We went for a nice quiet drink. But I do love the food and atmosphere. Next time I will get food again there.

I’m actually quite shocked by todays experience here. We have had Sunday lunch here several times, food has always been lovely and the young man waiting is also very lovely. Today however was quite the opposite. Appreciated it was busy and was happy to have waited 45 mins for our Sunday dinner but when it arrived the potatoes & Yorkshire puddings were dry, hard & crispy and I could hardly cut through with a knife. I simply asked for fresh Yorkshire pudding to be told by the young waitress the kitchen had shut even though the table behind us were still waiting for their food. I asked to speak to the manager, I was polite & again asked for another Yorkshire. I have never come across such a patronising, Volga man. He decided to rather than deal with the issue have a debate with me about how Yorkshire pudding is cooked. I simply wasn’t interested. I just wanted another Yorkshire pudding. He sat next to me and touched me, I asked him not to touch me and to forget it, all he kept saying was it’s a comp meal no apology, no empathy for how he’d made me and my daughter feel… it resulted in us asking him to leave us so we could continue our dinner. To my astonishment, he went back to his pint that he had been drinking the Customer side of the bar, this was the manager on duty drinking alcohol, mixing with the regulars and completely non-interested in the dining area of the restaurant or the fact that you had unhappy customers in there. I asked for the bill, the bill came fully priced I asked for the beef dinner be deducted from the bill but made it clear I was happy to pay for the other two meals and the drinks we had. He couldn’t even be bothered to amend the bill. He just simply came over to me and told me it was comp yet again. I have never experienced such appalling service and it’s such a shame because other than the Yorkshire pudding the food itself was lovely. Sadly it’s made me feel so uncomfortable and I will not be returning to this place.

When we arrived we were greeted by Mia, shown our table and offered drinks, Mia left us sufficient time to make our selections from the menu, before taking our orders, Mia was always attentive, but never over attentive. a perfect host. The food was superb, particularly the rump steaks, beautifully cooked and succulent. Our hearty congratulations to all the team at The County, thanks very much for a great evening, and we'll be back again soon.

Absolutely poor...when in with my partner stood there for around 10minutes not got served at all even though their were e bar staff on...the reason why I didn't get served is because I wasn't a regular people were coming in who they new and served them while we were still standing their and it was obvious we were waiting to be served after another local came in and got served before us again me and my partner walked out cause the bar staff were clearly taking the p*ss and serving the locals 1st and we were ignored shocking staff if they don't know who's next in line won't be stepping foot in that place again

What has happen to the food at The County? Answers on a postcard please This time last year i had a Gourmet burger and it was fantastic, however this time around ,I got to say this was the worst burger i have even tasted, a disgrace in my opinion ,no taste at all ,so disappointed, by the way is this pub being turn into a night club? The music was so loud me and my mate could not have a proper conversation. Sorry to say i will not be having anymore food at The County and also it will be long time before i go back for a drink ,it's such a shame.

Went for a Christmas dinner for work. Overall, the establishment was very nice, no complaints with the staff. This was very cosy with the log fire. Music was loud, and everyone was talking loudly over the music. The drinks are not the cheapest. The starter was very nice (lamb) , the main meal I had the steak (highly recommended). However, when the dessert arrived (crumble), I was really looking forward to this, I wasn't told it was how hot this was. I took a small spoonful and blew on it, took a small bite, and burnt my mouth. If not for the fact that I wear an upper denture, I would have had a blister on the roof of my mouth. I waited about 5 minutes to try again, and it was still too hot to eat. That spoilt my evening. At least I couldn't complain about the food being cold. I personally wouldn't go here again just because of the reason that my dessert tried to scald my mouth. There was a great choice of food for all tastes and all the food that I saw looked very good and were presented well on the plates. There is no specific parking as this is on a busy road. Looks wheelchair friendly as I didn't trip over any steps going in. It wasn't the best experience, IMHO, but there are a lot of worse places you can find out there. Did I enjoy myself? Sort of. Would I recommend it? Maybe.

Was quiet on arrival due to hot weather and others choosing to sit outside or go to another pub with a garden . Staff were immediately attentive and were more than happy to help with choice of wine and offering a taste to make sure it’s what we’d like . we were very impressed with the wine, and the price.and the staff. We had Sunday lunch, roast beef for me, turkey for my best friend Jon, we both loved the fact that it was served hot not Luke warm like some places and what everyone expects from a Sunday roast We decided it was the best we’d had in a long time. Service from all the staff was fantastic. We also noticed that the empathy and familiarity with customers who must be regulars was a joy to see and rare in these days. Big shout out to Stanley who was the star of the day with his waiting skills. Thank you

We went to a local businesses leaving do at this pub, recently on a Monday evening from around 530pm we spent a lot of money as drinks are not cheap there, a few hours before the normal closing time, the pub decided they wanted to close for the evening as it was only Monday and not that busy, unbelievable, the rude barperson had the cheek to say we were rude as we were not happy being asked to drink up so early, in other words when asked to leave early do so and don't say a word, just comply. It's a business I walk past regularly, and even when there's a cup cricket match on next door, it's closed most of the time. Obviously, they don't need the trade.

Nice venue, service was perfect to start then a bit lacking the food was ok the coffee was ok, my mate & I had the triple roast, the roasted Julian veg was cold and the roast potatoes looked like they had been par cooked but missed the roasting and crisping stage. The meat was ok but a little dry and over cooked. When asked when paying was it ok I explained and just got an oh ok. Shame as it came very highly recommended. Might be an off day will try again

Didn't rate the food at all. Nearly 15quid for a roast and it comes out like the potatoes were microwaved. Meat was disgusting. Half the food came out which means half of the table had nearly finished before the rest got theirs. Had to go to the bar and ask for the rest of our food. Music pumping out like we were in a nightclub. Wouldn't recommend
