This is an alright kind of place but only go there when it is quiet.
As it is a tourist hell hole when it is busy with coach loads of grannies everywhere.
Garden is alright too.

7/10

Ladygooner - step outside the front door of this pub, walk past the church and down the hill and you will find The Rugglestone Inn - much nicer ale, food and people!

First visit here in 25 years. Once a good pub, but has had the heart ripped out of it. Beer was OK, some of the clientele not so. Particularly a group a walkers who thought it their god given right to block the door into the garden with their kit.

I can only reiterate some of the previous comments. I went in here with members of my family. My elderly parents just wanted coffee. Myself my husband and my brother had ale. Quite a good pint really. However when I
asked if I had to pay for the coffee in another part of the pub the barman said "does there look as though there is anywhere else?". I felt quite small. Before that when I was going to order he just stared at me. If he thinks this is
amusing then he is mistaken. A very rude man. They have also tried to make it
very modern. Bad idea. People prefer old looking pubs. If its the last pub left in the country. Would I go there even though I love ale? Let me think. NO NO and NO

The WORST customer service I have ever received in a restaurant/pub.

In short, don't ever complain about your meal (even though you are paying for it), as the chef sent mine back with a message to say that my food was in fact cooked how I ordered it, even though it blatantly wasn't.

No apologies or excuses for the rude behaviour by the waitress, chef and manager, just got my money refunded and a reminder that I was in the wrong. If you would like to avoid a potentially stressful and embarressing evening, then DON'T GO TO THE OLD INN-WIDECOME!!
