I went Sunday lunchtime and had a hot beef cob with roasties and gravy and it was lovely.😊 Nice to see a pub busy and I can understand why. Made to feel welcome and the Pedegree was fab. Give it a go.

I am a member of a small group of retired friends who walk most wednesdays. The Cuckoo Bush has been a Pub we have used for lunch many times over the years. We had to stop walking during lockdown and found on one occasion, that the Pub was shut. It was only recently we heard it had reopened, and we lunched there after walking today. As it turns out it was Jo who served us and we were impressed at her friendliness. We had a snack lunch, and were impressed to find that Gluten free bread and rolls were available for my friend, who is a Cealiac. We had a very nice lunch, the beer was good, and the Pub is now back on our list of lunchtime walking Pubs. Well done.

A nice friendly local pub. Disappointed on our third visit that the Thursday quiz night was abandoned because of lack of support. It's probably a sign of the times, where folk are staying in, I hope not. Nice piping hot, well presented food .

What a great night! We took our family for pie night. We’d heard how good the specials nights are and thought we’d give it a go. We were not disappointed. We had delicious home cooked, fresh food, excellent service and the warmest of welcome. Top tip! Leave room for dessert… Jo’s rhubarb crumble is amazing! Crispy crumble topping just as it should be. A perfect bake 😋 I could eat that again tomorrow given half the chance! From the minute we arrived nothing was too much trouble. The pub is great. A good selection of beers, dogs are welcomed in all except the dining area during service. There’s a lovely garden area for the summer evenings. It was a really hot night, 25 degrees but the team didn’t let that slow them down. It doesn’t stop there, throughout the week there is always something happening. Specials nights, coffee mornings and quiz night just to name a few. I’d highly recommend the Cuckoo Bush. If you’re in the area, pop in, you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Jo & Richard, we will definitely be back for another specials night.

Not at all impressed. Went for Sunday Dinner - only one piece of meat and a small portion. Couple asked for child’s portion and got exactly the same as us. No mustard, there is better value for money elsewhere eg the Plough at Normanton. The Sun over the road although not great does a great Sunday dinner for less.

The Cuckoo Bush Inn is very impressive! as soon as I walked in I could smell how hard the staff worked, it was like a salty sauna in there, brilliant!

Me and my wife were travelling through and spotted this pub so we pulled in. The young barmaid was very polite and told is she would come to take our order at a table. My wife sat down and I went to the toilet. On returning to the bar the poor girl couldn’t pour a shandy and the head of the pint was almost half a pint so i told her to slighty tilt the glass. My wife asked for a non alcoholic lager but they had none then asked for a fresh orange juice with lemonade again they had no fresh orange juice. So my wife sat at the table with no drink until i drank my shandy and we left. We felt for the young barmaid as this was not her fault

We visited the Cuckoo Bush on 31st of July with friends to celebrate my brother’s life who sadly passed away on Christmas Eve. All I can say is the so called landlady who was quite happy taking £35 to £40 rounds all day was so so rude & unprofessional at the end of the night. Firstly the idea of putting a fleece blanket around me that you don’t know who else has used disgusts me, especially with so many people having Covid, however my Neice did. The landlady walked over ripped it from around her saying buy ya F——-g own £6.50 from Amazon because she actually really thought she was going to pinch it. Another village pub ruined by a young lady, I use that term loosely who hasn’t got a clue. Maybe daddy should of used some of the money getting her two pubs in the village on charm school.

Such an improvement since Laura and Ben have taken over. The pub is alive again. Quite a few people were eating last night including our group of nine. All the meals came out together and all were very good. Only slight downside was the the portion sizes were a bit on the small size for the men but perfect for us women. Would definitely recommend trying the food all of which was excellent value for money.

Fuimos a comer algo rápido y llegamos a las 6:15, pedimos dos comidas de tiras de pollo a un precio de 7. 45 cada uno. Nos dijeron en el bar el gerente que acababa de salir de la cocina "habrá una espera de 30 minutos, ya que acababan de tener un grupo de 9 personas. Me pareció un poco extraño que no pudieran hacer frente a los 9". Pedidos más nuestros dos, pero dijimos que esperaríamos. Después de 1 hora, uno de los locales que sabe que el personal tenía que ir a la cocina para averiguar dónde estaba nuestra comida. No era su lugar, pero se disculpó por el retraso. Cuando llegó fueron 3 pequeñas tiras de pollo, del tipo que comprarías en un paquete de 15 piezas de Asda para 3. 99, batatas fritas, 3 aros de cebolla que ni siquiera estaban crujientes y un poco de ensalada y ensalada de col picada. No hubo ninguna disculpa por llegar tarde y tuve que pedir condimentos. Ninguno de los dos sentimos que habíamos comido cuando nos fuimos. Asqueroso

Visité el Cuckoo Bush con mi familia y amigos cuando pasábamos por Gotham, el personal es muy amable y acogedor, permitieron que nuestros perros entraran, lo cual fue una ventaja, todos disfrutamos la comida que pedimos, comí canelones de espinaca y ricotta con bolas de masa y estaba delicioso. Definitivamente volveré de nuevo.

Una mención especial al excelente barman que se tomó el tiempo y el esfuerzo para hablar con todos sus clientes, lo hizo sentir muy bienvenido y valorado como cliente, encantador tío.El resto del menú se ve encantador con mucha variedad y ofertas especiales en el tablero.Llamaremos de nuevo.

Despite the obvious difficulties catering for such a large party (16 people) the afternoon went very well. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable with a good simple pub grub menu.

Nos presentamos 'on spec', a última hora de un domingo a mediodía, con la esperanza de conseguir una comida. Aunque bien reservado, nos encontramos con una mesa. Los almuerzos de los domingos son de 3 opciones, 2 opciones de tamaño; elegimos la comida estándar más grande. ¡Guauu! Buena comida de pub, mucha, atendida por un personal amable, incluso Wadworths 6 X fue excelente. La factura final fue sorprendentemente ligera, un gran final para una buena comida. El factor decisivo es: ¿volveríamos a comer aquí? ¡Oh sí, sin duda!

I was very impressed with this establishment the first few times I visited, the overall presentation and quality is fantastic. However the first two times were only for drinks. On the third time we decided to eat; unfotunately the food was really bad. The chips and burgers were both ice cold, the burger was served on a rock hard bun and was inedible. Really surprising... I mentioned this to others that had visited and they had the exact same experience. Something is not right. Maybe in time they will figure it out but at the moment I can not recommend, unless you go for drinks and eat elsewhere.
