| Lovely old pub,idyllic location Pity about the service If you visit in winter you may be fortunate However in summer the majority of staff are unfriendly and unhelpful, and often rude Cannot recommend this establishment! fwbear - 22 Mar 2008 00:06 |
| First went to this pub in about 1997 and boy was it good. Been four or five times since but wont be going again. It has really gone downhill. Dont know what went wrong but needs to do something quick. phaser - 31 Jan 2008 16:26 |
| Dissappointing. Earmarked this for a second visit after calling for a drink a few weeks ago. Olde worlde, low beamed pub with plenty of atmosphere. Most tables reserved so lucky to get seated. Decent range of drinks and reasonably friendly staff (better staff a few weeks ago). Ordered food, didn't have to wait long but it didn't live up to the popularity of the place. I had Game Pie, the game had obviously escaped, under done veggies.Wife had Gammon which she said was nice but difficult to decide what the accompaniment was. Big let down when we had made a special effort to return. Car-parking appalling by the way. ebateman - 15 Aug 2007 19:49 |
| Went there for a midweek meal (Wednesday night) after phoning to confirm first. the telephone was answered after a bit of a wait and the person was not that friendly or helpful, but did say that we should be ok for a bar table. On arrival, again the person behind the bar was not the most friendly person in the world, terse, short, abrubt but he did do his job. After choosing from the menu (Waaaaay too many choices) the food was served quickly and by a friendly waitress. The food was very good and very tasty. No critism of the food at all. wadders - 11 Jul 2007 19:25 |
| Went there for food and a beer on a Sunday afternoon. I thought, because of the reputation, that the food would be excellent. Unfortunately it wasn't, and all the fish dishes that we had were from the freezer, and my cod was thin and very greesy, I was left with the feeling that you have when you have eaten too much old deep fat fryer fat! Far too much stuff on the menu, much better to have fewer things that are freshly cooked. Also it's hard to find a seat, not surprising as it's a small pub, but it seems odd to close nearly half the pub at 2 as it's the restaurant bit, when the food is served all day. The atmosphere of the pub is still great though. markjcockram - 28 Mar 2007 16:52 |
