Eating out is not just about the food, and this restaurant needs to learn that quickly. We had no issues with the food; however no matter how good the food was it was spoilt by the service and staff attitude. We ordered our food at 20.15 and were served at 21.45. During this time no member of staff spoke to us or indeed apologised for the delay. Such a delay clearly impacts on our enjoyment; given that members of our family had early work commitments the following day. Our party spent over £100 at this venue and to experience a staff who were disinterested and not engaged in the total experience is not acceptable and poor management. As our food was served the waitress spilled some chips on the floor; instead of picking them up she kicked them under the table……..says it all!!! We will not be returning.

Nann bread greasy curry far to spicy to enjoy four bits of chicken in the tikka masala not sure what the grey powdery seasoning was on the tikka starter but tasted very bitter and sour if you don’t want your mouth burnt out go for mild curry when asked

First visit here for many years, heard it had been refurbished and that the food was great, so thought we'd give it ago. There was 9 of us in total and we all had the Sunday roast as they serve the curry menu later on. Kids could have chicken nuggets which they opted for. All the roast dinners were amazing, we had beef and and lamb between us and there was plenty of meat, very generous portions and plenty of veg brought in bowls to serve yourself. Roast potatoes and parsnips were delicious. Tables all kept clean when people left. Will definitely come back and try the curry and other menu options. Staff also very kind and attentive.

This family run pub and restaurant has been delivering the highest quality food and drink for years. They recently had a complete renovation. Im glad to report that both food and drinks have also improved, which I didn't think was possible. They are serving higher end beers and spirits. Indian grill is always on point. The recent lockdown hasn't stopped me and my family ordering takeaway. I should also mention the amazing traditional Sunday roasts, once lockdown lifts I cant wait to sit in with my family for a roast.

It's safe to say this is my worst experience of a meal out post lockdown. I felt so uncomfortable and only stayed an hour to eat my food. So crowded, too busy. Noise controls non existent so I didn't find it relaxing at all as I couldn't hear what my party was saying to me. People just walked up to the bar without being challenged. People walking out of the way in. Had to walk through a busy bar to exit the pub. Where is the PPE? I used to like this pub but this has been a very negative experience.

We ordered the turkey which came with mashed potatoes, roast potatoes, swede, roast parsnips, Yorkshire pudding, peas, broccoli, cauliflower and lashings of gravy. It was very tasty and plenty of it.

I have visited this restaurant on several occasions, the last visit being on Saturday night. We pre-booked a table as it does get busy. We shared a "large" mixed starter between four. There was Fish Pakora, Chicken Tikka, Tandoori Chicken, Lamb Chops and Shish Kebab. This was served on a sizzle platter with a bed of sliced onion. Absolutely delicious.The main courses chosen were Chicken Jalfrezi, Chicken Tikka Masala and Lamb Bhuna. Each of our party enjoyed the main meals we had the usual rice and naan breads to accompany them. You can select different spicy heats for each of the curries. I selected medium for my Jalfrezi and it was quite spicy. I have previously had hot and it was too spicy for my palate.The prices are very reasonable, the service is slick and we were made to feel very welcome as usual.

I went in July for a few beers and met up with a few friends, ordered a pint of Stella, just as I was about to taste it I noticed a vinegar smell from the beer, so asked the bar person for an alternative drink, apparently I found out the Stella has been a problem of being smelly for over a year but nothing has been done about it. The staff and owners seem to acknowledge it’s a problem but not doing anything about it. Terrible service won’t be going there again !!

This is a modern pub with a decent car park. Inside there is a no frills approach. There is a good choice of beers and screens to watch the sport or music. Up until now that’s pretty much like any other modern town pub but the food sets it apart. The menu is a plastic laminated sheet but don’t let that put you off. The curries are brilliant they have a home cooked feel but retain the authentic Indian restaurant style. Each curry can be adjusted for heat on request. The Lamb jalfrezzi I had was one of the most tender lamb dishes I’ve ever had! Prices reflect the no frills approach making it great value for money.

It was so tasty and a lovely mixture of different meats . All the staff are friendly and helpful and after several drinks ( perhaps too many ) we asked for the bill which we where surprised at we thought it would be so much more then the owner/ manager wanted us too have another round on the house !

The Dun Cow was recommended by our guesthouse (Furnace House) and I'm so glad we followed up on their suggestion as it was one of the best meals of our trip. First impressions are of a rather ordinary local boozer and to be honest if it hadn't been recommended we probably wouldn't have gone in.

We decided to go here for a birthday Sunday lunch at 1pm, we arrived and the restaurant was already heaving (glad we booked there was 9 of us) the bar service was a little slow but only to be expected as I feel getting the good out to people was probably more important.We first purchased drinks and returned with our food orders shortly after, I had the veggie option and everyone else went for Sunday roast with a mix of meats (not advertised but very accommodating) it did take quite a while for the food to come out but have to say the service by the young lad with braces was top notch very polite and very smiley. The food I have to say was hot, tastey and worth waiting for, so much so we had dessert, again a bit of a wait to receive them but very worth the wait.All in all a very enjoyable experience and would definitely recommend but be prepared for a wait if they are busy.

Had Sunday lunch at The New Dun Cow yesterday after recommendations from some friends.Our booking was handled by who I'll assume is the Landlady. She was very pleasent to deal with and she greeted us upon our arrival yesterday. She is exactly the sort of person that you want to deal with, very professional, polite, happy and helpful. If I owned a restaurant I would employ her.We asked for a table near the restaurant entrance due to my Mother's mobility problems and our request was granted with no trouble at all.However, we did have to wait almost half an hour for our food to be served after we ordered. If the place was full of customers and short-staffed then it would have been understandable. But this was not the case.When our food arrived, two of our party were given the wrong meals. Beef and Lamb meals were transposed. Unfortunately as the meats of both meals were smothered in so much gravy, it was not noticed until both people started eating. However, after we notified a member of staff then this situation was dealt with efficiently. I had the Broccoli and Cheese Bake which quite frankly was delicious. No complaints about the food from any of us.I also noticed how efficient the staff were at cleaning the tables. No sooner had the customers left then a member of staff cleared away the plates and cutlery, cleaned the table surface and replenished the table with fresh, clean cutlery.However, it would have been nice if the person cleaning the tables had worn a belt or pulled up his trousers to a more acceptable position. While I'm eating I don't really want to see someone's Calvin Kliens while doing so.Altogether a nice experience, sadly let down by the points I mentioned but that won't stop me from visiting The New Dun Cow again at some point.

Visited on Fri to meet up with friends, when they said we meeting at dun cow, i was maybe not expecting a lot, having been to the pub in the past when I was younger. Yes the same outside, and similar inside but fresher. Lots of people in on a Friday evening good sign? We ordered a bottle of wine not the greatest choice, but not overpriced, the menu was unexpected as it contained some great sounding dishes for me as a vegetarian. We ordered but took a long time to arrive, we happy to chat as lots to catch up on, we had a member of staff come to us and apologize for wait and gave us a bottle of wine nice touch! The food coming out looked great! When ours did arrive the flavours were lovely, great for me spicey, but really tasty not overpriced again and I can say I enjoyed my meal, no this is not the Ritz but does not pretend to be it's a decent pub/restaurant doing decent food and lovely staff, go and try the Indian or English menu I think you might be surprised!

I had my retirement party for 32, here last Saturday. I asked for hot food as opposed to just a cold buffet. They produced both; the hot curries (chicken, veggie with naans and rice) kept warm on heat plates were amazing. All my friends and family raved about them. The cold buffet which was both English and Indian was top notch; samosas, pakoras, masala chips (yummy), sandwiches, pork pie, sausage rolls etc.All this with reasonably priced drinks. What else could you want??The bar staff Deb and Vicki were attentive, friendly, helpful; nothing was to much trouble. They dressed all the tables too.The chef, Paul, with his assistant cooked the food to perfection; listening to our specific requests re salting and spicing.Bal and Kal, the landlord and landlady were both in attendance ensuring everything went smoothly.Can't praise them all enough.

This is a local pub that does western and Indian food, except on Sunday when they do Sunday lunch carvery and then only Indian in the evening. We were told that as Indian goes, it is very good, and it probably was, but I find any burn in my mouth from pepper or chili to be really unpleasant and uncomfortable, so I didn't enjoy the fact that it was curry night. The service was excellent. Friendly barkeep. Judging from the warnings on the bathroom walls admonishing patrons to behave or be banned, some unsavory stuff happens in this part of town. We saw none of that. I expect that if we'd been there for another meal, it would have been excellent.

Went here after stopping nearby, staff were friendly but not too impressed with the food menu as I don't like curry and didn't fancy steak so it was down to fast food after that.I'd say if you like curry/Indian food or steak you may wanna try it as the food that came out looked nice (my wife said)

Called today at 4pm after a bad experience at the Hop and Vine (they were not so welcoming re our 2 children). The young man behind the bar was so friendly and his Dad came over and made us feel so welcome. Food was amazing all fresh and hot. Masala chips were lovely a lot less greasier than at The Hop and Vine. Atmosphere was very comfortable. Overall a great experience.

We called in having read the reviews. Lovely home cooked curries, and incredible sizzler dishes. The Team are friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Will definately return . The value is exceptional and you will not be hungry afterwards.

Been here a few times, the food is really good they do English food and Indian food. The English food is served from 10 till 4 and the Indian food is severed from 4 till 8. I have tried the Indian food i have tried the mixed grill and the chicken wrap. Lets just put it like this the food is very filling I normal go for drinks here to and the prices for pints are reasonable and sprits too.

Great meals once again, my wife & I had 2 mixed Indian wraps + portion of Massala chips. Really tasty food and inexpensive.That is why this is the best Indian food, eat in or take away in the area!

We eat in and have take away regularly from here. Had a take away for 7 tonight, absolutely great! Can't fault it, which is why we eat here once a week. The Indian grill is really good, despite other comments!

I had been ill for awhile and my Grandma was taking me here for a treat because apparently they do a great Indian mixed grill. We got in and there was nobody at the tills but we didn't think anything of it straight away. We decided what we wanted and my Grandma went round to the pub area, because still no one came round the the restaurant bit. It was very loud, you could from where I was sat that something was going on, men getting loud and rude. Five minutes later she came over to me looking very annoyed. She told me some punters were being rude and mucking about and the man behind the counter was doing nothing. Eventually she caught his attention behind the bar and said where can i order food and the man said "We don't serve until 4" which was a lie, says on all the menus the Indian food started after 1pm. She stated that to him and he replied with "I don't know then" Grandma said "Well can I get food or not" and he replied with "I don't know then" she of course walked off annoyed. His lack of knowledge about why there was no food was ridiculous and not sorting out those disturbing punters and letting then wreak havoc while ignoring my Grandma was plain rude. Not coming back to this place with such bad customer service and lack of whats going on.

We have had India meal to eat in and as a takeaway which have always been superb at a reasonable price. I was told that the Sunday lunch was also excellent, so decided to pay a visit. Must admit it was absolutely gorgeous, being a vegetarian a lot of places cook in bulk and freeze them My meal broccoli, leak, mushroom cheese bake was freshly made. My husband had turkey and beef which was cooked to perfection as we're the vegetables. Definitely go again, full marks to the chef and waitresses.

A pub that used to have a bad reputation in the past now is a local must go to place! Went in the other night for a casual drink and a game of pool and decided to try the Indian grill food... Best decision I made, I really enjoy Indian food but refuse to go to all the other so called Indian restaurants in the area because of who they are run by and because it is halal food in those.The staff here are very welcoming, great prices and the portions are fantastic, me and a friend were feeling very hungry so we had the mixed grill, tikka massala naan breads and chilli chips to share! What a feast! Wasn't hungry until the following night!Very good value! Keep up the good work will be back again and use for takeouts very soon!

Tried the Sunday lunch for the first having had some lovely meals off the Indian menu. It was delicious, the beef was tender, beautiful homemade roasters and huge yorkshire pudding and a side bowl of fresh vegetables and jug of gravy. Would highly recommend.

What a lovely family atmosphere? The service is excellent, although you have to allow for busy times because the food is all fresh and delivered to your table by smiling, amiable, friendly, accommodating staff. I've made sure I visited this establishment more than once before rating it; four times in all. On average the service is excellent, the food delicious and well presented: vegetables both plated and served in a dish for you to add as much as you want; additional gravy in a boat for your convenience and sauces as required.The surroundings are clean and comfortable with a welcoming atmosphere.During my latest vist, I accidentally, knocked my glass of wine over and within seconds the owner was there mopping up the mess and ordering me another glass; he is so approachable and ensures his staff are reactive to your needs. Congratulations to a wonderful team!!!

We thought we would pop in to try their Sunday lunch and believe me it was exceptional. I had the roast beef with the usual trimmings and it took me back years! Just like my mother used to make, gravy with real meat juices and roast spunds to die for. It didn't do anything for my wife as she is vegetarian and dairy free but they even came up with a lunch for her too.While there we noticed a curry menu that's served after 16:00 daily so we tried that later in the week. The chicken tika masala was certainly one of the best I have had and plenty of it. My wife had a vegetable curry that suited her and she loved it. They have masala chips so we thought that sounds novel.. wow they were great. So my advice is give them a try they are really helpful and all you need to do ask.

The Indian menu is great and all cooked to you liking. Now also doing an English menu with great steaks! Sunday lunch now also available. Try it, you won't be disappointed!

The ambiance in the lounge dining restaurant was first rate. The service was very good and friendly. My wife had a Lamb Korma I had Chicken Tika Masala. Both meals were of the highest quality and both cost only £5 each. In fact, I had to check to make sure it wasn't a typo on the menu. It wasn't. That was all it cost! We each had a starter, some poppadoms (with excellent sauces) and some nice ice creams for deserts. My wife had a really nice Merlot and I had 2 pints of Guinness Gold ale which was nicely kept.They have spent a lot of money on the kitchen refurb and it was money well spent!

The only good thing I can say about this pub following our visit on a Saturday night when it was absolutely packed, is that the lady behind the bar was very friendly (if she hadn't been straight over to serve us we'd have turned and walked out). That is more than can be said for the customers. It is rare that I feel uncomfortable in a pub, but I did on this occasion. I would avoid.

The place is very run down and is in need of lots of work. The place is clean and the new owners are very friendly and offered a good service! Hard to judge as this is still work in progress but it's 4 stars are for the friendly service rather than the pub itself at present. I am looking forward to seeing the progress :)

A friend and I went to the Dun Cow for a meal on a Tuesday evening as they have many advertisements claiming they serve food daily, when we arrived, to our disgust, we were told they are not serving food because the manager "didn't turn on the oven" We were horrified that they had turned away service due to laziness of the management. She was so rude and did not offer an apology. We are not surprised they never recieve any custom. The manager has no customer service skills, or people skills come to think of it. Anyone who is considering visiting this dump of a pub, I would strongly urge you to reconsider.

My wife and dropped in here for a drink and bite to eat as we were in the area.This place is very tatty and really run down and we soon made up our minds just to have our drinks and leave.Well we left without finishing our drinks, my pint was warm and cloudy and the wife`s glass was dirty around the rim.I would be a cold day in hell before I ever go in this dump again.
