Enjoyed a delicious roast beef here. The cask beer, Otter Amber, was well kept and very good. Great service with friendly staff.

Jordan and Jamie are amazing they made sure that we felt comfortable and happy and could not do enough to make sure all the customers were happy. I told them to look around at the people laughing and smiling because of how much hard work they have put in every night they work.

Came here for a meal and drink as wanted to try something new! Had the beef and ale pie which was lovely. Quick service and good quality for the price. There was lovely girl behind the bar with ginger hair which recommended me a gin and i asked for her name. I think her name was sarah and her customer service was great and she was super helpful and the atmosphere in the pub was lovely helped by the staff in the pub! Would definitely come again.

My whole experience here was awful. I ordered Sirlion steak with mash and garlic and mushroom sauce. They didnt have any left so i opted for Rump steak.My dinner was served with chips instead of mash, so was sent back. Everyone else in our party of 5 was eating their food. When my food arrived back, I tried to cut into my steak, which took me some time. A waitress asked if everyone was ok with the food. I didn't answer as i had not started mine yet. The steak wasn't medium rare that I had asked for, it was raw. I sent it back for a second time. I eventually got my meal, took one mouthful of steak and spat it out. I tried another piece and did the same. I also noticed that there was no tomato orrocket, as advertised, on my plate. I had mash, steak, sauce and 2 onion rings, which I gave my mum. Put it this way, it was the mist expensive mash potato I have ever ate. I didn't have the will to complain again. I tucked the steak into napkins and decided to keep it for my dog. I decided to order a pudding as I was still hungry. The first one I asked for had run out, so I had Sticky toffee pudding with extra custard. I started to eat the Sticky toffee and said to my mum it wasn't very warm. I took a second mouthful and quickly spat it out. It was still frozen. I took it to the bar and asked the barman to feel my pudding, he did and was shocked it was still frozen. By then I wanted nothing else. A young lady, who I presume was management came over to offer me a refund. When I told her of my whole experience ,she said she saw me eat my steak, so I pulled it out and showed her it. Clearly a lie. Even offered her to weigh it. Her attitude was disgusting, and she continued to lie. She hadn't watched me at any point as I had a serious Asthma attack which warranted me using my nebulizer and oxygen mask. If she had seen that, she would of asked if I was OK. She accused me of being rude to her members of staff. I asked who, so I could apologise. She couldnt answer. She rapidly made an excuse they were very busy. My daughter and her partner own a bar, restaurant and nightclub in Liverpool and That gets busy without issues, so I know the process and procedures for Hospitality. I got a refund for the pudding, and the member of staff kept apologising. I told him it wasn't his fault and he didn't need to apologise for someone else's error. The whole experience was awful. And for someone who regularly eat there, I will never do again. Shocking experience ever.

The kitchen was obviously busy, so we waited a while for food. But, they were great about it. The food was good. And the bill got better. Thank you? Not going to stick in a low star review...

Lovely local pub with outside seating area. My husband was able to check out the football score which was being played quietly at the top of the garden area which didn't disturbs above who didn't want to watch. Great food at reasonable prices. Only given 4 stars for service as we weren't greated on arrival and struggled to find the food menu. A minor point as service after that was friendly and helpful. A great little pub

3 bar staff behind the bar, only one serving, didn't help that two customers were scrolling through their phones when they were served! bar staff disappeared before eventually coming back to serve me well over 5mins later! I live in.optimism that the service here will.one day improve but after so long I think it is more of a pipe dream. Only plus side tonight is they actually had beer and more than just the one left on.

Went here with a group of 10. Dreadful Christmas meal. My Gluten free roasties were white/ hard/ inedible. No Yorkshire pud, no stuffing, no edible sausage, no gravy. Which left me with 2 tiny slices of turkey, 3 sprouts and about 5 thin slices of carrot. If you think the GF. Meal was bad. My fellow eaters had parsnip the folks couldn't get through, ect ect ect... No option for G.F. pud except children's ice cream. No thank you. The Christmas pud everyone else was eating was a very thin square slice which apparently resembled rubber. The only tasty thing on the menu was my husband's cheese board. That said, the non Christmas food looked delightful. We should have complained but the staff looked frazzled. Got out rather quickly. My advice choose from the normal menu. At £19.99 for an inedible plate of GF food. NOT. Merry Christmas.

I visit Andover often and finally found a great place to eat.. Great atmosphere and staff.. I thought a couple of items on the menu were a bit over priced but most meals were priced well... One small complaint, but it's just me, is I wish staff would clear empty plates off the tables before being asked.. I've waitered in my past and and easy to see when people have finished eating their meals..

Did not appreciate the rude staff sneering at my partner who was trying to breastfeed my son. Food was average at best when it eventually came out. Attempted to change my sons nappy before we left however noticed the changing facilities were nothing more than a mat to put on the dirty toilet floor and to top it all off the toilet was blocked with a dirty nappy (presumably as a result of the overflowing sanitary bin). Will not be returning and would recommend you steer clear, especially if you have Children. Would rate 0 stars if I could.

Great food, slow service however was made aware of this when booking due to several large parties. Not family friendly in the slightest, was made to feel awkward and embarrassed for breastfeeding my son by the two older female members of staff working. I received some awful looks from these ladies & what looked like sniggering and talking about myself behind the bar. I was feeding discreetly as I’m not very confident as am only 8 weeks in and was dining with my dad and brother. I felt very stressed, and embarrassed due to these ladies that I took my son out in the heavy rain to feed him in the car. The baby change toilets were disgusting, they were very dirty, bin overflowing, nappy sat in the toilet and just a mat to change a child on the toilet floor. However we did receive good service from the young waiter, very courteous and polite young man, nothing was too much trouble. Won’t be eating here again as I’ve worked/working hard to gain confidence feeding my son, I don’t need two old ladies making a young female feel awful.

I’m sorry, the first time I have had a Chinese takeaway in almost a decade and was so looking forward to it. The prawn toast was over cooked and had hardly any prawn in it. Whilst the fried dumplings tasted ok, but were so soggy they were falling apart.
