Customer Review Summary
The caveat is slow or mishandled service. One reviewer says the drinks took over 30 minutes after the food arrived quickly, and another says a drink with a meal can arrive after the meal is finished, even when the pub is quiet. Staff are called lovely and friendly but run off their feet. One diner found no clean tables on a Sunday and had to take one with dirty plates, though the toilets were called lovely. Another reviewer's bottle of wine arrived opened with no lid, short by a large glass, and the replacement arrived opened too.

“What is wrong with Weatherspoon opening your bottle of wine and bringing it to you opened with no lid on? Mine arrived opened short by a large glass! Requested a new one which also arrived opened ( no lid) through the crowd of people. The waitress had another one under her armpit and there was no way she could keep an eye on any of them. Reported to the manager who had a very little understanding.”
