| The location of this pub is superb. The grounds are immaculate, with a beautiful garden overlooking a lake. I tried a pint of Midnight Stout, Thwaites and Old Dog Bitter, and all three were delicious. My wife and I ate a three course meal and it was utterly wonderful. The portions were of a good size. The pie that arrived on the table next to us was huge. And it was real pie! I could think of nothing better than sitting in the grounds all afternoon, reading the newspaper, reading a book, or enjoying the converstion of friends, watching the wildlife on the lake, drinking beer, then eating a fabulous meal in this well-kept pub. Not a local pub, but definitely one for special occasions, and perhaps, a more discerning customer. 10/10! generalstaal - 6 Aug 2008 20:48 |
| Wow, nice location..! The menu looked outstanding with lots of seasonal fare and regional produce; sadly for us we couldn’t reserve a table for the evening meal as it was fully booked, not a mean feat considering the size of the place. Excellent ales (there was a minimum of five to choose from with two local ales) also a fine array of bottled continental beer and an extensive wine list….. We picked up our pints and settled in a bay window surrounded by a library, the beer was outstanding! Sadly if there is a criticism it was that the doors were open everywhere, with the central heating on and a raging fire going in the middle of June…..? Not very environmental, but I suppose it was so hot in places to accommodate the varying ages of the cliental?? Jammahn - 29 Jun 2008 14:10 |
| Ok, so the location is cool, but the food is mediocre, the attitude towards children is decidedly snotty, considering they expect you to buy full adult meals for them. You decide, but different attitude altogether at the Combermere Arms, Burleydam (and same chain!) ThePrincess - 27 Aug 2007 23:03 |
| I agree entirely with bargroper although not so keen on the non-smoking. However, I suppose we're going to have to get used to it, dammit. mousefan - 11 Aug 2006 20:33 |
| No amount of superlatives will suffice to describe the experience this pub has to offer. Its country house setting with lake and immaculate gardens is a fine introduction to the delights inside. Excellent real ales (at least 6) and high quality food in a mainly smokeless zone (The whole place is to be smoke free soon). What makes the place special however is the warm atmosphere generated by appreciative clients and cultivated by staff carefully selected for their natural ability to keep everyone happy. Why am I telling you all this? I need to keep the place to myself. bargroper - 1 Jan 2006 07:11 |
