The Compasses, Stansfield

Lovely place, only recently opened, good atmosphere. Great food, I had smoked salmon, steak and ice cream, hubbie had pate, steak and ginger pudding, all exceptional. Only dissapointment is the dessert menu. Ginger pudding and sticky toffee pudding in Summer? also ice cream is shop bought. More interesting puddings please. Prices are good too, sausage and mash �9, rib eye steak with pepper sauce �14.

The Plough Inn, Rede

Lovely pub in a pleasant setting (we often go on a good dog walk starting from the car park for 2 miles in a loop through countryside back to the green). Sunday roast is a winner, and the evening menu (big blackboard as you walk in) has lots of tempting options! Took me several minutes to choose... One fish dish was overly greasy but otherwise pretty reliable.

The Queens Head, Hawkedon

We've been here a few times now, and the food is always great. Puds were a bit ordinary, but the steaks are fab, and come on a huge plate with all the trimmings.

Pub itself is very nicely fitted out, beers & ciders are well kept and the staff were all friendly and helpful. 8/10.
