All you can eat breakfast and to be fair it was worth the drive, and the nice big free car park makes it easy. All the food was hot and plenty of choice, their new addition of coated potato cubes were lovely. The place was lovely and clean plenty of room between tables for wheel chairs and prams which was nice to see, big covered tables outside if you have a dog even water dishes spotted around for them. I really want to say I cannot fault the friendly staff or delicious food. Definitely going again.

Worst experience ever, the place looks like it’s not been renovated in 20 years, the chairs are ripped and torn and decor is disgusting. The place looks like it hasn’t had a good clean in a long time. The service was diabolical… waited over an hour for food everything then came in scattered time with more waiting, staff are clueless and management is so disorganised. Ew just never again, if it wasn’t for a birthday meal we would’ve walked out instantly.

place looks a bit shabby outside . Greeted by a man called Mark who was great , explained how carvery worked and made us feel very welcome . Food was so so . Very thin slithers of meat , cauliflower cheese with no cheese flavour 😣, hard as rock roast potato , condiments could have been presented better , I’d go back but not for carvery sorry .

Okay so we thought we'd give this place a go as we are staying at a local caravan park, additionally it's not very often i post a negative review but unfortunately I don't have much choice with this one Firstly upon arrival it took far too long for us to be seated, the queue for service at the carvery was far to long exacerbated by the face that the chef seemed determined to take his time, the quality of the food was not great bland and tasteless, the cauliflower cheese was more like cauliflower sludge the stuffing was drier than ghandis flipflop the meat was dry and full of gristle in all honesty it was not worth the money or the time give it a miss!

No real complaints about food but our starters were brought with our main!! I was having a carvery and advised not to queue until main arrived. When it did I was then queuing for 15 mins whilst my hubby ate his main so we actually ate separately which isn't the point of going out for food together?? Plus a certain group of people jumped the queue at the carvery and not one member of staff was going to speak to them. But I did. They were so rude and pushy. In a nutshell not a great experience. Won't be going again 😞

Everything about this place is awful. The food (pizzas) were dry and tasteless; the staff clearly have had no customer service training; they tried to charge us far too much; we had to wait 45 minutes for our pizzas at a time when there were hardly any customers; the tables and chairs felt dirty and old; the entire place looked and felt unkempt and very badly managed.

Late Friday afternoon, was fairly quiet, took a short while to get served (order at the bar). Didn't have the starters we both wanted, the main I wanted, nor the dessert I wanted. That said, what we did end up with was really good, in fact, I would highly recommend the pizzas. Won't rush back, but if I ever find myself there again I'd happily eat there.

We chose this establishment because it was close to where we had travelled from, had some good reviews and was open when we needed it. I ordered my food and drinks at the bar and sat at our table. We waited and waited for our food and in the end I had to chase it up. Five chefs were behind the carvery counter and when I asked about our meal he assured me it was just on its way. It was another fifteen minutes before our food arrived. Considering the time it took to prepare a "fresh" meal, it wasn't piping hot and the chips were very average, in taste, looks and heat! It seems that this place focuses on the carvery and if you should order from the menu otherwise then you'll have to wait! I'm also surprised that for the number of chefs around, the vegetarian menu is also pretty lacking. As well as having to chase up cutlery due to having starters it was really a really disappointing experience. A great shame for somewhere in such a prime location. PS The only reason I gave three stars and not two is because the young human behind the bar was friendly!

I used to come here all the time, came today for the first time in a couple of years. My goodness the place has gone downhill. Having booked a table in advance and asking for a quiet corner, they put us right by the front door next to an ice cream machine that sounded like a diesel generator. The table was all sticky (Pet hate of mine). Ordered a kids pizza, adult cheeseburger and a carvery. Food was very disappointing, chips had been kept warm and were dry. Pizza was the saddest thing I've ever seen, still feeling guilty for feeding it to my son. By far the worst carvery I've ever seen, one Yorkshire pudding, about 8 mouthfuls of meat most of which was all fatty. Cauliflower cheese was basically in milk, nothing cheesy about it. Roast potatoes were dry and undercooked, mashed potatoes were watery and tasteless. Stuffing was like cat litter.....I left 75% of my plate, it was inedible. None of the salt shakers work as all the salt is damp and clumpy. I left still hungry with a headache from the ice cream machine, will not be going again. Utter waste of money and a Sunday afternoon!! If I could review as 0 stars I would. EDIT - My son has been ill ever since he had the ice cream from here. I can only assume your machine never gets cleaned! Please close this place and get your house in order before someone gets hurt! My son has been violently sick since we left here on Sunday. Could I also have the Stonehouse head office email address?

I always book before going as it can get busy, the staff are always very polite, friendly and greet you as soon as you walk in and speak to you on and off throughout to ensure everything is ok. The majority of us always pick the all you can eat carvery and the children have chicken nuggets, burger or pizza. It’s a hit with all of us! I did mention to a staff member that the roast potato’s looked a little hard (my favourite part!) and they informed the chef straight away, took the roast potato’s in the back and then came back with fresh ones.

Follow up review of the Bells of St Marys as it has been a long time since I have last been. Well what a huge disappointment, cobwebs on the ceiling, men's and disabled toilet out of action, no lights in the womans toilets, no waitress service, went to order food the attitude of the two woman behind the bar was terrible, got told cannot have burger, chicken burgers or pizza due to the fact that they have problems with the electrics. My friend had the carvery which was luke warm the vegetables were not good. I ordered fish and chips with garden peas. Fish and chips were hot but the garden peas were taken off the carvery counter as mixed in with my peas was carrots, mash potatoes. They did not taste nice and looked like they had been reheated and reheated and were cold. I would definitely not recommend at all.

Not sure where to begin, my son had booked a table for 6 for 2.45 4 adults 1 teenager and 1 child however unknown to us at the time of booking another family member had turned up so we asked for a table for seven and he said that the table wouldn't be big enough well he was right there as it was a small round table with four chairs around and they were going to try and squeeze 6 of us around it !!! This would not have been possible, the guy who said there were no other tables available... despite a whole room full of tables down by the carvery and then a table became available seating eight and we asked if we could sit there but they said it wasn't available so a blond haired women said all we've got are these two tables which meant that we had to sit separately what's the point in pre booking ??? the customer service was appalling, and despite what they had said no-one used the table that they said was booked or the other tables that were free when we arrived. So now the customer service gets even worse my grandson had chosen a bottleless ice-cream as his dessert and you had to take ticket to bar to get cup and spoon he waited over 15 minutes to get served as they were ignoring him and serving adults before him so I went up and only then did they take any notice of him!! The area where we were sitting definitely needs a refurb very scruffy. Food was average undercooked veg, mash very watery peas not nice at all, meat nice gravy lovely and food was hot. As you can imagine we won't be back when visiting this part of the country next time

After a bad experience last year we decided to try again. Sadly I will never return. The staff were polite and friendly and pub was clean on arrival. The carvery looked ok. Unfortunately when it was on the plate it was really bad. The beef was grissly and only just cooked. It had no colour on at all, it hadn't been basted. The turkey and gammon were ok. The vegetables were awful although looked inviting. Carrots were crinkle cut but frozen and no taste. The cauliflower cheese looked great but it tasted like water. The beans were tasteless, mashed potato was full of chunks and no taste again. Roast potatoes were thrown in the deep fat fryer. Frozen peas which is the norm. No root vegetables, parsnips, cabbage, broccoli ? The gravy was tasteless. I'm not sure what it is with carverys not just here, but nobody seasons anything. I think the place is understaffed and management seriously need to get this establishment sorted. I've seen so many people come and go here it's a shame as many local caravan and camping sites used to come here and you couldn't get a table. There is no decent carvery anywhere in the area other than the Cookhouse, and that is just as bad. Not tried your normal menu but sadly I won't return. Get a good chef in train your staff up as I think anybody and everybody is sent out to carve up meat and don't have a clue what there doing.

Really hard to write, as young waiting on staff were polite and friendly, but the service and quality of food was not acceptable, we booked a table arrived a little early, shown to a table straight away and advised to order via the app, with a little help from the staff was able to complete order and pay, 30 minute wait for the drinks to be served, vodka and tonic was flat , no ice or lemon, asked waitress how long was wait for food, after waiting 40 minutes for pub grub which is a bit excessive, we waited another 20 mins so a 1 hr wait for food, my food was still frozen in the middle, a large lump of ice In the middle of mac and cheese,not a nice site, husbands burger was only luke warm in the middle, not what you expect after an hrs wait, returned food and requested a refund, which was given without hassle. The environment was dark and dingy, no condiments on the table, windows were grubby. We drove to a Chinese restaurant were our food was served piping hot on hot plates within 15mins and drinks were palatable with ice and lemon.

In a word AWFUL. We pre-booked a table and asked for carb content of one meal as one of the party is type 1 diabetic. Despite the warning they struggled to find any information on the meal when we asked. We ordered food, which eventually arrived an hour and a quarter later, 2 meals were ok, 1 was inedible and one was under cooked with cold chips. The manager gave us a refund, but we were left with a diabetic juggling blood sugars because their meal was cold, stale bread & burgers under cooked. EDIT - Over night we had 3 people complaining of upset stomachs - I’ll leave you to draw the obvious conclusions. But the questionable hand hygiene by the manager in the Gents certainly adds to questions which need answering. On returning home we’d been expecting to manage a diabetic hypo, but instead he was struggling with very high blood sugar levels for which the only explanation was additional unplanned sugar intake which must have come from full fat Pepsi as opposed to the Pepsi Max ordered.

My family and I have been here numerous times over the last 10 years; sadly, this will be our last. We arrived at 18:15 and were told all the carvery meals (in a restaurant predominantly famous for carveries) had sold out. We ended up ordering burgers (other dishes were also not available) that arrived over one hour later. Sadly, these burgers were like overcooked cardboard, and the accompanying chips were child-size portions. The staff seemed friendly enough, but the place is clearly under-staffed, and under-stocked.

Lovely Pub with Carvery and very friendly staff. Ordered on the app and when the beef sandwich wasn't available staff came to the table and offered an alternative. Fast service as it was quiet when we arrived just after the lunchtime rush. Would highly recommend if near the area.

Lovely food and tasty, a bit overpriced for what it was. Was warned that it could take up to 40 mins for food which didn't concern me as I could see they were busy. Only waited 30 mins which was good. Served by a lovely young blonde girl behind the didn't catch her name. But if I'm ever back in the area no problem in coming again

Don't know if it was a 1 off but both me and my wife had turkey and stuffing sandwich. Both were, extremely dry and the stuffing appeared to be scraped from the side, as, was burnt and very hard. Shame because drinks and service were very good

I was able to book online for the same evening ( midweek). We were welcomed warmly, and were impressed by the lovely interior of the pub. Although it is a Marston’s pub, the menu was different to the norm. Everything was made in house, and we loved the choices. My husband couldn’t resist a starter ( black pudding fritters), followed by a steak burger and loved both. I had the chilli, which was also delicious. The home made chips were to die for! Altogether a very good meal and evening. We will be back!

Last minute dinner on Sat evening on the way back from a hike. I had lasagne which was really good and meaty which is great as often restaurants fill it with more veg than meat. Partner had pie and was also happy especially as it was proper shortcrust pastry. Service a little slow given not many tables. They were cleaning bar and other areas, which no doubt needs doing, but should prioritise cleaning plates etc. Overall we'd return of in area again.
