Good quality food at very reasonable prices. Lamb shank was really tender and delicious gravy. Salmon perfectly cooked. Serve a good ale also. Made to feel so welcome despite being so busy. Dog friendly in one part of the pub is a bonus

Fantastic food and great staff. We had a lovely meal. The staff fussed over our 2 year old Grandson which was lovely. Home made chips went down well.

VERY DISAPPOINTING Being told to wait 45 mins for food when first entered the pub but then food did not arrive for an hour and a half is ridiculous. If the pub cannot handle the volume, either employ more staff or don’t allow any more walk-ins. Totally unfair and nothing offered as a good will gesture. Food was average and will not be returning.

As usual great food and friendly service, 4 of us go for Sunday dinner every 2 weeks and the staff know our drinks and are usually ready before we sit down. One of the girls even calls me her grandad.

Excellent value special 2 course lunches. Tasty food. At an evening visit we had a poor meal of overcooked sausages. I think that the chef forgot about our meal and left it in the oven too long. After a complaint we were offered free desserts and an apology.

11 of us went to celebrate a family 80th birthday, the table was booked 3 weeks in advance. We were informed that it would be 2 adjacent tables of 6. When we arrived, it was 1 table for 9 and another table for 3, the table of 3 was set behind the table so we were unable to have a conversation. This was really disappointing. I asked a staff member if we could move the table to join the large table, and we were told we couldn't. We informed staff 3 times that we had been promised 2 tables of 6 but were just dismissed. For a very special occasion, we were very disappointed

Absolutely disappointing after being recommended by friends. Three of our party had pork belly which was totally undercooked with a selection of vegetables which were overcooked and possibly had been sitting around for hours. Will not be going back!

Not as good as it used to be now. Spent £187 on food & drinks for 8 Adults & 1 Child. Took them 40mins to give us our first drinks. The burger in the tower burger was burnt and the cod had charcoal bits on....so basically it wasn't cooked separate. The staff never once asked if everything was okay with our meals. Also the table we sat at was so tight, it was right up against the other table that people were sat on. And the day after I was told by a few people, that it's gone right downhill...which is very sad!!

We go to the Hobson for meals on a regular basis and have done for a number of years. The staff are great and friendly. The food is fabulous and great value. I can't say which is our favourite meal as we have tried just about everything on the nenu and they have all been lovely. Love the fact that they have daily specials too and the homemade chips are the best. If you have never tried it then you need to .. one of my favourite places

Attended the childrens Halloween party with my daughter and granddaughters and they had a wonderful afternoon. It was value for money costing only £4.50 for the little ones and free for my daughter and I. They got a spooky mocktail and pizza which they enjoyed, plenty to keep them entertained with crafts, balloon making, disco and games. The staff were lovely and friendly and overall we had a lovely afternoon.
