Customer Review Summary

Service draws the most consistent praise, with several diners naming individual servers who made meals feel welcoming, attentive, and quick even when the restaurant was busy. Food-wise, the 8oz sirloin steak with chunky chips gets called out as great value, alongside a salmon salad and vegan ice-cream dessert praised at an anniversary lunch, and calamari singled out as a strong starter. Value stands out too, with reviewers citing deals like two courses for around £15 after 5pm and coupon use for desserts. On the downside, one visitor booked for Sunday roast found it unavailable along with several other menu items, and described small portions and a skimpy halloumi skewer that had to be topped up. Another diner reported dirty, marked glasses and an overcooked breakfast with rubbery eggs and dried-out black pudding. Despite these lapses, repeat visitors describe leaving with anniversary chocolates, coupon discounts honored, and plans to return whenever passing through the area.

    “This was our first time at this particular Beefeater, and to be honest I wasn’t expecting too much due to previous mediocre experiences with this chain before. Well I was quite blown away to be honest. It was quite busy, but the service was excellent by our young waitress Megan. A lovely welcoming smile and service to match, The food was superb, hot tasty and sooo yummy.”

    “Popped in here before 5pm and was delighted to a great valued meal. 8oz sirloin steak with chunky chips, fired tomato and mushroom. Started I had the chicken and BBQ sauce. Serviced quickly and the door was lovely an hot. Great value at £21 with a Guinness! However, the glasses are dirty! All glasses that we were served with had lots of marks - some still had lipstick on it. The cooked breakfast was disappointing; the black pudding was over cooked and lost all moisture. The eggs were again over cooked and were rubbery in texture.”
