The food was incredible today. I came in with my wife and child and had an ultimate combo starter, before we all had full Monty mixed grills. The food was great and the service was just as good. Our server brought the food over and check in with us regularly. Thoroughly enjoyable experience

We came for lunch around 1pm and were seated quickly by the helpul staff. We had the steak and ale pie with chips; and a chicken New Yorker. The food was great and value for money. Combined with the excellent service from manager (Stan or Sam I think he said his name was -apologies if incorrect!!) and staff we will be back again. Thank you!

Had a lovely family breakfast at the yeomans today Leanne welcomed us and took our orders Leanne was very friendly and chatty found this pleasant customer service. Food was quick service. Leanne approached us whilst eating to ask if the food was okay and if we needed anything any other drinks etc. couldn’t thank Leanne enough for the service she provided for us today would highly recommend

We went there today for my brothers birthday. The service was good but that's where it stops, I'm afraid. The roast dinner my brother and I had consisted of very small frozen bought roast potatoes, frozen veg (was defintely not fresh). The beef itself was passable. My partner had a mixed grill. The two sausages were of a poor quality, he left most of that. The chicken was really dry. The gammon, egg and chips were as you would expect. As I mentioned above, the waitresses were friendly enough, that was the best part of the overall experience. Sorry, to give a negative review but I have to be honest here. I won't be returning.

Very impressed, service from manager at table and bar, the waitress is an absolute asset to the pub restaurant. The Korean burger was sublime, cooked really well, very hot temperature wise, so received quickly from cooking, chips clearly cooked in clean fat, crisp and seasoned perfectly. Buy one get one free day too. It was mint!

Visited 4th December. Warm welcome from Dave and the team. Festive atmosphere and warm and cosy. Order taken promptly which was for a mixed grill and smothered steak. Food arrived quickly and was piping hot, and the steaks cooked exactly as we had ordered. Staff checked to see if everything was satisfactory. Excellent value for money. No hesitation in recommending.

I always have coffee in this coffee shop as it is closest to me and they have a nice tasting coffee. However, the cafe is always dirty. Crumbs on the seat and left over food in the table. Also, you will always smell kitchen after sitting in the cafe for few minutes. Customer service is not great too, barista is always so cold and not welcoming.

We were going to eat in the cafe, but were put off by the number of uncleared tables. The whole place looked a mess! And it wasn't even a busy time! And the customer toilets ( at least in the gents ) were a disgrace. There was no toilet paper in the WCs, the one soap dispenser was empty and one of the two hand dryers wasn't working.

Very disappointing. Ordered the sausage bap £6.95. Got a dry brioche bun (which I personally don't like), not a bap containing 1.5 small sausages. No relish, garnish. My friend ordered the bacon bap £5.95 - again a dry brioche and a small amount of bacon. The place looked lovely from outside, but service was slow even though it wasn't particularly busy. Maybe we just chose the wrong option, but won't be returning. 😒
