  “Excellent service! Great portion sizes, fresh local produce and awesome tap selection. Everything a more you’d hope from a Gastro pub in the countryside.”

  “We had a wonderful experience here! The restaurant has such an authentic atmosphere, and the traditional British food was absolutely delicious and beautifully cooked. What made the experience even more special was the service. All the ladies working there were incredibly kind, attentive and welcoming, always making sure everything was just right and doing so with a lovely smile. It is the kind of place that makes you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. A real taste of traditional English hospitality, and somewhere we would happily recommend to anyone visiting the area!”

  “It was good, we had outside seating, there is small places outside with shade, though those are taken up quickly. The service was brilliant, it felt like time from order to our table was like 5 minutes, absolutely superb. On the day I visited (Monday) there wasn't a vegan main dish, but staff were helpful in suggesting a dish without yogurt 👌. Overall fantastic”

  “Absolutely stunning dinner. I had the pork belly and my partner the fish and chips. Mote I also had a side of vegetables and cauliflower cheese. We were able to sit out in the garden as the weather was perfect too. Would highly recommend a visit as you will not be disappointed”

  “An excellent place, very well designed and maintained. It's clear that the owners are highly professional, courteous, and truly know their business. The service is outstanding—fast, efficient, and attentive. The cheeses are excellent, and the burger is simply magnificent. Our waitress, a tall young woman with a great attitude, was incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The décor is very cool, with plenty of tasteful design details that create a great atmosphere. The only thing that's impossible to fix is the low ceiling beams. At 6'4", it was quite a challenge to walk to the table without ducking to avoid a serious bump on the head! 🤭 We came back the next day, had the same waitress, ordered different dishes, and once again everything was excellent. If I lived in the area, I would definitely be a regular customer!”

  “The £24 Caesar salad special was very disappointing. It was a tiny portion with extremely basic ingredients - like something from a supermarket meal deal, not a £24 pub special. A lovely pub but the food doesn’t match the prices.”

  “Stopped here a journey back home and we saw it on the way in, and thought it looked exactly the kind of gastro type pub we like, we weren't wrong or disappointed! The food from ordering on a very hot day was very very quick! Looked amazing and served by very friendly and accommodating staff. The food was delicious, fresh, and just all round top notch, will 100% visit again when visiting the same friends.”

  “We have just checked into The Rectory Hotel and we were hungry. We headed to The Potting Shed and we were looking forward to a hearty meal. Ordered the Fish and Chips which has gathered some high praises. To our utter disappointment the Fish and chips were some of the worst we have had! The haddock was coated with a layer of very thick batter, it tasted oily, fishy and heavy. The fish itself did not have a very good taste and the fishy smell was quite unpleasant! We would think at least the chips would be good but they were limped and soggy, not nice at all! The best thing on the plate was the smashed peas, which were really nice. We just couldn’t finish the fish and chips even though we were still hungry. I was worried after such a let down on the quality of the food here as we have made a booking for our dinner here tomorrow through the hotel but we chanced it and come back for dinner, we decided we would not order any seafood dishes. The sirloin and French fries were much better, however, they were not the standard we anticipated. While the pub’s decor and setting was very cute, the dining room not so much. It was slightly busy when we arrived hence we didn’t receive a warm welcome. The waitress who served us was not much into serving as she was running her feet off. But a smile would be nice. The sirloin was well cooked and the french fries was nice. The colour was beautifully golden but they were somewhat crispy but not quite enough. That’s all I can say about the food. Quite a disappointing experience overall.”

  “I had a wonderful Sunday roast pork belly. I wouldn’t normally choose pork but it was recommended to me. So glad I did! Delicious and so much of it! All the veg and Yorkshire pud were so yummy. I took home what I couldn’t manage. Staff were so helpful and kind. Thank you”
