Tired and overpriced

We paid £338 to stay here (£165 B&B and £8 parking). The bar, restaurant and courtyard are modern and inviting but as soon as you climb the stairs to the bedrooms, the cracks begin to appear (literally!). Our room was dark with only a small window and minimum lighting. The bathroom ceiling had mildew and the paint was peeling off. The sink had age lines and the internal doors were knocked and worm.

Disappointing evening meal

We had a good welcome into the pub and the waitress was very nice and informative . The starters were very nice but when it came to the main course it was a big disappointment. The fillet steak was tasteless, the potatoes par cooked and the duck was tough and raw. While we there the couple next to us sent a steak back also.

Rip off, avoid at all coste

Absolute rip off!! Do not bother going, save your well earned money and go elsewhere. £10.45 for a pint of shandy and an orange and Lemonade. Absolutely scandalous. When I queried the cost, the bar tender looked sheepishly at the till, she knew it was overpriced and looked embarrassed. How a pub can charge those prices is ridiculous. In a city centre trendy bar I would expect that, not in a local pub.

Dont bother

Food is okish. I had the steak and asked for medium but it came out rare. The grey haired older woman that runs it is so rude and obnoxious. Love, you live in a little pub that no one cares about. If you were so important you would have retired 20 year ago but instead your on your feet everyday. You’re deluded !

Won't be back!

Booked a table here a week prior for the first time available, 5pm. Bearing in mind I have a child that needs to do the whole routine for school, we walk in at 4:51pm to be told that it will be at least 15-20 minutes before we get our table. The poor waitress was apologetic, but the manager was not and the girl who told us the bad news at the till couldn’t care less . We used to visit this pub regularly, but this is the second time in a row we’ve had an issue with them.

Thats our first last time we will come here.

We visited as a family and we were not impressed. The layout is not accommodating nor warm, the food was not great. I personally ordered the Haloumi starter which lacked flavour and texture and for mains I ordered the chicken and ham pie which tasted odd and had perfectly squared chicken pieces in a white sauce with chunky pieces of bacon; similar to that you get a KG of for a few quid along with a mass produced pastry lid.

Christening what a mistake!

I had booked one of the rooms for my grandsons christening and the quality of the Buffett was very poor. For the money I had paid there was hardly enough food for my guests and the presentation was terrible. It was as if they had forgotten and it was very last minute. I always give a second chance but I will never come here again. It's a shame as the hotel is lovely but the standard of service you would expect here is just not good enough.

Excellent experience

Good, fresh food well cooked, great value for money. Attentive service but not fussy and very well kept beer! As I found out later that they are award winners. The log fire was lovely and cosy and certainly contributed to the warm friendly pub. We will definitely be back, and not just for our 10% discount.

What a shame ...

It's quite simple. If I order steak and ale pie in a beautiful old pub with a pint of Thwaitses, I expect my chips to be fresh out of a chip pan - not chips that have been cooked (probably in an oven) and kept warm in an oven until being served - lukewarm and a bit dry. Basically, if I want oven chips I can have them at home. So it's a BIG thumbs down from me. Shame.
