⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️After enjoying an evening meal two weeks ago, we could not wait to return to try the Sunday lunch. Again, we could not fault the service, food, or atmosphere. There was 14 of us when we enjoyed the evening meal, and 6 of us on Sunday. The food on both occasions was served warm, and the young man who served us was polite and friendly. Would not hesitate to recommend. See you soon!

Had high expectations, shocking service. Had a child bring my food to the table which was cold and he was creepy. When complained had some women come out clearly drunk abusing us! Will not return. Oh and she was flirting with my husband!

Booked a table for 2.30 for Sunday lunch, which we were very much looking forward to. At 4pm we still hadn't had our order. A staff member asked if everything was OK and we explained that our food hadn't arrived. The staff member walked off and didn't come back with any explanation. We ended up walking out not having any lunch. The service was awful and unfortunately we're unable to review the food. Will not be going back and would definitely recommend.

Had a really good meal at the Carpenters after playing golf . Service was good and the staff were really welcoming . I had the beef stroganov which was really tasty . Myfriend had teriyaki salmon that looked and tasted really good. Real ales were also quality as well as the dessert -we both had the honeycomb cheesecake . It's a really nice pub set in in an idyllic village.

Lovely food, friendly staff. I had beef stroganoff and it was delicious, as was the pie and burgers. My husband is not a lover of peas and carrots and they offered him different vegetables which is very unusual. It’s a lovely country pub. We will definitely return.

We stumbled upon this charming pub while driving to the lake and decided to check it out. What a delightful surprise! We were warmly welcomed by the friendly landlady, who suggested we enjoy our meal in the tranquil garden. The garden was absolutely stunning and provided a serene atmosphere. We opted for the two meals for £20 deal and both chose the fish and chips, which were cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious! The service was excellent, the prices were very reasonable, and the staff couldn't have been more welcoming. The pub itself, along with the lovely beer garden, added to the overall experience. With plenty of events planned in the coming months, we can’t wait to return. If you’re in the area, don’t miss the chance to stop by—it's definitely worth the trip!

Decided to try this pub for the first time in a while after seeing their menu advertised and recently heard it is under new ownership. The lady at the bar was lovely and the drinks were too! We all had different meals and everyone commented on how much they had enjoyed it, especially the curry! The service was great too! We definitely won’t be leaving it as long as before to visit again ☺️

The postcode is slightly off but gets you pretty close. We found it without any trouble. Great food, Friendly landlady. Wonderful hanging baskets and pub garden. I could have stayed here all day. Discovered what going 50:50 means in Wales. (half a portion of rice and half a portion of chips). The chips were the best I had on our trip. I had the chicken curry. My friends had the burger option.

So glad to see it is open again, and even more glad after trying their freshly cooked tasty menu and meeting their welcoming and extremely friendly and helpful new owners. Great gluten free and veggie options, and for fussy eaters like me, willing to amend and change to suit.

Birthday meal (sunday lunch). Food was average, a little expensive for the quality. Would describe as 'luke warm'. Meat was clearly a cheap cut that had been cooked for hours. Tasted okay. Veg was average. Cauliflower cheese was extra and noy worth it for the portion size. Service poor...unatentive and generally ignorant. Requests for rake away carton ignored several times. Eventually food was removed from table and returned all mashed up in tin foil! Would not be somewhere I'd return.

Popped in for lunch one evening with my dad. Many pubs these days seem to be chain pubs - pre cooked warm it up in a microwave type food, and we chose the Carpenters for the exact reason that it isn’t one of these pubs. Proper home cooked good food with good portions and tasty is what we got. Inside is lovely, cozy and homely with nice decor, music playing and a warm welcome from (I assume) the owner behind the bar who also served our food and had a chat with us to explain the dishes. If your after honest home made quality tasty food and a friendly place to eat it, then you can’t go wrong with this pub.

We hadn't booked, just arrived on the off chance of getting a table. The owner was behind the bar and spoke to the Chef who said about half an hour wait. There were 3 large parties already sitting down. Not a problem. We ordered drinks, was given menus and placed our order before we went to our table, which was just under the half hour. Food and service was excellent, the owner, who was serving tables made time to chat to us. It was a pleasure to have someone make the effort to try and fit us in. Thank you, and we shall return soon.

Nelson & Neil are just the nicest landlords I've ever met. From the minute you walk in they make you feel right at home and like you've known each other for years. And not just me, they were the same to everyone. No matter how busy they were. Beautiful little nook, gorgeously done up, so clean, tidy & fresh.

Popped in for a drink and meal on a whim on a sunny evening, and it was just absolutely lovely. First things we noticed were the lovely outside courtyard area, the selection of some unique beers (Murano and Portuguese), and the welcoming gent who greeted us. He was running the place by himself this evening and was doing a fantastic job. I have to mention the cocktail menu because there must be 20 cocktails available, which is so unusual for a pub, and really nice to have in the local area. Prices from £7-£10 so reasonable too. They were running on a limited menu due to a chef being off work, but still plenty of choice and our food was beautiful. One of the best curries I’ve had in a pub! All in all, a really nice evening and we’ll definitely be back. Thank you!

Popped in today with friends for dinner, as we hadn't been here for years. Welcomed by a lovely lady who was on the bar, she explained that there would be a possible 30-min wait for food due to a large table arriving, and being short staffed: absolutely no a problem, if anything we appreciated the forewarning. We ordered drinks, browsed the menu and took a seat, orders were taken and food arrived promptly. We cannot complain about the service, only downside was the portions were too big, so we had no room for a dessert each!! Haha. We did end up sharing a cheesecake though, which was equally as good as our starter & main! Little did we know that this has just been taken over, but wonderful to see the quality and welcome hadn't been lost!

Visited early and although it was booked up, the owner kindly booked us in with a 45 minute eating window. We ordered fish and chips and honestly wished we hadn't. The fish batter was greasy and both batter and chips were soggy. The peas were lovely as was the lady that served us. Perhaps they were rushed, or it was that as they had only just opened for the evening, the oil wasn't warm enough. Who knows but it has a good local reputation so hopefully it's a fluke. We are returning at New Year so we will see.

First, the location is beautifully picturesque, tucked just enough away whilst remaining central to larger areas. The owners are wonderful and welcoming and have created a warm and inviting venue. The decor is beautifully done, combining the original atchitecture with a modern twist, resulting in a luxury feel. The food was delicious and arrived very promptly. A wonderful selection of classic dishes with a great vegan/vegetarian menu available and the presentation was top quality. The WC facilities were above par, being beautifully decorated, clean and smelling divine. They imply the 'ask for angela' operative which is wonderful to see. They have a large function room, that is available to hire, which is decorated lovely and has a dance floor area. Perfect for weddings. Altogether a great, easy going and welcoming country pub that caters for all. Worth the travel and will definitely be visiting many more times!

Highly recommend. We had our 25th Anniversary meal here and everything was perfect. The food was lovely and the guests with special dietary needs were well catered for. Excellent service and some lovely touches added. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and making the night special.
