Railway Inn in Gwynedd

Excellent service. Brilliant Landlord. Fantastic locals. Everyone made us feel incredibly welcome. Food was great and a lovely cosy atmosphere. It made our trip, to find this absolute gem of a pub in a beautiful Welsh village. Will definitely be back. Thank you for your hospitality John.

If you are nearby, visit the Railway Inn. Staff are very friendly, beer selection is good, mix of local and national, and the food is great. Just what we needed after a days walking in the hills. Can't recommend it highly enough

Really, really great evening for our visit to Wales. Curry night was lovely. Fresh food made by the landlord (who is a trained chef), perfectly pulled pints and a great atmosphere. John and his team know the meaning of hospitality, couldn't have felt more welcome. There was even a treat for the dog! 5 stars, would give 10 if we could.

Stopped here for sunday lunch...Dinning room is now a pool room,no outside tables,barn falling down, Sunday lunch well sunday something meat needed to be cut with a chainsaw..and veg was mushy,Landloard seemed drunk and didnt care about our complaint,What happened to this pub it use to be a really nice place to go, Now its more like a drop in center

Definitely worth a visit. Just sampled the fish Friday menu, absolutely gorgeous and certainly would recommend 👍 great atmosphere and lovely fire keeping everyone warm.

Called in last night for curry and a pint for just £7.50. Great atmosphere, excellent food and superb beer! The curry was really good... beef Madras, rice, poppadum, nan bread, onion bhaji, samosa and chips. I can definitely recommend a visit!

This is a gem. It has been closed because of the pandemic, but is now recently re-opened. New landlord is very friendly, and his staff are smashing too. Beer is good, and there is a lovely abience. Roaring log fire on one of the lunchtimes we visited. They do excellent Sunday lunches, but you have to book.

The Railway Inn is up for sale and has been for quite some time. I hope someone buys it as we have been going there for many years.

Tonight because of the present situation we had a meal delivered from the pub. It was very good and of good quality. Thank you very much will be using you again and look forward to being back in the pub soon. Jeff & Dors.

Visited twice during our weeks stay in the village. They serve excellent pub food and it is great value for money considering the portion sizes are so big.

15 of us for the Christmas menu. Great service and food well looked after. Good selection of drinks.

Thank you all for your brilliant food everyone in our large party thoroughly enjoyed the food. We all ordered from the Christmas menu. The staff are very welcoming.

Went out tonight as my son had come home for the weekend from Uni and missed his railway meals ..oh boy we weren't disappointed all four of us had a fantastic meal ..burger..liver and onions gammon and the best chicken and leek dish.wasnt a scrap of food left on the plate .

We were recommended this pub in the welcome book of the cottage we were staying in, in Abergynolwyn. We were just staying for the weekend and of the three nights only decided to eat out on the Saturday night. We went over at 6pm. It took at least 5 minutes for the bar maid to actually acknowledge us, no ‘hello or I’ll be with you a minute’. When finally spoken to we said that we would like to have dinner and she said you have to book to go in the restaurant (which we were not at all aware of) not ‘have you booked?’, ‘sorry, we’re fully booked’ or ‘I’ll see if we have any tables free’. I assume the restaurant wasn’t fully booked as it was empty when we walked past the window on the way in and out of the pub. She then said we could sit at one of the tables in the bar area. We chose what we wanted to eat and went to the bar to order. This time it took at least 10 minutes for us to be spoken too. The barmaid was constantly walking to and from the kitchen which appeared to be miles away. People sat at the bar were also commenting on how slow the service was. The food arrived in good time and the waitress was friendly. We had a burger and a beef lasagne. The lasagne was burnt and the burger was very dense. Both served with a lot of chips. Neither of us finished our meals. The thing that annoyed me most of all though was that a family of 4 came in after we had ordered our food and asked if they could order food. The barmaid then said that she would see if there were any tables free in the restaurant. Surprise surprise, there were and off they went into the restaurant. The responses from the pub to negative reviews on here appear to say ‘why didn’t you mention this on the night?’. Well to that I would say that you shouldn’t have to complain about things like this and even if we attempted to we probably would have been waiting at the bar to do so. I don’t like going out and having to complain about things. I guess we just won’t be going back if we visit Abergynolwyn again.

Had Sunday lunch here and it was superb. I had the roast beef with all the trimmings and my husband had

Just had a great family meal at the railway inn. Friendly staff, gorgeous fresh and beautifully Hot food with large portion sizes . Clean and smart looking restaurant. Reasonably priced for the standard and size of the meals. Our only suggestion to the pub was, that the restaurant was too cold, it could do with being a little bit warmer. we did warm up as the meal progressed and the room filled up, it wasn’t necessary to bother the busy staff with this moan. Would definitely return Thank you to the staff for a lovely evening

We stayed for a week in Snowdonia, amazing, we went to a few pubs but this one was by far my favourite! Friendly local people so friendly and the owners very friendly, we had a large puppy but it wasn’t a problem, the food amazing ,

For those who liked pubs in the 1970's, grimy sticky tables and indifferent staff this could be the place for you. For the rest of us, go somewhere else.

We normally go into Machynlleth for our Sunday lunch but the bridge was out again and didn’t fancy the long drive round.

Although the restaurant was fully booked the cosy bar was fine to eat in. Nice good value food from a somewhat simple menu choice. Decent beer. Good outside eating for better weather

We have visited the pub twice while we stayed in the area we thought the fair was reasonable priced although a bit limited in choice.

When last night staff wonderful don't have fish was grey in colour and batter was soggy gone downhill

Really good home cooked food, lovely ale and a great atmosphere. Walking distance from Tal-y-lin railway.

We were looking for somewhere to eat after a long day out and came across the Railway Inn, so decided to stop.

We found this restaurant last week and can’t believe what a find it is. We visited twice in 2 weeks just to check it was a good as we thought and it really is! The staff are great and welcoming. They are happy to answer any questions and have an amazing vegetarian and vegan menu! The portions are great, the food tastes amazing & the desserts are unreal. Especially the jam sponge and Nutella pancakes!

We were there to eat, in July and have no wish to repeat the experience. Furthermore, we are local to The Railway Inn

Lovely home cooked food great service and welcoming atmosphere. Very friendly and attentive bar staff.

Was staying near and couldn’t get in the restaurant on first night so had a takeaway, portions v small and v expensive. I asked for no chips with the fish cakes and was still charged full price! Also visited the restaurant on my stay in the village, if you want healthy food for kids do not go! Only fast food or spag bol! Chef was unwilling to cook a small steak for a child despite this being part of the main menu!

Dropped by after a long trip from the Midlands, very welcome service great value sausage egg and chips, many more choices available two lovely pints of Ruddles bitter. Will call again soon, were here for two weeks.

I think the reviews on here must be from all their friends as my experience in this restaurant was awful. Extremely poor service, didn’t get asked if we needed anything, (we did but no staff available to ask) no steak knife, gristly steak, couldn’t ask for another drink (and didn’t get asked if we needed one). When we asked a question about the menu it all seemed too much hassle for the staff to bother to find out for us. Made to feel uncomfortable for asking and no real answer to the question. Food overpriced for what it was.

Everything good here. Cider and beer both well kept. Meals well presented and at fair prices. Bar staff friendly and owner clearly determined to make a success of the pub. Went three times during 18 day break in area and will be returning when next staying at Fairbourne. Benches outside and dog friendly. The way a pub should be.

Excellent food at good value. Well worth a visit. Eat outside on sunny day or eat in the restaurant. Very friendly service. The views outside and simply awesome.

This gem of a pub was my watering hole of choice for many years when we lived locally. We had to move away, time flies and before you know it years and years have gone by.

The Railway Inn is just what you would hope for from a little village pub. A warm welcome, and great food, with a menu varied enough to please everyone - even the little ones. As two members of our party are coeliac, staff were only too happy to let them know which dishes were gluten free, or could be adapted accordingly.

We have been here several times and always had a good meal, unfortunately we were unlucky when we were here last night. I ordered the fish chips and mushy peas, the fish was well cooked and the peas were good, unfortunately the chips were not up to there normal standard. They were very dry and there was nothing in the centre of them. When we were paying the bill we told the man who I think is the owner. He just said he would pass on our comments to the chef if he did I hope the chef takes notice.

We didn’t book as we didn’t think it was necessary on a miserable evening at the beginning of April, however we were lucky to get the last table in the bar, which was exactly as I remembered it back in the 1980’s. The atmosphere was perfect for a country pub which is so lacking in all the gastro pubs that are popping up everywhere now. The menu was varied without being extensive, and there was a good specials board.the wine was excellent too. We both had vegetarian lasagne with chips and a small but interesting side salad. The pudding ( sticky toffee & butterscotch pudding) was perfect. We chatted to the locals and enjoyed the evening so much we are going back tomorrow. Many thanks.

Went fof mothers day Sunday lunch. Ohh my gosh food was wonderful. Not too much and all cooked to perfection. Definitely a warm and friendly atmosphere and welcome from all staff. Great friendly little pub.

This is what your local should be - welcoming, a crackling fire, good drinks and - non pretentious - freshly cooked food. But do not take my word for it ........go and try The Railway Inn for yourself!

We called in for a meal and a drink. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I had the Gammon Pineapple and Chips it came very well presented on a hot plate. It all tasted very good and would recommend this meal.

We were staying only a few doors away so thought we would pop in here for a pint after walking the dogs.. warm greeting inside and roari g fire to watch the rugby on the telly. Unfortunately we could only sit in the bar with the dogs...gutted!. Still, a nice pint and friendly locals.

This place is a must if you are visiting or staying in the area. There is plenty of choice on the menu to suit all palates and dishes are served with plenty on the plate.

We went for an Autumn holiday and visited here for a birthday meal. We were delighted with the kind and helpful sevice, let alone high quality and generous quantity of food. Top marks all round!

Called in here earlier this week for first time....won't be my last ! The beer was well kept and very good.and the food was excellent and quickly served. The guy behind the bar ( the landlord I think) was friendly and informative when I was asking about the pub history and the area. A brilliant proper pub,with a restaurant too ,and it was quiet busy for a Tuesday. Oh and ask about the very spicy pickled eggs with different chilli levels!! The other customers in the pub were friendly too. A great pub .

I went here with my husband a few weeks ago. The staff seemed rushed off their feet but there was only 3 tables taken!? Starters were quite nice although my husband had prawn cocktail, loads of lettuce and only a few prawns, no lemon, we did try to ask for some but it fell on deaf ears! Main course my husband had chicken covered in cajun spices, quite nice but chicken overcooked so much it was really dry, it was on a bed of iceburg lettuce and that was it! We complained but no apology, just offered something else but I was already half way through eating mine and after all it had taken ages! We asked the bill but noticed that one of the starters had £1 added to it, when we asked about it the waitress said it was the 'till', we mentioned that we had visited a few weeks before and the same thing happened, and we mentioned it then but they obviously haven't done anything about this issue. I wouldn't say they were that friendly when we challenged them on these points but we wont be back.

We called here twice in the last 10 days as we had friends staying with us and knew we would get a really good bar meal. On both occasions we were very happy with the service and the food. All I will say on the second occasion I went I only has a main course as the portions are on the large size.

Well what can i say just been into this establishment with my husband 2 sons and daughter in law no welcome just very curt barman who didnt seem very impressed that we had deemed enter we are based across the road in the beautiful friendly riverside cottage and thought we would use this public house for the week well no thankyou we are from bham and have been in some horrible places but i have to say this was the most unwelcoming place i have ever been keep up the good work!!!!!

Friendly place with basic menu decent cider and dog friendly area. Enjoyed a rustic leek and potato soup. Recommend if in the area

Ate here twice. Both times food was excellent. Proper home cooked meals. Friday night was very quiet and Saturday night was very busy. The quality of the food and service could not be faulted even on the busy night. Would definitely recommend eating here if your visiting the area.

Dropped by on the off chance for a family meal - might be worth booking in advance if possible.

Tried here again after hearing it had changed hands. We booked but could have easily got in the restaurant if we hadn't booked as we were the only two couples dining in there. Most customers were eating in the bar area. Food good although we were disappointed that the Lasagne was not available! I had steak which was lovely - note to the staff perhaps you should offer steak knives as the knives on the table were blunt! Staff busy and a little slow but pleasant enough.

Passed by and stopped on a whim. Was not disappointed, lots of choice on the menu but chose from the specials board. Portions are really good sizes and really filling, tastes like good home cooked food. Highly recommend and will definitely revisit

Just a 10-15 minute walk down a gentle hill from the Talywyn Railway station. The food was tasty, beer well kept, reasonably priced and the staff are great. There is seating outside and water bowls available for dogs.

Went here with my husband a few days ago. Lovely welcome and nice atmosphere. Food was very good and very generous. Would definitely recommend this pub.

This is our second visit to the Railway Inn this summer; the first ended in a minor tent disaster which is obviously nothing to do with the pub, the second ended in nothing more than that feeling of happiness you get after a good feed which was a great deal to do with the pub. On both visits the food (and beer) has been great. Nothing fancy, just good, honest pub grub.

I fount the Railway Inn very hospitable and friendly. The food was fantastic and a very good portion. Will definitely make this pub a priority eating place in future trips to the area.

Came in as a large group of 9, and we sat in the bar area as the restaurant was fully booked. The setting and ambiance was great, and the food was quickly served and really tasty. Well worth a trip

Had a great evening meal in the restaurant with friends and family Beer was good and food lovely the lamb rump was superb Will definitely be back to sample other dishes from the menu

Despite being very very busy upon arrival, understandably as I was to find just how good it is, the staff were very friendly and welcoming. We had to wait a few minutes before being seated at our pre booked table. The menu is extensive. I started with the creamy garlic mushrooms which were really excellent and had the beef lasagne which is home made and I think the best I have ever had. I understand that everything on the menu is home made. The servers were attentive and pleasant. I can recommend The Railway Inn very highly and will certainly return.

When we arrived the bar was very busy we got our drinks and was shown to our table in the restaurant. The waitress brought us a menu each and allowed us time to decide what we wanted. When she came to take our order she told us there would be a delay in bringing our food as they were extremely busy with food orders. I ordered the Creamy garlic & thyme mushrooms with crusty bread for my starter when it came it was well presented and tasted really good. For my main course I ordered the Cod in crispy beer batter with chips and mushy peas. This also came well presented the cod was cooked very well as were the chips my only issue was with the mushy peas which were very dry. I mentioned this to the waitress when we were paying the bill and she said she would pass my comment to the chef.

Called for a lunchtime snack on way through. Uncedrtain where to park but used a parking area opposite the Railway which seemed to be ok. Sandwiches were fresh and tasty. Nice seating outside to the front and side.

Stopped at The Railway on the way through after reading generally good reviews for a Sunday lunch. Nice welcome when we went in, seated promptly, staff seemed to be a bit frantic...maybe a bit short? Anyway, lunch arrived and I have to say it looked disappointing, two tiny and very burnt roast potatoes, a teaspoon of mash, and meat that looked of the vacuum packed variety, uniform shape and thin. There was an excellent selection of veg and that was well cooked. Unfortunatly taste was greatly lacking, the meat tasted of nothing and ditto the veg. We had Eton Mess to follow...and all that I can call that is lazy and definitely not Etom Mess. Pudding bowls full of tasteless squirt cream with a few bits of broken up meringue and a few desultory strawberries on the top. Not good. I wonder if it was the chefs day off as reviews generally seem good. Doubt we will be passing this way again..but we wouldn’t bother with The Railway.

Visited today and had a lovely Sunday lunch. Meat was cooked lovely and plenty extras to make it a lovely meal. The downside for me was the dessert. 3 out of 5 of us ordered Eton mess, and what we got was a bowl full of squirty cream, hidden in there somewhere was a meringue nest and decorated with a couple of strawberries - which is not an Eton mess!!!!

When we arrived at the railway inn I was expecting another drab meal that seemed to be typical of the other pub grub and fried food we had in the Tywyn region but I could not have been more wrong.

I ate here twice on vacation. The lamb shank with mint gravy was amazing, maybe the best I’ve had. It was so good I came back another night and kicked up the difficulty with chicken madras which was also top notch. I would be happy to eat both again!

Had a lovely lunch here last week with a couple of friends. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the food was just what we wanted, a good quality but not overly fancy pub lunch.

We visited here as a large party in the May half term, we had booked a table early and were probably one of the first to order food when the restaurant opened. There is a great variety on the menu to choose from, yes we did wait a little while but in my opinion that is often a good sign of the quality of the food. Once it arrived it was all really lovely and generous portions which was the only reason some food was left. The waiter was really helpful when some people asked to change elements of their meal. Great value for money and an enjoyable and relaxed experience.

The food was amazing! How difficult can it be to make fish & chips? VERY apparently.... for other places! Having had a few bad meals lately in the local area, I almost didn't order the fish and chips but I'm glad it did! It's the best fish and chips by far! In fact we've been there a few times now and never had a bad meal! Love it! My husband had Faggots & chips with gravy and he said it was lovely!

Place practically empty, waited a long while to be served. Five in the party, four had chicken I had sirloin steak which I had ordered well done. It was well presented and looked really nice. Unfortunately the steak was as tough as old boots. I made a complaint to the lad who had served and he informed that in the chefs opinion the longer the steak takes to cook the tougher it will get . I said that was a load of rubbish and however long it took to cook I should be able to eat it. I have eaten here in the past and had no problems , but the place has changed hands , in my opinion for the worse so will not be eating here anytime soon.

One of the few options locally, so it's a relief that it's good (and still good now there are new managers!). Real ale, nice food (and separate restaurant), and a great snug with an open fire! Proper 'local' feel!.

A convenient location, as we were staying in a nearby bed and breakfast. A very friendly welcome from the barman and found a table near the fireplace, which was roaring! Food came out in suitable time and was delicious and well presented. Very generous portions to boot. Great value for money and a friendly farewell to finish. Keep up the good work!

Another lovely meal. Always enjoy visiting this pub when over here for a good hearty meal for a reasonable price. Lamb shank was superb and puddings are excellent.

So pleased the The Railway is still going. They didn't have real ale this time but the bottle beer from the Moose Brewery was excellent and food was first class as usual - hot and tasty. Lovely log fire and friendly people. Always try to call in when we're passing.

Great meal and service for 24 of us at birthday celebration. Would recommend for a large group and really appreciated that owners were happy to put up our decorations and let us take birthday cake. Many thanks for a great night.

Very nice village pub that we were looking forward to having many meals in however for the whole of our stay 1 week the most decent of their lagers was 'off'. and even though it says 'dogs welcome' it wasn't really welcome as much as allowed in one small uninviting and very cold room, there was a restaurant which obviously you wouldn't expect to take your dog in but also a very nice bar with log fire and comfy seats but we weren't allowed in there...so we went a little way down the road to the Cross Fox which is a fantastic pub and welcomed dogs in the bar which had a log fire and lots of people eating in there-spotlessly clean and lots of choice with proper home made food and a great curry night on a Friday, as there were four of us we spent quite a lot of money in there over a few evenings which would have been spent in The Railway Inn, as there was no one in The Railway during the week you would have thought they would have been a bit more accomodating. We got talking to some people who said the food was poor so we hadn't missed anything-and it only improved when you were in the restaurant.

4 hr walk arriving at this cosy pub. Good Guinness always pleasant after walking. Pleasant service. Substantial sandwiches, catering to our needs near the end of service at 2-30. Beef sandwich very nice indeed.

Good range of ales and friendly chat. Good local with a proper welsh atmosphere! Seating is comfortable, but food is limited to bar snacks (at least when I was there). Check it out for yourself if you happen to be in the area.

worst food ive had says homade especially pate it wasnt coming from an experienced chef of over 30 years think the landlady and here partner was very drunk made staff look little kids running around everywhere even there kids i would give it a miss if you want nice dinning go to aberdovey was recomended this place on a stay but from a pub also food didnt taste very fresh either

Spare of the moment while out walking the dog, decided to stop and have lunch. Very friendly little pub. Welcoming both of us and our 2 little furr babies. Offered them water as they could clearly see they had been on a long walk. Couldn't go in the room with the fire but that wasn't a problem as the room as you go in was bright and right next to the bar. Definetly be calling again on another walk. Menu was fantastic plenty of choice and willing to change a few things that we didn't want from it. :)

I try not to write negative reviews but I feel that as a dog owner it is important that you get a good sense of where you can and can’t go. We had been personally recommended The Railway Inn and upon checking with their website found that it was a dog friendly pub, so we went out of our way to visit. Unfortunately the “warm welcome” we had been led to expect was far from it. When we enquiried if we could take our drinks into the cosy snug, we were told a rather curt no. There is only one space available for people with dogs and that can best be described as a starkly lit ante-room between a very nice looking restaurant and a welcoming looking snug. Here the radio blares rather loudly, and quite oddly plays Heart London where you can find out how the traffic is moving on the M25. Quite a juxtaposition to the beautiful and tranquil surroundings of the village of Abergynolwyn. I can’t speak for the food, which did look good on both the menu and the specials board as it didn’t feel right to spend our last night on a long table (the only other table was impossible for someone of 6ft to put their legs under) with our dog in the car and so we left. The ambience at The Railway Inn left a lot to be desired and the reception was continually frosty rather than welcoming. A real shame as this would otherwise be a wonderful spot for people who enjoy walking their dogs in the numerous beautiful surroundings.

We had dinner twice with the family. Great food, the lamb was just amazing! Kids loved it also, and the fire place in the entrance is really nice.

We just need to thank you All at the Railway in making our Christmas Day one to remember. From the owners, chef and staff we really enjoyed the day.

We were on our annual Christmas time off road bicycle ride based around the Snowdonia countryside. Starting in Dolgellau, a perfect halfway point in the ride was Abergynolwyn. I Had a few Facebook messenger chats with the Railway Inn a few weeks before, and explained we might be slightly muddy cyclists by the time we got to the pub. Not a problem at all, and we arranged a table for 10 of us in the bar area. I also had a phone conversation beforehand to confirm our numbers, and what was on the menu. When Sunday December 17th came, it was heavy rain, and our group got absolutely drenched by the time we arrived. We were made to feel very welcome, indoor bicycle storage was made available to us, and a place to hang our soaking wet kit. We were then welcomed into the bar, and started on the first round of drinks. We were really looked after, and even given towels to help us dry off.

Visited for Sunday lunch on a cold but bright day. We chose to eat in the Ingle bar which was very cosy with a welcoming open fire. We chose to have a two course lunch; I chose the beef with horseradish roast dinner followed by syrup sponge with custard while my wife chose roast pork with apple sauce followed by treacle with ginger tart and cream. Both main courses were excellent with tender meat, tasty gravy and appropriate trimmings; stuffing and horseradish with the beef and apple sauce and crackling with the pork accompanied by an excellent selection of perfectly cooked fresh vegetables both roasted and boiled. The puddings were exactly as described and perfect for a cold day. The staff were welcoming, friendly, attentive and efficient.

We called in for a family Sunday lunch and the food and service were both fantastic. The good was cooked and prepared to a high standard and the gravy was exceptional! My little girl was offered a high chair and we were made to feel very welcome and comfortable. Great pub, great staff, great location, great food! We will be back.

We dropped in while on holiday in the area for an evening meal. The food was fresh & very good. The staff were friendly & the teenage kids were happy with the free WiFi. We will return again

We stayed in Abergynolwyn for a week and tried out the Railway Inn on our first evening. We all liked it so much that we returned 3 more times! The food was consistently good and the service attentive and friendly.

We were staying locally and decided to try the Railway Inn as we wanted to try somewhere different to eat. The food was absolutely fantastic and definitely one of the best meals I have had out in a long time. Highly recommend the place. Lovely pub and restaurant and we will definitely return next time we are back

We go to Abergynolwyn on quite a regular basis and love it there. Our highlight - apart from the fantastic walks around there - is always a meal at The Railway Inn. It's a bit pricey for us, but we will have saved up for it, and we know we get a very good meal there. This year we even went twice in a week. Booking is essential, though, as they are very well frequented. Inside, dogs are only allowed in the entry area by the bar, not in the restaurant. The food is yummy, but not excellent, don't expect too much. Portions are good. I had a 10 oz steak with peppercorn sauce. The steak was cooked to perfection, very good piece of meat indeed, but the sauce was tasteless and disappointing. I had to add salt to give it some taste. My hubby had also steak with stilton sauce, and he loved it. His steak was perfect, too. The other meal I had two days before that was ravioli in tomato sauce. It was tasty, but more sauce than ravioli, and too little cheese. Not very fulfilling meal. The salads come with dressing from a bottle, I'm sure, although I can't prove it. The usual french style dressing, which doesn't do anything for me. I usually take my own dressing with me.

Whilst all else was OK, they wanted to charge us £1.00 for using a credit or debit card, which whilst a small amount perhaps, was not acceptable to us. This is going to be illegal from January so hope they change their practice before then!

We had a few days off in our motorhome, so travelled to Abergynolwyn. Popped in for a drink on Wednesday 30/08/17 - choice of 3 real ales + lagers, etc. Booked table in restaurant for Thursday. This is one of the best meals we've had. Well worth the visit. Congratulations to all the staff for making our visit worth while. Will be back in 2018

Popped in for Sunday lunch after seeing some good reviews. Quaint pub and very clean. Choice of meats we had beef and lamb, very big portion with lots of fresh veg and 3 different potatoes. Barman very friendly and helpful, he overheard us talking about a wheat allergy and advised on food swaps including gluten free gravy. Food and beer was very good and a lovely waiter serving food. Would recommend and return.

Just an excellent place to eat !! The food is lovely and the staff are friendly and helpful !! Although it id a busy place it is worth waiting for !! It can be a little wait at busy times

Very friendly staff, lovely atmosphere. The food was delicious and did not have to wait to long to be served. The little village is very pituresque and surrounded by fantastic scenery. We are certainly going to pay another visit.

Supberb. Need to book best sunday meal roast lMb with trimming pluss a delicious sweet all for £10.95Superb meal

We visited here twice during the mid week break. One the first occasion, we had excellent food, beer and srvice in a traditional country pub. The second time was similar but the service was poor as they were busy and seemed to prioritise the locals first!

We visited last wk & were disappointed. The inside is dark & dated, definitely needs a refit & the tables are squashed in the pub area. The barman, presume Landlord was unfriendly & unwelcoming, which was a shame as we had hoped to eat there frequently on our holiday but never went back. We wanted to eat in the restaurant but were pushed towards the pub side instead, presumably as we had young children. We were even made to feel awkward because we had a buggy with us, there was no room for it according to the Landlord - even though we arrived at opening time & were initially the only people in there! We felt so unwelcome my husband even felt he had to nip home with the buggy to get it out of the way!! We would have left but no where else nearby. The food was very average & very overpriced. For a bar meal for 2 adults & 2 small children it was approx £35 & none of us particularly enjoyed it. Disappointing & not family friendly.

Stopped here in the pouring rain for very welcome respite, and a hearty lunch. Greatly enjoyed our visit.

Turned up after a long drive as I've been here twice in the past. Turned up pub empty which at the time of evening 6pm was overflowing each time before this was dead. Landlord was a snotty person. None of the normal pub grub. Under new ownership and food well over priced. It's a pub after all not some posh restaurant. So we left disappointed. In which the guy behind the bar said. 'BYE' In a bad tone. Don't bother with this pub unless u like to pay well over the odds.

Lovely meal last night worth a visit. I had chicken madras and my partner had chicken and bacon in leek sauceGenerous portions and well cookedGood service

Railway innVery friendly service, lovely bar maid. Very good quality ales of  offer. We had the railway inn burger... And subsequently expected just a run of the mill burger. What we got-was actually one of the best burgers we have had in a long while. Very reasonably priced too. Well worth a visit
