I only popped in for a pint… When the manager finally got off his backside to serve me, he put my pint down on one side of the bar and my change at the other! (even though I held out my hand) Then sat back down to vape! The beer is good the customer service needs improvement.

This is my local pub and I come in on quite a regular basis In the last 2 years I have only managed to order a mixed grill twice I have heard every possible excuse for why they have not got one, we only order on Tuesday (I went in on a Friday!!) They won’t let me order, the delivery did not come If that’s not bad enough you then have to go through to see what else they have not got Can we please have someone that can actually manage the supply of food in the menu

I booked a table for fathers day just gone and I'm really pleased I did. The meals were absolutely fantastic. They came out all beautifully presented , piping hot which is how I like my food to be . There was plentiful a portion too on each plate. My daughter ordered the Mac and cheese and she said it was the best she had tasted . Myself and my partner had the cheese and potato pies they were amazing . My little girl had the cheese pasta again another nice dish. With drinks it came to just Shy of £45 for all four of us. That's a great price. The atmosphere was very welcoming with the locals speaking to us as soon as we walked in. I liked how we could actually conversate instead of having to shout to hear one another over the noise. It was a nice relaxing time. Thankyou for having us. X

Plenty of parking. On entering the establishment 1st impression was it needed some attention, chairs were torn and just looked unkempt. We waited over 3/4 of an hour from paying to being served. On arrival the food was hot and well presented. We only saw 2 staff, the barmaid/waitress and the chef. Will continue to visti Marstons pubs in the future but not this one

I had to come back! My first experience was a delight though has been sometime this was my review. "Had the best burger 🍔 it was cooked to perfection and very tasty...you could taste everything within the burger giving the taste buds something to get in to...compliments to the chef excellent food." My second visit today walking towards not much had changed! After probably 2 years? I thought about my first visit and checking the menu the spicy burger took my eye! After ordering it was a bit of a waite...around 40mins. Not that busy yet it was very much a queue status, as l was advised by the staff. Though l was in good company so the waite didn't seem that long. Food arrived and to be honest looked very nice. As we stated, the taste was not disappointing... as l do like a tasty burger, the burgers were tender and a plesent taste to the palette, accompanied with a light salad, dressing, and a side of fence fries. Most people would say a burger is a burger, yet though l would agree, its has to be a good burger to enhance the palette and the taste buds, to go that extra mile. All l can say is that the Flintlock did that today...my compliments to the chef and the bar staff for a pleasant and welcoming experience. Until my next visit! Keep up the good work 👏

Having written a truthful review on our experience of our lunch meal the owner obviously cannot take a poor review, only glory. The steak was nice the chicken tikka was no stars the dessert didn't exist and because it was the busiest day of the year apparently explains the owners poor attitude. We all get stressed and that's the reason we didn't complain. Never going there again a total waste of £40.00 especially in these hard times.

Went for lunch having booked a table. Waited quite a while for food. 3 stars for the steak as this was nice but cannot recommend the chicken tikka. Whilst the sauce was very tasty there wasn't much chicken and the bits of chicken in the dish were fatty. Waited far too long for pudding and when chased were advised they hadn't any more left. Disappointed as this pub was recommended to us for a lovely meal.

Christmas meal pre-booked and unable to serve the festive menu we had pre-ordered. Not clear from booking email (which was made with less than 14 days in advance) that food needed to be pre-ordered for 6 of us and to leave a voicemail on a work phone number on a Sunday lunchtime wasn't going to let us know what was needed. Sorry that you don't read emails about pre-booked food as advised by your surly employee and that you didn't have time to defrost our food.

Our visit to the flintlock was lovely! We were there to watch a rugby match and I had called in advance to book a table. The lady I spoke to on the phone was very friendly and helpful. When we walked in and spoke to the lady behind the bar, she knew exactly who I was and showed us where we would be seated and checked if we were happy with the seating. Our table was placed right between the 2 TVs so we always had a good view of the game. The atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable. The only reason I am giving 4 stars is due to the food. We ordered the 80oz rump with a beef dripping and Merlot. The plates the food were served on were quite hot, unfortunately the food itself was about room temperature and the Beef Dripping and Merlot sauce was not very flavourful. Despite these factors, the rest of the food was still tasty.

I think I must have visited a different pub to other reviewers. I think this is the worst meal out I've ever had. Despite not being ultra busy we waited 1 hour for 2 hunters chicken. The chicken was so dry it was hard to swallow and had absolutely no sauce. My plate contained 11 chips there was no grilled tomato as per the menu and the rocket had been substituted with some chopped, brown edged iceberg lettuce! Absolutely appalling. I wish I had thought to take photos - I'm the wrong generation unfortunately.

The pub wasn't particularly busy but even so we waited an hour for 2 hunters chicken. We chased after 45 minutes during which time no member of staff came anywhere near and we also cleared our own table of dirty glasses left by previous occupant. When the food finally arrived it was, to say the least disappointing. My "portion" of chips consisted of exactly 11 chips (yes I counted) the chicken was so dry I think it had been cooking for the whole of the hour we waited and the barbecue sauce was non existent. The menu stated it was served with grilled tomato and rocket - the tomato was absent entirely and the rocket had been replaced with chopped, brown edged iceberg lettuce.

The pub was very clean, everyone that served us during our visit was great, the drinks were very reasonably priced, the kids loved the corn on the cob and our steaks were perfectly cooked. We will be back with the family again soon.

We arrived for our booking at 1.30pm at 1.20pm. A nice welcome and told where we were seated. Ordered drinks and got straight to the menu as we were all hungry! Was a joint b day celebration for my son and son in laws birthday and also Mother's Day. 3 different menus to choose from, a mother's day, lunch menu, and all-day menu. We all ordered food and carried on enjoying chatting! Finally at 2.30 pm a waitress said "we not forgot about you we starting cooking yours now". Food finally started coming out at 3.10pm, the 1st order out was son in laws burger meal! He bit into his burger and said it was cold!!!! So on bringing mine out I addressed this with the waitress she apologised and took it! She was gone 2 minutes b4 returning with it, steaming!! So now the burger was soggy and the salad inside was hot!!!! With cold spots in the burger!! So my son in law couldn't eat that! I ordered a roast with a vegetarian Wellington! The roast veg were stone cold! The Wellington came out as a tart and I couldn't even cut into it! The mash was really dry and luke warm!!! And the list goes on and on!!! So long story short we all left disappointed and hungry!!! I feel they took on more covers than they could cope with! And inturn ruined our afternoon out as a family! I'm sure in time we will laugh about it all! But I will not return and would not recommend!! It could have been a bad day for the chef, and I'm sure if u like instant mash and microwave meals then it may be ok with less people ordering.
