Booked a table online for Sunday lunch which was easy to do. The staff were welcoming and seated us straight away and left us to look through the menu, which has a decent amount to offer. We all decided on the Sunday roast and it did not disappoint, very well presented and everything was well cooked and was really good quality, even our 9 year old who doesn't normally finish a roast ate the lot. We would have tried a pudding but were too full. Definitely worth a try!

Further to my friend’s review (Keeley C) the four of us were invited back for a meal on Saturday evening. It was such a different experience to our visit a few weeks ago. We had a lovely table in the dining area where there was a nice atmosphere. The food was delicious, well cooked and well presented. We were well looked after by Anna who was very knowledgeable, friendly and went above and beyond. Thanks so much to Danni and your team. We could not fault anything and will definitely be back.

Excellent food and Wainwright’s best bitter, great dinner. Burger’s were excellent and my wife had the sea bass, a good portion. We got a 30% discount that made it even better value

Lovely staff, food and surroundings. My husband asked for a rare steak and was really pleased with what he got. It was rare and not medium as so often is the case when he orders steak. We are looking forward to visiting again.

Made to feel very welcome in the bar with our dog Skye. Food was great we just had a burger, a kebab skewer and some drinks.. The staff were so friendly, they loved the dog.. made a huge fuss over her, gave her treats and a bit of turkey too.. Great job all at The Dog, a lovely atmosphere.

Enjoyed a really lovely lunch here today. Booked beforehand for the garden, but on arrival we changed our minds as weather not as expected. The very welcoming member of staff was more than happy to find us a table inside. The food and service were excellent, and the pub itself is very pleasant and relaxing. Would definitely recommend. Chicken and mushroom pie wonderful!

We booked a Wednesday special offer meal of a pie and a pint of your choice according to the website Upon arrival we were told that the drinks available were only ales or lager or soft drinks this was disappointing as my girlfriend only drinks Guinness and I only drink cider so we questioned this with staff to be told that there was nothing they could do about it as the tills would not let any other drinks than what they were offering So anyone else thinking off this offer beware of the drinks situation

Horrendously understaffed, waited over 2 hours for mains. Asked for cutlery, as there weren’t enough knives after we’d had starters. Waitress was snippy, dismissive and defensive. Food was lukewarm, glasses weren’t cleared, we did this ourselves. Table wasn’t cleared for ages. Such a shame, could be an amazing pub, but let down badly by lack of service.

Liam was fantastic, offering us drinks just as our last were finished, going to the trouble of calling the kid’s turkey dinner a chicken dinner because my daughter is a fusspot and just generally being really friendly and attentive. Genuinely the type of service that rarely see in the UK Thanks again for a lovely meal :)

We had booked for a double birthday celebration. We were really looking forward to the meal as we had been here before but we left very disappointed. I understand that there were issues in the kitchen beyond anyone's control however I felt that the kitchen should have been closed. I also feel with all the delays and short staffing we should have been informed when we arrived. We didn't eat any meals in the end and had to leave them. The quality of the food was shocking and it shouldn't have left the kitchen. We had been served undercooked chicken, fish goujons with raw batter and frozen mash. The front of house was excellent and was understanding and apologetic. I feel that if the kitchen were that understaffed and it was having a detrimental effect on the service it would be better just not to serve food and just serve drinks. I think people would be understanding given the situation and rebooked. I don't think will rebook now and that's due to management decisions. We don't often have time to get together for a meal as a family so it's a real shame how it ended. We didn't have to pay for the food but it did ruin the evening and what should have been a lovely meal for birthdays.

When I told the waiter he was able to reduct the steak off the bill. So all in all we received good service

I went either my mom who's my carer as I'm disabled. They had a psychic fayre on and as I went to sit in an empty chair a staff member told me that I couldn't sit there as the bar table was reserved (there were no reserved signs on it) We were told by the bar staff that if we wanted a drink we'd have to stand outside. I saw the advertisement on a sandwich board as I drove past and nothing stated that I had to book a table if I wanted a drink. It's bad enough being discriminated against on most days but they made me feel like a naughty dog who had to be put outside. I was so upset that it completely put me off going out all together, you shouldn't be made to stand outside to drink, regardless of whether you're disabled or not

No pride in the food being sent out an can show if the meat in on Sunday is tough it’s because this joker thinks it’s ok to freeze it for next week this dosent stop at meat she asso like to freeze cooked veg u wud be better off buying a raedy meal
