub with a rear patio. Boothroyd decided on a pint of draught Bass. Very good traditional ale. Sat in the strand twixt bar and garden, close to the Throne Room. Enjoyed the music.”

“Comprehensive brunch menu. Well cooked, lovely polite and helpful staff. Reasonably priced, not cheap but you get what you pay for a quality well cooked meal. Thank you.”

“Had a private function in the upstairs room. Beautifully decorated Great service from the staff, although I did think that one of the bar staff could have learnt to smile more. What I ate from the buffet was nice. Drinks were reasonably priced.”

“A great pub, Mandy & Mark do a great job. My first choice for a night with family or friends.”

“Lovely place to stay. Very clean and comfortable rooms. Breakfast was delightful. Staff were professional, friendly and welcoming. I would visit here again.”

“Robinson's Brewery has, for many years, provided us with excellent pubs and, in the case of the Unicorn in Congleton, not disappointed. The refurbishment was, undoubtedly, money well spent and I wish the Landlord and Staff all success. Norman A Dean”

“We arrived on an early sunday evening and it was busy. However the host (possibly a manager) she kindly acknowledged me and advised she would be with me shortly. Soon after she returned and was able to accommodate our walk in table request for 3 people and a dog. She was very friendly and welcoming. I think there is just one room where dogs can sit but the room was very pleasant with all the Christmas decorations and fairly lights. Our table was by the fire which was nice and they kindly lit it for us on request. The gentleman who served us was very pleasant and friendly. Possibly a manager ( sorry I didn't get his name) but he was dressed different to the other staff and he was very accommodating getting water for the dog etc. The food was delicious and a decent size, we all had Sunday roasts and they were excellent. Beautifully presented and very tasty. They even kindly let my mum have the kids version as due to dietary issues she can't eat too much. This place has a lovely ambience, all the staff were very friendly and pleasant, even fellow customers were friendly. There was a big table near us that were no trouble and seemed nice but as they were quite drunk they were very loud and even swearing quite a bit which isn't ideal when trying to enjoy a relaxing meal but it didn't spoil our meal at all we just decided to have the coffee and desert at home in a bit more peace :-) We live nearby and having passed by many times we always thought how nice it looked from the outside so we had wanted to visit for a while. I am so glad we finally did and we all said how lovely it was inside and that we would definitely return based on this visit. Delicious food, average prices, lovely, friendly staff and a cosy welcoming atmosphere, what more could you ask for. Thank you to the guy who looked after us so well, he was very pleasant and made us feel very welcome.”

“Came to the flowerpot a few weeks ago, great food, great vibes, lovely staff served by courtney, mya and manager holly. Will be back soon! Only note is that music could be a little better and updated.”

“We loved the atmosphere and the great variety of cuisines! I especially reccomend the Brazilian place Boteco, and the Dublin Bar does a good array of drinks. Will definitely be back to same the other places!”

“After a busy day ,we called for an early evening meal. The pub is Beautiful and very well run.The food was outstanding. We ordered the special Rib Eye steak, the portion size was extremely generous, and cooked perfectly. Delicious food and a lovely warm reception. Thank you. Would highly recommend.”

“Very well run pub, 2 excellent pool tables, well kept beer, clean and functional toilets, lots of seating. My only gripe- and I'd knock it half a star for this if I could - is the music is often too loud and you have to shout to be heard. Not worth dropping to 4 stars for though. Great place.”

“Visited The Railway Inn yesterday as a halfway point to meet a friend. Had an excellent experience. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. The food was fresh, tasty & homemade. The chef came to ask if everything had been OK. Will definitely be back!”

“We had a lovely stay here. The lodges are fantastic and the honesty shop is great for if you forget something. We would 100% stay again.”

“We went for Christmas Day and wow the staff are on another level. Jordan, maisey and every member of staff who served us was amazing. The food was exceptional and the atmosphere made our Christmas perfect. We will be booking next and cannot to come back”
