First time visiting the Gate a Couple days ago. And it was fantastic! Stace and Adam are so welcoming! And the food is incredible! You can tell everything is homemade! The lasagne was incredible and the chips are to die for! Definitely going to make it our local dining out spot! The food is fabulous value for money! We could barely finish the portions are so generous!

Good quality food and friendly staff. Only three meat options on a Sunday so I would have liked a few more choices.

We only visited for the classic car and bike night which is held on certain Tuesday evenings. As the weather was nice and sunny we sat in the beer garden I have given 5 stars as the last serving and tending for the customers in the garden was very pleasant and the drinks were very good.

We had a family party here, the food was amazing, everyone loved it. I had homemade lasagne with salad and garlic bread it was so good. The staff were welcoming and very accommodating to everyone's needs. It had a great area for the kids to play outside. We'll definitely come back.

Didn't have a great experience here today, booked a table for a Sunday roast for the first time as have heard good reviews about the place. Stood at bar for 15 mins without being noticed, went to the loo and thought I'd get served when back, it wasn't even that busy. Loos were dirty with no toilet roll. Headed back to the bar but was ignored again barmaid was too busy messaging on her phone didn't even get asked if we had a table booked etc. ended up walking out. Glad we did as it was full of riff raff swearing with tops off, it was swarming with kids on a filthy dirty bouncy castle. Really tatty place with run down beer garden, god knows how these kids running the place manage to serve a decent roast but I wouldn't want to try it, never again!

Been some time since we'd called at The Gate, as previous experience a couple of years ago wasn't so good. We'd oy just heard about change of management, so called last week for evening meal. Food fantastic, welcoming atmosphere, so it's back on our radar !! Thanks to the new team. Great !! Fred & Chris

Called in to check the menu and for a quick cup of coffee. The prices are a little bit steep for the food but there's a good selection, I had a lovely coffee, and when I went to pay I was told it was free, so well done the Gate.

Well we went to the gate inn tonight. Its quite a small pub. I have to say the food is really good and the staff are pleasant. But the down side is long waited for food but it is all home made and cooked fresh to order . And the lack of knifes and forks was abit strange as had to waite for them . But overall food is good and tasty and the staff are great . We will probably try again .

I have just returned home from my boys taking me out for a Mothers Day meal. Straight away the atmosphere was friendly with lovely decorations for the day to make you feel special. The roast and pudding was gorgeous. Lovely creamy mash, roast potatoes to die for and the meat was perfect. The staff were very attentive asking for drinks orders and clearing plates. All with a nice sense of humour. A final surprise that made me smile was a bunch of daffodils from the pub for mums and a photograph with a printed copy before you left. What a lovely gesture. Thank you π

As this is a pub I drink in quite regularly I thought I'd try the new "pubs" menu (not the normal pub chain foder). All I can say is it was awesome, the 9 of us had a good verity of meals and everyone was over the moon. Portions are more than ample and the quality is very high. Chips are like no others. Try this, you won't be disappointed.

Stopped in for a couple of drinks. No cask ales, no vegan or gluten free options on the food menu. We were served by an underage girl. Surfaces and floors were sticky and unclean. Not a nice atmosphere or experience.

What an amazing little gem this pub and restaurant is! All of the staff including the management, were so friendly and polite! The lamb hot-pots were gorgeous! They only had two left as they were so popular this week on their specials board! . . word obviously has got round! π I enjoyed the mixed grill which was served with the nicest chips I've ever had - honestly, they are to die for! π The roast potatoes with the hot-pot were the same! I was really pleased that they never charged me for my extra egg! Little touches like that, stick in your mind and puts them above so many other places! π Claire and my daughter Summer, are still going on about how beautiful their meal was! π Thanks again to this lovely friendly pub! See you soon, Nigel and Claire π

Took wife for a couple of drinks today in the garden to enjoy the sun Was spoilt by a group sitting in the middle of the garden swearing and shouting and being homophonic towards a certain gent ( think they knew each other) but that doesnβt matter Nobody wants to hear that language in a public House garden Lived here over two years and been using this pub from day one, have to say it is now attracting some very undesirable clientele Also drink prices are a LOT more expensive than the neighbouring pubs !!

She's not able to do food of any description but she did say that a new landlord would be in the pub from " Monday 20th February " the pub would be back to normal and doing food !

Walked in and all you could smell was bleach and the urinal. When we got into the eating area we asked if the were serving meals and she shouted to a chap in the far side of the bar and ask him and he just grunted a suppose so. Needless to say we turned round and walked out. This used to be a really nice pub for a meal and a drink but I won't be going back anytime soon. Shame.

Delicious roast dinner however there were no other options for Sunday. And due to there being an incident the night before there were no puddings. I know this wasn't their fault but was a little disappointing. Only found out when ordering desserts. Also the lady serving us didn't know there were no desserts until we asked to see the menu. Could not fault the food we were served.

I was lucky enough to be invited to a wedding meal here - I had pate and toast to start, roast pork with roast potatoes, peas, carrots and yorkshire pudding for main, and a dessert of ice cream sundae. The staff were excellent, friendly, and as efficient as they could be given the challenge of serving around 40 guests. The food was great too - I've been to several weddings where the standard of food reflects the fact the kitchen is really just trying to churn out the numbers and this really wasn't the case here. Real effort had gone into every plate with attention paid to both the cooking and the presentation. I've only held back one star because due to the number of varieties of meals being served, there were extended periods where I found myself or others politely waiting for the rest of the table to get their meals before being able to start eating. I guess this is the challenge of serving from a relatively smaller kitchen to a large group of guests - it would have been preferable to me to serve table by table rather than dish by dish, but probably impossible to achieve and its not a criticism.

We got married yesterday and had our reception at The Gate Inn and we couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue. The food was amazing, the staff were amazing. Its a beautiful place with loads of charm. We had a wedding for 43 booked, and there was space, it was close and personal and just wonderful. Ian made our cake too and it was beautiful and tasted great. They are a great team of people and they went out of their way to make our day special. I know I mentioned the food already, but the food is so great that it needs mentioning twice. Ian and Stacey make The Gate a warm and welcoming place to be. Thank for making our day so special.

Working in the area, me and my colleague wanted to pick something decent. Safe to say this didn't disappoint throughout. Stunning rooms, styling wise, very clean, everything was top marks. Had food in the restaurant and that was also really nice, not to mention a free pint for booking the room. Staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Will 100% be looking to return here in the future. I'm not often impressed when staying away, but you guys did not disappoint.
