Unplanned lunch out with husband, mum & dad to celebrate my 65 birthday . Welcoming staff , although menu was uninspiring with vegetarian meals. Mum did have the tasty halloumi flatbread I did miss my favourite chicken Caesar salad 🥗 though .

Spur of the moment decision to have lunch in a local pub. To be honest, we've driven past many times and never thought to pay a visit but friends kept telling me what a nice place it is. We were greeted by welcoming staff member (Beverley). We received a very courteous service at the bar from the new manager Peter too. The food was tasty and hot and we didn't have to wait very long. It was lovely clean too and had a multitude of larger options. 100% will make this a regular place to visit and will tell my friends.

I recently visited Jolly Fenman, a pub that's quite unique in many ways. It’s a large venue with extensive outdoor space, including a garden, kids' zone, smoking area, and plenty of parking—features you don’t often find in pubs. The best part is their grills, which are fantastic, and the menu is vast, offering a wide variety of delicious options. I had a really great time, not just because of the food, but also because of the numerous gaming options available, like snooker and betting machines. Jolly Fenman truly offers something for everyone, making it a standout spot for a fun and enjoyable visit.

We came here for our end of university drinks, planning to spend the majority of the evening there however we were let down as the pub has changed to over 21s (even though we were here 2 weeks ago when its was not over 21s). We sat outside in the garden hoping to have a relaxed evening with drinks and food, however the young guy who served us came over and asked for our ID’s after serving us our drinks. At this point, we had all taken sips out of our drinks so there made no difference in us being there what so ever because we had already been served. We were then told the pub was over 21s and were told to come to the bar to return our drinks and to get refunds. We were standing at the bar for about 5 minutes waiting for our refunds. It was a lovely beer garden, and we would have love to spend the evening there and give them a lot of business. But we have had to relocate to other pubs in Eltham. We would love to come back when we are 21, however we do think you should have allowed us to finish our drinks that we had purchased. We are all of age. The young guy who served us was really lovely, however I am aware that he should have asked for ID at the point of serving. In addition, the manager (ginger lady who was abrupt when giving refunds) was sitting on a table next to the bar when we were being served. They should have come over and asked for our ID in the first place, instead of pouring our drinks allowing us to take them to our table and sit down starting to enjoy the evening.

They said an hour wait for food which we was OK with... we made 2 separate orders paid for ours 1st and the other order came out first and they ate all there's before ours came out at this point we was still waiting for our drinks we had to go and ask for our drinks they only brang out 1 lot of drinks we went back and asked for our other drinks which they said we gave your drinks... even came to check the table to see if we had empty glasses for said drinks!! Ordered my daughter the roast and paid extra for the pigs in blankets for £3 something and 1 little pigs in blankets came 👀 I questioned it and they said they would bring it out another 45minutes passed still no pigs on blankets because we had been up a few times asking for our stuff we just left we had enough at this point! I get it, it was busy but we spent £120 for just 1 order and £100 for the other order for not that great service or food! It was my 1st time there and the last time!

Came along today with daughters to watch WSL match as advertised at front door that was showing today, match wasn't on but after 3 attempts they finally put it on one of the screens, Spent £60 on food and drink, very small portions on the platters, waited 50 minutes. People on next table were waiting over well over an hour, during the match they kept scrolling through the tv and at beginning of 2nd half they put a different match on. So we left to watch at home, will go elsewhere in future. Not sure why they advertise matches if they don't show them, The only reason I went was so my kids could watch it.

We was meeting up with my son's friend, so decided to pop into The Jolly Fenman , in Black Fen . This was my first visit to this pub , and I was pleasantly surprised. To start large free carpark, plenty of spaces. Inside the pub , nice and bright, and clean, lots of tables to sit , and drink, chat , or have a meal . We choose to have a pint , and played pool while we waited, we also ordered the Ultimate Feast to share , was very nice , fresh and hot , ample for two to share. Stayed about two hours, service was good , ( Served by a happy young lady Shaye , and nice gentleman Colin), food was good , enjoyed our pool game , and drinks , would definitely recommend a visit. Thank you Jolly Fenman.

Food was very tasty, with a very wide range to choose from. The bar and garden are dog friendly, so that was great. Good sized carpark, which is very useful as I am not sure where we would have parked otherwise. The only downside is that there are screens everywhere, so if you are not keen on football or sport in general, you can not sit anywhere without being able to see it. On the plus side for some Newcastle won.

If I could give a 0 star I would. Went in here on a Saturday afternoon for some food with a friend and 3 children. It wasn’t busy at all and we ordered food on the Greene King app. Within 5 minutes of us ordering a Barman came over to us to say that the food would be over an hours wait but we could get a refund at the bar if we didn’t want to wait that long. With 3 kids waiting over an hour was never going to happen. I went over to the bar and the manager processed the refund and advised me that it would take 2-3 working days to come through. I asked if she could pay me back in cash instead and I was looked at as if it was a crime to ask. She said it’s against company policy to give cash back on a card payment. Quick enough to take my money though. Outrageous. We are now on day 4 and still no refund. I have rung twice and both times been told I’d get a call back and nothing. My friend who I was with had their refund back by the 2nd working day. Not even a call back to apologise and update me. The only positive to come from this is that I’ll never step foot in that bottom of the barrel pub again.

Just want to say a huge 'Thank You' to the Jolly Fenman for a lovely Christmas Dinner. This was our first Christmas since losing Dad back in August and we decided to book dinner out - not knowing what to expect. Food was lovely, with the meals coming out at the same time, even though we ordered different, and it was nice to not be rushed at any point, the pace was just right. It was also refreshing to see a manager being so hands on and working as hard as all of the rest of the staff. All staff regularly checking we were OK and asking if they could help which was genuinely appreciated. Thank you all so much, we hope you are able to enjoy the rest of your Christmas Day.

The staff at the pub were lovely. We took our granddaughters 1yr and 3 yrs and Rowan was fantastic as the youngest is dairy intolerant.

Went to the Mulberry restaurant today as visited before and it was lovely. But was very disappointed today, was told we would have half hour wait for food, which is fine but that turned into a hour. Had to wait 40 mins for a drink even though had asked twice. My drink then turned up and looked like it had split. My mum ordered off the gluten free menu and the food was dry and sandwich barely had any filling. I ordered a jacket potato of the vegan menu due to having a diary allergy and my jacket came with dairy cheese on so couldn’t eat it, The potato was stone cold too! I’m not sure if it’s changed hands but when we came two years ago there was so many more options it was so lovely. The menu also had Christmas menu wrote on the front and there was no festive options. I hope that it goes back to the way it was as it used to be so lovely.
