Really disappointed with the meal if you have dietary requirements don't go there. The server tried to help me with their app. Manager dam rude. Toilets disgusting only one out of three usable. No soap available thank god I had hand sanitizer. Won't be returning.
We have visited this pub, taking friends and family on several occasions over many years, and have always been very happy with the food and service. I don't know what's gone wrong! We had booked, and the restaurant wasn't full or busy. We were given the Sunday menu. We arrived early to choose our meals. Waited at least half an hour for the meals to arrive. Husband wanted fish and chips. There were none. He chose chicken with bbq. sauce. All the plates were cold. No chunky chips so French fries. Two small pieces of chicken without the sauce, which he had to ask for, and a handful of wilted rocket leaves. I chose roast pork. Once again the plate was cold, and so was the meal. Three dried up slices of pork, no crackling, as stated on the menu, a dollop of minced up cabbage with a few peas thrown in, half a carrot, a few fried up chunks of potato, thankfully warm, and a Yorkshire pudding. The Yorkshire pudding looked spectacular, but it was soggy in the middle and I was unable to cut it so I ended up picking it up to eat it. I could go on about the rest of the meals, but I think you have some idea. Nine people eating and only one meal passable , and that was pie, but once again, no chunky chips. The very charming waitress didn't return to ask us " how was your meal"? I think that she already knew! We will not return.
Good Sunday lunch staff a little slow think they were new also don't give everyone a full menu or a la carte and the say oh you can only chose Sunday lunch menu. Just gets confusing all in all a good meal. we have visited again for Sunday lunch they were very busy and we were told upfront that there was half an hour delay as they only had 2 chefs. the service was great our waitress was chatty and made sure that the food was great, even to removing the Bakewell tart from the bill as she didn't think it was up to standard. this is just a lovely easy going place to have Sunday lunch.
Steak was all gristle, had to return it . Food has gone down hill since the change of management.
A really lovely pub, situated by the river, good selection of food and beverages, helpful attentive staff, ample parking, great for families. Would highly recommend
We used to visit frequently but hadn't visited for about 18 months as we felt the food and service went a bit downhill. We decided to give it another go and visited today for a Sunday Roast. We both ordered the Trio of Meats - beef, turkey and pork. The turkey and pork were lovely but the beef was inedible. It was so tough we couldn't even cut it. We were offered an alternative meat instead and Dave generously adjusted our bill which we did not expect. He was very attentive and seemed to be interacting with all the guests. He clearly cares about what he does and does a good job. We felt very well looked after and hopefully will be back again soon.
I don't like giving bad reviews but this place is going downhill. They are always running out of certain choices on the menu. They need to keep more stock of items. Even had a PIMMS with no fruit in it as they had run out! This used to be such a great place to eat and drink. Let's hope it improves soon.
