Awful! After waiting well over 40 minutes for food we were very disappointed! Ordered the Chicken schnitzel Caesar salad and lamb rump and mini pie duo. Chicken smelt and breadcrumb tasted like fish, croutons were pure grease, 3 shavings of Parmesan and no onions. I sent it back, explained and said been waiting over 40 minutes for it! Offered a dessert, declined! The lamb rump and mini pie duo should be called mini overall, we did have a voucher but it’s meant to be £21.99. Meant to be roast potatoes with rosemary and garlic but were awful and barely any gravy and lamb quality was poor. Didn’t bother complaining about that as just wanted to leave so spent £50 for nothing with drinks which were expensive too. I got a refund for the Caesar salad but I think they should have offered more after such a long wait and the fact that we went for a meal and it was ruined. I wasn’t risking a dessert, the wait again or poor food! Shame as pub looked lovely! Won’t be coming again!

Booked for 4 adults, 2 teenage girls, and a 14 month old puppy as it was Bank Holiday Monday and wanted to get somewhere booked. We had been for a long walk around Sutton Park and we had come from Northampton and Shrewsbury so we were ready for a sit down, a drink and definitely some food. We were sat very quickly and explained to that we could order at bar or via the QR code. We decided to order at bar as there were a few adjustments to the meals we needed to do. Fantastic service, quick and hot food which you don’t get in a lot of restaurants/pubs these days. Friendly staff all around and came away full and happy. Thank you. When next in the area we will be back.

Loved the pub, big car park, nice outside space. Menu is pricey but the meals didn't reflect this. I had the trio of lamb and couldn't eat the 3 chunks of lamb on my place, couldn't even cut them, it was obv looking at the chunks of meat they were poor quality. The mini pie was nice but nothing else was quality. I tried to have some water off the bar but the tap wouldn't work. Real shame as lovely pub.

Pleased to have a “mains” 30% voucher” but poor experience; stood around on arrival, although menu listed Scampi & Fish & Chips neither available! Garlic Bread inedible & beans with Sausage & Mash tough as not cooked! Why not a Chefs check on meals before issue.? Small gesture made with price but place to visit not recommended.

The atmosphere was electric, the playlist was full of bangers, and the whole event was just brilliantly put together. Huge shoutout to Alys and Adam—your energy, humor, and throwback vibes made the night unforgettable. You both kept the crowd laughing and dancing between numbers. Can’t wait for the next one—highly recommend to anyone who loves a good night out with a nostalgic twist!

Very disappointed booked table for 7 on arrival no one seemed to realise we had booked nothing ready for us had to wait half an hour for table to be ready. Seems they need more staff. My party and myself were going to leave. But table ready. By then we just stayed. Food fine. But someone needs to oversee the arrarrangements re bookings. I will go back to see any improvements

Firstly I would like to say the food is lovely, although they did miss the pork & apricot stuffing with my pork roast, it was still nice. However the service is shocking. I had booked a table for Mother’s Day at 6:30pm for 7 people, we had arrived on time to be told to wait at the bar for 5 minutes while people finish their desserts off which we didn’t mind, at first, until 25 minutes go by and we’re still sat at the bar. Very disappointed. If you have guests booked for a time slot, you should let the other guests know what time they have to be off their table for. There weren’t many big tables either and had assigned guests to tables for a reason due to it being Mother’s Day. So I, as well as many other people I assume, would expect the table to be ready for when they get there. I will not be coming back.

Thanks so much we’ll be back!

Me and me friend came as we usually go four oaks pub and wanted a change, worst decision ever! The food took 40 minutes to come out despite there being barely anyone here, I paid £15 for scampi and chips, I counted and was given 8 chips and 7 scampi bites, absolute joke. My friend ordered a burger and chips, along with halloumi fries (£7.50) and his bill came to £23, he was given a fair amount of chips, but his burger was burnt and he was given 4 halloumi fries in total, costing just under £2 each holloumi. Absolute rip off, food quality was average at best, don’t come here. Do yourself a favour and get a better meal at crown or four oaks pub!

We had the most expensive thing on the menu. The meat was good (although my wife's lamb was overdone) but it came with potato cubes that were literally like cardboard. When we told the staff they said sorry and that maybe they'd been left in the oven too long (I would think since lunchtime at least) and that was it. No offer of complimentary chips or something. Bizarrely veg also not available as a side. Wouldn't eat here again. Nice place otherwise.

We had a family on Friday, payday weekend. Expected it to be busy but arrived at 7.20 to a relatively quiet bar and restaurant. Table booked at 8.15, we had a lovely table and we’re not rushed at all by Alys and George who were attentive but no in our faces. Really good service and we were not rushed at all. Food arrived, mixed grill, sirloin steak, duo of lamb and steak pie. All plates were superb and quality and quantity were great. Definitely go here again and would recommend it. Such a shame it was quiet, ( maybe a one off) but if not people are missing out. Thanks for a great night.

Absolutely disgusting service from Aisha over the phone. Discussed a booking for Mojitos for an event. A price was agreed and availability was confirmed for the date verbally over the phone. Nearer the event I contacted her to make sure all was okay with the booking - to which I was told they do not remember this conversation ever happened and they would get back to me. I rang a few times after & had messaged however no response. Disgusting customer service. Avoid for booking. Good job I did not rely on this pathetic service.
