Wow, this place is a real find!!! First visit ever on a chilly Sunday and we had an extremely warm welcome and were greeted with the smell of a log fire. Our food was really first class. Best roast we have had in years. Special thanks to Evie for being a brilliant waitress, and looking after us all. We will definitely be back 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Excellent lunch in the dining room, much more restaurant than pub, the food was very well presented and to a high standard. Always disappointed by the real ale offering in the bar however, what about some Harveys best from Sussex rather than a brew from Cornwall.

We had a family meal for 8 here. All enjoyed it. The a la carte menu was excellent. I had the duck, which was the most perfectly cooked, tender pink duck I have had in a long time. Accompanying mushrooms, vegetables and Dauphinoise potatoes were delicious. Desserts were delicious and beautifully presentedz. Service was friendly, professional and efficient. This is a really good gastro-pub. Bar staff were excellent too. Recommended. Thank you!

Every time I've been there the food has been truly a la carte. I once ordered a burger for my daughter and, I don't know why, it was a little burnt. They immediately admitted their fault and asked us to replace it. My daughter being 5 years old didn't have the patience to wait for another so my wife and I shared with her. In the end, I received the bill without the burger. That didn't stop me from giving 5 stars and going back there. Recommend...😊

This Gastro Pub serves excellent food of the highest quality. It's worth paying just a little extra knowing that it has been cooked to order and not 'pinged'

Had a very good Sunday lunch Generous portions and imaginative vegetables. Huge Yorkshire pudding! Children portion is also quite big! We were celebrating my sister in laws birthday slightly in advance as I'll be away. The pudding selection is great and the pistachio souffle is fantastic! My only small gripe is that the 2 hour slot is a bit tight. Not my first visit. The wider menu is also very good.

We come here specifically for the Sunday Roast, best roast beef in town with lots of well cooked and tasty trimmings! My husband always asks for an extra portion of beef as it's that good! For me 4 slices of roast beef is more than enough. Nice ambience / decor and friendly staff always willing to help. Prices aren't cheap but the quality of the food is high that's why we keep coming back!

Went in for a light lunch but the choice was limited as all heavy meals. So decided on the burger. When told it would arrive pink I was very confident it would arrive pink ……. Presentation was nice but found both burgers grey and not pink at all and somewhat tasteless / lacking seasoning. Although we did have a lingering garlic taste after we had finished. Very disappointed :-( On a happy note the scotch egg starter was yummy as was the ice cream, also service was lovely. But a shame an establishment like this could not serve up a simple burger.

We visited the British Queen at Locksbottom on a Saturday evening and had an excellent experience. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was absolutely excellent. Wonderfully presented and incredible flavours. We had a Virgin Experience voucher where you are limited to a sample menu of 3 options per course, but these options are the standout best sellers from the main menu, so this was not a problem. Good cocktail choice and options for alcohol free. Good veggie options. We will definitely go back.

This is our go to place for family meals as the food, staff and facilities are great. So went for father's day. Bit disappointed that as regulars we had to pay a deposit and only got a 2 hour slot but appreciate why. Food was excellent as always the lamb special was stunning. But please do not offer me a complimentary drink for father's day then add it to the bill! Simple error and glad I checked as I usually have no problems here. But will we be back? Of course!

Really lovely pub with lovely staff and excellent food and drink. Lack of parking is mildly frustrating but a star is lost due to the fact they won't accept cash payments. We are way past covid and the handling of money shouldn't even be a concern anymore. Not accepting money for payment by default is just baffling and hopefully it gets addressed.

We spent a lovely evening at The British Queen restaurant. The summer menu offered a variety of choices. I had the Pea and Broad Bean salad which was not only very pretty to look at but also delicious! My husband had the Gravadlax. For our main I had Trout and he had the Bream. For dessert I had an amazing Pistachio Souffle. He had the cheese. All in all the meal was delicious from start to finish, supported by excellent customer service from all the staff. I have lived in this area all my life and feel very lucky to have such a wide selection of good restaurants within walking distance of my home. I would highly recommend The British Queen up there as one of the best.

I haven't been back here since the change of menu and was greatly disappointed. My friend and I both had the pie and were both up last night with stomach pains. My friend had the fish dish which was only a child's portion and she had finished her meal in a minute. She left hungry. The restaurant left the front door open all night and we were cold throughout the meal. We were all greatly disappointed.

Had your Sunday lunch today. Was average. Think these were the worst roast potatoes I have ever had, barely cooked and very pale. Beef tender but not pink. Yorkies and vegetables really nice. Bottomless sides but waiting staff don't offer them, we were all finished our food before they came to our table and we had to ask for them. Desserts were good.

We went for lunch and Iam afraid to say for me there wasn’t loads of choice on the menu. What we did have tasted very average I had the burger it arrived overcooked and very dry and come with bacon and chesse but they didn’t melt the cheese on top of the burger which I had to send back (never serve a burger with a lump of unmelted cheese on it) My partner had steak and Ale pie with mash tasted good but pretty small in size and 2 table spoons of mash in a tiny bowl that a baby would eat out of with no veg it was a very small portion. Service was good and the pub is cozy would I go back NO not with food like that put in front of me.

Visited with a large group of family. The staff were all excellent, polite and swift. They took my gluten allergy seriously and announced each dish as gluten free which was really reassuring. The children’s meals were great and brilliant value. The place was spotless inside and so were the toilets. The roast beef was to die for and everyone enjoyed their meals. The only thing I’d say would give it 100% for me would be to get a bit extra on the roast dinner plate for gluten free, as you miss out on yorkies which looked great and cauliflower cheese. Or in a perfect world, could they make a GF version?! It’s so easy to substitute gluten free flour in cheese sauce and I make and free GF yorkies to use as and when. Otherwise I’d give this place top marks, excellent for a meal.

If you want to be judged this is the place to go. You have to ‘fit’ their clientele to be served. Absolutely disgusting. This comment is coming from a pub landlady whose landlord partner entered the pub and was told ‘not today mate’. We were actually contemplating eating here at some point but won’t be going back now if that’s how you treat customers. Be better!

My friend and I visited last night and they had ran out of lots of food and wine options. Three of the starters we wanted weren’t available and four of the mains had also ran out. The waitress mistakenly gave us the wine list meant for staff- at the top was written ‘sell sell sell! Don’t sell based on food parings, base on price’. Many of the wines were also unavailable so it was a frustrating meal as we ended up ordering food and drink that we didn’t really want lol. We won’t be returning, which is a shame as this used to be a great pub!

Can't fault the food but the chef refused to serve ANYONE in the restaurant extra cauliflower cheese, never heard anything like it in my life. Wasn't even allowed to pay for an extra side of it. Wouldn't have asked but the portion I was given was tiny. I left feeling very confused, it's not a rare dish from the far corners of the globe to hand out an extra portion of... Also I asked for thinly sliced beef, it came chopped up in tiny pieces akin for an eight year old, wasn't a massive issue but wasn't sure if he was taking the mickey. Manager did apologise & young waiting staff friendly enough, but the day was done by then, asked for extra roast potatoes and that wasn't an issue though so even more confusing. Also £15.45 for a single G&T & a pint, very steep. Mayfair pubs charge less. Food was good but overall have to say average and drinks are super expensive.
