Burlton Inn Restaurant in Shropshire

Sort of stumbled across this lovely pub, last Saturday, whilst looking for somewhere dog-friendly to eat. We were welcomed in, and the food was excellent.

Really good hotel and the rooms in a separate house so quiet and nice. The rooms was big the bed nice the good pillows. The most things you need was in the room the hairdryer there not good and we had wanted shampoo. But the breakfast and dinner was lovely the host and staff so helpful and friendly. We will be back. The outside area and bar so lovely.

We came in for lunch as this menu suited us better than the dinner menu. Fairly quiet for a mid-week lunchtime which didn’t do much for the atmosphere but bar service was excellent and the meals we ordered were all exactly as advertised and very tasty. Also reasonably priced for a pub menu these days. Intended to return for steak night but unfortunately missed out. Recommended.

Called in today for lunch as we were passing and discovered a gem. A lovely rustic country pub with a welcoming and friendly land lord. The food was excellent, freshly made and good value for money. We will definitely visit again.

Met up with a group of friends for lunch last week. The food was exceptionally good with friendly and efficient service. One of our party was gluten free and had a really good choice of options. Would recommend.

Wonderful to see the inn revived and alive again. Great food, lovely atmosphere. Will be our eating place of choice. Well done the Burlton

Visited yesterday with a group of friends for lunch. We had a very pleasant experience and all thoroughly enjoyed our food. We all chose a variety of choices from the menu and all of our group described their lunch as delicious. I chose the rib eye steak which was extremely tasty and tender.

Visited for a reunion with a group of friends for lunch. We had different meal choices and everyone thought the food was delicious. I chose the rib eye steak which was exceptional! It was so tender! The lady who served us was extremely pleasant, and it was a superb venue for a really enjoyable lunch.

Have eaten here several times in the evening and always warm and a good atmosphere, however lunch today it was very cold and uninviting like eating in a barn

We went to the Burlton today for lunch, we were looked after extremely well, by the lovely young waitress, nothing was too much trouble.The four of us all had different main courses but they all came out at the same time and perfectly presented. Ennio came out and personally greeted us which was very nice touch. It was such a shame that there was only the four of us dining, I know January is a difficult month, but please put the Burlton on your list for a visit soon, don't let us lose another pub.

Welcoming and cosy pub. Lovely fresh decor. Friendly, fun and attentive staff. Service was great, food excellent. Little gem. Only live close by and will definitely be back. Thank you.

We so enjoyed the fabulous Christmas lunch here recently. On arrival we were shown to our table and welcomed with prosecco and canapes. A delicious start to our meal. Everything following was beautifully presented and equally tasty! Ennio certainly worked his magic in the kitchen!!

Really welcoming pub/hotel. Room v clean Good beer Excellent food If you like a country pub, this place is definitely worth a visit!!

Lovely warm and welcoming pub complete with fire burning in the wood burner. Delicious lunch courtesy of Ennio the Italian chef….prawn linguine followed by pannacotta ….perfect! Just a pity he didn’t make the coffee too!

The last time we visited the Burlton, it was very lack luster, but what a change we saw when visiting today. There was a real buzz about the place, so lovely to see. Attentive staff was half of the change, but being fed by Ennio, was I think, what made it for me.Nice to see him up and running again.

Fantastic. We have previously used the Burlton Inn as a base for family occasions. The overall hospitality of Justin and Debbie is amazing, quality of food and drink is also great. The attention to detail for supporting guests staying and ensuring that all needs are met. The rooms although a little basic are comfortable and have everything you need to enable a happy stay and a good nights sleep! Overall a great stay for a 2nd time and definitely will be back. Thank you!

Well you all know me !! I love to visit places anywhere I can and this evening I visited the absolutely lovely Burlton Inn in the small hamlet of Burlton Shropshire. A wonderful old world pub with rooms and a fantastic company of friendly staff, staff that Rick Stein would have together outside for a photograph..... so we ordered our meals I had Cod and chips TOP NOTCH food.. can't say anymore.. delicious from chip to mushy peas to cod.....

Oh dear - very disappointing experience. I ordered hummus and was told it wasn't available but I could have mayonnaise instead. Whilst I believe this was meant as a helpful suggestion it was an indication of the level of culinary knowledge. The soup was thin,...

Called in for a sunday dinner, had a starter and a main each, glad we went for a starter because the portions wernt very big, both enjoyed our meal just wished there was more veg and maybe not so tight on the mint sauce please,...

Really lovely friendly family Inn. Stayed one night Room very clean and welcoming and beds very comfortable and clean. Would recommend this Inn to stay in.

We stayed here for a night for a wedding locally and had a lovely stay. They were very friendly and accommodating especially as we needed a slightly earlier check in. The rooms were clean and spacious and had everything you needed for a night stay....

Where do I start… the clue should have been the pub only had two other people in there! 3 of the 4 of us are vegetarian the menu choice for a vegetarian was vegetable lasagne. Very poor! The beef was as tender as the sole...

Nice rooms at competitive prices and good food too. Debbie cooked for guests on Bank Holiday evening which was very flexible as little else available locally. Would recommend to others. One small suggestion add some fresh or frozen fruit to have with breakfast. Thanks from...

Highly recommended for a Sunday lunch. Great quality food and good choice of drinks. Very friendly staff and dog friendly too. Outside area perfect for enjoying the sun.

Absolutely beautiful, the meals were sensational , we had the special on the board and it certainly didn’t disappoint, highly recommended a meal here

Stopped 26/6/22 , lovely room , lovely pub ,staff very helpful / friendly,lunch was really nice and breakfast was exceptional for the price ,£50 double roo m with breakfast ,, definitely stay there again

Came for Sunday lunch lovely good home cooked food, friendly staff, plenty of veg as a extra, very enjoyable, nice place, didnt have to wait long for anything left very pleased

Enjoyed a delicious meal at this traditional pub. Good menu with something for everyone. Can recommend the homemade pie. Dog friendly in bar area.

Beautifully appointed dining room. Excellent meal, friendly staff. Went twice during our week. The steak pie was superb, the meat fell apart.

What a beautiful pub. The decor is immaculate. The landlord, Alan is a gem and so are the staff especially Becky so hospitable and welcoming. We only had a snack along with our drinks but the aroma of the Sunday roast was very tempting. We'll...

Went for Sunday lunch with the missus and it was excellent. The food was plentiful and tasty, service was excellent ,with a smile and the beer was outstanding. Will be returning very soon , well done.

Visited here with family, very warm welcome, great food and we weren't rushed at any point was a very relaxed evening

My wife and I enjoyed an early evening meal at the Burlton Inn. Staying locally, we walked however the car park is a decent size. Good beer and two nice meals, Chicken wrapped in Bacon and their homemade Burger. Good service and good price; would definitely recommend.

Visited for an 80th birthday celebration. Lovely little pub with good service and good food and a selection so varied it was hard to choose - only complaint heard at the table was that it was a pity there wasn't more! Very modern decor although the chairs weren't ideal for the shorter members of the party. I was very much looking forward to the rice pudding but there was an hour's wait and I don't have quite that amount of leisure time, but I'm glad to know it's freshly made. If you don't mind facing off with a dead deer whilst you eat, I highly recommend. No Wi-Fi and no phone signal so the family are forced to interact!Looking forward to returning!

Just spent two evenings here. Each night 4 different meals arrived piping hot. Food great but what made our visit enjoyable was the friendly staff. Nothing was too much trouble. If we are in the area again we wouldn't hesitate calling in for food and drinks.

Fantastic food with a large canopy for outdoor dining or pods. Food was wonderful not a complaint from any of the 9 dining good covid measures with reminders to keep our tables apart. Great local fund whilst staying at Burlton cottages

Excellent great yummy meals all round. Plenty of choice. All the staff and landlord fab and so friendly. Accommodation was exceptionally clean and the whole place was so welcoming. Highly recommended. Thank you so much.

Visited here tonight with my Mum. We both had excellent meals, Mum had fish and chips (huge portion and beautifully cooked), I had the home-made steak pie which was one of the best I've ever tasted. Finished off the meal with the gorgeous honeycomb torte. Everything was faultless, cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious. Also, we felt very safe with the Covid safety measures they have implemented.All the staff were super efficient and friendly, especially the owner, he found time to have a chat and a laugh with us despite being busy. We highly recommend Burlton Inn and we will be back soon.Thank you.

We called in for a meal and a few drinks and were happy with the fab meal and drinks and the jovial landlord .

Burlton Inn is situated on the outskirts of Shrewsbury. We went for Sunday lunch. Service by friendly staff. Very well organised for social distancing with covid19. The lunch was very good, choice of pork, turkey, beef or lamb. Fresh vegetables and plenty of everything. You could order from main menu. Moving onto desserts.... FABULOUS varied selection. I had pavlova full of delicious fresh fruit, highly recommended. You can sit outside if you prefer.

Just had the most fantastic food imaginable - the lamb was to die for. Everything about this pub was great. Staff were brilliant very friendly, helpful and professional. On top of that I felt totally safe in respect of the Covid situation. The pubs very clean and social distancing highly organised. What else can I say apart from well done and everyone go visit.

First choice on menu, not available Second choice,Steak & Kidney pie, meat burnt and served on cold plate, meal refused. Final choice, Fish and Chips, not available. Gave up!

We stayed in a four poster room and also dined at the Inn. The welcome and service we received throughout our stay was second to none. The 3 course evening meal and breakfast, with toast served in a little rack reminiscent of our childhood, were delicious with a large choice available, all served by friendly and helpful owners and staff.

Called in here on the off chance they serve food all day as so many don't and yes! In luck. Opted for a Sunday lunch which was fab and saw other scrumptious sounding dishes I can't wait to go back and try

Used this as a local while renting in the area while having our home renovated. Enjoyed every day we came in. The owner is a great host. Good food, service and beautifully decorated. Rooms are adequate for the cost. Clean throughout and cosy. Gorgeous breakfast.

Beautiful food. Lovely staff. Great menu with loads of choices. Great place to get a later Sunday afternoon roast dinner. Really beautiful modern decor inside. Just all round great food and experience.

We hadn’t booked on a Saturday night but they made room for us and were extremely hospitable and friendly even though they were busy. The food was amazing; I had bangers and mash which was delicious and my partner had ale pie which was succulent and tasty. Charming landlords and staff.

Busy pub restaurant with great food and varied menu at realistic prices. Prompt and friendly service and reasonable selection of beers.

My husband and I were there this evening to celebrate my birthday. We were the only guest at the time but by the time we left it was getting quite busy. We were really impressed by the decor and lovely relaxing atmosphere. We ordered a drink and were shown to our table by the young lady and proceeded to select two starters and 2 mains. The starters arrived punctually and were really good; mine being chicken skewers and salad and my husband ordered prawn cocktail. Then the mains arrived. My husband had ordered the cheese and onion pie with fries and veg and I ordered the Brie and goat cheese tart with tomatoes and red onions. The cheese and onion pie was just awful. Advertised as 4 cheeses it was mainly mashed potatoes with hardly any onion and some cheese but the over riding flavour was potato. My tart was burned around the edges and on the bottom and I ate the centre only. I was saddened as the place itself is lovely inside and the young lady who served us was very friendly and efficient. We did mention to her of the problems concerning my husband's meal but didnt mention mine as I figured she had enough to deal with as the place was getting busier by then. We paid the bill and left.I hate doing reviews like this and usually either write a good report or if a place isnt great I say nothing. So by my writing this it speaks volumes as to how we felt. I really hope it was an off day hey, we all have them but it is a case of buyer beware. I wish them well and hope that it was just a one off. The place really is a joy for the eyes just not a feast for the palate.

We ate here while staying at the pub. The food was excellent, great value and the service was really good too. Loved it!

Second visit in 8 days, same warm friendly welcome and once again all four meals were 1st class. My seafood tagliatelle looked gorgeous and that is how it turned out to be, quite simply the best seafood tagliatelle I have ever tasted.Service was again professional, efficient and friendly and there was nothing that could be faulted.Excellent decor and furnishings, excellent service, excellent food, who could want for more?

Me, Mum & Brother called here one Friday afternoon on the off chance.My first time here, lovely place, nice interior.We didn’t fancy anything heavy to eat. Me and my brother had the chicken stir fry and mum had the beef one, we also had chips and garlic bread to share.The stir fry was so good, vegetables in there were crunchy (which I love) and everything was the right portion.We all had dessert to, I had the waffle, this was the only down fall as the waffle was burnt, actually rock solid that a spoon couldn’t even get through it.That wouldn’t stop me from visiting here again as the food was lovely.

Having been let down by another local pub, we booked last minute for Sunday lunch. Friendly staff . Simple home cooked Sunday lunch, nothing fancy but good & tasty. Just what we needed.

Visited last night with friends and family

On the way to Wales and stopped off at this lovely pub for a spot of lunch. A variety of hot and cold sandwiches and hot meals on offer, including a specials board. Lovely and cosy inside with a lovely sunny seating area outside. You can even stay the night in their accomadation too. Food was really tasty, would definitely recommend a visit.

The restaruant serves great food in wonderful surroundings. The staff always offer a warm welcome. Would heartily recommend.

Visited at lunchtime for a friend's birthday. Friendly welcome, happy smiley staff, lovely menu at a reasonable price. Thoroughly enjoyed all our meals across three courses and will definitely visit again

Visited several times, staff are always friendly and attentive. Nice location and always serving freshly prepared, good quality pub grub.

Really friendly staff and well cooked pub food in a lovely country pub. Only downside drinks on the expensive side. Overall very good.

Staying a few days. Very spacious room clean ,

We have eaten here several times and had an enjoyable time each visit. Well priced solid English cooking in a modern well maintained dining room.

Having found this pub we have now visited 9 times and stayed over once. The food is of good portions always fresh, besides menu there is always a specials board. Always start with the black pudding stack , then on to mains and only once managed a dessert. Accommodation very comfortable and well priced

We visited The Burlton Inn a couple of months ago and had a lovely meal. Thought we would go there again with family as part of a celebration for a Golden Wedding Anniversary, there were eight in our party. We arrived just before 7pm as per our booking and we were served drinks and shown to our table. It was 8pm before our order was even taken, people that came in after us were served first and had their food before anyone took our order. The food was ok but nothing special, two people had the Burlton Burger and reported that the meat was tough and took it home to give to the dog! Previously the man who I believe to be the manager served us and was very pleasant and thoughtful and couldn’t do enough to help but on this occasion he wasn’t there and the staff did nothing to make the occasion feel in any way special.

An excellent find. We stopped here on the pure off chance that they were still serving food after an awful experience down the road, please see my previous review. We were fortunate to get a table and the food was amazing. My friend is lactose intolerant and this was not an issue. Food was delicious and the rice pudding and warm jam was out of this world. As we had lunch late I didn't feel like cooking a sunday roast back home when it was time to leave so I asked if they did food to take away as my son (18) would miss out on his sunday roast. This was something that they didn't usually do but their no problem Im sure we can do something attitude was a welcome relief. Plus my son was happy and impressed with his roast.

Drove out to have lunch on the Tuesday and learned they are not doing lunches on Monday and Tuesday as of now. Disappointing, went elsewhere. Returned today and thought we'd be in with a good lunchtime crowd having fun but I think there was just one other table of customers having a meal. They've changed the menu which was bound to happen I suppose after a few years but the favorite steak sandwich was no longer! Prices have gone up and that is somewhat of a given also. They do table service now but it still takes a bit of time to get the food to your table, The jovial landlord was in but wasn't spreading his personality around the inn so with that it was a bit lacking. The peppered beef sandwich is ok but you think they could put a few chips on the side...on the other hand the Scampi in a Basket has enough chips for 3 people! We've been and we don't really feel the need to return--a shame really.

5 of us visited for mum's birthday. Shown to seats by jovial owner into Mrs Pugh's Parlour.

Honestly dont bother. Food was not good at all. Tasted of black pepper so much that you could taste nothing else.

We enjoyed a lovely meal but waited 45 minutes for it to arrive despite being the only customers at 5pm on a Thursday. The setting is lovely and food good but not really child friendly with no children’s menus, although they did give the children beans and chips and pizza and chips which we think were Chicago pizza.

Eaten here twice recently with family and then friends. Out of the 12 meals we had, there was not one complaint. Each dish was was well presented, tasty and home cooked. Desserts were delicious. Service was also excellent, with friendly and efficient staff. A complimentary liqueur was served between courses on our last visit. At the end of the evening, the chef/owner came out to ask if we had enjoyed our meals. This is the type of service that is sadly lacking in most establishments today, but was very much appreciated. Although the Burlton Inn is a 20 minute drive for us, it is certainly one we will visit again.

We really enjoy our Sunday lunches at this welcoming local. Good food without pretension. Relaxing environment offers everything we look for.

Table booked for 19.45. Meal served at 20.30 after reminder. Liver proved inedible Restaurant waived all charges

We visited the Burlton Inn whilst on holiday in Ellesmere. So glad we did as we couldn’t fault it - fantastic food (we had steak & ale pie and tikka masala) and the staff were very welcoming and attentive.

Fantastic high quality food great value. Staff are friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is comforting relaxing and enjoyable. Thank you to bar staff and chefs 😁 6*+

Sorry guys , with so many quality local pubs in the area you need to raise your game . Sunday roast : poor quality meat , mash potatoes? Meat & Veg plated on a tiny plate . A very fishy smelling sea base salad which just didn’t work . Maybe acceptable standards 10/15 years ago but not today .

We enjoyed our Sunday dinner, it was tasty and a fair sized portion.

Me & my husband staýed at Burlton inn in Shrewsbury we stayed over night in four poster bed lovely room home from home home cooked food staff very friendly & help full we be back to stay a gen in the country very relaxed place 10 out 10 Mr & excllent breakfast Mr & Mrs rowson 31st 2018

We had not been to The Burlton for a number of years. So decided to try it again. We enjoyed a very good meal, from the extensive menu.

We are regular customers at the Burlton Inn although it is not our local, the staff are great, friendly and meals are always brilliant. We have taken family and friends when they visit, it is always their first choice too. Love the rustic style decor and little quirks around the pub.

Was going to try trotting mare inn but we were a tad late as they stopped serving at 5 so found this place from the info file in our log cabin. And glad we did. Modern decor with traditional features of an old English country pub. Very welcoming, real ale on offer and serving up to 7pm on a Sunday night. Opted for roast beef dinner, at £10.95 reasonable price with generous portions.

Back in town and met up with our 4 friends for a lovely, relaxed luncheon and where else would we feel like home except the Burlton Inn. As you walk in the door and to the right is Mrs. Pugh's Room and that is where we were situated and it was perfect. Relaxed and comfortable and eventually we remembered FOOD! Two orders of Fish & Chips, two of Steak Sandwich, Bangers & Mash and Shrimp & Risotto. Another round of drinks and the food arrives smelling divine. We all practically licked our plates clean at the end everything was so good! This is a beautiful country pub and folk should definitely dine there whenever they can. We enjoyed ourselves immensely!

Recently ate at the Burlton Inn for the first time and was really impressed with the décor and ambience of the pub/restaurant, all very tasteful. A really pleasant environment with nice friendly staff and a relaxed feel. The food was simple but well cooked, presented and served, at a sensible price, all good. However we stayed over in one of the annex rooms and in comparison to the pub it was a little disappointing. Whilst it was adequate, clean and simple, having seen the pub we expected more. It was perfectly acceptable for the odd night but not a "destination". The beds were a bit hard, however the cleanliness was excellent, so no complaints there. All in all a nice place to eat and drink, worth a visit.

I visited for a meal with friends on a midweek evening & had a great time. The menu is varied. Service is courteous, and unhurried, so we could have a good chat. Food is well presented & good quality. Decor is lovely. Well worth a visit.

After having a very poor experience around 3 years ago, and seeing that reviews had picked up, decided to book...

We stayed for two nights at this excellent venue and made it our base for attending Bangor on Dee races which is 20 minutes up the road.

Decidimos ir a conducir un poco misterio, y encontramos este precioso pueblo, así que decidimos probar el pub para cenar. Nos dieron una cálida bienvenida desde el propietario y el barman y el interior estaba bien y muy cómodo. Había un estupendo menú para elegir, así como los asados del domingo y una emocionante sonar ofertas especiales. Tuve la parrilla de pescado, que era magnífico. La otra mitad tenía la parrilla de carne, que había un montón de carne bien cocinada y todos los detalles. Lo único que me decepcionó fue la patatas fritas - típico pub pequeños. Casero hubiera sido mucho mejor. En general, sin duda volveremos la próxima vez que estemos en la zona.

Me llevaron la primera vez por mi novio creo que fue hace unos 3 años, por desgracia no recuerdo ahora qué comimos en esa visita, pero el viaje más reciente ha perdurado muy firmemente en mi memoria. Vive ahora en Australia, volvimos a Shrewsbury para la Navidad del año pasado, y paré en el Burlton Inn para almorzar antes de encontrarse con algunos amigos. El pub es encantador y acogedor ambiente con un adecuado campo de la decoración, en particular la chimenea, que paquete en frente de nosotros mismos en esta cálida de congelación de la tarde fría de invierno.

Very disappointing overall. Had to chase to place order, get tables cleared and for her to get her pad to order 3 desserts!. There was only one woman serving who didn't really seem up to the job. The Brie starter was nice if you like a huge pile of salad and very little brie - over expensive too! Had to ask twice for extra mash and the slow cooked lamb shanks were disappointing. I asked for a sticky toffee pudding with custard and was served a large piece of dry looking cake with fruit in it. Im not sure toffee had been anywhere near this cake. I did not order a fruit cake and it did not state fruit on the menu, so I raised this with woman serving who proceeded to announce loudly quite a few times that all sticky toffee puddings have dates in them - hmmmm! She took it away and then came back and said it would be taken off the bill. Did she think there was any alternative after what I had just put up with?!Won't go back until they change staff and are more clear with the menu (shame as I have been here before and enjoyed it)

Went four times during our stay on holiday and the food was excellent, lamb shank and the fish and chips in particular. Staff very helpful and friendly. Always busy so would book for food.

Enjoyed a delicious dinner, excellent food, good choice and substantial portions. Friendly staff and pleasant ambience.

visited here and few times and have always been made to feel very welcome. The food is of a good standard.

The pub has been recently refurbished but manages to retain a welcoming "pubby" atmosphere; busy with locals as well as visitors. The staff are very friendly and, unlike many pubs, you can just drop in for a drink without having a menu thrust at you. Having said that, the food is so good we visited twice. The first time we both had the sirloin steak with all the trimmings - excellent flavour and cooked just as we wanted.The second visit we had the baked salmon fillet from the menu and the red snapper (served with rice and sweet & sour sauce - sounds strange, but it worked) from the Special's board. We finished of with the cheese board shared between us.All our meals were good, and quite good value. The wine went down a treat as well.

We visited here for lunch on Friday 21st April 2017. We were greeted very warmly by the landlord. The pub is very smart with bright modern décor which complimented the building. The Unicorn, for my partner, was on form. I chose gin and tonic and was introduced to something different. Gin from a distillery in Belgium and it did not disappoint. Very pleasing to the palate. We ordered home made fish fingers on ciabatta for lunch with a side salad and chips. Freshly made and delicious.Bev, the manageress, who was very professional and polite, showed us around the accommodation which was across the car park and away from the main road. All rooms were clean and fresh looking with very modern and bright rooms and comparatively large bathrooms. Dogs are welcome too.Very impressed and would recommend .

We were a party of eight, a family outing for a birthday celebration. The greeting from the woman behind the bar was very friendly and drinks were ordered and served. We sat down and looked at the menu which seemed reasonable. Twenty minutes later our order had still not been taken, I asked and was told there was a backlog in the kitchen. Perhaps the coach party had left just before we got there! Nearly an hour later we finally got some food! Starters were okay, so we looked forward to mains, but were very disappointed. I don't think that there was a single home-cooked piece of food there. I would have complained there and then, but having waited so long, by then I just wanted to go home. We had intended to have puddings but couldn't contemplate waiting any longer. There was a sole waitress who really wasn't up to the job and seemed completely incapable of remembering who had ordered what. It has been many years since our last visit to this pub, and I can assure it will be many more years before we visit again.

We have eaten at the Burlton a number of times over the last month, the food is well cooked and served, the choice is great my only negative is the lack of a good bitter beer, being a pub owned by a brewery limits the choice

From the outside you could be forgiven for passing by, but go inside and you will soon see why you should stop.The atmosphere is good, interior is well laid out and inviting, and the food is very good. The landlord and his team are very welcoming.

Attended this evening for a birthday meal in a party of 8. We were greeted and offered drinks at the bar initially and shown to our table. Then had to wait over 30 mins before orders were taken. Upon asking one waitress around 20 mins in we were told there was a "build up in the kitchen" (There was around a dozen other people in there maximum and most only drinking, so god knows how this occurred).Onto the food; well when it does arrive, and is served in a dreadful manner by the worst waiting staff I've ever seen, not rude just dull and frankly useless. It left a lot to be desired. Clearly not all fresh at all, and nothing that even the worst of cooks couldn't manage at home. I personally ordered the 8oz "prime" burger as it states on the menu. It arrived and looked okayish until closer inspection. The shrivelled charred piece of meat could have, even before being ruined, been at most 6oz and I'd say more like 4oz if I'm honest and it certainly shouldn't have been described as "prime"... not only this but there was a huge chunk of cheese in there as if someone was grating it and a chunk fell off and they just left it in there. Talking around the size of a golf ball. I had to laugh to be honest. The other members of the party were all relatively unimpressed with theirs too. Steaks over cooked, fish clearly not fresh. It's not expensive I suppose but still nothing like good value... Given the majority of good reviews I expected a lot more. I certainly won't be returning.

We arrived late early evening to a reasonably busy pub. We are not from this area and had passed this pub several times on our travels and thought we would give it a try. We were welcomed by a real gent (I assume the GM/landlord). We asked if we could have a table for 12, he didn't seem at all phased with the request, despite it being very busy.He came back after having a look and said he wouldn't be beaten and would never let anyone down! They made a real effort to juggle tables round and joked his second job was working for "Pickfords".The menu is good and reasonably priced. The food itself was lovely and of a very good standard. Some may say the portions were not overly big but we all agreed the qaulity was "as good as your Gran's".The small team including the GM were busy but happy at all times. There was another older gent serving alongside the GM and he was polite, courteous and professional.The one thing that really stood out from other pubs we visited in the area was his general persona and personality. He obviously loves his job and is proud of the smart decor and interior of his establishment. He even came back to compliment us on how our children behaved, stating "In all his years of working, he had never seen such well behaved children". We all left with full bellies, smiling faces and a pleasant feel to the end of our holiday and this is because of the Burlton Inn and the man in charge!If only we had a place that was like this near where we lived!Give the place a go guys, you won't be disapointed and a pat on the back to Robinsons for employing such a committed team and Manager.

First time we have visited the food was fantastic and the staff very help full nothing was to much trouble we will be going back again and will recommend it to all our family and friends

We visited as a family of three for Sunday lunch. The overall impression is gastro pub , warm cozy nicely decorated. Good size menu, not too big but something for everyone. The men in the party had the roast which was a combination of pork , lamb or beef . The Yorkshire pudding was home made and beautifully light and fluffy, the veg was perfectly cooked. For desserts we had a rice pudding, a sticky toffee pudding and a cheese board. All well presented and home made. Good hearty pub food done with style.
