The Norton Tavern in Stockton-on-Tees

If you are looking for delicious home cook food at a reasonable price then this is the place to come. The Steak and Ale pie is to die for. Staff really friendly and helpful.

Really lovely Sunday lunch, sharing platter was more than enough for two, with a selection of meats which were really good. Staff are welcoming and friendly.

Great food Good atmosphere and attentive staff Went for a family birthday Sunday lunch Great food All fresh veg plenty of meat and enormous Yorkshire puddings Totally stuffed Didn’t wait long for meals Definitely recommend

Beautiful Sunday dinner. Proper home cooked food. Been here a few times as its the best Sunday dinner I've ever had

Lovely little pub which we attended for a baby shower, the staff were really nice and on arrival escorted us to a little out building. It was brick walled and my niece had decorated it and it looked fab, It cost her £70 to hire. We then had a Sunday carvery which was delicious loads of meat and fresh veggies would defo go for a carvery again

Beautiful food and lovely staff! The menu is so reasonably priced.. 2 courses for £12.50 each! We all got 3 different dishes and no faults at all. All absolutely delicious!

Booked for 14 family members for Sunday lunch We asked for a 12.30 booking ad it was our last meal before my son and family emigrated We all opted for Sunday lunch All served very quickly Everything was fresh with plenty of veg They let us bring a Bon voyage cake in and brought plenty of plates and serviettes out Great staff great food Highly recommend

I went today with my children and grandchildren. The grandkids were booked in for halloween afternoon tea for £7 a head. What an excellent meal we had. The adult menu was good and moderately priced, the half parmo was excellent and more than big enough for lunch. With chips or fries. Service was excellent and friendly as was the little dog Orio who greeted everyone on arrival. The kids tea was incredible. Pizza, fries, sandwiches, brownies, muffins, ice cream all decorated with spooky halloween sweets, plus more sweets and treats. This was my first visit to the Norton Tavern and I will definitely be going back. They also have a secret garden where the children could play.

As per the title...fantastic quality and is presented by friendly professional staff. The Landlady is also delicious {karen}

wow! we booked in for sunday lunch as a treat for my Grandma 90th birthday and it did not dissapoint; the staff were lovely helping her and providing a great experience. we got the small adult lunches and they were not only huge and delicious but every item was homemade to the best quality. we will 100% be returning - a hidden gem!!

Unexpectedly our family member was able to call to see his Mam and Aunty. We picked here as it local and one of us had been before. It was Sunday lunch. We had halumi fries and potato skins for starters which was almost a meal in itself. There was plenty of choice for mains beef,turkey, pork, gammon with duo and trio options. The veggie option was extra Yorkers, stuffing and potato’s which was perhaps a little lack lustre. Some traditional pub grub was also on offer such as sausage and mash. The mains came with further veg of cabbage ,cauliflower,swede,carrots and broccoli. We were all far too full for puddings. Nice ambiance and friendly service. Will definately come back again.

First time here. Not many places do a Pork Parmo these days, and my husband loves them, he was not disappointed. He had a side order of onion rings which were also lovely and plentiful. I had the Thai Red beef and it was gorgeous. Potions are perfect, very relaxed atmosphere, we will be back.

We called into the Norton Tavern last night just as we were passing on the way home. The food and service was excellent. Steak and Ale pie was very good and my partner couldnt eat it all, i had the chicken Parmo with Funghi topping which was lovely.

I view menu on line and took party of 5 for my sisters birthday. We were told it was a limited menu which we should of been advised when booking. One meal was sent straight back cold and returned not much better!!! Prvesentation was shocking and no atmosphere at all. 2 people orded the Eaton mess and 1 seemed like the slop at the end of bowl. I would not go back and definitely not recommend it.

We booked to the restaurant to celebrate a birthday. I was so disappointed with the meal, the ambience and the service. One meal was sent back because it was cold, the presentation wasn't very good. I won't be going back there and wouldn't recommend it. .

I had the king prawn Thai curry it was aboustley gorgeous plenty of prawns too and had home made chips which was lovely too my friend had a chicken salad oh my god plenty of chicken breast sliced on top which she really enjoyed and...

Great traditional pub and beer garden. Warm welcome and great service. Lovely atmosphere. We had their take on the local 'Parmo' which was excellent .

Cracking little pub by the railway in Norton. Great beers and food with a great beer garden. I totally recommend the Texan Parmesan, get pork!

Had a lovely afternoon tea . Selection of home made sandwiches, quiche n cakes. Beautiful. Will definitely go back

Booked 2 tables for lunch to follow a small family funeral; we received the most warm and companionate welcome. Karen and the team treat us with care and consideration, although Karen was unable to provide us with a buffet she offered us the lunch time...

Food is lovely and reasonably priced. Don’t have to wait too long for food. Well looked after when we spent a full day there following a funeral.

we visited this pub for dinner it was our first time as we are not locals in the area, we ordered the roast lamb dinners , it comes with a variety veg mash and yorkshire puddings. we have had many dinners in pubs , but...

Went today for Sunday lunch was lovely all fresh veggies good Yorkshire puddings.. Good service Good food ..

We live locally but hadn’t visited the Tavern in for a few years. We thought it had got too expensive considering the quality and portion sizes. Anyway whilst walking past my wife and I decided to pop in for a couple if drinks; gin and...

Popped in for tea, ordered burger (the menu advertised brioche bun) however it came with bog standard sesame bun- bit disappointed. But service good and tasty fries.

Can I say a big thank you to all the staff and the land lady for a lovely meal and excellent service. My Mother had a lovely time for her 80th birthday thanks for making it special with the lovely food and staff. Thank the...

Went for an early evening meal. Good choice . nicely presented. Enjoyed. Except for the manageress. If it wasn't for her , we would go regularly.

Had lunch here and ordered the beef carvery. The meal arrived with beef, mashed potato, Yorkshire pudding and gravy on the plate. The vegetables came separately. The meal was very nice. My only complaint was that I had trouble trying to cut the beef, which...

Happy family birthday gathering at this cosy tavern served a lovely sunday lunch,I had the roast lamb served with mash and roast potatoes Yorkshire pudding and veg perfect very friendly staff and good atmosphere loved it will definitely be going back for more 😊

11 of us were gathered to say farewell to my brother as we had just buried his Ashes at a service at St. Marys Church. We were warmly welcomed and the food was brilliant. Everyone enjoyed themselves - no complaints. We travelled from London, Edinburgh,...

Five friends visited here. We all ordered drinks and opted for the pork loin in mustard seed sauce. It was very tasty, but unfortunately it wasn’t piping hot.We looked at the dessert menu, but all decided on coffee. Once again my coffee was not piping hot.The waitress was very efficient and friendly and happily took a photo of us all.Would visit here again, but not at a busy time, as the tables are very close together, meaning adjacent diners can hear your conversations and vice versa.

Went this lunch time and had three amazing meals. My daughter loves lasagne and this was one of the best she has had, the pork parmo was brilliant, and my wife’s sizzling fajitas were gorgeous. I’d been talking about going here for a while, wish I’d done it sooner!

Googled where to go near Billingham for Sunday lunch which is dog friendly and this came up. Didn’t even know this place existed! The staff are super friendly and the food was amazing. We asked for more veg which was no problem at all. Our daughter had a dessert which there was loads of choice, she choose the rocky road which was gorgeous. Would really recommend this place and we will definitely be going again very soon.

We havent been there for a while but thought we would give it a try,

I love this is pub.Very friendly staff,atmosphere very nice.I will definitely come back again.I always with family to have few drinks.Thanks

Food was very average staff were friendly,food was expensive,we were going to the theatre so we decided to try there.

A really great meal best parmesan i have had in a long time.Lovely place friendly staff,great beer garden.I would highly recommend this pub/restraunt.

We had a party of 13 people in 19.6.19. Superb food & superb service. Nothing was a problem for them, credit where credit is due. All starters & main courses were piping hot & delicious.

All 3 courses were good size portions. The main courses were also accompanied with separate bowls of vegetables, chips and salad items. These were also very generous portions. The service was exemplary with the staff ensuring we did not have any delays between courses and the hot food was still hot when reaching the table.

Food is excellent, plenty of choice, good large portions, decor comfortable beer on draught and hand pulled.only downside on the night we were there was the service was a bit slow both bar and kitchen staff. Would put this down to a one off and would definitely go back again as I said earlier food is excellent

We came here as a group of 7 adults and 2 children for Sunday lunch. The service was great, with a lovely friendly approach from one lady in particular (may have been the owner). The food was pretty decent, with a lot of choice for the meats, and it was all cooked to order, no carvery here. It also came very well presented. The only slight let down was the mash, which i thought tasted instant, like smash or similar. The place itself was also in need of a lick ofpaint in places. That said I would eat here again, especially given the reasonable price.

Ate here with friends. A number of us ate from the 2 for £10 menu. I ordered the pork loin, which was beautifully cooked and the sauce was very tasty. The accompanying vegetables were quite al dente, which may not suit some diners.

So we got there, food took a life time to arrive as well as drinks...starters were the best thing....meat all cold, sausages uncooked, mash was freezing, gravy cold and congealed...clearly microwaved veg...not happy at all, used to be a little gem this place until Karen left...

First time here in many years .... food fabulous and home cooking obvious not a microwave cooked thing in site !!

Belated review of the Xmas Dinner ...

Called in at the end of dog walking for a couple of beers and decided to stay for some food

Wondered where to go for a catch up bar meal with friends. We were not disappointed with choosing The Tavern. Huge menu, spoilt for choice. We each had something different & selected the Steak & Ale Pie (chips & veg), Beef Stroganoff (with rice) and sizzling Fajitas (with salad). Everything was so tasty, large portions. Friendly staff who couldn't be more helpful. Worth a visit & look forward to coming back for something different off their menu.

Absolute perfection from bar staff, service, the chef and Karen the lovely owner. You will struggle to top the food from here. Sunday lunch.. phenomenal! Strongly advise you book, it's so popular. But if it's full.. takeaway service.. bonus when you left it too late. There isn't much either we haven't tried from the full menu.. outstanding. Roll on the summer to be back in that glorious beer garden

we had a celecbration in the tavern on this night with a group of famil, we have been to this place numerous times and always had a good time , food ect, this evening it seemed the manager or owner seemed to be either drunk or on some type of drug she constantly made a scene around our group and at times seemingly unsteady make strange comments and actions with certain people, this lasted for the time in there and to be honest i could not wait to get out, i have never seen a display by staff or owner like this, we left and the topic of conversation was of course her actions with us saying not to return, the staff on duty were by the faces a little horrified and embarrased, they were realy nice but the owner / manager seemed to have lost the plot.

Absolutely fantastic. Meals were delicious, service excellent with friendly staff. Will definitely be going back. Thanks to Karen and her staff for making us all feel welcome and the special treatment of my 2 young grandsons xx

A group of friends and myself visited for food and drinks on Friday afternoon. The staff were very welcoming and attentive and drinks were served promptly. Although it was a really busy service our food came out fairly soon. The food was absolutely delicious as well. We will definitely be making a return visit soon !!!

Cannot recommend highly enough. Absolutely superb. The sharing board is to die for. The staff can't do enough to help and the landlady is so welcoming and friendly.

A little gem in Norton for those that don’t know. We went for a family Sunday Lunch and it was good enough but not exceptional. The food quality was great but the meat was cold and clearly precooked however it was still good quality and tasty. The veg was cold as was the gravy and had to be sent back. Maybe just a busy day but hot food is a basic requirement for a restaurant but everyone has an off day. I will go back and try again.

We visited here as a party of six and although the staff were pleasant, we had to ask for drinks several times before we received them, food took hours and was average at best. The place could really benefit from a good clean as it looked rather tired.

We’ve had Sunday lunch in The Norton Tavern before and really enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and lovely food. This time we ordered Sunday lunch to collect and take home and we were not disappointed. It was absolutely delicious! The portions were more than generous and the food was cooked to perfection. This is a lovely friendly pub and we will be having many more meals here. Strongly recommended!

How on earth the owners of this lovely establishment can employ such a rude,drunk &untidy; person to run this pub/restaurant is beyond belief, a few of us were having a meal,which was good and we all enjoyed, but the way the manager spoke to staff was disgusting, we were absolutely mortified,the brewery needs to get a grip, we will never return,unless it changes

Very very very very LOUD conversations between staff/owner shouted across the place made for a very uncomfortable, anything but quiet, afternoon tea. My friends were really embarrassed and I squirmed with regret for booking this venue as admittedly the only place locally to serve an afternoon tea as late as we needed. It was like being subjected to one of those reality TV shows self absorbed, dull, 'me me me-listen to me' social nightmares.

Ordered lunch, turkey and bacon pie, found two pieces of string in the pie one piece had a knot in! Won’t be going back!

We visited this lovely pub for my sisters 70th birthday and concidering they were cooking for quite a few people the food was absolutely delicious and everything really hot and the staff are fantastic nothing too much trouble.

I’ve been here a couple of times now and am always surprised that there is room to get a seat. Good value pub grub with a choice sufficient to appeal to most palates. Well stocked bar, only missing Morgan’s spiced rum . Service is always good from a relatively young staff. I’ve since recommended to friends and they all seem to be happy when they’ve visited.

Excellant service, quite large portions and good value for money. Not the best Sunday lunch we've had but certainly up there with the leaders.

We visited for a family lunch and weren’t disappointed. The food and service were both excellent. We will definitely be making a return visit !!

Night out with Mum, meal for 2! Mum had steak(10oz sirloin) I had beef stroganoff (asked for homemade chips instead of rice.. no problems for them!). Very good food, perfectly cooked, lovely presentation. Great atmosphere, all the staff were attentive, polite and very welcoming.

I wish we had read the reviews on this establishment before we booked a table for our Sunday Lunch.

Came to the tavern for Father’s Day lunch so we were expecting busy and bustling. We booked in advance and were seated in the small side room restaurant area ( which opens out to the beer garden). Atmosphere was lovely, food was hot delicious and abundant, and the hostess/landlady offered a wonderful personal touch. She even encouraged us to come regularly with our kids (it is our local but worry about kids in pubs) but she said they would be welcome anytime. Very kind indeed!! We will be back soon!!

This Was The First time I Ever Been In This Pub. The Food Was Delicious And Hot And Was A Great Portion Size. The Staff Were Very Friendly. The Only Problem Was The Tables Are Far To Close Tigether So It Felt You Were Sat Ontop Of The Tables next Too You. Apart From That A Lovely Evening.

Had a fabulous Sunday lunch at this cosy tavern I had roast lamb and partner had beef absolutely gorgeous,washed down with glass of pino,also had the pudding very nice strawberry cheesecake and tiramisu with cream,would Def go back staff and landlady very attentive and good prices whats not to like

Myself and my friends like to meet her for our catch up. The starter of potato skins was well done and tasty as wa the fish main course. I am not sue the food was piping hot. They do teatime specials which are good value. Friendly service. Will probably be back

If you have all the time in the world this is the place to be service was very poor so slow. I asked for the bill when ordering desserts the bill came before the desserts would not recommend.

Wanted to treat the misses to a steak dinner so asked for local reccommendations - all said The Norton Tavern - they werent wrong! The food was amazing and the welcome you get from Karen and her staff neans we will be back regularly

Great afternoon tea on Saturday afternoon visited with hubby n dog after a long walk totally shattered and looking forward to our tea can honestly say we weren’t disappointed, lovely staff who brought a welcome bowl of water for our dog without us even asking for it!! That’s called service!!

Having been several times in the past we decided to return while in the area.

Visited this establishment on a spur of the moment after visiting the area. It came reccommed by a friend. Lovely pub with nice interior. Good menu. Food prepared quickly and presented nicely (although not sure about the wooden boards for grill items). Food wasnt hot hot and could of been served a lot hotter. As it had cooled quickly didnt make it as enjoyable as it should of been. If back in the area i would give it a go again. Second chances and all that. Staff were very pleasent which is an asset to any business.

Five of us went for mothers day tea last night. It's the first time we have been since new management took over. The staff were lovely good service and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. Will definitely be going back.

We visited today as previously we had been very impressed with Sunday lunch, however it no way lived up to its expectations this time unfortunately.

Would recommend the food here not a bad word can be said. Staff are all lovely too. Sunday lunch is spot on too.

Lovely home made lasagne and my boyfriend has a southern fried burger, his comments were: “that was extraordinary”

Went here for afternoon tea with family for belated birthday treat.Didn't know what to expect,turned out to be fantastic.Excellent vaĺue and can recommend to all,it was afternoon tea nicely served and plenty to eat.welldone

I booked a table for 6 adults and 2 children, to celebrate mine and my Mum’s belated birthdays. This establishment was recommended by a friend for afternoon tea, and we weren’t disappointed. The children both ordered burger & chips from the children’s menu - lovely homemade burgers arrived with chips & sweet corn, and they were even treated twice cream for dessert, all for £4.95. The afternoon tea was wonderful. Rounds of ham, egg, prawn and cheese savoury sandwiches arrived on traditional afternoon tea stands, along with plenty of quiche. The “sweet” stand contained fruit scones, cream sponge, cream meringues, rocky road and cheesecake. All washed down with lots of tea, and served on vintage crockery, there was nothing to dislike (although my brother is fussy and ordered the gammon instead which arrived as a huge portion and just meant there was more cake for the rest of us!)

I've had bit of a dull Christmas and work had been an hectic day. I didn't have much in, so I thought I'd go here, to the Norton Tavern. I was hoping they had one of their super roast dinners on, but that must just be on Sundays. However, I ended up having a half palmo, with salad, garlic sauce and superb 'handmand' chips. I also had a nice pint of Bass to wash it down with. Tell you what. I could of happily had sat there supping for some more. It's a lovely pub that still boasts its general features. Great food and good service. Recommend the visit anytime.

Had a lovely meal and a few drinks with our friends for New Year. We ate at around 1pm and left after a good few hours. We really enjoyed the food , the atmosphere and the company. We have agreed to meet up more regularly for Sunday lunch there as its so relaxing and the staff are all fab.

Warm welcome .. generous portions.. well cooked food and 9 empty plates, full time.. all had a lovely relaxing lunch.

My husband and I visited The Norton Tavern for the first time this evening and we definately recommend a visit. The service was fantastic, really friendly server, came straight over to take our drinks order. Atmosphere was quiet and pleasant. Food was cooked to perfection, very delicious. My husband enjoyed the King Prawn Tails starter followed by a chicken parmo & I had the Tandoori chicken followed by 10oz rib eye steak. Amazing. Portions large. With 3 cokes tthe bill came to approx £50 which we felt was extremely reasonable given the quality of food we were served. We will certainly be returning! A*

We brought my father and his partner here yesterday for a light lunch and I must say it was excellent. We all had something off the lite bite menu and I must say for a lite bite it was more than enough. The chunky chips were amazing with a nice little side salad, I had hunters chicken in a ciabatta and thought it was very tasty. Everyone else thoroughly enjoyed their meals too.The staff was very welcoming and nothing too much trouble. Thank you we will be returning

Not a good experience at all. Popped in for a quick bite to eat, however the young man who took our order was polite but unsure of the menu. Food was plentiful, however poor cheap quality, I guess the landlady had a bad cold as all she did was to cough all the way though our meal. Very off-putting. A man appeared to ask us "was the food ok for you" as we left most of our food it was very obvious it wasn't, we assumed he was the chef, however we were appalled by the filthy state of his chefs outfit. We didn't wish to say anything about our experience but in hindsight we wished we did. Rest assured we will Not return or recommend this pub to any one of our friends...

Myself and husband have been to the tavern a couple of times and realty enjoyed our meals, so we suggested here for when we had family visiting from Australia. Ten of us altogether and a baby, booked in for 5pm, the staff showed us to our seats and left us to have a little catch up before coming to take our orders. All the food came out piping hot and everybody enjoyed what they had chosen. All staff are so friendly and Karen is a lovely landlady who makes you feel so welcoming. I’m so glad I chose the Tavern as there is nothing worse than choosing somewhere and it being a let down. Top of my list always!

We came in with family after been recommended here by one of our friends. On arrival we noticed the bar man drinking a pint behind the bar which we thought was very unprofessional.. we were seated and not given any menus and had to get up to order our own drinks. Once our food was ordered it came very quickly however the food was cold and not very enjoyable. There wasn’t many customers in so this is no excuse. The bar man seemed to busy on his phone and drinking his pint to keep an eye on us when we couldn’t grab his attention. Willing to come back and try here again as we’re disappointed it wasn’t how we were told. Hopefully this was just a one off.

Booked afternoon tea for 19 as a surprise baby shower and it was fabulous. We went in an hour early to decorate and the food was absolutely delicious I highly recommend and will return

I went for afternoon tea with my friend - all i can say it was amazing - lovely sandwiches - gorgeous quiche and the cakes were fantastic - there was so much food and all for £10pp -will definitely be going back :-) <3

Very disappointing visit. Food was lovely, however the service was much to be desired. We arrived and sat down, with drinks order taken promptly. A couple of ladies sat next to us not long after we arrived and were offered the specials menu which we were not. The waiter came and asked the couple next to us if they were ready to order, to which i asked if we had to go up to order. He proceeded to take their order before our own. Two starters of soup arrived about 10 mins later swiftly followed by the couples meals. We then had to wait at least 20 minutes for someone to realise we had finished our starters, whilst the staff seemed too busy with the coffee machine to notice we were done. There was a table of 5 ladies in at the same time who seemed to be getting all the service. Our meals arrived shortly after our starters were taken away, which is not surprising since they would then only know that we had finished. I ordered the stilton and leek chicken which was lovely, however there was nothing much 'stiltony' about the sauce my chicken was swimming in...it tasted more like the cheese sauce my mam used to make out of a packet. It was served in a round bowl, and then my chips came separately...along with a salad. I wasn't given an option when ordering if i wanted salad or vegetables and didn't know this was an option until i seen someone else being served veg. To me it seems logical to serve vegetables with a hot meal thats served with a hot sauce...i had no where to put my salad or any way to enjoy it with the main part of my meal. My nana ordered the scampi, however it was missing that tartar sauce it said it was served with however we had waited that long for our main meals that we couldn't be bothered to waste more time trying to catch the attention of the staff. Like i said the food was lovely, however i was more disappointed with the service we received. Its a local place for my grandparents to get out too for some lunch or tea, however they've tried this place several times over the years and have always left disappointed. Such a shame.

I have already submitted a review, but I have just read the blue or not blue review and what a load of rubbish. Firstly the drink, the caramel tones will have been in the gin not the mixed drink, how the hell do you want them to garnish your gin and tonic with caramel did you expect a caramac in it. Your steak how can a blue steak be warm it is literally flashed on both sides so it will never be warm, what you will experience is a steak should be at room temperature before cooking, but a blue steak will never be warm and finally no way on god's earth can you See the chef. I am a local to the tavern and know the layout like the back of my hand the door to the kitchen is beyond and round the corner from the door from the pub. If you could see the chef you want to get yourself on Britain's got talent for seeing around corners. So with this lie in mind I am unable to believe any of the other points you have raised. This pub is fantastic the staff are always welcoming and we eat there quite regularly and have never had a bad experience keep it up guys

What can I show food excellent staff very friendly and accommodating Karen land lady very friendly excellent night great reunion 5 stars

Our party of eight visited here lastnight for our monthly get together. We choose a different place to eat each month. I booked The Norton Tavern last month. From that first initial phone call, everything was perfect. When we walked through the door we were shown straight to our table, our drinks were brought over to us, the table was already prepared and menus ready for us to look at. Our every need was attended to. The waitress was charming, nothing was too much trouble. The Landlady was delightful and full of fun. What a great atmosphere! We had to wait for our food, but it was well worth the wait. Absolutely delicious. Everyone in our party very impressed indeed. The prices are reasonable, good value for money. The portion sizes are very generous and there are no hidden charges for vegetables, chips or salad. This place is a little gem. We will be back again.

What can I say, we had high hopes for this place with alot of good reviews, was told to booked as can get pretty busy so booked for.7.30.On arrival was asked if we had booked, ordered our drinks at bar and was shown to our table our drinks was them brought over.. Menu is good select typical pub menu which is great hate massive menus that take you ages to look through, best thing about this pub was where we was sitting there was no TV with poxy football on..The Mrs has started to like these new gin drinks, so she ordered a drink with rhubarb, once she got her drink she tasted it not a hint of rhubarb or caramel or almond just lemon and lime chunks, I took it back and was told it was correct but they didn't have the correct ingredients to make it so thought it was ok to make anything.. Ordered different drink which they couldn't mess up.After that episode we received our food both ordered steak mine was blue Mrs was medium rare, looked really nice I took a bite and I know how blue steak is suppose to be this was stone cold. I complained and my food was taken back to kitchen I could see the kitchen and watched the chef touch my food and see he wasn't happy, I'm guessing it was the owner who brought my food back she then proceeded to educate me in a very condicending manner, I explained I'm not daft and know how blue steak is ment to be room temperature not freezing cold, she then stood over me while tasted my food ummmm.... By this time I was ready to pay bill and leave another member of staff was very polite and offered us a free desert I didn't want any but the Mrs had one she said it was ok but tasted abit bland...The Mrs steak was ok and she enjoyed hers..All in all the pub is very pleasant and maybe on another occasion the food would be spot on but this time it was pretty awful well mine was any..If you don't have something just say makes things so much easier as for the the manage/owner whoever she was she needs brush up on her people skills to stand and dictate to a customer and then Stand over them while they are eating is a disgrace..Such a shame as reviews suggested this place was very good on this occasion it wasn't but there ya go but was enough for us not to return...Catch ya later

Went here for a birthday meal. We booked for 6 pm and we were shown to a table for 2. This table was so close to the next table that we could hear every word of their conversation.We ordered our meals, a lamb shank and a sirloin steak. The waitress was very friendly and efficient.Our meals arrived quite quickly. We couldn't believe how many chips I had in my side dish and how many vegetables were a side dish for the lamb shank.Both meals were very tasty and well cooked.I would recommend having a meal here, especially if you are very hungry.Booking seems to be required to secure a table.

Lovely little pub gorgeous home cooked food An it's dog friendly also has a lovely little beer garden! Plus a good selection of Gins....perfect

A big thank you to landlady Karen and her staff for a delicious afternoon tea to celebrate my mother in laws 99th birthday. You made her day special. Very highly recommended.Karen with Marie 99 years old.

The food is lovely, but the portions can be a little on the small size, the fish pie especially. We were surprised that the meal didn't come with vegetables. The staff were friendly but a little phased out, maybe it was the end of a long shift. Having said all that we will be returning for a meal very soon.

Called in after the good reviews. The staff are really friendly and the beer garden is great. The food was typical nice pub grub.

Well worth a visit, varied menu of delicious home cooked foods. Staff welcoming and friendly, beer garden well maintained and welcome's dogs
