Great place for Sunday Lunch. Excellent choice and plenty of veg

·

The lunch I had was tasty, but, given the numerous vegetarian choices shown on the on-line Restaurant menu, I was very disappointed on arrival to find only 1 vegetarian meal on the lunch menu & nothing at all on the Specials board.Good thing I like roasted red pepper!

·

Beautiful food, friendly service and welcoming establishment. Highly recommended the Sunday lunch.... and puddings were amazing!

·

Beautiful pub in a beautiful location, meal was amazing

·

The food & service was excellent. We went as a party of four. The place was lovely & clean & very welcoming.We did not have to wait to long for our food & there was a table service for drinks. We will definitely be going there again.

Judging by the majority of reviews on here, the only explanation for our experience, must be that the manager had angered his chef so much on Saturday evening, that they had walked out and left the manager to be the chef for the night.Starters were ok, deep fat fried, definitely seen the exact same food in Lidl. One starter did not show up until the other seven starters had been eaten and after we had asked for it twice.Mains, asked for three rib eye, one medium and two rare, all showed up grey and looked like they had been boiled in dishwater. The previous days chips had just been put back in the deep fat fryer, even though we had asked for sautéed potatoes. Duck and orange had been caramelised solid (can’t deep fat fry that), and the sauce was gravy with some chopped up orange peel. Gammon and egg, also rock solid, and frozen mixed veg still frozen. Burger did not even arrive. Steaks were collected and we asked for the bill for our drinks and starters as the mains were revolting and inedible.Unhelpful staff did not apologise or return to tell us this would not be possible but instead left us sat there waiting for a further 20 minutes. At which point I asked again for the bill and the girl chatting to the other waiting staff at the bar told me that the manager had said we had to pay for mains also, even though the burger hadn’t even arrived, 3 steaks had been sent back and the remaining meals were still sat on the table untouched, (still yet to see sight of any kind of bill or hear any kind of apology).I asked if it would be easier if we just left without paying at all, as they were unprepared to give us the bill for the starters and drinks, and the girl at the bar couldn't have looked less bothered if she tried and just grunted and shrugged her shoulders, whilst emphasising further that the manager wouldn't come and speak to us directly.As we walked out of the pub the manager instructed a member of staff (which we later discovered was his son), to move his car to block the carpark to prevent us from leaving.Finally, after refusing to speak to us and leave the kitchen during the time of our earlier requests to speak with him, the manager then left the kitchen to hurl abuse at us whilst we were stood outside unable to leave, called the police (still unsure as to the reason for his call), shout that he had CCTV (good - viewing the CCTV would reveal just how much of a madman he was/is), and then finally manhandle and scream at the girl that was previously behind the bar, who turned out to be his daughter, ushering her aggressively back inside - this we have on video.The result was that the entire £252 bill was paid (mainly because one member of our party could not handle the mental reaction from the landlord and two members of staff – his children), despite one meal not arriving, three being sent back, and 4 remaining on the table. At least it gives us all a story to look back on in disbelief.In contrast, the following day we visited a different pub, who were also delayed in delivering our meals (mainly as it was Mother’s Day and they were very busy), and they apologised, and offered to refund us as the food hadn't arrived and would be a lengthy wait. That is all that was needed really.If you are staying in a holiday let in the area, visit the White Hart Village Inn if you fancy a Fawlty Towers experience.

My frozen lidil food wasnt even defrosted (locals confirmed it’s all frozen lidil food…) Only half of us received our main course over an hour period of first of us receiving our Iceland/lidil mains. My medium rare ribeye came and it was just burned black stewing steak. (Cooking in fairy liquid, I can still taste the fairy)It’s basically a faulty towers run by a short Irish Fella and his fiery kids who are only as good as you’d spent being raised by the owners in question. (Not a lot up there) . The owner even pushed my wife so hard she fell over when she complained, her leg was bleeding and couldn’t even walk home, she is still recovering. Police came, loads of dramas, This is the sort of place you will be walking in to. Enjoy or avoid

Nice and friendly staff, quick service and good enough food. Was quite busy for a Tuesday night. Good food.

·

Really dissapointing. Frozen vege, watery peppercorn sauce with no flavour whatsoever and frozen hash browns with the duck. £19 for that steak is well overpriced

·

What a gem or a pub and restaurant. Wow! Friendly welcome from all staff and the chef. Clean and masks worn and great service.Historic building with a lovely atmosphere with ghost stories, beams and the open log fire.The food was outstanding, from the most juice garlic bread to the tender steaks and great portions of sweet desserts.Thank you Khalid and team for a wonderful evening and I cannot recommend your place enough.No foodie photos as we ate the lot but see you soon for more!
