We visited for a family meal and the food was lovely! Staff were friendly and attentive. We have also been previously for fundraisers and events (Leek Show) which have always been organised well and make the pub a great place for families to visit.

Good service, good food, kids always finish their food here and have an enjoyable time themselves and to keep two little ones happy can be a job and a half itself

The regulars in the bar are very friendly too I could listen to there banter all day. It's reasonable prices and the Carling pint is always a good pint.

Awful. You can tell by the owners replies to the lowest rated reviews on how they treat people and what they think of them!. They simply don't care!. Food and service is terrible. Avoid at all costs!.

Great for brunch, lunch, dinner, snack or quiet (even not so quiet) drink! Been many times, always good grub, decent prices and excellent staff service. So friendly! My partner has to be careful what she eats and asst manager Vicky so helpful and knowledgeable with allergens and menu choices. I realise it's a chain restaurant but we're not locals as not all of this chain are equal. The Highwayman is one of the best in our opinion!

Me and my daughter came to spend a voucher we had gifted to us for xmas. We had starters main and desert. Starters was over cooked. Meal was steak and was very fatty and did not taste like a good steak at all amd the hunters chicken was wet and tasted like pre cooked chicken from a packet. It was wet and not much sauce at all and the chips are frozen chips. Desert was brownie and was not brownie at all. It was like mushy cake and tasted terrible. We are very dissapointed in our visit. When i cane in i seen a chip on the floor squashed and staff walked past it many of times and no one picked it up and it was at the steps so someone ended up standing on it including me as i came in. The lady behind the bar was very nice and helpfull.
