In a nice location, the small basic bar offers 2 real ales Bombardier and Youngs Special. The restaurant is large, very gastropub with an interesting menu which is served in a stylish way, but unfortunately the cooking is not up to the style and prices. Food was overcooked, and dry, a disappointment because the sevice and ambience was good.

Stumbled upon the Stag by chance. Friendly staff, good beer, bar food was good and came quick . Bit expensive but not excessive.

Lovely village pub with a small but welcoming bar and a larger restaurant to the rear. Had a couple of drinks in the front bar and some banter with the locals before moving on to a meal in the restaurant. The special, Honey baked ham served on a bed of mash was great! There was a good friendly atmosphere and the staff whilst busy were polite and attentive. The manager made a point of stopping by to introduce him self which was a nice touch. Having noticed on the boards outside that more “pub style” specials are in the offing, we will be going back soon.

What a lovely night I had at this pub. The atomosphere was great, from the small but cosy bar area with its real fire, to the restaurant round the other side of the building. Friendly attentive staff and fab food always makes a great combination. Its the only one in the village but I say lucky village!

I don't like to complain unless I'm really annoyed and this unfortunately was the case last Saturday. I've been to the Stag 3 times - the first 3 years ago for dinner was great. The second, we had a big problem, and the third we left in disgust.

My problem is with the maître d' - he consistently acts like you, the customer have 'got it wrong' and has actually told me I was an inconvenience. Within common decency, I don't care how much of an inconvenience my party is - they should try to accomodate and The Stag in mentmore would not. All the other staff seemed fine.

The crux was that we made special notice we would have 2 young children, and he was annoyed when we arrived that we were not 8 adults. They had 'lost' some high chairs they had last time so there were none. The menu had just 5 items on it. The waiter told me there was additional specials. When I dared to ask the maître d' what they were he told me really abruptly that those 5 items WERE the specials.

Several of us wanted the roast pork and we were then told by maître d' that they'd run out and that we shouldn't assume it was freezer rubbish and that if we took the time to look around, they were VERY BUSY (at 1.15pm) and that if we'd like to wait an hour there might be more available.

This was the last straw. When I went to have a quiet word, he wanted to argue, not listen, said I was an inconvenience and that I must pay for the drinks before we left (which we hadn't drunk!)

No reply from the website in complaint.
