| Four of us visited today (Saturday)at lunchtime with the main purpose of eating and chatting. We loved the place. The food was great (recommend the stilton and broccoli soup). The fire was lit and the pub was cosy. Staff were very polite and friendly. Granted we didn't visit for the beer but the place deserves some very positive feedback on its staff and ambience. Someone else can do the beer review, but my coke was lovely! BandT - 6 Jan 2007 19:42 |
| Have to say agree with most of the negative comments. We used to live in this place - always warm, friendly, classic village pub with top class beer and good value food. Now decor is cold, staff indifferent and beer/ food nothing special. Shame, used to be a real gem. castleton - 7 Dec 2006 15:31 |
| I dont know which pub these commentors have been visiting but i am a local in this area and the Tostock Gardeners Arms has plenty to offer everybody. the menu is super, the landlord is brilliant with all of the customers and i know them personally and Catrin and Jackie are brilliant at cooking. I belive that the current owners are the best thing for the gardeners Arms, it is a family run pub and i dont think you can expect anything more from them. there is live music, there is a cheery atmosphere and they do the best chips around! as for the comment about the beer, i know for a fact the landlors takes pride over his pint. i dont see any problems with it.. all i can say is that if you dont think it meets your expectations it will be the one day in 365 they will let you down. Try them again. ill raise my glass to the owners because i feel they are doing a brilliant job keep it up guys! i dont hear the regulars complaining!! anonymous - 1 Dec 2006 01:21 |
| I went to the Gardeners Arms randomly the other evening with my husband and was pleasantly surprised. A roaring fire in the lounge, a friendly welcome by the staff and the best home cooked food I have tasted in some time! The cheesecakes on the special boards are definately worth leaving some room for! The best meal out in a while! My husband as a beer drinking was very satisfied with the beer and even handed me the car keys! anonymous - 1 Dec 2006 01:18 |
| used to be really good but has gone downhill badly recently. Food has got too expensive and it's rare that I leave a place after one pint because the beer is so bad..... Real shame as it has fantastic setting and family friendly garden Clintster - 23 May 2006 16:40 |
