The Old Spring

Great food and amazing service

Discovered them by accident, but what a find. Good food and excellent service. Will definitely go back.

Popped in for a pint ,just passing by.

Nice place and friendly bar staff. Food was lovely but a bit on the expensive side.

Had seabass with Vegetables. Vegetables uncooked. Fish just okay.

Lovely food, very generous portions and quick service. We came here for Sunday roast as a group of 5. We reserved in advance so got seated quickly. Orders were taken promptly, the drinks and food arrived right after we placed our orders. The roast was delicious. I didn't manage to finish it all as it was a very generous portion. We had all types of meats across the table and everyone commented on how nice it was. This pub is dog friendly which is an added bonus. We will definitely come back again Kid-friendliness: Kids menu options

We chose the Old Spring as a dinner destination because the online menu lists allergens and explicitly mentions marked menu options can be made gluten free on request; as one of our party has coeliac disease, this seemed ideal. A gluten free burger was duly ordered, and arrived in very recognisable Warburtons GF sandwich thins in lieu of a bun; which, not quite what I expected from the place, but fair enough. The bigger problem was the only accompaniement being a bowl of chips. We asked to confirm whether the chips were safe, since battered items were also on the menu, and separate deep friers are unusual and highly advertised where they exist - were the chips fried in the same oil as the floured menu items (e.g. "beer-battered haddock")? Following a blank look and a visit to the kitchens, in lieu of an answer to the question we asked, we were told that no guarantees could be made about /any/ of the food with respect to allergen content. No further information was provided, and no alternatives offered. Since it was unclear whether the chips could be safely eaten by that diner, she had to leave them. I urge the owners not to claim in their online menu that gluten free meals can be provided on request if this is not actually the case, so that visitors can make fully informed plans. Hopefully this review will help others until this is addressed. Dietary restrictions: The online menu contains the text "V*, VG*, G.F* can be offered as vegetarian, vegan or gluten-free upon request." This appears to be a lie.

We booked on a very busy day, so thankful that the table was ready for us. Lentil salad was excellent, both tasty and hearty. Roast was good. Vegetarian options: Only 2 options. Lentil salad was excellent. Avoided the wellington due to bad experience at another pub.
