1st time going to Chancel pub for food and it won't be the last. Just had the best chicken bhuna of my life(freshly made may I add) and I've had a few 😁. Service was spot on really polite and attentive staff. Me and the wife had a starter to share and the 2 chicken bhuna's (which also came with rice,skin on chips and a naan bread) a couple of pints and a pint of coke and spent just under £40. Would highly recommend.

Went for dinner today with the hubby and the food was amazing! Had a halloumi fries 😋 followed by chicken bhuna, (freshly made) naan bread, rice and home made chips with 2 pints of beer and a coke for less than £40. Very polite staff and nice atmosphere. Will be back!

Typical estate pub, very much for the locals but nothing wrong with that. Only the usual keg beers though.

No food on offer cos the chef hadn’t turned up. Not surprised given the level of service, locals clearly not welcoming to non-locals. Bird in the barley up the road are much better with better service and welcoming staff. Would avoid this place like the plague, many other local pubs with staff actually pleased to have customers and food on offer,

We started going to my Dad’s local The Chancel for Sunday lunch since January. It’s so good we now go every week. There’s a special offer for 3 courses but even 2 courses is good value and the food is homemade and excellent. The main course is always hot and perfectly cooked, good portions too, which is why we only manage 2 courses. The homemade desserts are very popular, always more than one flavour of cheesecake available. Nothing is too much trouble for Carrie and Scott who now hold the reins, and chef Sonya. We look forward to going every week and are never disappointed. Gets Dad a proper home cooked meal too.

A great visit to this gem , that's just on our doorstep. Offered 3 courses for £9.99 and why not. Tried the garlic mushrooms with garlic bread, very garlicky (just the way I like it) Roast dinner with all the trimmings, Yorkshire puddings best I'd had in ages. Reminded me of the home cooked meals I had along fine ago. Finished off with home made white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake, it was totally amazing. What with this and their loyalty card scheme well with a visit. They even do take outs too. Well with a visit

went for food at the chancel, omg, it was shocking, it is clear they have a new cook and obvious they don't know what they are doing. would avoid if i was you, food was very bland, it was cold, only took a few bites, had to leave the rest, luckily didnt eat enough for food poisoning. very disappointed, used to be good for food. wont be returning in the near future.

Would I recommend it 100% and certainly will be going back...

We popped in here for a bite to eat on a Sat lunch time. 7 adults and 2 children. Having eaten here previously since new ownership the food is very nice and well priced. This didn’t let us down once again. What did was the member of staff behind the bar. If looks could kill when we walked in! We were made to feel unwanted / an inconvenience. Ordering the drinks first I noticed a few of the glasses had thick pink lipstick on these, we asked for the drinks to be replaced, they were - poured from one dirty glass to another. We gave up at this point. The food was then served quickly, well 6 of the 7 were, she rudely said. Oh there was “two chicken was there” a moment later a kinder female member of staff came through, explained the mix up, apologised and said it wouldn’t be long. Mistakes happen, we are all human, it how we approach them that matters, if it had been dealt with as kindly as the second member of staff did, it would be a higher score. Overall, I’m not sure I’ll return. A friendly greeting costs nothing these days.

I was staying in the Premier Inn and bought the meal deal at The Anchor. Having dined here on several occasions the service is always amazing both at dinner and breakfast. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. Stu, Josh, Sky and the rest of the team are amazing and make your dining experience great. The food is always lovely.

Visited for breakfast and had the 'Large Breakfast', which was okay. The venue is large, popular, but quite dark. The service was decent enough, but some of the tables and menus could do with a wipe down due to being rather sticky. The beans also lacked any taste.
