  “S**t. Not worth the money, I've had better food at weatherspoons! The service is pretty bleak everyone looks miserable, the breakfast is lower than standard, the kids food is ridiculously HOT and adult food is cold!! Purchased a kids 2 scoop ice cream and it was bigger then the actual kids meal? Adult twix Sunday is just a cup of squirty cream! £40+ quid on trash My advice is find the fat badger and fill yours boots it's the only real food around here!”

  “On my first visit there was a long wait for food but they were very busy due to the world Cup. On my second visit the food was served within 15 minutes. The staff were very friendly and the food was really nice. Typical pub fare. Yes it's a bit noisy, but it's in a family holiday park predominantly aimed at people with children, so it shouldn't come as a surprise it's a bit loud.”

  “Ordered the Mac n cheese for myself + double burger and chips for my father. Took over an hour for the food to arrive (restaurant was NOT busy) but we had beer at least to drink (£6.80 for a pint is mad btw). We were hearing a family of 3 complain about waiting over an hour for their food as well, and were preparing to get a refund as well before their dishes arrived (they didn't seem to enjoy their meals either). Mac n cheese tasted like it was a microwave meal, most mediocre dish I've had for a long time & I only ate half before getting tired of bland macaroni in my mouth. Double burger was "okay but made McDonald's look good". Visually at least the burger meat was cooked well done but the burger bun + veg was the usual sort. The fries were cold though, makes you wonder how long it had sat out for before the chef started making the burger. For two dishes that would have almost cost £30 (we bought for £20 due to some main meal deal they do past 4pm on weekdays), it was disappointing to say the least. I expected more from Haven to be honest.”

  “The food is pretty standard pub grub with good offers on the menu including 2 for 20 and kids eat for a £1, which i thought was pretty good. The petite blonde girl who served me was OUTSTANDING, perfect mannerisms, polite and friendly offering relevant alternatives with a smile the whole interaction. This young lady is what the service sector needs more of as she was genuinely the main reason for the 5 stars. Good arrived promptly, again with a smile from a different girl who delivered our food to the table. Really quite shocked at some of the bad reviews as our experience was quite good 👍🏾”

  “How are you charging over £11 for a pasta dish that couldn’t even feed a small dog. Also no cheese, like doesn’t it cost a lot to put some melted cheese on the 6 pieces of pasta you put on my plate. I don’t blame the staff at all, haven are just money grabbers as always.”

  “We had an absolutely phenomenal Sunday roast here! The food was top-tier, and my kids were thrilled with their mac & cheese and pizza. What truly set this experience apart, however, was the exceptional service. A huge thank you to Jessica, who was so patient and attentive while taking our order—she handled the kids' specific requests perfectly. We also want to give a special shout-out to Jaymie. Since we were new to the Sunday roast tradition, he went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. He was incredibly kind and friendly, and he recommended the cauliflower cheese (which he made himself!). It was the perfect hit of cheesy goodness and easily the highlight of the meal. We’ll definitely be back!”

  “Wouldn't recommend going here. While the dining area is nice the food is not great and it's expensive for the quality and quantity. I ordered the curry and I was given a tiny amount of rice and essentially what was half a chicken breast cut into 4 chunks. The drinks are expensive. Staff are friendly. I wish I had looked at reviews before hand.”

  “I have never left a bad review before but I feel as though that I should inform other people that will come here in the future. First of all, we arrived at the Marsh and Barrel 30 minutes before our reservation date (at 1pm on a Sunday) and we were still given a lovey warm welcome. We were a family of 6 with a bigger dog so we had to sit near the window area of the restaurant. We all ordered Sunday roast (with one of us ordering a vegetarian option). However, we all feel as though it was not worth the value at all. It was around £13 for an adults meal and around £8 for a children’s meal. To be completely honest there was not much difference in size between the two unless you paid around £15 for a king size (you get around 2-3 extra slices of meat). What was the most disappointing part of the experience was that we had to pay extra for parsnips, pigs in blankets and cauliflower cheese (around £2-£4 extra)! As we were at the height of excitement looking at the delicious food upon our table, we were met with an appalling taste in our mouths. The carrots were cold, broccoli, meat, roasted potatoes, everything was cold and bland! I almost broke my jaw trying to bite into the so-called “carrots” and roast potatoes. I thought that they were undercooked but another person might say that they prefer crunchy carrots and broccoli. Overall, I would recommend the children’s swamp drink but not the roast dinner. They do add fresh, hot food about every so often so I would recommend if you wait until fresh food comes out in the carvery bit of the restaurant.”

  “Chips were very dry no one at our table ate them and there were 8 of us. The lasagne tasted like a cheap microwave meal and had virtually no meat it was just slush and the burgers tasted microwaved. Awful food for the price.”
