Amazing night! Great atmosphere for the England match! Staff worked their arses off! Young Alby serving food and clearing tables never stopped all night! Lots of new faces tonight who just fit in and had a good time! I would recommend this pub to all!

Really excellent member of staff called Alby who went above and beyond throughout the day. He didn’t stop working and even discreetly brought out a birthday cake for one of our party. He is an absolute asset to the pub!

My mum and dad have been regulars for a while but we stopped coming due to the extortionate price rises of drinks and lack of effort in the food. We decided to give it a final chance as I’m back home for the weekend after giving it a break for some time. Unfortunately nothing has changed. We visit numerous marstons pubs in the town and this one is by far the most expensive for drinks and the least quality for food. Two other marstons in the town have promotional deal signs on there bar for people to enjoy but when asked here we were told sorry we only do our own deals, later to see the same promo signs just left to the side of the bar hidden out of the way. Drinks: served in warm glasses we seen get left on the side for a long time while staff cleaned the bar around them, then placed said dirty cloths upon the glasses and cleaning products around them. Prices are just so high I can’t justify drinking here when there are so many nicer pubs better priced in this lovely town. Food: It took 20 minutes for someone to clear out tables with food and plates from the people here before us (all plates left by them had merely a few bites and left also) we went to the bar to get served and it took 15 minutes and there was only us there. Two staff behind the bar were too busy talking to the owner who seemed more interested in sitting with costumers and getting drunk than running the pub unfortunately. Once finally getting served we waited 50 minutes for 1 mixed grill and two microwaved meals. Mixed grill was missing most things. It did not come with mushrooms, tomato or chicken. The sausages were rock hard and burnt black all the way through, my poor dad couldn’t even bite through it. The gammon was cold and seemed very undercooked. And my dad has not been off the toilet since. Chicken tikka curry. The sauce was piping hot but there were still frozen bits of chicken in it. The naan bread was rock hard and over cooked. The rice was all stuck together in a block and dry and somehow the papadum had burn marks on it. Beef burger. Burger itself was okay but the bun was stale and the lettuce seemed way past expiration and definitely were not fresh. I love homemade chips and was so excited for them but I could not even bite through half of them, certainly we’re not cooked properly. And to top it all off there were very long black/brow hairs wrapped in my burger. I’m so let down by this place. I was back home for only one night and just wanted a half decent place to relax with family unfortunately this is not a nice place at all. I would avoid at all costs. Atmosphere - it was okay at first but the more people that came in, seemed to leave there kids in the play area unattended while they had a drink which led to screaming kids running around the full pub and this did not stop. The table facing the bar were also so loud and obnoxious. Side note - when I used the women’s toilets there were used sanitary products all over the cubicle floors and sick in the other. I’ve been told this used to be so nice back in the day but I feel like they have just let it slip. On leaving, whoever is renting the flat above the pub was definitely smoking illegal substances as it’s all you could smell from near the child’s play area. I was not going to write this review on request of my parents however when they looked on this site it looks like most reviews are written by staff members working there enticing people to come and waste there money so this is my honest experience and we will not be back.

Food service was absolutely shocking over an hour and half waiting for 3 currys. When we finally went up to the barman (as was busy so allowed them extra time) he apologized and said the order was never placed. He offered us a free drink each (which we said no too) and we waited for our food. Nice looking pub but service was bad

First time in today despite being quite local to it, it's just off the main routes so you tend to forget it exists. Had an excellent pint of Camerons Strongarm and we both had Steak and Mushroom Pie, Chips and Peas. Very good food. Adequate portion size, nice pie, excellent chips and a large helping of gravy. Considerably better the the last shocking pie offering at The Talpore and a few quid cheaper as well. Special mention to very very friendly and helpful service we received. Will definitely be going back here at some point. Five stars if the have a guest beer on draught next time I'm in. 😘
