The Maltsters Arms in East Devon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Another fabulous meal at the Malsters. We were all very happy with our choices. My bread & butter pudding was delicious. Lovely welcoming staff who really look after you. The young man who served us most of the evening was exceptional considering he had been up since 3am this morning.

I was working nearby, so stopped here for an evening meal. The food was delicious and great real ale, highly recommended 👍

We visited as a table of 9 (two families) for mother's day today. From the very start by email the staff and owners were super caring and attentive. They were quick to accommodate even with a vegetarian and a pescatarian amongst us. The menu floral & beautifully presented matching the occasion perfectly. The choice of food absolutely stunning and just so delicious. A great price, amazing service and a place we’ll return to often now. Thank you so much for providing great food and experience on this special day. x

Lovely evening meal. Had the pork belly which was cooked to perfection and very tasty. My partner had fish and chips, the fish tasted very fresh, with a lovely homemade tartar sauce. Creme brûlée’s to finish all accompanied by a lovely glass of Sauvignon blanc. Clearly a popular restaurant. We both really enjoyed our meals. The service was also excellent. Even better was the January deal. Highly recommended

This was our second visit. Very disappointing. Last time every thing was wonderful, couldn't fault it. Tonight food just about average and the room cold..... very inadequate heating. I'm very sad that I couldn't recommend dinner here based on this evenings visit. I don't know if I'll ever return.

This family run pub keeps very high standards and this shows in the quality of the food and the friendly, professional service. This is how it's always been so you can be sure of a great dining experience. Well worth a visit no matter the occasion.

Excellent find on our way to Ladram Bay. Stopped for lunch, only a smallish menu but food was excellent, freshly prepared and very tasty. Received a friendly welcome and the restaurant was warm and clean.

It's so nice to be able to write a very positive review. My husband and I had dinner here on a Thursday evening. We both had the venison which was perfectly cooked. It was served very attractively with a good mix of interesting vegatables. A sauce made with blackberries, complemented the whole dish. To follow we had the Raspberry Cheese cake and a creme brulee. Everything was excelent. There was only one waitress, she was friendly and efficient. She also had a lovely smile. The unseen magicians in the kitchen are not forgotten, thank you all. As we live in Sidmouth we will be back again soon.

We just had diner here. Really amazing food. I had the salads with scallops. Really good!! And my husband had the chef’s choice pie. Also amazing. And very friendly and good service. Thanks again.

My husband and I came here on Saturday evening. The food was top class. The service was also top notch. It has a lovely cosy atmosphere. You can also buy some local produce

Visited the Maltsters for the first time since they have reorganised the pub. I have to say I really like what they have done to the place creating a sports bar / pub section and a restaurant section. We had a lovely meal that we could not fault - my belly pork was delicious and came with a lovely selection of vegetables. Deserts were wonderful. As we are local to the pub we will definitely return

Visited again to celebrate an award we achieved for our business. The Aberdeen Angus steak melted, the burgers were divine, the service was quick & unobtrusive, friendly, the welcome grand & then to meet chef Jason afterwards was a real honour. His creations are unique and amazing, so much are evident in preparation, presentation and taste, highly commended cuisine, the sweets were also outstanding. Once more we enjoy the Maltsters Arms and once again it scores exceptionally high on our ratings - thank you.

A really super Sunday Roast - with a warm and friendly welcome too! The pork is to die for, as are the big Yorkshire’s and gravy! and the tastiest best veg selection too 🤗 It’s an absolute favourite meal for my family and we never leave hungry or disappointed- only ever leaving planning the next visit! Definitely one to try if you are thinking of giving it a go! BIG thanks to The Maltsters Arms - too many places don’t deliver anything close to the quality of food here! We look forward to visiting again very soon!

Wouldn't recommend this pub as it looks dirty and old not very clean inside or out only pub open now though as the best pub the white hart has closed

Lovely food Very friendly staff Funny Del Boy van in car park Lovely place couldn’t get enough of it Showed football too

I am writing to compliment the team on providing an extremely comprehensive menu for celiacs. Often when I eat out there are very limited options for celiacs but last night I did not feel like an inconvenience! I have had no after effects from the meal which is very unusual. Thank you very much. If I lived in Devon rather than Birmingham you’d be my new go to restaurant. And by the way the Liver and bacon was magnificent 👍

I’m definitely not the fish and chip connoisseur but wowee was that phenomenal plate of food. 2 for twenty quid n all. Scrummy mushy peas and tartar sauce - not shy with the portions either! Fantastic

The haddock we ordered tonight was fresh ….. well if it was it had clearly been out in the heat, fresh fish should not smell so fishy! The whole restaurant smelt of a very strong fish smell. I bought it to the staffs attention who mentioned it to the chef the response was Haddock does smell?!?! Our bill was £158.00 I was disappointed to see the returned “off”fish was still on the bill. It is a shame as the rest of the meal was ok? I truly believe the uneaten food shouldn’t be charge for. You have let yourselves down, customer services and customer satisfaction is key. 😳

What can I say fantastic food every time !! Matt & Sam are amazing so welcoming....if you haven't tried this place it's a most . Booking is advised as it gets very busy 🙂

We stayed locally for a few days and dined a number of times at the Maltsters, the food was fantastic and the service brilliant with fantastic staff. We will definitely be returning!

Paid two visits to Malsters Arms. Welcoming and efficient staff, spacious and clean dining area, wide menu, excellent food. Thank you, will return..

To top off a great evening, my team Liverpool won on penalties against Chelsea. Meanwhile after easy parking in the vast country pub car park a friend & I met to celebrate his new job & Jason their chef prepared an amazingly tasty & well...

We enjoyed a lovely meal here while on holiday. The staff helped keep our little boy entertained with some colouring pencils and a photo and ride on the big display cow. The food was beautifully cooked too and the beer very well kept.

Visited last week with a couple of friends and the food was absolutely delicious. I went for one of the specials - lamb shank and my friends had something from the normal menu, (steak and fish and chips).It was presented beautifully and all cooked perfectly....

Following a glowing report from friends, we booked the restaurant (old skittle alley) for Sunday lunch. We travelled 50 miles and checked that it was dog friendly, which on the website indicated it was. When we arrived the board outside advised no dogs in the...

Incredible Sunday Roast…both the Pork and Beef melting off the fork! Great portion sizes and deliciously crunchy roast potatoes. Lovely ambiance and decor as well! Staff friendly and attentive! Will be back next time we are visiting Devon :)

We were staying in the area so hadn’t booked on Saturday night. Despite being fully booked the extremely polite and accommodating staff fitted us in. They couldn’t do enough for us. In addition the meal was delicious! Pie and lamb shank. Plus the desserts were...

A warm welcome, cosy and attractive restaurant, extremely well organised serving of courses (name tabs showed choices so no interruptions) excellent food perfectly cooked, wonderful menu/choices, great atmosphere with welcoming locals and, unusually, NO loud music during the meal.

8 of us on evening 22 Dec. Really great food, tasty, hot, good portions, everything made on site. Our group loved the steak and ale pie, salmon and vegetables and pork belly. Would come back!

Really good new dining area created from the old barn/skittle alley. Light and airy with a new bar and clever panelling made from scaffold boards to give the space a contemporary feel whilst preserving the old beams. A lot of pub classics but also some...

Lovely Sunday lunch today 😋 Food and service were both faultless. Friendly atmosphere and a warm welcome. And with the added bonus of Sam’s Stores where I picked up fresh bread and eggs!! Well done Sam, Matt and team.

Superb food, lovely menu,excellent service, thank you for squeezing us in at such short notice 😊 love the new dining area, beautifuly done, definitely be back to sample more of the menu soon.

We popped in for dinner tonight. The refurbishments are lovely. A cozy log burner was on. The food was delicious we both had meals from the specials and thoroughly enjoyed them. We have always had amazing food here. Highly recommended.

Brilliant service from Sam & the team at The Maltsters. We reserved a large outdoor area for a family celebration & they decorated the area for us & were so welcoming & helpful, despite being busy. Delicious Sunday lunch with interesting vegetable accompaniments, plus other...

My husband & I booked a table two days ago for dinner at the Maltsters Arms. Its a nice homely pub with wonderful old style decor. The service from the staff was excellent as was the food. We booked a late slot so some of the items on the menu were not available. I had a steak burger with all the trimmings including coleslaw & chips. It was delicious. My husband had cod wrapped in bacon (if I remember correctly) which he said was nice.The pub adhered to Covid rules regarding table placing. We stayed at Woodbury park hotel and the pub was only a short distance away which made it so convenient & a good choice especially at night.

This has always been a popular and reliably good pub with good food, and since the COVID lockdowns it has undergone some significant changes. The front area is now much more of a 'pub' with pool table and dart board to encourage the local teams, and seating to create a friendly feel. The previously less used back room is now a lovely restaurant with doors opening out onto the garden and outdoor seating area.Well spaced tables offer comfortable dining, and the menu, whilst not the cheapest in the area, offers a good range of locally sought produce.The staff were helpful and cheery and service was at a relaxed, but appropriate pace.

Excellent food and service, well above normal ‘pub grub’ despite staff shortages - as most hospitality venues are at the moment - they did not stop the whole evening, and were still smiling and helpful at the end of the evening. Lovely evening with delicious food, well recommended

Went to The Maltsters for lunch on the Saturday and was so pleased we returned on the Thursday for dinner. Everyone enjoyed the food, the service and the feel of the restaurant.A decent menu with a good selection for all tastes. The gammon was great, the lamb special was really tasty, all the desserts hit the spot.

Fabulous Sunday roast. Beef was melt in the mouth and the roast potatoes were spot on. Excellent hospitality from Matty and the team.

I would just like to thank the team for an excellent lunch yesterday - excellent food and prompt service. Will definitely come back. Dominic

We enjoyed an outdoor meal for 6 of us, booked last minute. The service was excellent with the staff working their socks off all evening. Food was lovely, we had 4 different meals within our group and they were all very good. Can't fault anything and it was a very enjoyable experience.

Heard great things about the food so thought we would give it a go.The food was absolutely beautiful and so tasty. A very varied choice! My mum had the special which was chicken fillet with a tarragon sauce.Dad had gammon steak which was presented well with some home made onion rings & pineapple.My partner had fish & chips and he said the batter was beautiful but would have liked some tartar sauce.I had the burger which was delicious, it would have been tastier with some relish or perhaps putting some sachets on the table would have been a solution as we had eaten half our meals by the time the sauces we requested arrived. The food is value for money but felt a little forgotten about in the corner, mum would have another glass of wine as it was empty before the meals arrived but no one asked.We had coffee after dessert (fully recommend the cheesecake) but the coffee was very strong even in my terms.Can’t recommend the food enough, it was the bonus of the whole experience.It was quite busy when we were there and only 2 servers.The food is worth the wait

Two evenings spent at The Maltsters during our short break spent in Woodbury. Such a lovely pub, spotlessly clean throughout and covid precautions taken. Matt made us feel very welcome, and the meals served were excellent not forgetting a good pint of Guinness!!

This was our first visit to The Maltsters Arms and won't be the last. It was recommended to us so we telephoned and booked a table for a Saturday evening. There was plenty of parking available at 7.20pm when we arrived and the Covid arrangements were absolutely clear and sensible with a number of hand sanitising stations made available. The staff were very friendly and knowledge and the level of attention we received was perfect.We chose from the Christmas menu and had seared scallops on a bed of white haricot beans and chorizo followed by roast pigeon breasts with bacon on a potato rosti and red cabbage. The food was delivered promptly and was excellent. The wine was good and coffees were good and hot when they arrived.This was an excellent dinner with excellent customer service.

I visited with my mum for dinner and we were both very impressed. We both had Camembert to start and then a cheeseburger. Both dishes were cooked perfectly and so tasty, with generous portions making it great value for money. Staff were very friendly, professional and covid-cautious, making us feel very safe and looked after. I will be coming back for sure. Highly recommend for a cosy, tasty, well-priced pub dinner.

What an AWESOME, FRIENDLY & TIP TOP Pub. Matt was behind the jump and Sam was front of house. We had booked a table and decided to do a take-out meal because of cover! An excellent choice of Red, White and Real Ale's, (Timothy Taylor Landlord Ale recommended).The take-out meal we chose was the Steak and a bottle, brilliant idea. Cooked to perfection. The Malbec was delicious!On the whole a great visit. We will return. Many Thanks

Really lovely meal and very warm welcome. Social distancing in place. I would recommend this lovely restaurant and will try to go back again. I was recommended two pubs/restaurants in the area and tried both and this pub/restaurant was by far the better one. Excellent environment, friendly service, great menu choices, however please note that during the current Covid situation the menu they have on the website is not the menu they have in the restaurant, even so there is only a couple of things not being served and these are from the starters selection. To sum up really decent food and at affordable prices.

Delightful mains, the lambs liver is exceptional and good value. Great ales are well kept. Desserts are a bit over priced at £6.75 and the Brownie was only finger sized. Overall, a great family meal out and good service.

A lovely meal here with the function room used to ensure appropriate COVID measures were followed. Good service and the food was delicious, especially the special red mullet which was superb.

Stopped here on Thursday for tea. Lovely food ( chicken dish, burger and child’s pasta dish). Staff very friendly and service good. Also dog friendly although have to sit next to the beer garden by the car park with dogs which is the reason I have not given 5 stars. Well worth a visit.

Such a lovely welcome on arrival and the lovely atmosphere was maintained throughout the evening. This was only exceeded by the gastronomic delight of the Chefs talent. Many thanks for this lovely experience.

My husband and had Sunday lunch here yesterday, it’s our fourth Sunday lunch here as we enjoy the food so much. The food is cooked to perfection, fabulous Sunday roast. Thanks so much Matt and Sam

I have just read the previous comment and I cannot believe it .My wife and myself have had many business family and friends meals at the maltsters over a number of years.Last night was no exception where we entertained two of our good friends and the pidgeon was excellent.Over the years we have never had cause to complain indeed Matt and Sam can never do enough for us and anyone else that may vistthere establishment .I really believe that the food is well prepared and presented and really good value for money.To sum up I think you will be hard to find a pub locally to better the food at the Malsters .thank you Sam for looking after us so well last night our friends are still raving about the experience this morning.Dave and Tina

We attended The Maltsters for a family birthday meal. All was well, until the food arrived. Starters were nice but a little overpriced, and two of three scollops on one plate were gritty. Never mind. Then main courses arrived. Both pigeon breast dishes were overcooked and tough as mutton. We complained that they were tough, to the point of being difficult to cut, and were subsequently offered STEAK KNIVES. A pigeon breast cooked correctly does not require a chainsaw to cut. These were only fit for the dog bowl. We were rudely told that ‘none of our other customers have complained’. Not sure where the chefs learned their trade, but what a way to ruin a lovely piece of meat. In the end our pigeon was replaced (not overcooked) but only after an exchange that quite frankly left me without much of an appetite. Come the end of the meal, we sought a discount on account of the issues, and were met with a rude, confrontational and petulant attitude from the landlady. Will not be returning.Ever.

My daughter and her family came down for Xmas So we visited the Maksters Xmas dayThe whole menu was superb Everything cooked to perfection Anyone who hasn't tried this fantastic pub on Xmas day And of course through the year I urge you try it !!!!!You will not be disappointed I assure you We have lunched at The Ritz , Claridges , The Dorchester, and many more .But our local Pub exceeds all our expectations Well done Matt and Sam You smashed it as always

Fabulous roast. Beautifully cooked meat, perfect veg, all nice and hot. Friendlty staff made us feel welcome. Recommend highly

We visited this lovely old pub for an evening meal with family. Despite it being busy we were quickly found a table. We ordered a variety of dishes for us all to try. The scallops were absolutely wonderful as was the prawn cocktail, the only dish that wasnt quite up to scratch was the liver, the mash was watery and lumpy, the liver was very dry, like eating chalk, and the 'jus' was incredibly salty. The service was superb, efficient yet friendly. Well done to the team. We will be back xx

My wife and I had a beautiful meal, served by two very friendly and pleasant bar staff, our meal was of the highest standard, we will definitely go back again and again, very reasonable priced to 👍

Friendly pub serving great food. The limited menu probably helps maintain the high quality of the food. Very enjoyable. Will return.

Had an excellent meal here last week. Friendly welcome too and husband loved the beer. Forget name but it was from Rock, Cornwall and he is not a beer drinker! Loved the scallop dish 😊

Went to a camp site just outside the village-decided to try the local pub for a meal and drink and found the friendliest most welcoming pub for ourselves and our two dogs there were no issues at all with the dogs being there the service and food are second to none restaurant quality food local pub prices a great menu something for everyone the Sunday roast is perfect and the cheese and home made crackers were a great finish to any meal the pub is clean and the landlord and landlady could not be more pleasant and attentive (MATT and Sam ) highly recommended even the locals were really pleasant and made a warm welcome better

I live nearby and go to the Maltsters a couple of times a year, but I have to say that the food last night was excellent - probabaly the best we’ve had there in years ( although it’s always been very good so I don’t mean to imply that previously it’s not been good, it’s just last night’s food was particularly good)

We have had a fabulous meal this evening we are never disappointed when we visit thank you very much

Wow what a hidden gem this little place! My husband and I where away on our mini moon, due to the collapse of Thomas Cook we had to make alternative plans. So we stayed at Woodbury Hotel, and found this place on our travels around Exmouth. And oh my what a beautiful place, staff were exceptionally friendly and the service was 5*. The food was absolutely amazing, best meal we have had in while, if I could give 10* on the food we certainly would. We are highly recommending this place to all of our family and friends, will will definitely be back.

Nice ambiance, excellent service, good range on the menu, delicious food, and quality ales and wines at reasonable prices. The scallops were excellent, and the vegetables perfect

Went for Sunday lunch and we were so impressed we went back again this evening. could not fault a thing, food was amazing staff friendly and efficient. And our Dog was made more than welcome in the bar area .Would not hesitate to recomend and will certainly be back

Nearly went here today , but no dogs allowed in the beer garden only in the carpark seating area or maybe in the shaded area to the front of the pub by the road ... very disappointed .

Excellent food, the hosts Matt and and his wife Sam are very friendly they also keep their eye on the ball when it come to keeping the pub up to a high standard all the time. The Maltsters is to be highly recommend.

A very hot bank holiday Sunday camping in a nearby campsite made us want to visit the pub for some much needed refreshment and shade,we were welcomed instantly.

My partner and I called in on the off chance of getting a Sunday lunch and I was so glad we did ! We both had the roast and it was delicious with plenty of everything served, desserts were great to. We both said it was such a friendly pub and what lovely staff nothing seemed too much trouble. Would definitely call in again if we were passing.

Popped in here on the last day of an excellent holiday for Dinner. Although we hadn't booked we were quickly found a table and chose our meal from a comprehensive menu and specials selection. I had a simple roast chicken breast on sauteed potatoes and roast veg with a rich creamy delicious cheese sauce. My wife enjoyed a huge portion of belly pork with delicous crackling and veg and potatoes. Thoroughly enjoyable and finished off in my case with one of the 4 cask ales on offer. Staff were friendly and competent. A really enjoyable event.

A lovely pub with friendly welcoming staff. The food was lovely, good range of ales and children are also welcome. Just right for a nice lunch visit or a longer evening with friends. Definitely worth a visit.

Another little Gem of a tradition British pub . Invited by our good friend Terry Roberts for lunch there and the wife & I were not disappointed. We had a lovely ploughman’s lunch .with all fresh local produce with a lovely range of beverages to wash it down with. The staff were friendly and did everything to make your visit a great one . The food was fantastic & will be definitely visiting again & recommend you all visit and give it a try . Have a great weekend everyone. happy traveling

A nice welcoming pub in this pretty Devon village; friendly and relaxed staff. Good ales including a well-served Otter and reasonably-priced wine on the short list. Food is decent standard pub. I had a well-flavoured if slightly charred burger with good chips (a companion's steak might also have gone a touch past the requested level of cooking), local ice creams to follow. Impressive cheeses.

What a breath of fresh air it is to eat at this establishment. It certainly makes a change to go out for a family meal and have nothing but praise for every part of it. The menu was superb, in fact the only difficulty was choosing what to have as it all sounded lovely. I like attention to detail and every dish had that; hot plates, well presented, imaginative food with great selection of vegetables. I think even the most fussy of palettes would find something to suit them! Matt & Sam are minehosts and are quite obviously experienced in what they do. They effortlessly run a busy locals bar but equally manage the visitors that have managed to find this little gem. Praise also goes to our waitress who was also superb, attentive and well informed (a testament to good management) All in all, I highly recommend you visit and see for yourself. I must also add that Matt keeps an exceedingly good cellar and all real ales are served perfectly.

Four of us ate here on a Friday night and it was busy with both locals and 'out of towners' (us included!). Great service and great food. Plenty of variety on the menu and an extensive specials board. Good prices as well (not a rip-off).

A friend and I stopped at the Maltsters Arms in Woodbury this week and availed ourselves of the £10 lunch meal deal. I had an excellent Club Sandwich and my friend had a Prawn Jacket Potato, both followed by a nice dessert each. Good food, good value, nice welcome, you cant ask for more than that!

The Maltsters was recommended to us by the owner of the cottage we were staying in, and we weren't disappointed. The service was quick but not obtrusive or pushy. I can heartily recommend the beef and ale pie, as well as the mackerel pate salad. Reasonably priced, good ambience - not too noisy even though it was busy. Really friendly staff and recommend!

Very good staff. High marks Food. Very good. Price and quality. 9 out of 10 . Very friendly. Licencee and. Staff. Great menu. Great Beers and wines.

Today we had a fabulous children’s party at the maltsters in Woodbury, Devon! Outstanding customer service and fantastic facilities! Great value for money and I would highly recommend this place to all my friends and family! Also a great place to eat especially their Sunday roast! Thanks for a magic day!

A lovely village pub, superb menu and good prices. Their roast on Sunday was delicious. Hot and tasty. Meat cooked perfectly and fresh vegetables. Friendly helpful staff too and excellent beers.

Just visited for dinner having dropped in for drinks last night. Wonderful classic village pub with welcoming staff and great food.

Found this completely by mistake ! Really super Sunday roasts ! The meats were cooked perfectly and the veg was delicious !

Very friendly staff, welcomed all visitors as though we were locals- didn’t get to eat here as they were fully booked as says how good the food is x

We have not been here for three years went back and it is still the same great place and friendly atmosphere with great beers and fantastic food and great service.We will return but much sooner this time.Will recommend this great pub to everyone

Dropped in for lunch on way to golf club, so impressed with food, booked for evening meal. Very impressed with service and food.

A delicious meal tonight for our annual presentation of awards. A room to ourselves for the evening and everything came out just as had been ordered.

I was optimistic about this place as there were so many good reviews and I wasn't disappointed. The service was efficient and really friendly and the food was super. It was interesting without being pretentious. Definitely worth a return visit.

Always a very warm welcome at our local. Real fire, good choice of beer and cider as well as a reasonably priced wine list.

Four of us, each had a different meal and we couldn’t fault any of it, all freshly cooked and delicious. The puddings were gorgeous. Staff were very friendly and we will come back if in the area. Thank you Malsters Arms, great meal to end our short break in the area.

The menu offers a vast range of food with an added twist. You can tell that the food is made with love. Compliments to the chefs that worked hard to produce my delicious meal. I would definitely recommend the pork belly.

I often visit this pub and every time I really enjoy the food and service I receive.

I went out for a nice family meal (6 in total) and we all really enjoyed ourselves. Everyone ordered something different of the menu and I must say they do have a good selection plus the specials. All our food was served piping hot and the presentation was really nice I'd defiantly recommend this place to anyone. The Head Chef even popped out to check on us which was a nice touch (my daughter is doing catering at colleague and this Chef is well known in the catering world so I'm told). The main courses were so good we all decided to have a dessert and again couldn't fault them. Drinks were served quickly and we were kept topped up during out visit. Looking forward to returning for my works Christmas meal in a few weeks.

Popped in for a drink with my husband on Sunday afternoon, planning on eating however put off immediately by the dregs of wine served. The taste was similar to a two pence piece. This I can forgive. However when I asked to change my beverage and swap for another type of wine I was recharged full price. So consequently paying £9 for a subpar medium glass of wine. Once resat down the landlady shouted across the pub from the bar ‘guess you don’t want this??’. She then proceeded to smirk as she threw the wine down the sink. All in all an atrocious experience, served by an obnoxious individual. If this is how the owners act - god help the future of this pub.

What a surprise. One of our closest pubs and the best meal that we have eaten out locally for ages, and for some unknown reason we had never been. Buzzing when we went in with locals which was great to see ..... made welcome and menu had good choice and labelling for gf, though you did have to guess for dairy free ( not a problem though as they knew what was in the dishes and had alternatives). All four of us enjoyed our dishes and they brought oil and balsamic vinegar out for the salad as gluten in the dressing. #impressed. Decor has had some thought to it with interesting standard lamps that give a cosy feel. Only criticism and not sure how they can sort it is ..... most of the specials had gone because they had a party of 16 turn up at lunchtime who hadn’t booked! So eaten out of house and home on the specials. Fortunately the main menu has a well balanced choice but still had to look at a board that offered exciting dishes including pheasant knowing they weren’t available. Will definitely be back.

A year later almost and nothing has changed. The "landlord" is obnoxious and biased about how good the pub is obviously. But why 'slag off' the other pub in the village? Not professional at all, and the food is over rated and over priced...

Good food friendly atmosphere and value for money would certainly recommend and return again to here

Great local pub. Friendly service. Good pints on tap. Solid food. What isn’t there to like? We were here when there was a steak and wine offer, which was great (two steaks and a bottle of wine for £25).

We visited on a flying visit , the staff were lovely, the food great and the service quick . I would recommend a meal here.

We visited for an evening meal to celebrate 2 family birthdays. We were all impressed with the range of dishes on the menu and the specials board - something for everyone. The prices were not cheap but not overly expensive. The portion sizes were average and the general consensus was that the dishes were tasty but not outstanding. The staff are friendly and service is good. A great village pub which still retains its character.
