| As a local I would love to have a local pub that was cosy, had some good ales on tap & was pleasant to be at. Sadly, I cannot say that about the Duke of Wellington. Its location does mean that it is very easy to get to & it can benefit greatly from when it's good weather; yet it is right on quite a busy road - not so great. The atmosphere inside has never (to me) quite appeared to be welcoming, more slightly, nervously on edge; at weekends this place can appear to be a city-centre O'Neills (not welcome in my book). The ales tend to be of fairly average quality, evne if the staff try their best to be attentive & kind; too often though they are talking to their friends. Moose82 - 19 Nov 2009 11:11 |
| Came here for a Sunday pub lunch with two small children. Went for the carvery, which was very good, and they did a good job helping us with the children (getting high chairs, answering questions about ingredients, etc.). Prices were very reasonable, and most of the tables were reserved which has to be a good sign. Would happily go back again. philwhitehouse - 26 Apr 2009 13:54 |
| Saw Seb Coe in here; he lives locally. He politely asked the barmaid if he could have a tab. In a broad Irish accent, the barmaid replied 'I suppose so. But you won't do a runner, will you ? Cos we'd never catch you !' Tend to agree with reasonedview; this used to be a very mediocre place. I shall check it out and report. No rating. leftfield - 14 Jan 2009 11:18 |
| What a rave review from Harrythecat! Curious, when I look at his/her's other reviews there aren't any, perhaps it's just chance. I haven't been in for about a year because the last visit was not very 'exciting' to say the least - indifferent beer and service just for starters, but perhaps evrything has changed. I wont leave a rating because maybe it is vastly improved, I'll go and take a look. Reasonedview - 14 Jan 2009 11:07 |
| The Duke of Wellington is unique in looks and character, a place full of local history which is well worth finding out more. We visited the pub between Christmas and the New Year, sat in front of a roaring open fire and enjoyed a light lunch of club sandwiches - the meat included in the sandwich was excellent. The Duke is dog friendly with attentive staff and a happy and relaxed atmosphere. We were visiting friends in the area so came back later for dinner, again sitting close to the open fire. The home cooked meal was excellent with superb meat which we found out is bought locally in the village - always good to hear. We thought the food was very good value for money and will definitely visit again when we are next in the area. We also discovered that there are rooms available and were kindly shown around one which has a lot of old world charm with a modern jaccuzi bath - will stay here next time we are visiting friends. Having looked at previous reviews was rather surprised as we found the place charming and enjoyed our visit, obviously what ever the problems were in the past they are now long gone. harrythecat - 28 Dec 2008 10:26 |
