The Queen's Head, Dogmersfield

We live in fleet and heard the pub had been totally refurbished with a new modern menu and fast becoming the talk of the town.. Well, they were not wrong and i now know why !
In my opinion it is now the smartest pub in town but in a cosy and relaxing way. The decor and comfortable furniture create a real homely, village pub.
It was busy with locals enjoying a chat/drink with eachother and we had to wait 15 min for a table in the restaurant and it was MIDWEEK ! We'll book next time.
The food was exceptoinal. The service was so friendly and attentitive it surprised us as we were only in a pub and the waiter a mature and professional version of Manuel/Faulty towers.
A great evening was had by all and would recommend it whole heartedly.

The Golden Pot, Shalden

FOLLOWING A COUPLE OF GOOD REPORTS FROM FRIENDS AND KNOWING IT TO BE UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP MY FAMILY DECIDED TO DINE HERE THIS EVENING.
WHAT A SURPRISE ! TRANSFORMED FROM A TIRED NEGLEGTED BOOZER TO A COSY AND COMFORTABLE RESTAURANT IN A SHABBY CHIC KIND OF WAY. THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS AND THE SERVICE VERY FRIENDLY AND ATTENTITIVE WITHOUT BEING TOO FUSSY. THE 2 ROARING FIRES WERE THE FINAL TOUCH.
THERE WAS A LARGE PARTY IN THE "SKITTLES ALLEY" NEXT DOOR AND THEY SEEMED TO BE HAVING A GREAT TIME.
LOVELY EVENING AND THOROUGHLY RECOMMENDED.
