| I really hope they make a good job of the refurbishment. For the record, I've always been well served here, and didn't think that the staff were unattentive at all. On the contrary, I found them friendly and helpful. Plus the beer (real ales from Vale Brewery just down the road) has always been on good form. My one critism was the limited choice of food for vegetarians, but what I had was always good quality. sloe_jane - 14 Sep 2008 23:33 |
| The pub is currently closed for a much needed refurbishment. I hope this doesn't mean it'll turn into a poncey wine bar. Hopefully the young lady behind the bar is being refurbished for a faster model. Her problem was she was too busy talking to her friends and the locals to notice there were usually people behind the locals trying to get to the bar and also nobody in the pub was very quick at clearing tables. Having been in there for a couple of beers one evening we noted that 3 tables hadn't been cleared of the leftovers, plates and glasses and an hour later they still hadn't. Doesn't take a genius to figure out that you need to keep the place tidy, but then I don't think many of the staff were genuises. Still a nice pub in a nice location. The food is reasonable but a bit pricey for what it is. Still need to ask the staff to give you the other half of your pint when the head has died off it. Looking forward to it reopening again to see if it has improved. Hopefully they'll have a decent premium lager instead of the dreadfully flavourless rubbish called Carlsberg. snert - 9 Sep 2008 09:36 |
| old rougue and anonymous hit on one huge problem, lack of attentiveness by staff. I have been to this pub tonight and the lack of care from the young lady behind the bar to look after the business was frankly not great. two or three regulars in the bar while the outside area had at least 5 tables with previous customers detritous left is appaling. maybe Im being hard on her but the management team need a kick up the tush for allowing it to happen rabc1963 - 12 Jun 2008 00:14 |
| A very nice pub although the staff are a bit hit and miss with their attentiveness. Food appears to be good by all accounts but I have not eaten there. Beer is good although you more often than not have to ask them to top it up with the other half of the pint as they do get a bit carried away with the head on it. Not cheap but not a reason to avoid at all. Lovely view of the windmill across the road. Has some b&b rooms as well but not stayed there. Needs a lick of paint and the staff need to learn how to clear the tables quicker after people have left after eating. anonymous - 26 Sep 2006 16:18 |
| Fantastic, everything a country pub should be. Good ale, excellent food (with some interesting and more unusual dishes such as mutton stew and roast pheasant), good deserts board too. Friendly, efficient service, make sure you book a table though on weekends. Brill makes a great place for walk to burn off lunch, and you can park by the old windmill. The pub itself has excellent views over the surrounding country, and no doubt the terrace will be popular in summer. OldRogue - 14 Mar 2006 13:58 |
