  “WeI have visited here twice in the last couple of weeks once for a quick bite for lunch, the restaurant was virtually empty. Upon ordering our meal to be told there is 1 hour delay for food so we left with no apology forthcoming. Next visit was today with 3 children in tow although the food was somewhat ok the kids menu was virtually all unavailable no ice cream of any description with excuse of fridge broken, there was no tacos available, the only thing was very small portions of pasta left. We had a 12.30 table and they had only been open half hour would have been nice to have had an explanation before seating us. This experience does not fill be with confidence in returning such a shame the staff try their best without the professionalism and good supply of available food should definitely be addressed or maybe considering reducing your menu.

  “I came in yesterday evening with some friends. Were greeted with a friendly hello. Ordered the drinks on the app and they arrived quite quickly. Good range of non alcoholic drinks. Food came out hot and tasted good”

  “All in all not the best hungry horse went to this one as our us all one the Clock inn were fully booked. We ordered food which was ok not the greatest to be honest the kids didn't eat there's as I must say it was cold and parts over cooked. they did eat the ice-cream but that cant be made wrong ha-ha. My wife's mixed grill cam out with the bits we asked not to have on there still on there and my fish was well over cooked the attuited of the staff was shocking to say the least they took the plates away and asked was it all ok our reply was not really they said sorry to here that. so not really worried even though they could see there was food still left on the plate so clearly a problem. As for the pub it is a lovely place feels homely and think it could be really good and could have scored 5 apart from the service. plenty of parking when went which was good.”

  “Came here on a lovely warm summer evening. Firstly the queue for the bar and restaurant was absolutely insane. Then, next time we tried to get a drink, there was no one serving. I’m sure it could be lovely. But they have no staff. And the staff here seem to be totally overworked and underpaid. Two stars because the staff were semi-friendly despite being overworked.”

  “Came in today and was given lamb instead of the vegan impossible flat bread. I've never eaten lamb in my life so I thought nothing of it only that it was a spicy vegan chopped up sausage. Very disappointed will update if I throw up later. Update! I threw up! For abit more context I came in with my stepdad and mum around half 4/5 ish this evening. My stepdad ordered the lamb kofa flat bread, I ordered the impossible flat bread and my mum ordered the Greek salad and halloumi fries. When the plates arrived to our table the server named each plate, she very clearly named (the what I know now to be lamb) the impossible flat bread. And she did the same with my stepdads plate. Basically she mixed up the plates and named it the impossible flat bread. PLEASE TRAIN YOUR SERVERS PROPERLY. I do not blame her at all it's clearly down to poor training. This is a awful mistake to make for numerous reasons. If the social media manager could get me in contact with the general manager so we can resolve this.”

  “Overall the pub and restaurant is very good. I am just unhappy with Katie I think her name was (short lady with short dark hair) . She is very unpleasant and rude. I came in for drinks and something to eat with my friend. We paid for our drinks but Katie told us we had to write a review first and praise her up. I had already paid for my drink. I could understand after a while if she politely asked for us to write a review- that wouldn’t have been an issue, but she was rude. Why would I write a review about how great she is when I have only been in the building 5 minutes and already disappointed. Furthermore, she was rude to my friend and said “yes, what do you want” when ordering her drink. I have come here many times and other members of staff are fantastic. I enjoyed my meal and so did my friend. Just wish the lady would sort herself out and be more professional and polite.”

  “Been here a few times, food is good for the price. The times we’ve been the food comes really quickly and was hot. Very good price, can get a decent meal and a drink for not much more than £10 in the week. Staff are friendly and the times I’ve been really chatty and helpful. Recently Katie behind the bar was brilliant. One criticism is it does often close early in the evening despite having quite a lot of people in.”

  “Popped in for another reason decided to have lunch. Staff were friendly and found us a table I could access with my wheelchair. Food was hot and delicious. Had a blue light discount but the waitress who served us waited till the end to see if the discount was more or the menu offers were to save us the most money. Could do with a few more disabled spots (only one available)”

  “Pretty awful experience. Disinterested staff (especially the two older ladies that served us), average quality food that tasted bland and cheap, and dirty toilets. There's dust and cobwebs everywhere across the wooden beams in this place (alongside the dust and dirt on the ornaments and pictures), how about you get a duster out and clean properly? Overall experience was poor and I cannot recommend, and I will not be returning.”
