This is my Local (after work and weekends) and Tuesday/Sunday will always be, but object to being served on Monday teatime by 14 years old children, not the way i was brought up - sorry but Honest opinion 🤷‍♂️

Food not an option. Very poor management, won’t be going back even though been going for years. Booked a private function, general customers came in and weren’t kept out completely ruined the party. Avoid.

I visited here over Christmas... I was greeted by the landlady who is such a lovely woman would do anything to ensure my visit was a good one .. Lovely bar staff .. All of them made our night dancing behind bar obviously enjoying working and it sickens me that a previous review stated it is a drug den with lock ins etc which from my experience is horrible false allegations and could ruin someone's character because of someone's grievance with the place and the people in there " locals " don't like it ?? I personally spoke to a few of them and they absolutely adore the landlady and how much she has turned the pub around from the previous owners who were always drunk at bar shouting obsenitys to customers as I came in last year and hated it I now will defo be back well done

I wouldn’t go to this place if someone paid me the staff are fantastic always polite and never waiting long for a drink but what I think was the landlady as I couldn’t tell due to to her having what looked like a tracksuit on and a cap which we saw a notice saying no caps or hoodies allowed Friday Saturday nights was drunk sat at the end of bar she got really loud swearing I over heard her tell someone to F off I came with my husband on a Friday night to see what the karaoke was like as was told it was good there was not one person in the lady singing was brilliant may I add but I will not go in there again I was disgusted with what was coming out of the landlady mouth how she was speaking to customers and also staff was disgusting I asked 1 of the girls on the bar was she ok and she said just leave her she’s ok the landlord I think his name was Mark was lovely very polite was really welcoming towards us but me and my husband was horrified of how the lady was acting in front of customers and staff we had two drinks and left and will not go in there again

Me and my family went in one Friday night for a drink. After walking into the pub, we realized that the two owners were drunk and continued to drink until closing. Outside it says it serves food when it doesn’t. It’s £1.00 for a bag of crisps instead. The staff used to drink behind the bar except a young girl called Anna who refused to drink an alcoholic drink and had blackcurrant and water. She was the best server as she was polite and gave really good customer service, while the others asked “what do you want to drink”. I was at the bar and saw someone set a tab up on a piece of paper from the card machine and order double house gin and put it on the tab. At the end of the night, we watched her walk out and not pay for the tab. I asked the lady behind the bar at the end of the night why she didn’t pay it and they said because she works here. I asked for her name and they said Kat. Me and my wife went into the pub the day after and the lady who didn’t pay for her drink was working with Anna. We had a couple of drinks and was ready to go as it was closing time. I then saw kat pick up what looked like her tab and put it in the bin. I have been also told that people do drugs in the pub. I also know that the vodka and gin are from Iceland because that’s where I get mine from. Absolutely terrible, the owners can’t run a pub and the owner is two faced and slags everyone off.

New landlord/landlady. Trying really hard to please customers in a clean and tidy pub. Well kept beers, but not much choice of craft beers. Good selection of other products. As an older couple, the only problem we had was unruly kids running about the pub, but only until 8pm (ish). Entertainment is reasonable with quizzes, Friday disco or occasional tribute acts. Access is good for all and limited parking is free with additional nearby street parking.

Needed somewhere nearby on our journey north and just went for the nearest available pub. Wasn't expecting much from recent reviews but we were pleasantly surprised. The pub looked cosy inside, service was friendly and prices very reasonable. Our lunches were fresh, plentiful and tasty. Couple of decent beers too. No complaints!

Disgusting!!!!!!!!!...The young bar staff are incompetent, rude the management are unreasonable and disgusting. I wanted to buy a bottle of water so i could feed my 6 week old baby girl and wouldn't serve me because my money was torn. I wouldn't go back if you paid me to. And having fitted the flooring in there i have seen where they keep the food and prep it and is why i asked for a bottle of water because I would let my dog drink from or eat from anything that come out of that kitchen!.!!!!!!!!!!

We visited the previous month and there were a few of us and it was nice food for the money. However when we visited this time, the food wasn't as good. Myself and my friend ordered the steak and both were extremely salty and we didn't enjoy it at all. Maybe a one off but be prepared that they don't always have the children's meals available, for example the children wanted pizza but they'd not got any left. Previously they wanted chicken nuggets but ended up with fish fingers instead.

This pub has much improved. The recent renovations make it a warm and friendly pub. Pity the toilets aren't up to scratch like the rest of the areas. They do a very enjoyable lager and blackcurrant and a decent pint of beer. The food is value for money and I can highly recommend the all day breakfast.

Visited with family who live in the area for a Sunday carvery. Staff polite and friendly and a clean pub area. Carvery itself wasn't packed with flavour in my opinion, there were 4 meats out but you can only choose 2 to have on your plate, only veg on offer was carrots, garden peas and cabbage. Ok overall but wouldn't necessarily come back or recommend.

I am absolutely shocked at the food , everything on the deck was dry . It looked like it hadn't been freshened for at least a couple of hours. The Brussels sprouts was hard, the cauliflower cheese was just mush the mash was just slop so I asked the man at the back off the bar if there was any fresh roasts as the ones on the deck was rock hard . So he went to get someone from the kitchen to bring some up which took ages then too top it there wasn't any gravey ! . So I just went and sat down and by the time I did my food wasn't hot . I just ate the little meat I had been given 2 small slices of gammon and 1 small slice off beef . So so disappointing if I had booked my Xmas day dinner with these from what I had today I most definitely would have asked for some of my money back and cancelled without any doubt! . From what I saw from what I think was the management couple at the back off the bar there was very little atmosphere in the place . Come on stonegate you need to sort what was a brilliant eatery but not now ...

We ordered from the festive menu and I was disappointed. I have the pork which was stringy and I could not chew it. I ordered a side order of sprouts at an extra cost and was surprised to discover they were frozen sprouts, I expected fresh given the price. My friends had Turkey and a veg option and were satisfied with their meals.

Returned after a great afternoon tea last year. Not as good Im afraid. Sandwiches were quite boring and the meat ones needed a pickle of some sort. Cakes were ok but again nothing special and the Bakewell slice needed cream or icing.. Id paid a £30 deposit months before and was surprised that it wasn't taken off the bill but told it would be returned to my account, just not sure when.. We paid for afternoon tea with Prosecco, asked if we could buy the remaining bottle, no problem but looking at the bill they charged us for a full one. Also which is a pet hate of mine put on a service charge which I refused.. Sorry but not going again...
