The Bull Inn in Rugby

Great local pub with a really good atmosphere and lovely licencees. The ceaser salad was to die for especially the dressing and my friends hunters chicken was just as lovely. All in all we had a great visit, so much so that we were back the next day for another drink!!!

Lovely food, great service and a warm welcome to the kids, 6 of us went for Sunday lunch, really really nice and we’ll definitely be back.

Terrible food and service. Chicken was burnt. Nachos were late and didn’t have all ingredients on. Wasn’t asked if food was ok. Offered to be taken off bill but had already paid!

At first the website said it was closed but times may change on a bank holiday . But there should be more information when it's a bank holiday . Had a lovely steak pie homemade with mash and peas very tasty and hot ,price ok . The other person had burger home made looked very tasty ,but burgers where still pink inside . It was sent back and they did give us another meal freshly cooked . Staff very helpful and friendly would do anything for you . Place lovely and clean and done out very well .

First time visiting in several years. Booked for a Sunday roast. Good choice of meats and liked having the option on portion size. Food was very good and service was friendly. Dog friendly too!

Ended up in The Bull enroute North - simply because we were hungry and it was the closest place! It was a joy to walk into a local pub that was actually buzzing and full of people. We got a warm welcome form the landlord and were quickly directed to a free table. The food was good and the decently priced :).

We've wanted to visit this heart of the village pub for sometime, and today we got the chance. We were a party of 4 vegetarians so we were a little apprehensive about the menu choices. 2 of us opted for the Vege Sausage and Mash but changed the mash to chips, added an egg. So we had Vege Sausage, Egg and Chips. We had no issues and the meals came out lovely! My wife had the beetroot risotto and the other had Mac N Cheese as a main. All of the meals were piping hot and of a good quality. The service, music and atmosphere were also superb. We will definitely be back. If you've not been here, you really should!

Credit where credit is due, I have eaten here twice in the past week and the food is exceptional, a true credit to everyone involved.

This place has recently had a refurb and new management. We called in for lunch mid week. The staff are very welcoming and attentive and can't do enough for customers. We sat by a roaring log fire in the snug. My friend and I opted for macaroni cheese each with fries between us. The mac was the best, freshly cooked (the landlady apologised for the wait as the chef was cooking the pasta!) The fries were chunky and enough for two. This, with two soft drinks came to £18 but was off the "sides" menu. Other dishes e.g. Fish and chips £17.95 off the mains menu are a bit more expensive. We enjoyed our meal, others eating were having Valentines meals which looked very special. Recommended.

Tasty Sunday roast like your Mum or Nan would make! Food delicious. Presentation could be improved but who cares. Also a great choice of traditional puddings. While family thoroughly enjoyed. Toddler welcomed and well catered for - good kids menu and food brought to table before adult meals. Service friendly and efficient.

Visited on opening night and the new owners have done a fantastic job! The inside looks great, a well needed refresh, and it has great beer options! Look forward to eating here soon!

Walked in at 9pm to be told they were shut . Website Said 11pm . I asked why the door was open ? He said he thought he locked it . Obviously not ! Rude .

I don't think I have ever had a better Sunday roast, and the value was stupendous. We had 6 types of vegetables with it. The roast pork was just fabulous. Everything was in fact, and to top it all the young people who served us were all lovely. We don't come from the area but I think people in Clifton on Dunsmore are very lucky indeed to have a pub like this available to them, I hope they give it loads of custom and that it is still there next time we are passing through!

Great food Lovely service .Have not been for several years .Will come again .Cool in the pub on the hotest day of the year

Lovely pub, but what a lovely greeting by the young lady with great tattoos and young chap whose doing well for his third shift. Made to feel welcome and definitely be back. Think you need a photo menu as we changed our order after seeing a salad delivered to the table next to us

Went twice last week, first time no food , second time rang ahead . Yes they are doing door until 9pm, arrive at 7.15pm , not doing food as chef has left, you can’t make it up. This pub seems to be missing a trick as they were busy so could make plenty off food orders. It feels a bit chaotic and our experience was poor as a consequence

Visited The Bull for a lunch catch up with friends. As it was quite hot we all opted for salads. Mine was cheese salad, husband had Ceasar salad, another had chicken Ceasar salad and the fourth was steak salad. We shared cheesy chips on the side. Proper chips and the salads were amazing! Freshly prepared and didn't skimp on ingredients. Washed down with beers, Thatchers Gold cider and good natured bants with the delightful hosts! Sat in the garden but had a quick peek inside to see comfy settee zones and tables elsewhere for dining. Had a good vibe to the place and will be back. Thanks guys. J&K.

Having spent over an hour jammed in a 3 mile M1 diversion, my wife and I decided to leave the motorway and look for a local pub to relax with a drink and a bite to eat. After driving through an unattractive industrial estate we drove into a small village, saw the Bull Inn and pulled into the spacious car park to the rear. Walking in through the rear door it felt as though we were stepping back into the 70s. No frills, but clean and welcoming. This is not a chain pub which has become a restaurant. This is an old fashioned “local” which serves excellent food. We were made to feel at home by the family staff. The hand pulled ale was well kept and there was a good selection. The food menu was VERY extensive and looked good. We just ordered sandwiches and sides, which did not disappoint. Very tasty, good sized portions and a very affordable price. Loved it.

Ended up in the Bull because no other pubs were serving food. It was a disappointment. The beer had a disinfectant taste and the food was poorly cooked and presented. Maybe a burger and chips would have been less challenging for the kitchen and more successful. I won't be going back.

After seeing The Barn kitchen were running the kitchen we had to visit, we had previously had their burgers at pop up events and loved them.Have been on several occasions for burgers and Sunday roasts. Can’t fault the food, always tasty, good portion sizes, value for money.The pub itself is lovely, village location, well spaced tables and chairs to allow for social distancing and the staff friendly. We have been when there have been singers on and even some Disney princesses for those of you with children. Worth a visit!

I have recently started visiting this little Gem of a pub as I am a local. I had a Sunday lunch recently and all I can say it was fantastic it was a good size portion and all freshly cooked. The lady behind the bar is called Ljndsey is a true asset to the company and one of the nicest people I have ever met. I will happily continue visiting this great pub and enjoy the ambience.

Last minute decision to eat out. Firstly have to praise the staff who were attentive and pleasant. The lunch was just about OK but the gravy was a major disappointment, thin and tasteless. Mashed potato decent consistency but sadly luke warm. Will not be returning unless they substantially up their game.

Special Valentine meal advertised. Originally said 13th to 15th. I rang up and booked 13th, stating I was booking for the Valentine meal. We arrived, said we'd booked for the Valentine's meal and the lady at the bar took our drinks order and said we could sit where we liked. When she returned with the drinks she said the special meal was only on 14th, 15th. and 16th. When I booked, on 11th I was not told the meal on 13th was not going to be the Valentine special. We were disappointed, but tired and hungry so ordered from the regular menu. I asked for Liver and bacon, only to be told they weren't doing it any more. So I had a steak (expensive), which was OK, and my partner had Lasagne, which was dry and lacking in sauce. He was surprised when he came to pay the bill to find he'd been charged £2.50 for chips, which he'd been asked if he wanted. He'd assumed this was an option, not an extra. He would not have ordered chips if he'd had realized they were an extra. This turned out to be an expensive meal considering what we'd had and we won't be returning. I commented on the facebook page, but the comment was deleted and no response was received.

Awful food, potatoes lumpy and cold, Yorkshire puddings insipid , pre ordered a meal then was told that they hadn’t got it!!!

The food was a disappointing catalogue of major errors, from cold twice cooked oven chips (22 in total as a portion), onion rings which oozed with grease, microwaved bullet peas (all 36), rib eye steak which was more than half fat, over cooked chicken, powdered mash and Cumberland sausage which was actually 3 over cooked pork sausages all topped off with a complimentary desert which contained a hair. I will say the staff and service was excellent and explained clearly that the venue is in transition of management, and changeover of kitchen staff which are addressing the issues with the food (and as such did not charge for food). Fingers crossed they get it right soon, as the place could (should) be a gem.

This was one of our favourite pubs to eat but two weeks ago we went for dinner, VERY disappointed with the tasteless food. Thought we would give it another go for lunch, it was cold, bar person didn't look very happy and the food was low quality and tasteless. I ordered a cheese and pickle. The cheese which was only in the middle so only covered 50% of the bread came melted with tonnes of warm branston pickle on top. The bread was half way between toasted and fresh which makes it feel stale on one side. Toasted or cold and that's it. The chips were bland and just tasted of cooking oil. Needless to say didn't eat them.What has happened The Bull Inn? This is not what we are used to after many years of eating there.

Well mixed reviews . Sunday lunch is ok but how they are charging 11.99 is beyond me. It’s a standard Sunday dinner ... nothing special ... two anaemic looking roast potatoes .... won’t be returning not when there are other places close by where you can get a better quality dinner for less money. The lunch light bites are good value and the steak melt for £5.75 is lovely but I’m not sure about the prices of the rest of the menu !! Also invest in a cleaner the place was a dump last week at lunch time opening , clearly not been cleaned for days ( was in the previous couple of days and still the same stuff on the floor and behind the bar was ....... not nice )

Poor food, beef was tough, mashed potato was lumpy and awful, Yorkshire pudding was limp and incepid, won't go again, new chef??? Must get at least the basics right! £11.99, rip off

Have visited 3 times in the last week. Roast dinner last Sunday - it was towards the end of service but you would never know. The service and food were amazing. Did Friday dinner from the new menu and it didn't disappoint, great service and food again. Vusited Saturday for family pool games, friendly atmosphere and great service yet again. Highly recommend!

I came here with my family for Sunday lunch and the staff where so friendly right from the off, as for the food I had been suggested the lamb shank by the chef himself and it did not disappoint!! It was well cooked, well presented and tasted great. I also liked the wide variety of beers at the bar as was nice to find somewhere that sells hop house 13. Thanks staff for a pleasant service would definitely recommend.

Very good service n the food was superb would definitely will recommend friend and family. Can’t wait to get wife in here

Visited with friends on reopening night and I have to say that Darren and the team have done a great job in revamping the decor in such a short amount of time .... they have even found room for a pool table! Couldn’t fault the band and the complimentary buffet was more like a banquet which was definitely enjoyed by all!! It was a great atmosphere and we had a fantastic night. They have a huge selection of drinks, friendly and efficient bar staff, super clean toilets and a great atmosphere. Really looking forward to trying the new menu over the next few weeks.

Called in yesterday with some friends to see the refurbishment and we were underwhelmed. The parts that have been decorated only highlight the shabby higher ceilings that definitely need doing, I’ve never noticed it before. It felt like a really old fashioned pub but not in a good way, there was a really strange damp smell and there were no fires lit despite it being freezing cold. To top it off the Pinot was very expensive and quite unpleasant. Not sure if food is on offer but if it is I can’t comment on that. Not for me I’m afraid, won’t be returning in a hurry.

Had a lovely meal here celebrating a birthday, definitely family friendly. The food was what I would call proper ‘pub grub’ and cooked lovely , I can certainly recommend the fish and chips. Really friendly staff , I would recommend a visit to the bull,you won’t be disappointed

A good friendly family village pub offering great family food. Nice outdoor space with play area and dog friendly. Friendly helpful staff and customers, what more can you ask for, my local and I’m proud of it and thankful for it. However, visitors and new faces always welcome. I’m dieting and they’re always happy to accommodate my food requests, I.e. a change to the menu items.

Amazing food and the dessert of chocolate orange cheesecake was to die for. Very nice pub and friendly

I grew up in the 1980s a very short walk from the Bull, and, back then, it wasn't exactly the place to be for a teenager (I mean young adult.) However- after being away for 30 years- and returning with perhaps more sophisticated tastes than I had when I was 18, I have to say that this is the perfect pub to meet my middle-aged requirements for a spectacularly good pint and outstanding food.

Returned for family Sunday lunch at the Bull. Such a fabulous welcome, friendly staff and Inn owner, Stan . Food brilliant, hot, tasty and really home from home cooking. Dogs welcome too which is great. A thoroughly enjoyable time was had again by all and we will be back !! Thank you.

Really lovely evening with family party of 7. Lovely waitress and Inn owner, who were excellent with our son. Fab food and puddings. Really recommend for a gastropub dinner.

We stopped off for an evening meal on the way home from work. This is a local traditional pub that is the heart of the village. As ‘strangers’ we felt welcome, food was excellent and staff we attentive. Food is traditional pub food, can recommend the Bull Burger and Chill. Dogs are welcome inside.

This was an improvised family visit to this nearby pub, where all six of us left feeling very satisfied! Every dish was well cooked and delicious; certainly credit to the chef. So often pub favourites are a disappointment, but not here. The fish was beautifully white & cooked just right, the chips excellent and the service was friendly and efficient. One of us chose a pasta dish, which is often a risky choice, but here it was not only very tasty but also well garnished. Overall a lovely pub, which still retains a country feel as well as being very good value for money.

We booked last minute on Easter Saturday, four of us with three dogs. Very accommodating, lovely food, shame the chilli had sold out, sounds delicious! Good value for money, healthy portions and great service. We will come back next time we visit the area. Thank you!

Seven of us visited The Bull today (Sunday) for a birthday lunch - we all had the roast dinners which were absolutely fantastic. Everything was home cooked and delicious, we just couldn't fault a thing. The Bull Inn is full of olde worlde charm, plenty of exposed beams and all original too! A lovely warm and welcoming reception from the owner, who was attentive without being a nuisance and extremely efficient. We would highly recommend The Bull and will be returning as soon as we can - thank you!

With short notice this establishment created a lovely dining experience on a busy Saturday evening. The menu choice had something to suit everyone, we were served quickly and efficiently with friendly service throughout. We will certainly return if in the area again.

Following from my visit two years ago: a group of us met here for a Sunday Lunch this time.

Came in on Saturday evening with my girlfriend and her parents and it was absolutely lovely

We drove from Northampton with two friends especially to go to this pub as we had read so many good reviews, we certainly were not disappointed. We all really enjoyed our meals which were 1st rate and the staff made us feel very welcome. We will definitely be returning.

Stopped off for Saturday lunch. The food was very good as was the welcome open fire . My only reason for 4 out of 5 is the menu. I felt there could have been a liitle more choice.

While visiting Rugby for my Uncles 90th Birthday was invited to Bull Inn with 14 others for Sunday Lunch. Great variety on Menu

Second visit here and was impressed both by the friendly, helpful staff and the quality of food. This place is a brilliant stop for lunch and very tempting to stay there longer. Will definitely be back for lunch next year.

Have eaten here a few times in the last couple of months but most recently with my family for my birthday, the food is AMAZING, good home made pub grub at excellent prices, nice atmosphere and surroundings too

What a friendly place. We came here yesterday for lunch and were so impressed with the food, the service and the friendly staff. We booked Sunday lunch the following day.

I came in on friday evening with my girlfriend after her numerous recommendations. The place wasnt as busy as expected, but i feel this is the case for a lot of places this time of year, we got a nice warm greeting and after getting drinks at the bar were taken to a table by the open fire, which my girlfriend loved

We love this place, regularly come with the family and kids, nothing is a problem for Stan and the staff, the food is always amazing, especially the massive portion of fish and chips, I’ve not had a bad meal here. I would highly recommend this place to anyone, great beers, great food, great Sunday lunch, great staff and great value for money.

Came here for lunch on a Saturday, cozy pub vibes, great food, and service. A good variety to the menu and a decent selection of drinks at the bar.

party of 10. we all had various meals. no complaints, all food came out hot and in a timely manner, sunday dinner, scampi, burgers. puddings all finished. drinks ordered at the table and delivered. would definately recommend and go again.

Good pub food at very sensible prices and with some unusual things on the menu which made it better than the usual fayre

Always a joy to go this local from work. Food super duper ! Reasonably priced, always hot and good food !

We saw this place on our way home after a day out. What a lovely place with great food! Would definitely recommend.

Stopped off here en-route to Norfolk. They had been extremely busy but were very accommodating. Unfortunately the menu was limited due to this. They still catered for all 4 of us and food was fresh and very tasty. A nice selection of beers also. Recommended.

A lovely meal served by friendly, efficient staff. Table for 7 booked at 16:30 for a 18:00 slot was accommodated for and we were all very pleased with the food, drink and service.

We stopped here for lunch before going on our canal boat holiday for a week. We were greeted warmly on arrival, given menus and told to sit anywhere. When our food arrived it was a good sized portion and tasted yummy. A few chips were dropped from my plate when I was served, and an extra portion soon arrived to make up for it. Excellent service.

Reserved a table here for Saturday evening based on TA reviews. Plenty of parking and the pub is set in nice village location. Atmosphere reminiscent of a real local's place with lots of drinkers but not many eating in the restaurant area.

I've eaten here a few times, brought my 2 Canadian friends for dinner on Wedsnesday and had to come back 2 days later as the food was amazing

I really like the Bull as it's a very traditional building with an interesting layout; there's always something interesting to see around the next corner. We booked a table for Sunday lunch and I was surprised to find on arrival at 1.00 pm that we were two of only eight diners plus a couple of guys propping the bar up. We were made to feel very welcome and shown to a nice table in the window, drinks following very quickly but it was while perusing the menu that I began to realise two possible reasons as to why there weren't many customers. Sorry to have to say to the very nice people running the place, but your seats are a bit uncomfortable. I also thought that the menu prices seemed a little bit on the high side but it would have been unfair to arrive at that judgment at that stage without tasting the food so we ordered. I needn't have worried as the standard of the meal was high. I had mushrooms in garlic sauce and better half went for the whitebait, both delicious. We both had roast beef for the main course and finished off with cheesecake for myself and sticky toffee for the missus, who without prompting claimed it was the best sticky toffee she'd ever had. She must have liked the Australian Chardonnay as she managed two 250 ml glasses but one pint of the Tribute bitter was enough for me. We came away feeling well fed and refreshed but with my wallet just a touch lighter than I felt it should have been.

Great rural location, friendly staff, good food and fantastic SECURE internet connection. It is interesting that the more pretentious an establishment becomes, the less concern is given to internet security! At The Bull, I was able to do internet banking, share trading and other things that it is increasingly more difficult to do at "five star" joints, Great place and good people.

My family are really upset about this. We booked a table for 4 adults and 2 children for 1.30 pm today. At 2.30 pm we were still waiting for our food. There were several waitresses coming in and out of the kitchen; all but one avoided eye contact/any form of apology for the wait. When our food arrived, I started on my lasagne until my daughter expressed surprise that it was Quorn, not spinach and ricotta as ordered. We decided to double check it was Quorn, the waitress came back and said 'Oh I'm sorry, it is beef, can I get you something else? I explained I was vegetarian but she shrugged her shoulders and said the mistake wasn't her fault. I asked to see the manager and he admitted it was his fault, he hadn't got a chef and he was cooking. He was admittedly very stressed and eventually offered in front of all the customers there to cook me a vegetarian lasagne and to let us have all our meals free of charge as an apology. However, when my daughter went to pay, he refused to do this, knocking just my meal and a few of the drinks off the bill. When both myself and my son in law reminded him of his earlier promise, he said it had been said in the heat of the moment. My daughter was very upset that her treat to us had been spoilt and so just wanted to pay and go, but afterwards our family were all really angry about how we'd been treated. I would never eat there again.

The pub was refurbished a few tears ago now and is a vast improvement. The food is good and there’s a good atmosphere when it gets full. We’ve always had a bit of a wait for our lunch, despite booking ahead, but good when it arrives.

Came here prior to picking up our canal boat, following the recs on TA. We were not disappointed! As we walked in we were met by a friendly welcome from the lady behind the bar and there our plenty of places to sit in a nice environment. The food is typical "pub" food with some local specialties. We chose the faggots and the chicken and leek pie. Both meals were freshly prepared and tasty. Great service, food and atmosphere. An excellent place to start our weeks journey!!

Went for Saturday lunch. Nice village pup, friendly and efficient staff. The food was simple, well prepared and good portion size.

Excellent meal out entertainment in the time we were there

This is a thriving village pub. I haven't eaten here for a while, but come for quiz night on a Monday, which is always well attended, and taken quite seriously. Good range of drinks and the coffee is excellent.

Visited on a cold Saturday night. They had a roaring fire going which was very cosy. We had a three course meal and each course was delicious. The rhubarb gin was very nice too ;-) Highly recommend the banana cheesecake & the pate, yummy. Thanks...

What a lovely meal my family and I enjoyed yesterday at The Bull Inn. Beautiful food, top marks to the chef. We will be back for sure. Food was absolutely deciduous. I have heard good things about this place and the chef here but it exceeded my expectations. We where blown away. Thankyou

Came for lunch with friends - lovely atmosphere on a freezing day as the log fires were crackling nicely. Staff very friendly and the service was great. Food is traditional pub grub - well cooked and portions are huge. We had nachos to share to...

Great food staff very helpful Prices very good for meals served Good was hot and very tasty filling and nutritious

Had a nice surprise with our visit to the Bull - first in 4 years. The hosts were very pleasant and welcoming. I had the faggots with chips, and mushy peas which was amazing. My wife had scampi which was also very good. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Had lunch here today with a few friends. The food was lovely. The service was excellent. Prices are right. Really nice atmosphere here, even better because the log fire was lit. The portions are of a good quantity. If you want dessert have the smaller portion so that you leave room for it. Fresh cream is served not the aerosol type. Custard is just the right consistency. We didn't have the ice cream, but I assume that is just as good. I have the Bull Burger, wow, that was a whopper. Lasagne was another dish that was ordered, really lovely also, then there were the faggots, you either have chips or mashed potato, there is plenty of both, the mash was really creamy and the chip were chunky.

wow wow wow. visited few weeks ago with friends after some hard craft on our garden, they were very very busy but managed to squeeze us in , the food, the service etc was awesome. Cannot wait to have some more of the fantatic chicken,ham and leek pie. Everyone in the group felt the food was stunning.

Very pleased with our first visit here. Really good service, great menu of straightforward pub food with a few twists (e.g. a very generous portion of chicken fajitas with chips!).

Called on the off chance today for lunch. What a great experience. Food hot and freshly cooked. Very friendly owners and staff. New boiler wasn't working but ladies brought us mobile heater to keep us warm. So will be returning tomorrow night with friends who are visiting from Norfolk. Hope to make this our local and regular from now own.

had a smaller protion lunch which was freshly cooked and more than -adequate service was with a smile and attentive!!

Whilst visiting rugby I stopped here for a drink. The pub is large and looks like a food pub but it's just a drinking pub. It was very clean and modern and the staff were friendly.

Great food very tasty good beer very friendly beer garden with play area plenty of choice of food nice atmosphere will definatly be returning

First visit to The Bull for many a year and very nice meal it was too.

We popped in for dinner from our boat on the canal just down the road. They were friendly enough, but it was quiz night, so that tended to dominate.

We had a lovely lunch here. There were 6 adults and one child, although we had booked a table there was no need. The food that we ordered was delicious. My only negative comment about the food was the garlic bread starters, they could have been served a little warmer, other than that the food was served as we ordered it. The staff were very friendly too. We also had a tab which included drinks this was a nice option to have. The tables were clean, and the cutlery was spotless, I know this sounds a bit picky, but in some restaurants the cutlery seems to have water stains and this makes them look dirty. Well done kitchen staff.

I take my mother her for lunch every few weeks. The menu is nice, the food never disappoints and is good value. I particularly love the white chocolate and raspberry bread and butter pudding ... heaven but best shared.

Group of seven of us went in for a meal at the weekend.Food came out for all of us at the same time. Main meal was very nice - good quality and good portions.Pudding was very good too - definitely recommend the Bread and Butter pudding.

Needed to book somewhere for 10 people for a meal after being let down at last minute, very grateful to The Bull for accommodating us all at such short notice. Meal was very nice: starters and mains, had no room for a pudding though. Nice rhubarb gin too.

Great local pub with really good food. Worth a visit if only for the Bull Burger!! Great garden play area for kids. Some live music events and pub quiz nights. We go back time and time again!!

Went for dinner on a Friday evening.Good food had the steak and ale pie and a black and blue burger with drinks, excellent service with good food. Would recommend this pub.Staff were friendly and helpful.

I took some friends there in February 2017 and, although local, they hadn't been for years. The meal was impressive with a good choice of dishes and great service.

Celebrated my husbands 40th and daughters 18th at The Bull in March and it was great. Prior to the date, Tracey worked with us to set a fixed menu/price and was very helpful in showing us around the pub suggesting different places we could sit on the day. The staff were very helpful on the morning when I arrived to put banners and balloons up and moved tables around. The actual meal was a great success. The food was lovely and the service was very good. Paying the bill was also a smooth process considering there were a number of people paying different amounts. We all had a fantastic time.

Great hospitality shown by both staff members working in the bar. Food was okay but nothing special.Expensive for the portions we were served.For example our starter was £6 for 3 small pieces of chicken in breadcrumbs.Main course was similar, poor value for the price.Items which we would have ordered from the menu weren't available ☹️.

You know how it is eating out on those special named days, you expect restaurants to be rammed and the quality of the experience to nosedive, but Mothers Day here for our family party was untroubled by this risk. The food was a the top of the 'pub grub' ladder and the service exemplary. A generous roast with smooth mash and nicely turned out potatoes, veg at the right point on that scale between hard and overcooked, very flavoursome gravy and beef of the thickness to get your teeth into. To be fair, the knife didn't run through the meat like butter, but neither was it chewy and it certainly had a good taste to it. The top marks, though, went to the sticky toffee and custard combo, a perfect texture and sweetness, that one could have tackled twice over. Not sure, though, why the custard jug was presented the table sat in the toffee sauce, I resented every molecule that then affixed itself the base of the vessel, made that sticky and was lost the dish.Friendly, welcoming and attentive staff added to a good ambience and a celebratory atmosphere where the only complaints could but be very minor.

Had lunch here today and it was fantastic! Food very fresh and of very good quality.The atmosphere is perfect and very nice with the open fires burning.The staff are very very polite and welcoming. I really can't wait to come back here again soon.

Great lunch with a pint. Between us we had liver / bacon and fish n chips. Both were very nice. Ate in the garden as the pub wasn't dog friendly. Used to that tho. Good selection of Ales (St Austell Tribute, Proper Job and TT Landlord)

Visited this place on the review of a local walking group five years ago and my parents visit 36 years ago!We were greeted and sat after confirming our booking. The place was larger than I remembered, it was early evening and the tables are tucked into every nook and cranny of this building so it seemed quiet.The waiter took our drink then food order. Drinks came around quickly and the food was cooked to order and this too was timely.Friendly service with (I presume) the owner checking by a couple of times to see if everything was okay.Food portions were generous and filling as compared to other pubs. Maybe taking the dessert was a case of 'my eyes were bigger than my stomach'...We recommend this place although make sure you have not snacked throughout the day before you arrive as it will ruin your experience.

It's a good 4 hours since we finished our meal and we are still absolutely stuffed!Everything you could ask for in a Sunday roast alongside a lovely relaxed environment.
