I don't know why this place is so quiet. Tidy drink selection, nice outdoor seating, the building is beautiful (little TLC needed inside but nothing major) and the food is great! Always had good meals here. The fish I has last week was honestly one of the best I have had.

This place is in need of a revamp big time.There is mould everywhere the decorer is disgusting the toilets are disgusting We went to a 40th birthday party on a Sunday The food was poor and there were no serviettes so they gave us toilet roll instead The bar staff were slow and unhelpful. It's my view avoid this place

Wish I could right something positive, but it was a disaster. Met in hall by a bag of off cut wood. Bare cables hanging down from stairway, baby high chair halfway up with clothes hanging over. Seats were stained and marked. Carpet was torn by door out to decking, mould all over the bay window. Didn't stay for food, appetite totally gone, This was a Father's Day surprise. Well, it certainly was.

Went recently for a wedding. Had an excellent time. Decor for wedding was black and gold. Everything was set out beautifully. The food was excellent. Good size portions, piping hot, very tasty and well served. There was no waiting for courses and the waitresses were polite, helpful and gave good service. As for management and employees, nothing was too much trouble for them. Thank you to all for a wonderful day/evening.

Food was decent. Wait unacceptably long. 5 adult roast dinners. No starters. Choices beef, chicken, pork turkey. No menu and didn't pay bill so no idea of cost. Just had 2 starters and 4 mains reeled off. Same for sweet. 2 choices. Food was nice. Gutted that there was one roastie only. Nice gravy. Staff pleasant. Room not great. Awkward seating. Very close to table behind and seats did not fit under tables. Also, as mentioned previously, signs of wear and tear. Kitchen open and was a mess. But sure this was due to a busy service as they are 5 star hygiene rated. We would possibly go again if I knew the prices 🙄👍

A hidden venue up a small drive on a street of Edwardian housing. The food was good and the quantities large. A top quslity hearty meal. If you’re looking for small portion picky finesse, don’t bother. If you’re looking for super large fish and outstanding chips or chicken curry with half and half, you’ve got the right place. Friendly service and a very local clientele. The building itself needs a bit of TLC, but we would definitely return.

Poor and rude management that do not disclose that they will shut the music off at 11 even if the room is hired until 1. They will trim agreesice and defensive when you raise issues with unsatisfaction. Would not go back as it left a bad taste on what should be a very special event.

Rude and unwelcoming management. Will advertise room hire until 1 then turn off the electricity to music and disabled toilets at 11. Apparently the onus is on the bride/booker to ASK this? Cannot deal with understandably unhappy customers and get aggressive and defensive! I posted a review on Facebook and they decided to disable reviews and remove that function so now other prospective customers cannot see these issues. Complete lack of transparency and management are letting down a beautiful venue. I would not look to book this venue as it is clear that the manager will not take accountability for any issues that arise and won’t think twice about ruining someone’s wedding reception. ** Edited to add following the venue’s response. I am NOT the bride. I was a guest in attendance at a family wedding. I was also NOT drunk (do not drink) and was there with my three year old daughter. I did not speak to management directly but I witnessed the conversations and the upset than ensued following them. The venue have removed the option to review on Facebook instead of dealing with the complaints. The venue state the room hire is until 1 with no mention the final two hours are supposed to be enjoyed in total silence. The issue is not with licensing laws. It’s with transparency at the time of booking and how management deal with complaints both on the night and thereafter. Working in the hospitality industry takes good customer service, which is lacking from The Celtic Lodge Management team. The onus is NOT on the customer to query if the music license ends two hours before the room hire does. I think most people would assume this would either be mentioned by the venue at the time of booking or the license goes until the end of the room hire. It is not fair or reasonable to assume everyone is privy to hospitality rules and dupe customers. What wedding reception would start at 7 to end by 10:30?

Arranged wedding party here and was told closing is at 1am via phonecall. Just after 10 we were told music would need to stop soon due to their licensing, and that they usually ask people to book taxis by 11.45. They also said they usually stop serving at 11pm but will serve after this if people are "reasonable", but as we brought up their mistake we weren't "reasonable". Power was shut off to the room before 11, including the lights for the disabled bathroom. Customer service was awful and owner aggressive and swore at guests.

Attended a friend's wedding reception here recently. Despite telling the couple that the place was booked until 1 we were told at half 10 that they only had a licence until 11 and that the music would have to stop. Lo and behold come 11 they cut the power to everything, including the disabled toilets and staff got very aggressive with the guests

If I could give a zero review I would but sadly Google doesn't give that option. What happened to giving a good level of customer service, what happened to transparency and honesty. There was absolutely no need for the night to have been ruined but the owner was not upfront at the time of booking. We were told that the room was booked until 1am. Which was very well received, we would have stayed continued supporting a local business and the revenue would have been well received, I would have thought...... but no it was sprung on us the goalposts had been changed and music had to be stopped by 11 and everyone was expected to leave at 11.45 due to the licence, but if we were reasonable then she would let us stay and use the bar (with no music) till 1am. None of this would have been an issue if we were told in advance but when the night is still young to have that sprung in you is very unwelcome. So sadly we became unreasonable, I wonder why? Is it because that message wasn't what we were told when booking, but again that was or fault because apparently booked until 1am doesn't mean that and you should check check anyway. Anyway safe to say i along with probably 60 local people will give the place a miss going forward. Very rude owners with no regard for the bride.

Aggressive staff who turned off the power to venue at 11pm, including the disabled toilets which were in use, despite telling the customers that it was open until 1am. Upon telling staff this we were told to "prove it" as the booking was made via telephone. At this point we were told that they had a license until 11pm unless customers were "reasonable" at which point they would serve beyond this license. A very disappointing experience which spoilt what should have been a special occasion

Lipstick on the glass however was disappointing as it wasn't busy and wasn't noticed by staff. Sorry. But would return regardless as these things happen and we're only human.

Came on the recommendation of a friend and happily, I'm still talking to her. The food was abundant and majority well cooked. The top slice of my turkey had clearly been left under the hot light and the top part was flambéd. I removed about half an inch of it and to be fair the rest was perfect as the gravy had shielded it. The other slices and beef underneath was perfectly cooked, tender, and there was plenty of it. We had more veg than even my human dustbin children could ever have finished. It was well prepared also, and flavourful. We had mash, peas, cabbage, swede, and two jugs of gravy. Why only 4 stars then? Cleanliness and health risk. My wrapped cutlery was dirty with what looked like beef stock cube of all things. Our glasses were dirty, and not just smeared from the washer. There were bits of something all over them. Another table was making the same complaint and were told it was wear and tear. It's not, they were dirty, you can't get wear and tear off with a napkin....as I did. We didn't bother complaining given we could hear the denial to the other table, I just cleaned them myself. I also ordered full fat drinks, but we were served diet pepsi. The server replaced the offending drink without issue but my sweetener intolerant son had already drunk half. She claimed she thought we'd said diet pepsi. I'm not sure how you mishear 5 cokes as 5 diet pepsi but there we go. His learning disabilities means he can't tell us that isn't Coke and I didn't think to check. It was only on drinking mine I realised the mistake. This isn't a huge issue for us as it's only an intolerance not an allergy, however if you have allergies I'd double check your order here. Overall a good experience but someone really needs to check the filter in the dishwasher and reiterate the importance of getting orders correct.

Not the cleanest of places,food was average tbh. The ladies toilets could've done with a good clean & there was no toilet roll. The waitresses were run off their feet,could have done with more. Won't be going back sorry

I absolutely love this place, I've never had a bad meal here ever, in all the years I've been eating here. Staff are lush as always, food was amazing as always. The atmosphere is like being at home with your family eating.
