Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the welcoming landlady and staff, with several describing the pub as friendly, clean and a community local. The buffets draw repeated praise for lots of choice and tasty food, and one reviewer picks out the quiche at a birthday party. Diners also mention a good selection of well kept beers, lagers and ciders, plus a few ales on alongside the regular lager range. Darts and pool teams, quizzes and the occasional live music give it a sociable feel, and a couple of reviewers say drinks prices are reasonable. The criticism is narrower. One reviewer says a quiet early Friday pint was spoiled by dogs yelping in the lounge and children running around shouting and throwing drinks while parents drank, and says it has got worse. Another dislikes that the car park is used for outdoor seating. One reviewer jokes about the landlady singing while she pulls a pint.

    “If you fancy a quiet pint early doors Friday give it a miss. Dogs yelping and in the lounge? Kids dumped at pub to run around wild shouting and throwing drinks about whilst the parents get on with their drinking. It has got worse so thanks but no thanks I'm off.”
  • Robert
    “A well managed local pub with friendly and welcoming landlady and staff. Nice selection of well kept beers, lagers and ciders, and hosts darts and pool teams, quizzes, and other community based social meetings.”
  • Helen Jackson
    “I visited The Grove for the first time recently, I was greeted warmly by the landlady, landlord and their staff. There was an very good atmosphere. Prices for drinks were very reasonable with a good choice. I went back the following weekend and my first experience wasn't a one off! I'll definitely will be visiting again soon!”

    “Lovely pub. We went to a friend's birthday party 🎉 there. The buffet they did was great 👍 Quiche was my favourite 😍. The only downside was the outdoor space. They use the car park for seating. Nothing major overall would go back.”
