  “Ordered at 5:50pm (starters, mains and desserts), every single course took a long time to come out and was still waiting for dessert over 2 hours from when we placed the order. My mum ordered the white chocolate tart and when she went to chase where the desserts were, she was told there was none left, even though we’d pre-ordered it 2 hours before. The food was all very nice, but the service has been terrible and we feel let down by this. We have a 7 month old with us so ordered early because he usually goes to bed at 7:30pm and by time the food had come, he was too tired to even eat any of it.”

  “Absolutely dreadful main course (fish and chips). Returned twice for being overcooked. Very rude manager, and very poor judgement. I have eaten here several times, I would normally give a five star, but when managers don’t care about their customers, then it’s not worth spending your hard earned money there. Won’t be going there in a hurry again and I will be calling head office on Monday morning about this.”

  “Disappointed to book a table and arrive on time only to have to wait 15 minutes to be seated and given menus after having to ask! We were then told that you had run out of roast potatoes, on a Sunday this is very annoying and really not the …”

  “We decided to visit your pub for a birthday celebration as we live nearby and thought it would be nice to support a local business. Unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing from start to finish. We placed our food order at approximately 6:53 pm, yet by 8:20 pm we had received only three starters. Even by 8:30 pm, our main meals had still not arrived. Waiting well over 90 minutes for food without any meaningful communication or apology is simply unacceptable. To make matters worse, one of the starters—three small chicken skewers—cost £9.25, which felt very poor value for the portion served. The level of customer service was equally disappointing. We asked for some tap water for our baby, and instead of helping us, one of the waiters told us they were “too busy” and that we would have to stand in the same queue as customers placing orders just to get a glass of free water. This lack of basic courtesy and consideration for a family with a baby was shocking. When we approached the staff to ask about the delay, we were simply told that the pub was “extremely busy.” There was no apology, no acknowledgment of the excessive wait, and no attempt to reassure us or offer any solution. Being busy is not an excuse for poor service, especially when customers are left waiting for over an hour and a half without any communication. As local residents, we were genuinely looking forward to discovering what we hoped would become our local pub for future family occasions. Instead, we left with one of the worst dining experiences we have had. This experience has left us feeling frustrated, disappointed, and very unlikely to return or recommend your pub to others. I sincerely hope you review your service standards and how your staff communicate with customers, particularly when there are significant delays. A simple apology, regular updates, and basic customer care would have made a considerable difference.”

  “40 mins after being given menus came for order then waited 1hr for main course when finished given dessert menu but waitress didn’t come back for order so went to bar and asked for bill only to find been charged for items we hadn’t ordered. Could not believe they had run out of alcohol free Guinness Bass Beer tasted off and nothing else to give replacement also no lamb Skewers.”

  “Had a booking for lunch time on Father’s Day. Arrived at the pub early to get a drink, with my older parents. The owner rudely refunded to even serve us a drink in this hot heat until it was 12pm on the dot. Won’t be going back again, cancelled reservation.”

  “Having been here twice before, this 3rd time was very disappointed! Both my partner and I had the very expensive skewers at £20 ( chips not even a side free option) They both came out very dry! My partners more than mine, chips were not as good as normal. Ee are in all as was starving and the wait for it was quite long. We had chips as said, 25 quid fir a poorly cooked and very expensive meal , we left very short changed. Might just put us off going back.. empty wallet, food less than average!! Ps it was like thet forgot to put 2 skewers on! Partners was shocking”

  “My husband and I were going to stay for dinner, we couldn't find a clean, suitable for eating at, table, so we decided to finish our drinks and leave. I asked a lady to clean it for us, she didn't like it much, came outside, sprayed over my husband, stated most of it was under the glass. It's disgusting. Quite expensive to eat here, I expect it to be clean.”
