  “We visited whilst staying in the area, it was very busy at the front, but the restaurant was nice and quiet. We ordered pie of the day and schnitzel, they were both very tasty and nicely presented. The service was ok considering how busy they were. The girls serving were very friendly and professional. We would definitely go there again, if we are in the area, it had a nice feel about it. There is also a beer garden, but we didn't use it.”

  “A lovely local pub which delivered a delicious Sunday lunch, the beef was done to perfection. The staff were very accommodating and generous with extra gravy jugs for the table. Will definitely visit and again!”

  “5 people for Christmas day dinner. Tucked away in a room with four tables all reserved. Two tables having food served. The other two tables were taken over by people drinking and others crowding in so that it was impossible to move or hear each other speak as very loud men were crowded in standing over the tables where people were earing and having to shout to hear each other. One lady went home as too crowded and couldn't eat due to atmosphere and felt unwell. Food was OK ish. Starter was OK. The mains which were supposed to be Turkey came as beef. The vegetarian option came with MEAT! Three of the mains were stone cold. The vegetarian option was warm, the other was boxed to take home. The people on the opposite table were served wrongly and couldn't be corrected. It was actually awful although the beef looked nice but was not eaten as don't like beef. The deserts were not good. Had much nicer from Iceland. Extremely disappointing for a Christmas meal actually on Christmas day especially as we only went out as I was unable to cook. The waitress was lovely. I would give her 5 stars. The manager was attrocias. Not even an apology for meat being served to a vegetarian. Was rude and obnoxious. Only cared about cramming in as many drinkers as possible although tables reserved. What a joke. People were waiting for the next sitting. One table but taken up by drinkers so table not set. People eating also drink so they should also been given consideration especially as paying out over £300 for food. Manager would not accept responsibility for any of it although pointed out quietly to the waitress. I would never return.”

  “Shameful for a Christmas day meal. 2 hours for two courses and 3 tables left before our desserts came out. Main courses cold and hugely lacking for 65 pounds a head, almost no gravy or veg and one potato burnt solid. Staff loudly swearing in presence of children. Dirty cutlery. 30 mins late to be seated in a overcrowded area. Over 300 quid for an abysmal dining experience. Bar staff and waitress very friendly and understanding of the failings. Have visited here many times but haven't been in a while as on our last visit the food was below what it usually is, this will be the last time we visit as its left a bad taste for our first Christmas dining out.”

  “Just enjoyed an early dinner at the Butcher & Beast. The food was wonderful - beautifully prepared and tasted amazing. My husband’s sweet potato dahl was in his words “loaded and full of flavour” and there were clear plates all round. We had such great service too - welcoming and relaxed and we appreciated the recommendations they made. Will definitely be back!”

  “I bloody love this place. I brought my parents here for lunch today as they were up visiting me and I knew we'd get excellent food and service. We all opted for the Grimsby Haddock and chips with mushy peas and they were magnificent! The fish was enormous and I ended up only having a handful of the lovely chips as a result, but it was so tasty - as if we were having fish and chips at the seaside. The staff as always were very friendly and the service was perfect. I hadn't been in the garden before but it is a lovely little suntrap and we enjoyed it immensely. This pub is also very dog friendly and having 3 dogs along with us was no problem at all. I would recommend this place wholeheartedly to anyone looking for some lovely grub in a friendly environment.”
