| VERY DISAPPOINTING!! Food was terrible, service was even worse (slow and v. rude!). This was my first and LAST visit! emmav80 - 19 Aug 2011 11:41 |
| Tried twice now to have a decent meal since the latest refurb and twice been disappointed. Nearly an hour from ordering to being served, skeleton bar staff and low quality tasting food. I miss the char-grill type food that they used to cook in full view of the punters, the mixed grill I had was terrible. I now have vouchers from Marstons in a way of an apology but they wont be used here. lucky1111 - 28 Nov 2010 18:27 |
| This used to be a regular haunt of mine back when it was called the Ferndown and it was on the main road (i.e. before the by-pass was built), and that was a long time ago. Revisited recently when passing through and was very happy with what I found. The Ringwood bitter was clear, fresh and tasty and the food menu was a delight with a lot of variety and some unusual dishes. My wife and I settled on a vegetarian kiev and a parsnip parcel both were unusual dishes and both were very delicious and well presented. Could not fault the beer or the food. I'll be back.

| Large red-brick roadside pub with a big carpark, an HW Wellfed establishment. H W Wellfed=Marstons=W & D. and that about says it, cloned menu, cloned beer and no atmosphere at all. Saying that it was crowded on both my recent visits, crowded with youngsters who seemed to be having a good time and sprinkled with older folk, not old, merely older, mostly dining. They looked as if they felt out of place, as did I. Two bitters, Ringwood Best and Pedigree, both looked ok but were more or less tasteless, interchangeable even. Didn't try the food, plastic menu's put me off. My rating (on two visits) 4. A very sad shadow of its former self. Runningdog - 29 Feb 2008 10:26 |
| This pub used to be very nice, until the refurb. The plastic chain pub signage outside looks awful, The food has also suffered dixon75 - 21 Jun 2007 10:00 |
