The Peppered Pig in Doncaster

First time here and first impressions were what a lovely place. 10 of us for a family Birthday meal. We had already pre orderd our meals. Some of our party had already arrived before we got there and had ordered their drinks. Waitress came over straight away to take our drinks order but we weren't ready so asked for a coupe of minutes, 15 went by and we still hadn't ordered our drinks and it wasn't that busy, so my husband went to the bar. While he was at the bar our food came. 10 minutes at the bar and we finally had our drinks. Most of our food was nice, some average and the fish and chips were what can I say well done and dry (wish I had said something) the batter didn't taste nice at all. We waited an age to be asked if we wanted any deserts. Five of us got desserts and at £9 each was pretty expensive. The more mature waitress was lovely. Overall, nice place, expensive, slow service, probably wouldn't go again due to cost.

Four of us had an absolutely delicious Sunday lunch here. We all had roasts and said we wanted a return visit asap and that the dessert with Yorkshire Parkin and liquorice ice cream was worth an award! Would highly recommend this place for Sunday lunch. We were told we'd have to leave the table after two hours which was fine although we waited 25/30 minutes for our dessert so, not surprisingly we stayed over that time. The staff were lovely during the whole course of our visit.

A friend and I called in here for lunch while on a canal trip. We sat outside as the weather was so good (and I had my dog with me). We had a vegan option of sausage with bubble and squeak. The food was hot, well-cooked and very tasty. The staff were friendly and attentive. I definitely recommend this restaurant.

We booked a table of 10 + kids for Sunday lunch, to celebrate our kids being baptised earlier in the day. We arrived about an hour earlier than planned but the staff were amazing and welcoming, it was cozy and comfortable in the lounge areas. We also had some last minute changes to the pre-order & extra people that came on the day, but the staff dealt with this perfectly and everything was spot on - despite the usual chaos my family brings! Most of us had 3 courses, the food was incredible and there was no waiting time between courses - it was a flawless service. We will definitely be back (and we promise not to be quite as chaotic!) 10/10

Myself and my daughter arrived for breakfast, we walked in there was no staff to be seen, stood for a while near the bar area a few staff passed us, didn't even acknowledge us so we grabbed a seat and waited to be served. 10 minutes later still no acknowledgement so I went up to the till area and asked how we order do we order from counter or does someone come to us, lady on counter asked if we had a booking, I said no, no one had come to us so we just took the nearest table, she moved us onto another table which was fine. We then received menus and waited another 20 minutes or so for someone to take our order in the end we had to ask one of the staff passing as we were just going to get up and leave, she took the order and our hot drinks came around 10 minutes later. Then the food came in about another 20 minutes by this time we had drank our hot drinks. I have not experienced such bad customer service in many years and will definitely not be back.

Sweet little spot serving breakfast through dinner. Food was great - tasty & well presented, with a good range of wines to accompany. Our visit was for lunch & there’s a full offer of cooked main course dishes, in addition to lighter bites, or…. just come for cake - they looked absolutely epic! Service was delightful - warm & down to earth. And they have rooms too.

Outstanding. Friendly, helpful staff, excellent tasty food (wide range of interesting options) and drink (decent real ale). Pleasant, clean premises. Reasonable prices. Very good indeed. Looking forward to returning.

Lovely setting with great views of the countryside. Service great, quick and friendly. Breakfasts delicious, great quality food.

Parked right outside door to make it easy for my husband walking in.We havent been since last year, when we were sat outside in the sun looking out onto lovely fields.My husband steak pie was lovely & my salmon fishcake with salad also very nice.Puddings so tasty we will 100% return

The restaurant is clean and smart, the menu was great and for those of us who need gluten free options, there was a good choice to choose from. The fish and chips were lovely, and the portion was huge. The GF brownie was moist inside with the perfect crunch. Breakfast GF options are also available if you stay over, the scrambled eggs are freshly made and super creamy. The only suggestion for improvement is to look at stocking some of the local Yorkshire beers, that happen to be gluten free (rather than imported GF Peroni), for example from World Top Brewery or Hambleton Brewery - the stuff that everyone would drink, so there's no risk of it going off, but us GF folk can also enjoy. The bedroom was really spacious, good sized desk for doing some work, very comfortable king sized bed, and I even had a roll top bath in the bedroom. The missus would have been in heaven. The big walk in rain shower was great in the morning too. I love personalised and friendly customer service too, credit to the team here. Next time my work projects bring me down to this part of the world, the Pig Inn will be my first choice to stay again.

Went for my brothers birthday a few months ago. The food was average, I have gone to this place several times over the years and I am never hugely blown away with the meals. They tend to look nice but lack taste and texture.

Absolutely beautiful afternoon tea - excellent service and lovely attentive staff. Thankyou from Vicky and Megan 😍🌲

Had a lovely evening meal. Place has a good atmosphere and the staff were excellent. The food was brilliant, really tasty. My only criticism is the seating. The chairs have lost all padding and are very uncomfortable. Please sort this out as it spoils the evening.

Great service. Delicious food. Beautiful setting. A regular visitor, this place never let's me down.

We were a table of 7 with a mix of adults and children. Pros; Great menu with a variety of food Excellent food quality, which was well cooked - clearly some good chefs behind the scenes. Lovely wine menu Nicely decorated restaurant Cons; A couple of the waitresses were clueless what was on the menu (didn’t know the soup or the fish) The sound system was terrible; would have preferred no music.

The Peppered Pig recently hosted a 21st birthday meal for our son. The Bridge Room was the perfect venue, lovely private entrance and bar providing exactly the right setting. Nothing was too much trouble for Debbie and her fantastic team, with Davina looking after us on the night. Great service and food, so many guests commenting on how good it was. A couple of guests stayed over and were so impressed with their rooms and breakfast …. First class. Can not recommend the Peppered Pig highly enough - thank you

Nice little spot catering for families and couples a like New menu when we got there so could do with some refining but still a great meal

Celebrating a family birthday From the welcome to the goodbye the service was excellent A delightful private room very comfortable and relaxing Food and service excellent Staff pleasant and friendly This all made the evening most enjoyable

The staff were over familiar with regular customers - sharing phone photos, laughing loudly and making everyone else feel uncomfortable. 1 lady staff member, with a tee towel draped over her shoulder even sat on a comfy chair in the bar, chatting to 2 regulars. Another 2 women staff were shouting across the restaurant to each other, talking over us. They were so loud we left and chatted in our car! We were 3 adults on a Monday evening. It was such a shame as the food was delicious & beautifully presented.

Food is always good - not amazing but ok for a developed out of something small and unique to a bigger concern. They have lost one of the next most important aspects of a restaurant and that of service. Shocking: we arrived mid Sunday morning for brunch- 3 ladies who ignored us while they finished their chat and it went on from there - one lovely young lady who smiled and wanted to help - the others were indifferent to the point of asking for sugar was an inconvenience- some grubby uniforms but we will go back cos it’s just down the road and the staff change frequently so here’s hoping the HR are better form next time.

Had a lovely meal at the peppered pig. Food was lovely, staff friendly and attentive and the restaurant has a real relaxing Atmosphere. Will definitely be back

Both me and my partner really enjoyed a relaxed evening with a great meal the bistro cut steak was 👌🏽 See you again soon

Excellent food, staff and atmosphere. The menu is very good with a twist on classics. Extensive drinks menu and a lovely place to visit .

Planned my sister's 30th Birthday lunch with family here at the beginning of September. The process of it all was very smooth and all staff were friendly and helpful. One lady in particular on the day was so helpful, attentive and just so friendly. Josie made the day so much more special with how friendly and caring she was of everyone there. Definitely make sure Josie is working when you go! The food was gorgeous, well seasoned and looked so professional. Thanks for a great experience!

As we had arrived early we ordered coffees and sat outside in a very beautiful and relaxing space . Now to the rest ! Waited for at least an hour for food to arrive , meagre portions! I had duck which was quite bland overcooked ,and a small bowl salad and if I wanted an extra portion that would cost extra ! So to sum it all ! Unprofessional service ! Food maybe cooked by a novice. Overpriced. Won’t be going again ! Maybe we came wrong time as it was lunchtime . I would have left after having coffee which I had to sent back because it was tepid and lukewarm if I had been alone .

Fantastic place for food and relaxing. Eaten here several times over the years and never been disappointed. Great food, fantastic service, beautiful setting.

We went for a meal for two on Saturday evening (29th July). We live local, but hadn't been before so we thought we'd give it a try. Lovely venue. We both ordered the steak burger with pulled pork. Took a while coming and when it did it was very dry. So dry I had to ask for sauce half way through as we were having trouble swallowing it. Decided to give dessert a chance, we both opted for the treacle tart...the waitress returned to tell us there was no treacle tart, or peaches. So out of a choice of 5 desserts we now had 3. I had a dark chocolate roulade, and was rather underwhelmed by it (especially for £8). Service was poor and slow - asked for the bill and she ignored our request, we had to get up to pay. Overpriced, poor service, and the burger is still lodged somewhere in my chest. Won't be going back.

From its stunning decor, the friendliest service and pure quality of dishes it’s my favourite place of the North! Do not miss an opportunity to visit this hidden gem x

We have been to the peppered pig before and it was lovely today not as good. I.looked on line and there was chicken on the menu but just beef and pork for the Sunday dinner mains. My husband's beef was lovely but my pork cut into thick slices and tough and fatty. The Yorkshire pudding not good but the veg and gravy lovely. The family we were with all had fish n chips which were superb. Not a bad experience but not the best. Anne walker

Authentique place, very nice room, in the countryside I will certainly stay here another time Hosts are very friendly Breakfast is also very good. I didn 't try the restaurant for diner, but certainly next time.

Great place to stay. Room was great! Looked beautiful outside. We checked in, room wasn’t available as we didn’t request an early check in, however they was very accommodating with us, we got changed downstairs and the lady (can’t remember her name) she steamed my...

Meant to be a special treat for my birthday, we visit the restaurant occasionally but this time it was a huge disappointment. The place begins to look grubby and uncared for, the service was nearly enough non existent, we ordered drinks, waited and waited, then...

Oh where to begin? I had an email from The Peppered Pig which confirmed my booking of afternoon tea. The validity of the email and even it's existence failed to be acknowledged. Well anyway, we thought that lunch at The Peppered Pig was a bit...

We booked this usually good (if expensive) restaurant for a 2 x ruby wedding treat for us and 2 friends. The menu was very limited with virtually all the meals requiring additional potatoes and veg at extra cost. The restaurant now seems to suffer from...

The food was lovely, however the staff require more training. Water glasses were removed before we had the opportunity to look at the dessert menu. One of our party ordered haddock and chips and requested tartar sauce, but surprisingly they didn't have any .Nice atmosphere...

The food was fantastic but unfortunately one member of staff were absolutely appalling. Wrong main course came and she made out as if it was our mistake and walked off. Felt very uncomfortable and couldn’t wait to leave.

Very poor vegetarian options for Sunday lunch. Literally get the Sunday roast minus the meat. We obviously don't need protein! The vegetables were salty and the cauliflower cheese we paid extra for, was vile and watery.

An incredibly disappointing Sunday lunch especially for the vegetarians in our group. Their vegetarian option was a meatless roast which turned out to be a plate of uninspiring oversalted veg.Not an iota of protein in sight. Foolishly we expected a nut roast of some sort....

Booked for afternoon tea for partners Birthday.. Beautiful place but unfortunately wasn't the best afternoon tea experience .. We were shown to our table and the food arrived .. presented very nice but sandwiches very dry & poor selection and quantity . Equivalent to 3...

Food was amazing and people. However considering that when we booked and mentioned a SEVERE NUT Allergy and been in contact with 3 times about it when the staff have rang us asking about the allergy. Been seated down and asked again when staff changed...

Dined in the restaurant whilst staying in The Pig Inn. The food was absolutely delicious both in the evening and at breakfast. Fantastic service and a great espresso martini too! We really enjoyed our evening here.

Had a lovely day here yesterday at a friend's wedding. The staff were absolutely fantastic, very helpful and friendly. The food served was absolutely gorgeous and good time was had by all. Great venue and facilities. I haven't given 5 stars only because I have...

Birthday meal with family. All had fish and chips. Fish was nice but “twice cooked chips” were stale, many were green and just not good. I ate my fish but put family off theirs so didn’t finish their meals. Beautiful environment and surroundings but appears...

Came for afternoon tea, prebooked and prepayed for as an early Mother’s Day treat for my mum. There was myself, my mum and my daughter. I have been before for afternoon but pre covid… and sadly it was much better that time. Weren’t an overly...

We went for a large family meal to celebrate a birthday. Pork T-Bone sounded lovely and for £18 we expected a large plate full. However it was tiny, over cooked and dry. Not worth £18 and not pleasant to eat. The fat wasn’t rendered properly...

Review Very limited vegan or vegetarian options available. As I am pescatarian I was able to order the fish & chips. I did ask if there were any other veggie options to be offered mushroom stroganoff, which wasn’t on the menu and no Sunday lunch...

Give praise where praise is due! Excellent through and through. Stayed here with family at a surprise 60th wedding anniversary party. The staff were FANTASTIC as was the accommodation, food and facilities Thank you for making this such an eventful stay. Well done Would recommend...

We stayed in the house next to the Peppered pig for a friend’s birthday and the staff couldn’t have done more to make us feel welcome. Matron was class and the chef (Jake we think?) was exceptional. The best fish cake I’ve ever tasted!!! Lovely...

Just to say last night meal was outstanding! Thank you for making our evening memorable, mum and dad were so surprised to see everyone celebrating there 50th Wedding Anniversary... All staff last night were just fantastic and could not do any more for us.. so...

First visit today. We both had the full English. Had to pay extra for hash browns. The quality was top notch. Lovely surroundings, and lovely staff. We had 3 coffees each. The bill for two of us was £37:00. Quite pricey, but we'll worth it....

The first time we've been to the peppered pig but it won't be our last will definitely be back. The place is beautiful lovely setting with fairy lights on the ceiling. The staff were very helpful.and polite. We were served quite quickly and the food...

I visited here today for the second time. Both times the staff have been really lovely - made us feel relaxed, never a feeling of being rushed even though it took me too long to make an order because each time they came I had...

I booked here after rummaging around on Google Maps to find a different dinner venue with my best friend. The website and menu looked good, so we gave a try. Not in the least disappointed. Waiting staff were attentive but unobtrusive. Tge food was exquisite...

The Peppered Pig We’ve had a couple of visits towards the end of 2022 with friends to this lovely rural restaurant. It’s a great place with friendly staff and good food. The restaurant is open with lots of light and windows giving an inside/outside feeling....

We booked a table for dinner here as we were staying in the Pig Inn. We were visiting my Uncle and had come from France, really looking forward to a good English dinner. The menu was good and obviously well thought out. The starters were...

Booked for a nice family breakfast, but unfortunately, we had a very disappointing experience. The Full English can only be described as pretty miserable. 2 slices of bacon, 1 sausage, 1 slice of toast, I mushroom, half a tomato and a micro small pot of...

Very disappointed . I rang and booked and asked if they were doing Christmas dinner to which they said they were. On arriving no Christmas dinner and a very poor menu. Orderd steak pie to then be told they had none left . All in...

Took mum yesterday for Sunday. Having seen some of the reviews I was a little worried. I didn't need to worry. The venue is beautiful clean the staff were perfect and the food was better than excellent. Thank you to all the staff. I've just...

My husband and I booked a table here on the spur of the moment and had a lovely evening. There was a warm welcome and we were shown to our table. The menu isn’t huge, but we made our choices. We both had the steak...

We went to our son's wedding at The Peppered Pig and we could not fault anything all was perfect from the staff to the meal, it was that nice we went the next day for a lunchtime meal and that was all perfect and we...

Really disappointed. Booked a table for my husbands birthday at 12 o’clock. Travelled over to be greeted with ‘were you told it’s only the brunch’ menu today. Nope! If I wanted a breakfast I would’ve booked for breakfast and not travelled 30 mins to get...

Beautiful local hotel with great staff and beautiful clean room. Fantastic food with an amazing selection of sweet treats. What really makes this place special is the staff they are welcoming and so friendly. This is a great place to stay

Love our little local restaurant me and my mum love fish Fridays here with a bottle of pink Prosecco

My husband and I called in and had a late lunch. Wow, fantastic food, service and staff. We'll definitely be calling in again XX.

Lovely first time visit to the pig inn with my life long friend for a catch up. Able to sit outside in the perfect weather with lovely views over the cornfield. Very relaxed atmosphere with friendly service. The food was delicious and a great choice...

We celebrated the 80th 😱 birthday of my father. I wanted to give them a mention following some ‘not so nice’ reviews I read on tripadvisor. We were a demanding table of 14 and it was 29degrees outside. Both my husband and I had a...

Went for lunch with a friend. We didn't book it was an off the cuff decision. I thought the lunch menu was quite limited and overly expensive. I ordered the homemade fish fingers in bloomer. I was, disappointed to say the least. No side salad...

Had lunch - 3 adults and 2 young children. We had eaten there last year on several occasions and had always enjoyed the meals. This time we were disappointed. The fries supplied with the burger were not as described as had no truffle oil added....

Very limited menu, two choices of roast, second sitting, one choice. Nice setting but food needs massive improvement to match surrounding venues, didn’t think value for money , left feeling hungry

Visited with the other half. Saturday night. Busy but service quick and efficient. Steak for my other half. 'Fish pie' for me. Flavours and presentation amazing. Portion size just right. Finished off with cheesecake. Staff were professional, friendly and pleasant. Ambience great. Can't wait to...

Eleven of us for lunch. The service was impeccable. The setting was amazing. The menu was delicious. Oh and the banter was on point. Nothing to dislike or moan about here. Well done everyone. Thoroughly enjoyed by all. Thank you.

My wife treated me to a birthday lunch at this venue - and I was looking forward to it, as I heard good feedback. Unfortunately, the food on offer was hit and miss. The front of house wasn't all that great either. I know about...

We went for brunch at The Pig Inn (as it’s now called) today. We ordered the Full Yorkshire which was swimming in olive oil - who wants a fried egg floating in a green oil slick? . It wasn’t good at all. The portion sizes...

We celebrated my aunts 90th Birthday with dinner for 16 at the Peppered Pig and it was brilliant. The food was amazing and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The staff were amazing and so helpful and attentive. An excellent night

This was the second time we visited here, we visited with my parents and the food was amazing. If you like quality homemade food then you will not be disappointed. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be returning.

I have eaten here numerous times over the years, and it had been fantastic food every time. Sadly prices have stayed the same and the food was to say the least, mediocre. The first visit straight after lockdown was up to it’s usual standard, slightly...

Visited last night for an evening meal and catch-up with a good friend. Fantastic tasty food that was very filling and good value for money. The service was great and the staff were really friendly and helpful; making us feel really welcome from the moment...

Came here as a recommendation from a friend and have heard others talking highly of TPP. We arrived slightly early but was shown to our table, drinks were taken as soon as we were seated - probably a little too soon as didn’t have chance...

Excellent food & service! Afternoon tea for 4 was absolutely amazing. Couldn’t have been any better. Would highly recommend, and will definitely be back to try the regular menu, as the meals been served looked incredible. Lovely relaxed atmosphere, staff exceptional, attentive but not overpowering,...

Couldn’t have been better. Fantastic food, generous portions, lovely staff. Would recommend the beef carpaccio starter and the steak and ale pie especially. 10/10 highly recommend

Me and my partner stayed at the peppered pig for the night with a three course meal and breakfast the next morning as the peppered pig had a deal on where we got an overnight stay, 3 course meal and breakfast for 2 for £165!!...

Have wanted to book to eat here for ages so what better time than our wedding anniversary to finally visit. Over all the staff were lovely and the food was amazing. Unfortunately some of the meals listed on the very limited menu were not available....

Booked a meal for 4 on the way home from York races. The chairs were a little low for one of our party and one of the staff members, Eileen, was immediately on hand to provide a couple of cushions to sit on. Another of...

Stayed here 1 night as we cycled form Scotland to Norfolk. Arrived late afternoon on a Sunday having made a same day booking. Our twin share room wasn't ready so the manager on duty simply put us into two separate bedrooms for no additional cost....

Our favourite restaurant before lockdown proved very disappointing yesterday. A bowl of lettuce leaves tossed in Caesar sauce topped with half a boiled egg and a few croutons costing £12:95, was what I consider an expensive joke. Then a few slices of chicken increasing the...

Returning to one of our previous favourite restaurant prior to lock down . A surprise birthday meal arranged , 4 of the diners had travel a considerable distance and what a disappointment we had .Menu given and items on it nothing like the sample menu...

Had a friends get together as this had been recommended. Waited over an hour to get drinks after been told someone would be us shortly when arriving at 7pm as table was booked for 7.30. Went to the table at 7.45 at 8.30 had to...

Simple plate of savoury items with scones for afters. Lovely view with nice seating area outside. Didn’t book but just turned up and they accommodated us with a small selection of goodies. Overall very good 👍🏻

Ok food but for what we had it felt overpriced. Service ok, no one unpleasant but neither very welcoming. First outing in 18 months so felt a bit disappointing. Won't be rushing back. On a positive, the surroundings were very nice.

Went for breakfast. Had to wait a long time for anyone to come and seat us. Service slow all the way through. Restaurant not very clean- crumbs and dead flies noticeable on floor. Had to brush chair of crumbs before sitting down. Food delicious. Then...

From start to finish this little gem of a restaurant didn’t disappoint !! This was my first visit and it certainly won’t be my last . The welcome was warm and the service was perfect. The food was perfectly cooked by… clearly a top chef,...

Absolutely excellent cuisine. A while back now, but never-the-less, my memory of this establishment was of superbly excellent servings and the waitress service could not be better. They really made me feel at home. My wife got a tiny thing wrong with her order (no...

Hi this place is lovely shame it’s closed at the moment but the take away menu they have because of COVID is really varied and tasty.

We called in for lunch on route back to our holiday cottage. The restaurant itself looks lovely, nice decor inside and out. I ordered the belly pork which was very nice but quite a small portion for the price. My partner ordered the steak and...

Wouldn’t rush back, disappointed with the pie that had 1mm of pastry on the top. When is a pie not a pie? When it’s a casserole in disguise

This Tuesday 27th October ,Jeff and I decided to get married ,as everyone knows only 15 guest allowed ,but we have to say what a truly wonderful experience we had from the start of organising the wedding and up to the final good bye ,Debbie...

Monday lunch time meal. After looking at the menus I thought there had been a printing error. How can a restaurant in a small Yorkshire village charge £120 for a sharing fish platter for two people. The price is correct the waitress informed me. I...

Great place, great food and really lovely decor with comfortable seats inside and outdoors. Great Coffee and tea too!

We were staying away for few days and wanted someone for food. Just came across the peppered pig on google and we were pleasantly surprised. Fab steaks, excellent chicken for my daughter and the desserts were amazing! Service was on the slow side so wouldn't...

Very well organised re social distancing etc. Very pleasant staff who were all helpful and polite. Excellent menu with plenty of choice. The food was exceptional and beautifully presented. Attention to detail very good. Each course as good as each other.
