I was back here today after an unusually long absence. The bar boasted a wide range of guest beers which were widely sampled by my table with approval. Friendly and efficient service with both the landlord and landlady keeping on top of the surges in demand. I haven't eaten there for ages, so cannot comment directly on the food.

Seer Green is well served by "The Cricks", and now also by the re-opened and radically renovated Three Horseshoes, . Perhaps someone will open a review on the latter, which I have found to be good value so far?

Very likeable smart pub, with good area for drinking. Friendly staff, lots of interest, good bar snacks, average quality beer from an interesting range.

I came here for dinner the other night and the food was nothing short of amazing!! It was worth EVERY PENNY that we spent. I will recommend this pub to everyone and definately come back!
Contrary to the comment below, I would go back time and time again for the food alone. You can tell that the chefs have a lot of talent and with a background in catering I know what I'm talking about.
There is not a place for miles around that I can say compares to the fantastic meal I had last week.
My other half who finds something to complain about every plate of food he sees could not find a bad word to say.
Well done.

12 months on since my last visit, and my comments remain very much the same, welcoming pub with a good range of beers, but overpriced, pretentious food. Unfortunately that means I will go somewhere else in future that also does good beer and whose food is better value.

As a villager was delighted when the pub was refurbished and became quite a fan; good atmosphere, well kept beer, great bar snacks and food.
However, the last 6 or 7 encounters have not been positive. You can't eat at short notice, it's always fully booked, if you pop in for a drink you can't sit down because all the tables are reserved for diners. The last 2 times I was there for a drink, we all had to stand around empty reserved tables for 2 rounds before leaving. Feels like they are only interested in Diners.
My last encounter was for a Christmas do for 15. The food was still tasty but the portions were mean, the service very slow and the staff stressed. My side of the famous chips arrived when we had all finished eating; 9 chips for £2.50! Those of us from the village in the gathering, about 10, all agreed that the portions were much smaller than in the summer and we felt a bit ripped off. Not value for money or a good dining experience in such a chaotic atmosphere. We will not be back to eat again. I had heard as much from talk in the village but I like to se for myself, I was disappointed but not surprised.
The Cricketers is a victim of its own success (and I am pleased they are doing well) but with it the portions have been reduced and the prices hiked. If you find yourself without the kids unexpectedly and decide to pop to the village pub for eats and drinks and a short walk home; the usual benefits of a village local; forget it! If you want to drink and chat you have to do it standing!
I feel like I have lost my village pub and in its place is a pretentious, overpriced restaurant. Not really what a village needs. Shame!
