Great resturant, good food and atmosphere. Only downside is the descretionary 10% service charge added to the bill for tables of over 5. If you are going to do this then add it to ALL bills regardless of the number of occupants. I also do not see why it is added to the cost of the drinks the bar is only 10m away and it adds over £2 for a bottle of wine. My service charge would have been over £30 which I considered excessive, I then had the embarisment of asking to have it removed.

Read so much about this place so decided to take wife for Sunday lunch well building and ambiance when into bar area haddog with us Ordered drinks and sat down no one come over to us so asked for menu ve comprehensive I may had wife didn’t want starter I again had to go to bar and ask what was the soup of the (mushroom) to which I ordered and we both chose the lamb (So far so good my soup arrived and can only be described as MAGNiF Here’s where it all goes down 🤑 Our lamb arrives and at first glance looks nice however there where 3 supposedly roast potatoes I tried to cut in it and was like leather the smell from said potato was like horrible and tasted just as bad just like you where eating a raw potato I went to bar and explained to n’armant he said he would get them exchanged and to be fair they did another man brought out 3 more with gravy so put one on my plate which was exactly the same as the ones I’d sent back this along with the thinnest slices of fat / lamb and undercooked veggies had by this time spoilt my appetite we finished our drinks I then went up to bar to pay and explain all of above to my surprise I would probably had more attention from my DOG so to conclude having spent the best part of £60 from my children s inheritance fund ! My wife and I left feeling really underfed and very disappointed with our experience

We have just visited today for Sunday lunch! The food was good but we’re sat on a table next to the door into the kitchen which was like being sat in a wind tunnel! When we left I pointed out how dissatisfied were with this and both the managers were not bothered! My husband helped his 95 year mother out the door, I was on crutches and both men stood there and watched me struggle and at no point helped me! Totally disgusted!!!!!

The meal was lovely and service good. At the end I went to pay my bill and was given the wrong one or at least an incorrect one. This was corrected and I paid it. It wasn’t till I got home the I realised I had been charged £3:50 for a pint of soda water and a dash of blackcurrant. I know everything has increased in price but that seems a little extreme.

Having been on several occasions for lunch we recently ventured again very recently. The experience unusually on this occasion was not so good. The sandwich menu says bread will be bloomer, this was not so, just your regular everyday whole meal sliced the same as from the supermarket. Lunch was ok but we have certainly had better here….

Rude manager who blocks you from leaving reviews on Facebook page! Ordered a takeaway and the first time it was good. Second time was absolutely awful and completely different to the first time we ordered! Got a rude reply from the manager and then got blocked from being able to book a table to try again! (We live local) The standard of food we received the second time was worse than mc Donald’s! And then to receive a rude reply from management and to be blocked from Facebook after being ignored about my complaint for months is disgusting! Shows exactly what type of manager he is! Will not ever return and have showed lots of local people the photos of how bad the food was we received. So many other local. Friendly restaurants around. Do not recommend at all!

Arrived at 6pm wasn’t quite sure how busy it was going to be, but we’re glad to see clear signs for entry and exit. Many stations for hand sanitisers table were well set out for Covid-19 safety guidance. Staff were extremely friendly and as the waitress was unable to access our online booking, she took an extra precaution as to ask us to write our Contact details down. ✔️ We ordered a very reasonable bottle of wine, which went down a treat, as well as table water. My husband is GF so he ordered a gf starter and main I ordered a veggie starter and a pie main, we were very satisfied with our food, possibly the best pie I’ve ever had in a pub, very very nice indeed. My Husband order the beef rib, which was equally as nice. Things were a little different to the norm, I did see a lot of cleaning going on especially of the menus, but that was a good thing for me to see so that I could enjoy my meal knowing that my safety was being considered!! All in all a very nice experience, one which we hope to repeat very soon.

Great food and service but not convinced by virus precautions. Waitresses came far too close and all the menus were reused without cleaning. Overall with the closeness of the tables we didn’t feel particularly safe once the restaurant got busy so left quite early. Despite this we did have some lovely food and would really recommend the chicken pie. Delicious!

Arrived promptly at 7pm and were shown to our table. Waitress took 10 minutes to ask if we wanted drinks and another 10 minutes to deliver them. 7.25 and we managed to place our order.15 minutes wait for the starters. The seafood salad was delicious if small and there was no avocado on either my or my friend's plate. Main course then took as further 25 minutes to arrive. Food was excellent quality but again a fairly small portion.Waitress eventually managed to clear our plates and whilst we did not want sweets - by this time we were fed up with waiting and ordered two Irish coffees, one Americano and a fruit tea. She then returned to inform us that there was a problem with the coffee machine and we would have to wait at least 10 minutes ti get it.At this point, we just asked for the bill which came fairly promptly but than had to wait again to pay for the meals. We are generally pretty generous tippers but in this case we halved the tip and my friend grudgingly paid his share as he didn't think that the service warranted any sort of tip.If you look at their website it asks if you would vacate your table by 9pm and thought that this would not be a problem for us. However, we eventually left at 8.55 - two hours to serve two courses!

Disappointed is not the word, took my family here for the first time today for my wife’s birthday, we had the mixed red meat sharing board at 22£ per person. 1 slice of beef each and 2 small pieces of lamb, both were very dry, mixed medley of greens which were ok ish, the roast potatoes were very over done to the point where they were hard to cut, everything was cold including the watery gravy. Ordered a side of cauliflower cheese and again was cold and hard to cut so we left it. We left very dissatisfied and unfortunately will not be returning. A shame really because it was recommended.

We are Sunday lunch here family of 4 the food was lovely the service was excellent the staff were so friendly. The decor is very nice and an open fire makes it cosy when it’s cold outside. We will definitely visit again soon.

While queuing at the bar for food a very rude man was complaining about food that wasn't even on the menu but not available and that he didn't like anything else, in my opinion if you can't find something you like on a menu with the variety of the Hansom Cab then you have issues. Anna serving was professional and polite going above and beyond to please this arrogant individual. Well done Anna for your service today it was top draw..

Visited last night for a pre Christmas meal with friends. I have to say the food was superb. Reading other reviews it appears that this place has been hit with several problems recently. Last night the previous owner was waiting on tables as staff were off ill. It was very quiet unfortunately which obviously had a bearing on the atmosphere. Don’t let past events and bad reviews put you off as I believe this place under normal circumstances is a hidden gem.
