| Had dinner here last week and the service is much improved since the change of ownership. The new landlord is very friendly and chatty and the bar staff were helpful, even bringing us drinks to our tables. The food was excellent - some genuinely 'home made' stuff and the veg was not frozen but real proper veg. They are trying to serve food from local sources as far as possible which is always good. I like the fact that this is a traditional village pub. There is no awful music or sports TV (hooray!). There are usually 4 different real ales on tap and the ones I sampled the other night were in very good shape. If you've been put off this pub by past horror stories I would urge you to give it another try - you might be surprised. kbsc - 8 Feb 2011 15:15 |
| This is a fantastic pub. The new landlord and his team are very friendly, the food is excellent and good value for money, the beer very well kept (a fine range of local brews), plus in winter the two real fires are lit, one of which is in a 17th hearth in the central 'snug' area. The Crook is welcoming to locals and visitors alike. patakas - 9 Jan 2011 21:47 |
| I love this pub, its a very warm welcome in a sleepy village. The food is excellent since new ownership, homemade fresh dishes and I can really recommend the sunday roast. Good ales and atmosphere. We often visit this pub for lunch, when passing through. JH386 - 2 Dec 2010 12:25 |
| The Crook & Shears is under new ownership. There is a new chef and roasts are now served every Sunday from 12-4pm. miora71 - 4 Oct 2010 16:23 |
| Didn't notice that the prices were expensive here. But I did notice the particularly poor service. Neither of the two bar staff who were standing chatting to one another looked particularly interested in serving us. Glasses were left on tables from previous customers. I don't see a need for this when a pub is not busy and staff are standing around with nothing else to do. Nevertheless, this seemed a nice pub in an excellent village location. It has the potential to be much better. Four fairly standard real ales were on - Ringwood Best & 49er, Fullers London Pride and Taylor Landlord, alongside Stowford Press cider. blue_scrumpy - 8 Apr 2010 17:57 |
