Went on a Thursday for a meal. Got a sirloin steak from the grill menu. Cooked to perfection for £12.95. If you can find better value than that i don't know where it would be. Beer was good. Staff were lovely. Finished with a chocolate fudge cake then had to loosen my belt before walking out. Thank you very much guys!

Fabulous Sunday lunch We have just arrived back from Sunday lunch with our family. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly, it was our first visit and it certainly didn't disappoint. All the meat was of top quality and very tender, there was a vast variety of vegetables. It was up there with the best carvery that we gave had. Tracey what can I say, God bless you darling.

Very friendly pub, excellent service by all the staff and the food was delicious. My husband had sea bass with prawn and lemon sauce off the specials board and said it was one of the best he had had anywhere, I had scampi off the ordinary menu and it was proper whole tail scampi and cooked it perfection. We will definitely be going again. Thank you to all the staff.

We decided to go for a drive out and landed at the Pig in Muck. I also know it’s really hot & sunny but we ended up having the carvery. Four big slices of meat - choice of six - plus homemade Yorkshire puddings, and lots of veg. Loved it absolutely loved it. Really friendly people who run it. Definitely recommend.

A warm friendly welcome and great value for Wednesday lunchtime carvery (£9.50). Can't fault the food, the service, the banter, or the price. Having paid over £9 yesterday for 250ml sauvignon blanc (at Pesto@Axe & compass in Silver), here it was £6 and a much better wine. Will probably become a Wednesday regular.

What an absolute gem of a pub! Recommended by friends, Sunday lunch is a carvery and it’s one of the best if not the best in the area! Fantastic flavours, amazing roasties, lovely crisp fluffy Yorkshire puddings and amazing cauliflower cheese! Great staff and really easy to enjoy a great Sunday lunch. If you’re in the area, then get it on your list for a great Sunday carvery!

Just randomly popped in on Friday evening around 9.10pm for a cheeky drink on the way home from a long day. As soon as we walked through the door we were greeted with the voice of a lady saying that she hoped we werent after food to which we replied with no, just a drink. She then replied with that they will be closing around half 9/10pm which was fine. Then at the bar, I asked for rum which they did not have any at all, my husband asked for one of the pubs beer/ale which was not on. The lady that was serving us then said, don't feel like you have to stay, you can go and get a drink somewhere else if you want. I was really shocked at this statement so I said to my husband that we will go somewhere else. We did not feel very welcome at all and overall I found that each person that interacted with us was rude.

The food was pretty good, the portions for the meat and the service were lovely. I thought the pricing was a bit steep but this is almost a self serve so I can imagine some people have big portions of the add on items. The staff were super welcoming, I didn't realise you could have a mix of meats until someone who has been there did it!

Once again a tasty, beautifully cooked roast lunch with a fab array of veg served by happy people at a reasonable price. The roast lamb was so tender and the array of home cooked veg - including roasted Mediterranean veg - was as always delicious. It's a carvery so you choose what you want from a grand selection. Puddings include Bakewell tart, Spotted Dick and Bread & Butter Pudding. Who could ask for more! We'll be back. We'll be back soon.

I've been coming here on and off to the Pig with my father-in-law for around 8 years. I love walking in those doors because I am always greeted with laughter and smiles. The homemade draughts are great. I highly recommend a pint of Best. In the winter, the fire is on and it is just great. Pop in. You won't regret it.

No need for luck - try The Pig in Muck .. A warm sunny Saturday.. and this pub looked very inviting. We were not at all disappointed. We parked up (they have a free car park..) and walked in, and when we did we received a very warm welcome. The owners Tracey & Kevin were keen to say hello, and they advised regarding some local beers as well as what food was available.. we ordered a couple of meals, as well as desserts.. all of which was lovely.. the fish and chips and the chocolate fudge cake especially so .. We found everyone helpful, and other customers were polite and clearly some of them were locals who came there often. We saw their Sunday lunch advert, and thought we are trying that as well.. we came back the following afternoon. The Sunday lunch was quite simply, awesome. Tasty meats, lots of choice, and of course lots of vegetables, roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings.. and lovely gravy… one of the nicest Sunday pub lunches we have ever eaten.. and we’ve tried a few ! In summary… WE SUGGEST YOU VISIT THIS LOVELY BRITISH PUB .. !! You will we believe enjoy the atmosphere, the owners being friendly; and obviously the range of tasty food and the drink.. Thanks Tracey & Kev… we hope to be back up sooner rather than later .. E & P x

Although we don’t go out for a meal very often when we do we go to The Pig. The landlady always greets you like you go in every day which immediately makes you feel really welcome. We were a party of eight and were accommodated on the same table, the food was as always delicious and good portion sizes. Would definitely recommend the beer, and also the rhubarb gin. Look forward to our next visit.

We decided to go for Sunday lunch and try the carvery. Initially we were given a warm welcome and the young waitress who served us was very friendly and attentive. However, the food was extremely disappointing and below average. All the meats served were fatty, tough and lukewarm. The vegetables were hard and the Yorkshire puddings burnt. We complained to the manageress who said she would change her supplier but then proceeded to belittle us by asking all customers around us if they had enjoyed their meal implying we were making a fuss. No compensation was offered and needless to say we will not be going there again.

Initially when first entering the pub, we were given a warm welcome and the young waitress who served us was very friendly and attentive. However the Sunday carvery was below average, all meats were fatty and tough, the vegetables had barely seen a boiling pan of water and the Yorkshire pudding was burnt. When asked by the manager how our meals were, we very politely said the meat selection was tough. She said she would change their butcher suppliers and then proceeded to ask all surrounding tables around us if they enjoyed their meals to belittle and embarrass us, trying to make out that our feedback wasn't justified. No compensation was offered.

We booked for Sunday carvery. As they were busy all they could offer us was a table upstairs. We took this. On arrival we were shown to it. A few minutes later the Landlady appeared and said she had arranged a table for us downstairs. This was very considerate of her as we are old and the stairs would not have been easy. We did hear the staff offering to help others. The customers seem to be local people. Families of various ages. The staff were pleasant and efficient. The Pub is very well run, the owners are very visible and missed nothing but at the same time cheerful and chatty with the customers. Oh! and the food was very good.

We visited for Sunday lunch on 15th December. We have lived in the area for 16 years and not visited before. We found it difficult to find the entrance as we had arrived by uber but it’s round the back alongside the car park. I have a problem with bench seating but was offered a chair if necessary. However I managed. The young staff were amazing. So polite and friendly and knowledgeable. Not put off by the fact that we were dressed up in Christmas outfits!! The crab starter was amazing as was the lamb main course. We were with friends one of whom was able to taste a red wine before ordering and the origin was explained to her. A hidden gem.

Stayed here overnight, the room was beautiful and spotless ditto bathroom. We opted to eat in the restaurant and the food was delicious and plentiful, it’s probably the best vegetarian lasagne I’ve eaten, there was a good choice for vegetarians , my husband really enjoyed the gammon. We were both so full we couldn’t manage a pudding. The bar was really busy but we couldn’t hear a word from our room. I slept for nearly 9 hours which is rare for me. The staff were attentive but not overbearing, they are certainly an asset to the business that’s for certain. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back.
