Went a few weeks ago with friends and a child. Service was pretty poor. Asked for things and they didn’t come. Asked for outdoor heating lamps to be put on, had to go back into restaurant only to be told by a manger they don’t work (but the waitress never came back to tell us that). Food took such a long time and was quite disappointing for the price. Ordered food that didn’t come and was told by the manager they didn’t put it through despite me asking when ordering… no apology from her or anything. Strange experience. Wouldn’t go back

It's a shame this is the third time we've been, and we had an awful experience with a view of walking out before eating. Firstly the cocktails we ordered were not as described - they came in a standard coke/juice glass with no garnishes (as described on the menu) and when we asked if they were the correct drinks, we were told by the person who looked like the manager, that the garnish was just rosemary and we were better off without it! Secondly after waiting for an hour after starters, we tried to call the waitress and she thought we wanted the bill - clearly not paying attention to our table (meanwhile other couples/families had come and gone at this point). Turns out our food must have been sitting and waiting as it came out 10 mins later and was semi warm. Overall it was not pleasant and a shame as we had brought family from abroad to enjoy a pub lunch. Will think twice about going here again.

We were greeted by a wonderful lady called Mandy who escorted us to our table and provided really great customer survive. Nothing was too much to ask, and she was a friendly lady. Her daughter Jade is head chef and executed wonderful food for us all to enjoy. The pulled chicken croquettes were so good and the burgers, steaks and mushroom and ale pie were of good quality. The deserts were also very good, with ice cream being sourced from a local dairy farm specifically for the restaurant. We will defiantly go back again, perhaps in the summer when we can enjoy their lovely beer garden which seats up to 100 people.

We are fairly regular visitors to this lovely little establishment , so when we got through an email advising us of their new Spring menu, we booked to go out with our friends for a Friday night treat. A treat it was indeed. Our friends had the steak , and the Garden plot menu with Butternut Squash, and we had the Chicken Duo and the Lamb Shank Shepherds Pie. I was certainly not the only one to order the Lamb Shank Shepherds Pie, it was certainly a popular choice ! All was cooked beautifully and very tasty, and we were served by a lovely new recruit , Lily, only her 3rd night, and she couldn’t have been more helpful. The small trifle and hot drink was also much enjoyed by the men in the party, and the sticky toffee pudding remains a favourite of mine. Great little place, welcoming and efficient staff, a very enjoyable evening, would happily recommend.

My wife and I were visiting with new friends. She ordered veg curry, which was barely warm, poor presentation and dry naan bread! I ordered steak and ale pie. This was abysmal ….. cold, poorly cooked and poorly presented. My wife left half of her meal and I left three quarters of mine ! We did not complain at the time because we were with new friends but when the staff removed our plates they didnot ask if we’d enjoyed the meals or if there was a problem. Overall a waste of money and time. A location to be avoided!!!

We visited this restaurant last night at 5pm after pre booking and pre ordering. The restaurant was quiet when we arrived. On arrival we waited to be seated where one particular waiter walked past us twice before eventually coming over. He was miserable. During the entire meal we didn't get any kind of conversation out of him let alone a smile. His shirt was not ironed and he just looked unkempt. He obviously just didn't want to be at work, I get that Christmas is a busy time of year but if you are in a customer facing job you really need some interpersonal skills. That said the food was lovely. We never usually have any issues with this restaurant so hoping this is just a one off.

This was an awful experience. Staff was not particularly welcoming (and clearly poorly trained) and the food was terrible. All we had was a winter soup (butternut squash and sweet potatoes) which was watery and had no flavour at all. This was served with bread that was equally tasteless. We then ordered a dessert to share - a chocolate and orange tart, part of their festive menu - which was literally inedible. This was supposed to be served with a 'strawberry coulis' which turned out to be dots of what looked like jelly on the plate. Absolutely horrendous! My friend told the waitress very diplomatically that we hadn't been able to eat the dessert and the response we had was 'I'm sorry about that'! Will never go and eat there again and would not recommend it to anyone.

They agreed to sing a little happy birthday to our friend. Food arrived relatively quickly and it was lovely. We used to be regulars at this place before the world went nuts and it didn’t change much (face masks, one way system etc). It’s a charming and atmospheric pub, food is decent and staff are lovely.

We booked for a lunch, to be surprised by the Christmas decorations and festivity! Every inch of the pub restaurant has been clearly carefully decorated, giving that warm festive feel; lights, a tree and of course crackling fires! As you enter there is a lovely board, welcoming you into the festive journey you are now embarking on. Staff, as always, were more than pleasant and attentive. They gave good clear guidance on how to adhere to COVID guidelines and made me and my family feel safe.The food was terrific as always! The mussels are a must!

On arrival we wore our face masks and was greeted by a young lady with no mask who ran us through the covid nonsense and then showed us to our table in a room with other people sat not so far away yet the other room was completely empty so we asked to be moved which an older female member of staff said “no the other tables are booked” I reminded her that we also booked as well.was the tables reserved for particular people?? She moved us.Once seated this particular older member of staff came to take our drinks order and because it’s table service and at times through experience it can take time to get get drinks I ordered two which to her disgust she turned and said “are you questioning my ability to serve drinks”To which I replied “if I want two drinks I’ll have two drinks”She then replied “is this table going to be a problem”I said “that depends on the service”(She was not wearing a mask)Thankfully she did not continue to serve us.Waitress no2Very nice girl very well mannered couldn’t do enough for us hence she got a good tipThe foodVery basic the king prawn starter not great the prawns were cold supposed to be pan fried did not seem like they had touched a pan.The lamb shoulder had so much fat on it that to be honest could have been removed before serving it was that obvious it was like I was giving my dinner an hysterectomy never was it slow cooked otherwise it would have fell apart broccoli was cold and under cooked al dent’e was an under statement.Dessert was bog standard you can hardly get that wrong,Over all we are foodies and enjoy eating out and know a decent meal when we have one but the food was not good for the cost £16 for a small piece of fatty lamb shoulder another few quid I could of had a decent steak at miller&carter which was were we should have gone and will go next time.I’ve only given three stars because of the younger waitress The food and quality of produce is below standard.

Ordered prawn cocktail starter. It said king prawns but they were not, a quarter of the size. Not a good start. Main course chicken and mushroom pie. Two small pieces of chicken in the pie, totally inadequate. The mash potato had a skin on it because it had been sitting on the plate for ages before serving, veg tasteless. The only plus side was their handling of covid restrictions. I never complain at the time because the restaurant and staff should be up to speed, so not thinking of what they serve to their customers.

Was down this way today to visit Bows Boutique () and wanted to make a day of it so booked to go for lunch here. Booked table to allow for traffic and going to the shop but we got to the pub an hour early and they managed to fit us in and even better in the stunning garden area. Food was lovely, staff were very welcoming and friendly and the pub is situated in a stunning location. You could tell I wasn't a local because I was watching the planes go over Even during the current situation, they had lots of measures in place such as hand sanitiser stations, one way system, ordering via the app (if you preferred) and allowing set times for your stay. My mum and I had a lovely sunny early lunch and we will be returning.

We visited the Battle Axes last week whilst we were staying at a near local glamping site. It came out like one of the closest oubs around so we decided to give it a go..The pub has a nice and cozy interiors with a lot of space and atmosphere. The precautions for Covid were top notch with social distancing, one way systems and so on - well done for this!We got greeted by Richard, he was brilliant, very nice guy and super helpful.We had some sweet potato kofta for startes which arrived promptly, I loved those bites. Richard suggested us some nice Spritz which we agreed and they were great. I had the chicken burger, I loved the bun, the filling was great and the chicken was full of flavors and crispy! The chips were ace too, especially combined with those sauces. I didn't had a chance to try the onion rings as they were finished but I'm sure they must have been amazing. Instead I had some salad which was still good. Overall it was an amazing experience with the great customer service of Richardm the dishes served perfectly on time and the nice atmosphere inside the pub, all the staff seems ace.I will be back, I saw some very nice Sunday Roast - who's gonna resist?

Carly the other evening was absolutely fantastic. We had some special requests and were a bit difficult to be fair, and she served us with a smile and humour, and it was just fab. A decent place with awesome staff. I will most certainly be returning here as you can’t get better than the service I received. Thanks Carly, you were a star Louie-Mae

It's many years since I've been at the Battle Axes and I was thrilled at how great our lunch was. All precautions are clearly being taken very seriously around cleanliness etc and the food was absolutely delicious. Mandy, Karen and Lucy (could have been Lisa - apologies!) were all wonderful and we all - including the toddler! - had a great lunch. Definitely won't leave it so long until the next visit!

So came for our Sunday dinner, as we have been coming for years, would like to say a massive thank you to all staff. I am a very picky eater. If something is wrong I’ve always told a member of staff. I’ve nevevr been let down. Unrecognised or been over ignored, by any member of staff. I and my family would like to say thank you each and everyone of you, you have all done a great job... on our sundays.. we love seeing you all, and look forward to next Sunday.. thanks from the Oliver’s, the Craig’s, and the Atkins family’s ....

We came here after visiting a horrible pub the previous week. We were celebrating our anniversary. The food was lovely the squid was fresh and the mixed grill perfectly cooked. The portion sizes are very generous and the price of the food is very good value. The service was very friendly and relaxed and we were not kept waiting long for food. We will certainly be returning. Thank you very much

Really good food served by a very friendly lady called Connie. The choice was excellent and cooked very well. Also turned up very quick. The friendly staff were excellent and wore masks to help stop the virus which has not happened at a lot of restaurants I have visited. Would recommend 100%

We visited here over the weekend, and its the place to go, if you want a safe friendly, and homely feel, the staff are always friendly and the food is alway good, hats off to the management, for keeping to the strick rules of covid and trying to keep everyone safe, although I could see some customers, trying to think they are above the rules and the staff quickly explained the rules again, clearly some people you cant help, but the staff just keep smiling. Well done to you all, not all heros wear capes
