Gardener's Country Inn in East Riding of Yorkshire

We booked into the lodges next to the Gardeners Inn and decided to walk around for dinner & drinks. The venue is decorated for Halloween which I did enjoy and we had a lovely welcome from the waitress. A few item were sold out but the menu was plentiful and the food did not disappoint. I had the sizzling hunters chicken and my partner had Korean Chicken. Portion size was fantastic the side salad & slaw was fresh, definitely the best hunters chicken I’ve had. Banoffee Pie & cream for dessert again it was better than any other I’ve tried. Lovely atmosphere, service time felt right for the number of tables eating and the price was reasonable. Would recommend 100%

Shocking service from the moment we set foot into the pub 5 adults turned up for a pre booked Sunday lunch the pub had only been open a couple of hours and had sold out of Sunday lunches and had no potato’s for other meals , the owner hasn’t got a clue how to run a food establishment . We had travelled 20 miles each to meet family members and left disgruntled and shocked , very poor show from the owners and staff responsible for buying stock for the days meals

We have just had the most amazing Sunday lunch here today, the best we have ever tasted. The Yorkshire pudding was so light and the mashed potato was so buttery and smooth, the meat cooked perfectly. I had beef and my husband had beef and pork and it was served lovely and hot. I also had a chocolate brownie with cream for desert and it was the best brownie I have ever eaten (and I have had plenty to compare it with). The staff were so polite and nothing was any trouble. The only downside is that we are on holiday and just wish that we had a ''The Gardeners Country Inn'' closer to home.

Amazing manager and staff! They were so friendly and so kind towards all of the customers. The food was yummy and affordable. The owner should be proud to own such a lovely business.Me and my family will be going back when up this way again!!

Me, my husband and dog Max all visited the Gardeners Pub this weekend for drinks on Friday and Saturday teatime and a meal on Sunday. The staff were very friendly and the landlady came round making sure everyone including our dog was having a good time on our break. We had Sunday lunch which I would highly recommend. I would highly recommend the Gardeners to anyone visiting Willow Pastures or the surrounding area, we thoroughly enjoyed our visits.

Hands down, one of the worst experiences ever. Drinks order was taken, 30 mins later I went to the bar and was told to sit down, they were coming, from a young girl with an attitude, 10 mins later they arrive. Table booked at 7pm, food arrives at 8pm prompt, steak was cool, scampi was chestnut coloured. Don't get me started on the flies, we were getting dive bombed relentlessly. I am embarrassed to say I left my wife to finish her meal, I had to get out.

Staying locally and was told shout this place by the sure office Food was ok but not great & is expensive I tried the chicken & waffles, chicken was dry & waffles over done Friend had steak was nice but gristle running through it , and the peppercorn sauce was not edible Told the lady in paying

We came ages ago and it was good. The mixed kebab platter was very poor. The meat was massively over cooked and like the packs you get from Sainsbury’s. The dinner was good according to my wife and chicken and chips nice. Onions rings were fresh but burger mediocre. I would have complained but our autistic son would not have waited for another meal. Service and costs ok.

lovley food and great service from all staff so kind and helpful food cooked to perfection quick service lovley staff

I have never been more disappointed and quite outraged by the extremely poor service received by the staff on Christmas Eve. It’s rare my partner and I have the opportunity to dine out without a minor. We thought we’d have a treat and go somewhere...

If i could put 0 star I would!! Our first Christmas dinner experience with these was awful. The first time we had decided to eat out for Christmas dinner and what a mistake that was. We was booked in for 2:30, waited an hour before...

Absolutely terrible service and rude staff the Christmas dinner came out 2h late and the threats received from the manager is outrageous and they need to reflect on the way to run a restaurant/ pub. This would have been absolutely fine if it wasn’t under...

Wow, what a transformation Jenny and her team have made here since taking over the pub in March this year. Came here in Feb. The place was cold, and the atmosphere was nonexistent. This time, the pub was very warm. atmosphere great and food exceptional,...

Breakfast was lovely yesterday. Today, amazing Sunday dinner as always! See you next week :) Great to see the place busy everytimw we visit!

Well, where to begin? Ah, yes; firstly, I would like to state that, as a local business owner, I have NEVER been inspired to leave negative feedback for any other small, local business, as we can all have our 'off' moments. That is, until my...

Popped in for Sunday roast, was quickly seated, drinks ordered and arrived within 5 minutes and food arrived around 20 minutes later. The Sunday roast was lovely, good portion sizes and really pleased to see Homemade Yorkshire puddings and tradition veggies back on the menu!...

Second visit here, the first time quite a while ago. Had Sunday lunch and came away disappointed. Long wait to order. Long wait for food. Small plate with food in a pile. Boring, plain veg. Dirty table which I asked to be wiped and dirty...

We stayed In one of the letting rooms, which were clean, fresh and spacious. Enjoyed the huge bath tub too. We got the Parmesan truffle fries which were delicious. The homemade chips were also fantastic. Oh and the cheeseburger spring rolls were a delight. The...

Cracking food and customer service. Pub was fully decked out for Halloween for all ages. Well done Team. Brilliant place.

Sorry but this will be our one and only visit, once bitten twice shy! The service was tardy to say the least and when our Sunday lunches arrived to say I was disappointed would be an understatement. I know times are hard and things are...

This place is amazing! We booked a family meal for a joint 60th as the birthday girls didn’t want too much fuss and it was brilliant. The staff couldn’t have done more for any of us. The kids had a ball, everyone was catered for,...

After visiting in the summer for a couple of the kids events but not eating, we thought we’d try out the food. Arrived on a Saturday lunch and the place was empty. We waited about 40 minutes for food, by which time the kids were...

We used to love gardeners & their carvery - however it was taken over and the quality of the food went down hill! Thankfully we’ve been twice since the new owners and it hasn’t disappointed! The steak pie is enormous and so tasty!

Brought my mum here for lunch, never had a bad experience here before so was confident she’d enjoy it. We ordered the fish and chips and honestly it was the worst fish and chips I’ve ever had. The fish smelt and tasted like “wet dog”,...

Couldn't have asked for nicer staff or better food. Everything was perfect!!. Have been a few times now and never had a bad word to say about anything!!

Literally one of the worst experiences I’ve had in a long time! We had booked our table in advance and requested a high chair on the booking. We were seated on arrival and the staff member knew about the high chair and said she would...

On Thursday evening, we went to have a family meal whilst staying in the lodges next door. Our starter of bread and oils arrived and quite frankly, was not worth the £9.50 price tag. It consisted of 3 small par baked buns and a pot...

Shocking food, rib eye and as more like a frying steak not with £5 let alone £20, the peppercorn sauce was disgusting 🤢 congealed strange watery sauce shocking then when complained they still charged us for it until I questioned the bill. The bbq wings...

Very busy and took awhile to get the food, which we expected. But it was worth the wait. Definitely recommend the mushroom risotto it tasted fabulous and my partner had the mixed grill which he thoroughly enjoyed 👍

Came here for a meal after school with the kids, got served straight away, didn’t keep us waiting, really friendly staff, and the hunters chicken and ploughman’s was the best I’ve had in a very long time. Kids enjoyed their dino and unicorn ice creams.

First time visiting the restaurant this week as we were staying in the lodges next door, we came to the restaurant/bar every evening over our stay and the service and standard of the food/drink were outstanding. Monday evening after travelling 4 plus hours to arrive...

Excellent food and service. Staff are all friendly and all on standby ready to help and any time would definitely visit again

Such a fab place for a bite to eat and a drink, the team were fabulous and very attentive. The beer garden was amazing for a summers day also.
