Customer Review Summary
The complaints are fewer but specific. One diner says staff stayed in the office while the manager drank with friends, so they had to phone the pub to be served, then were told of an early closing and locked out. Another reports the fish batter arrived raw, though staff happily fixed it, and that everyone found the side salad warm. One reviewer found no roasts left on a Sunday evening without a booking, and accepted that as a big ask.

“Super impressed with this place and its staff. There was 35, my food was great. What really stood out was the attitude of the servers, there was signs up explaining that due to unforeseen circumstances there would be no table service, clearly it had to do with staffing. All 4 workers did not stop. The two on bar were so busy but still friendly. The girl that sorted out our whole order was an absolute star. Nothing phased her all night! and the tall lad was so kind to my young nephew. Very impressive place with great food and team spirit.”

“Lovely, efficient and professional service from Molly. Ultimate Burger is a great deal for the price. Bar was nice and clean, no sticky tables or touch areas. Allergies checked. Plates cleared quickly by a tall bloke. Only downside was there was no roasts left but at 7pm on a Sunday without a booking it was quite a big ask.”

“One thing this pub does really well is being consistently bad, so far they have a 100% success rate. I thought I'd give them a second chance and how wrong was I. Last time it was rudeness, this time we had to call the pub to get served as the staff were skiving in the office while the manager was sitting drinking with his mates. Then only to be told they were closing early and literally locked us out. We saw at least 3 other parties walk in and walk out again as the service is so bad to none existent. Places like this deserve to close.”
