Wanted one glass of Prosecco, list says that’s possible but when you ask they only sell by the bottle. Shouldn’t be allowed to list it as a glass if it’s not actually available.

Starter of garlic mushrooms was only luke warm with not very nice sauce, little taste of garlic served on soggy bread. Main course of mushroom pie had mushy carrots and raw broccoli with it. As with starter, only luke warm. Sherry trifle was nice. Charge of £70 for 2 meals and 1 drink each for me and my wife was not justified.

We meet with family at the grange. We had a great welcome, service from our waitress Mel was excellent she made sure all was ok with every thing, didn’t hound us but did ensure we had what needed and wanted, didn’t wait for any thing long. Food was outstanding, hot, tasty, enough of it but also didn’t feel was too much. Well presented. The pub itself was clean well presented and a lovely fire which really helped with a great atmosphere. Will be going back again

With a party of 21 people, most restaurants would have struggled to get out hot food altogether. Not the staff at the Grange. Absolutely amazing staff support. Happy to help at every turn. Great food is served here. Everything from veggie and fish options to hearty meat pies. Good sized portions and super tasty desserts. Thank you to the front of house and chef team. Recommended highly.

The food here is 10/10. Professional and speedy service by Jac even though a 20+ party of guests arrived to celebrate a birthday. We eat at Chef & Brewer pubs regularly during the week, the menu is the same at each but,this is the best pork belly we have enjoyed out of all the C&B pubs up and down the country!

The service by Jackie was very good. We had the roast on Sunday 20th October but although the turkey and roast potatoes were lovely, the cabbage, Savoy, was under cooked (I hate Savoy), the food wasn't very hot. The dessert was gorgeous. The table we were given was in a very noisy corner with a very noisy family. Surely they could have a separate section for people with kids!! I asked for a quiet table away from draughts but that didn't happen. All in all, if the food had been hot, served quicker and less noisy, it would have been more enjoyable.

We came for a dinner with 13 of us. Restaurant was very quiet but sadly the service was extremely slow. Took ages to even get served then had to wait an hour and a half for food. One of our party was told twice that the food she had ordered was no longer available. When she of told at the start. Food was all ok when it finally arrived. Sadly the attitude of our server was awful. She was incredibly rude to more than one of us. The shift manager did come and apologise at the end. Which means we would maybe give the place one more chance.

I had very specifics and each one was taken into consideration and a dish was prepared for me which was first class and the Italian merlot house wine went down a treat too. Steak was med rare, exactly how I like it, dry grilled,,,no fat at all, excellent!

Sunday 29th September 2024 at 7pm. Great little(not so little) pub and grub place, stayed at the travelodge next door so was a great surprise to have this place footsteps away. The food was really good and was catered for gluten free options too, today we had the trio of meats Sunday roast including beef/pork/turkey, it was very substantial in size too, we had extras including colliflower cheese and pigs in blankets(two almost full size sausages in bacon). Price of the food was also very reasonable for the quantity. £16.99 for the roast alone. In total the bill for 2 including drinks and extra sides was £82.50 which incorporated 2 large wines, 1 1/2 pints of beer and 2 large whiskies and two sides. The server was called "Kim" and what a lovely young lady she was/is, very knowledgeable and very attentive and very curtious. Thank You Kim for making our meal even more decent on a day we had travelled 5hrs for a wake. If we had to come this way again it would be a pleasure to have another meal here. Neal and Sally.

We visited as a party of 5 for my birthday on Sunday, and they very thoughtfully gave me a birthday card (a personalised hand written one not just a generic one, very impressed, thank you). The food was lovely (although there was a small issue with one meal). Service was attentive but not intrusive. We would like to mention one young man, and I believe he was the manager. Very welcoming from the moment we stepped in the door. Talk about customer service done right. Half our party was already seated, but he immediately asked what we wanted to drink so he could follow us to the table with the drinks. He spoke to us after the meal as we were leaving and was apologetic about the small issue. We all left saying what a credit he is to the pub, and what good customer service he provided. Well done 👍

If you’re staying at the onsite Premier Inn, The Grange is a great option for drinks and dinner. This is an old English pub environment with no loud music. Our waitress Mel looked after us during a very busy dinner service but nothing was too much trouble. Our meals of sea bass and gammon were excellent and good value. The manager Cam served us drinks at the bar after dinner. Highly recommended.

Met up with family for evening meal. Extremely long wait for mains to arrive, and it wasn't busy. I wanted sea bass with salad instead of roast potatoes (as I don't eat them) it came with a tiny amount of greens couldn't call it a salad. Fish not hot as was others in the party and one was sent back and broccoli cold.

Staying at the Premier Inn just over the road with family and a family friend for a few nights so had two evening meals there as convenient. Cannot fault it at all. An olde world feel to the Pub/Restaurant, lovely food on both visits, friendly staff (hat tip to Mel and everyone for the service) and as we ordered three courses from a set menu for £20 (exc. drinks) it was real value for money, especially when we are all watching the pennies.

Really disappointed with our visit to the Grange tonight, been here a number of times and the food and the service was good. Not sure what has changed but wasn’t a great experience!! So we ordered the sharing platter which was plenty of food but no sauce, admittedly we didn’t ask for any but it seem to be quite a lot of dry food without any sauces and we wasn’t offered any. Fish and chips x2 and the duo of chicken was our main orders. 1 fish looked like it was beer battered very thin and hardly any fish! The second fish was more breaded then battered fish was tough but we had to share as the beer battered one was so thin! The duo of Chicken was a breast of chicken with the smallest chicken strips x3 I’ve ever seen! Then had to wait for the extra scampi and bread and butter as they forgot to cook them! A half a slice of bread arrived with a triangle of butter on the top and 3 little pieces of scampi just placed on the table without any apology for the delay! A really poor experience which was a shame as I feel I would have got better value from a weatherspoons!!
