  “First time I've been here and honestly I was really surprised! The food was absolutely amazing, me and my son got the light bite pie, chips, peas and gravy and it was beautiful and more than enough my other son got the fish and chips with peas and it was huge and tasted unreal. Will definitely be visiting again”

  “Food smelt delicious, and it's was very busy. My grandad used to drink in here before matches at Roker Park in the '40's and 50's. Then my dad and my uncles in the '60's and 70's. So I have a soft spot for the Wolsey. I don't get in as much since we moved grounds.”

  “Called in here today with the wife n mother in law who ordered a hot beef dip. She couldn't eat any of the beef at all, unable to cut though and said it had a strange taste. The beef just looked like a rubber sole. When mentioned it he asked if she wanted anything else, I said could you just give her some turkey instead as the chips were nice. The turkey never arrived and was offered if she wanted a free drink instead, she was drinking lemon and lime. No offer of a discount or anything he even admitted a few people had complained as they had changed supplier recently. First time calling in here. Very disappointed we won't be back”

  “First time in today. Seemed busy and there was only one man behind the bar serving and seemed run off his feet. Was a little disappointed to not find any ale as the website says two beers are on rotation, but maybe the site is out of date? I did check several times that I couldn't see any beer hiding Ordered food and had quite a lengthy wait. Not horrendous, but more than expected for the order we made, Might have been worth letting us know there were a lot of orders and it may take a lot while. Finished drinks and got another just as food arrived. Looking great. The chips are exceptional and worth a full star on their own. Beef baguette was ok. Not the greatest melt in the mouth beef and a little chewy but certainly edible and acceptable. Overall a decent meal and service and would certainly go back. But a couple of minor tweaks and it could be a five star review for me. Only given the criticism because I feel it's easy to address and doesn't detract from a good meal. Will happily eat here again ... If not only for the fabulous chips!”

  “Went for Sunday dinner, I had the large turkey/beef and you got plenty. Plenty of veg to choose from with cracknel if you wanted it. Plenty of gravy cranberry/apple sauce if you desired. It really reminds me of that homely Sunday dinner you had at your grans, thoroughly enjoyed.”
