Visited a friend in the area for the weekend, stopped in for a few drinks and a breakfast. The staff here are absolutely amazing, so friendly. Food was great and a perfect pint of Peroni or 3!! Highly recommend! I must mention the assistant manager Donna she is a real asset to your pub. Also Rachel, Chris, Laura and Harvey who I met during my visit a great team! I look forward to visiting again when I’m next in the area.

Came here for a meal with my family, food came out hot and tasted just as good as it looked and with the weekly deals it was a steal for a quality steak. We were looked after by a lovely lady named Jess and made sure everything we needed was sorted.

Spacious, clean and tidy. Efficient clear-up. Friendly but not intrusive staff. Plenty of seating, inside and out also guilty smokers' corner! Wide range of choice on menu. My husband chose steak which was juicy and thick. My son had chicken korma and he loved it. I had steak-and-ale pie which was so enormous that I could only manage about half of it (son finished it!). Rich gravy and good quality steak pieces. Good range of alcohol-free drinks. Would recommend and will go back whenever we are in the area

The tandem is a great pub to go for a really nice meal there is a big garden and you can even see the trains go past out the back garden I would book a table here as it gets really busy, The food is good just how you like it and if there is anything wrong the staff will be happy to fix the problem with no fuss at all.

We stopped going to The Tandem a year or so ago because we go out for a meal as an impulse and it was almost too busy to accommodate walk ins and if you tried to book there would not be a free table for a few hours. So we thought for once we would plan ahead and book. The 1st red flag was the car park was empty... on a Saturday evening. Lots of signs with "Booking Only" everywhere, that is inviting. I walked into the gents toilets, and all the urinals were out of order. The 2 remaining toilets stood in puddles of urine. Lovely. We got a table. This once buzzing restaurant had 3 tables of people. The rest were empty. We all decided what food we wanted from the menu, went to the bar to order. Slush Puppy Machine was out of order, so grumpy kids, the soft drink machine was out of order, grumpier kids, and grumpy adults. Ordered the food after making some changes because they did not have everything available on the menu. When the food did turn up, it was OK. However, some of the portions were a bit stingy.

My food was fine (gammon and chips) which is why I’ve left a one star, otherwise I wouldn’t have even put that. My partner ordered a burger and chips, upgraded to salt & pepper chips but what came was OVERLY powdered seasoning which was inedible without a ton of mayo. The pina colada was a glass of milk with a shot of rum. Service- when we came in there was one young girl behind the bar, another young girl just sat at a table uninterested. No one came over to see if our food was okay or if we wanted anything else, and on our way out of the pub there was NOONE to be seen. Really poor for a Saturday night. Won’t be returning.

We often come to Tandem for lunch or dinner. We often get greeted by extremely lovely staff who are extremely helpful and patient. We been coming her for a fair few month more regularly due too how lovely Val, Donna, Katie often are. We built good friendships with the staff due to their friendly approach and they are extremely supportive and helpful with our daughter who has extra needs🥰 Hand down 5 star reviews every time we come in!! Never fail to disappoint. Alway recommend ‘the Tandem’ to our friends or family and always come here on special occasions. Extra plus : food is always yummy even with out awkward changes too the food.

We really enjoy coming to this restaurant and the food has always been great as is the atmosphere. Today I have phoned to book a table to be on the safe side for a table for 12 as my mum is going home to Norway to be told that they couldn’t seat us due to having another big party in, I asked if we could sit on 2 tables as a 6 and a 6 but again I was refused to this too. They clearly don’t want our business which we are really disappointed in…….moral of this story is if you want a table for a large group book as soon as you can to avoid disappointment.

Well, TheTandem has gone downhill. We arrived there on Saturday evening the stench that greeted us when going in the front door was awful. On further investigation we realised that is was coming from the toilets which are just inside the entrance. Staff were pleasant enough but my brother did say that his IPA tasted off. The food was very poor, was supposed to be chicken but distinctly tasted of fish (lunchtime fat I guess).Sorry I wont be recommending or returning again until I hear that there have been improvements .

There were 6 of us for lunch we all ordered 3 courses. The pub was very sparcely decorated for Christmas basically like they couldn't be bothered. 2 of us had Christmas menu. I had peppered mushrooms on brioche which was lovely, followed by Christmas dinner, roast turkey etc, vegetables tasted terrible like soap powder, turkey not much better and pig in blanket hard. I had christmas pudding bakewell for pudding that was good My husband had pigs in blankets to start, good portion about 8. Then steak with shrimps, tough as old boots, cheesecake for pudding good. The others had tortillas which were homemade and looked amazing as were the burgers. Shame as this was a very hit and miss meal, price was good but quality not always so

I tried the soup of the day and a courgette side dish, and both were simply amazing. The soup was rich and flavorful, perfect for the season, while the courgette side was cooked to perfection, full of fresh taste and well-balanced seasoning. The service was prompt and attentive, and the atmosphere was relaxed, making for an enjoyable experience overall. Everything was well-prepared and exceeded expectations. Will definitely return—an excellent experience.
