| Pub has now got a sign outside saying that they have ceased trading and has been closed since May. razor - 17 Jul 2011 11:11 |
| I would just like to make everyone aware that "indyanna" would be spending a lot of time at the trout, due to the fact that she owns the trout. This is infact the licencee Tracy Grant using her daughters name to rave about the trout, due to it standards falling and her knowing that its getting a poor review online. I am a very reliable source. countrysidelover - 10 Sep 2009 20:31 |
| Just had lunch there today. Wife and I had a sandwich each which was served with salad - OK, children has macarone cheese and garlic bread £4-5 each and it was obvious their food had come from a tin - I tasted it and it was really sugary - nice one heinz! We intended to eat outside as we were tempted by the childrens play area - very limited and very tired looking as was the rest of the garden - including the benches which could have done with sanding down and a good coat of preservative, all in all outside was very rough - cars zooming past along the road, although not the fault of the pub itself do spoil the ambience - in the end we were forced inside by wasps....which wasn't much more pleasant to be honest - old uncomfortable dining furniture, though a decent high chair for the youngest, decor dated too. Beer was OK though. tso617 - 29 Aug 2009 21:02 |
| Stayed here for one night in August, room was nice, breakfast excellent. Have had a few evening meals here....cod as stated is nice, but I have had better from a 'Superfish', the steak was nice and tender and came with a nice sauce. It seems to attract a mixed bag of customers in the evenings, but then variety is the spice of life, so no problems there. The service was good and staff friendly but the beer garden had a bunch of youngsters ( male and female ) who were using colourful language ( no surprises there ) one of the lads who was too lazy to walk 20 yds to the toilet, urinated in the beer garden...great if anyone eats at that table the following day. Definitely needs a bit of staff presence in the garden in the evening....and in case he reads this...keep it in your pants son, or drink coke until you've grown up a bit more. razor - 30 Aug 2007 21:54 |
| I am new to the Bickleigh area and found The Trout quite easily. Their huge car park was almost full, as was their beer garden. They display a very extensive menu outside the pub so you can browse before you enter and we were spolit for choice - there is literally something for all tastes. We were greeted by a very friendly young lady who couldn't do enough for us. We had a beautiful bottle of wine (from an extensive wine list) and after a lot of delibertion choose our food. This arrived after about half an hour which given how busy they were was very prompt. It looked good enough to eat!!!! I had a local whole Sole and my husband had Cod and Chips. Both were absolutley gorgeous and my husband said it was the best Cod he had ever had!!! The waitress then offered us desserts which were on display in a huge cabinet and were very mouthwatering. How could we refuse?!?! Luckily for us this pub is on our doorstep and is now our local, espescailly as we are non smokers. We have eaten there five times in the last month and have never had a bad meal (although booking is essential as they are very busy). I would urge anyone to go out of their way to try it out as it one of the best places to eat. Our neighbours go there regularly as they have climbing frames and bouncy castles for the kids as well as a toddler's and children's menu. indyanna - 30 Apr 2007 13:41 |
